Four years ago, Wen Shu was set up and spent a wild night with a man.
Four years later, the man appeared... "You stole my treasure, and you still want to leave?"
You know what you're doing!
Wen Shu stared into his eyes, while Li Duo looked at her with a cold expression.
“Attending this banquet means we’ll have nothing to do with each other afterward, right?” she asked, out of distrust of Li Duo.
Li Duo replied, "Yes."
Wen Shu gripped the wheelchair's handle and went up the slope.
As she walked to the entrance of the hotel lobby, she looked up and saw Ma Jun dressed in a formal suit standing at the door.
The previous times I saw Ma Jun, she was always wearing a smart women's suit, looking both fashionable and capable. Suddenly, she put on a formal dress, which was a refreshing surprise.
Ma Jun greeted him with a beaming smile, "Oh dear, what happened to the once dashing and debonair President Li?"
Li Duo leaned back, his gaze falling on Ma Jun's face. "Everyone says that the eldest daughter of the Ma family has the body of a woman but the heart of a man. I've heard enough. Miss Ma is highly skilled and bold. I'd like to see how Miss Ma plans next."
Ma Jun reached out and brushed the stray hairs from his cheek back. "President Li, you flatter me. I've always been a person who sits upright, stands firm, and walks with integrity. Come on, if you dare."
She straightened up, and someone approached from behind, putting their arm around Ma Jun's waist. "What are you talking about with President Li?"
Long Xiaosheng appeared in front of Li Duo, looking at him in surprise, "Li Duo, what's wrong with you?"
Li Duo was stunned. He had come today to attend Long Xiaosheng's engagement banquet, but he never expected that Long Xiaosheng's fiancé would be Ma Jun!
No wonder Ma Jun dared to avenge Ma Biao; he's found a powerful backer!
Long Xiaosheng is Long Yin's uncle. He entered politics and showed outstanding talent for navigating the officialdom at a young age.
Later, thanks to the support of his father-in-law and mother-in-law, his career progressed smoothly, and he became the youngest second-in-command in Beicheng.
Madam Long passed away two years ago. Due to her health condition, the couple had no children. Thirty-nine-year-old Long Xiaosheng still takes on the responsibility of caring for his deceased wife's parents, earning him the reputation of a filial son-in-law.
Long Xiaosheng was promoted this year and held an engagement banquet, which even received the support of his deceased wife's parents.
From a certain perspective, Long Xiaosheng can be considered an absolute winner in life.
Li Duo looked at Long Xiaosheng and suddenly laughed, "I was walking at night and was startled by a stray cat, so I tripped and fell."
"I haven't had a chance to congratulate you on your promotion yet, but since you're having an engagement banquet today, I'll offer my congratulations on both occasions."
He glanced at Ma Jun.
Long Xiaosheng put his arm around Ma Jun's waist and said, "I forgot to introduce you. Jun'er is the leading lady today, and also my fiancée. You should know her."
Ma Jun smiled and said, "Miss Li once saved the horses at our horse farm. I will never forget this great kindness."
"Furthermore, Mr. Li is the second young lady's half-brother and also a benefactor of the Li family."
Li Duo glanced coldly at Ma Jun, "I didn't expect Miss Ma to still be someone who cherishes old friendships."
Ma Jun smiled, "Avenging wrongs and repaying kindness are the Ma family's motto. Please be aware!"
Wen Shu stood behind Li Duo without saying a word.
It wasn't until Ma Jun looked up that he asked, "Is this beautiful lady Mr. Li's date tonight, or will she be your date in the future?"
Li Duo moved his injured leg. "Of course, I'll take special care of my female companions."
Then he reached out to Wen Shu, "Help me up!"
Wen Shu was stunned. He could still stand up?
Wen Shu quickly supported him, and Li Duo put most of his weight on her, using her strength to slowly walk forward with his other leg, which was no longer swollen.
Long Xiaosheng was already the focus of attention, and Li Duo's appearance only drew more attention from others.
The Li, Long, and Ma families are among the wealthiest people in Beicheng. The sight of these three families appearing in the same frame is particularly eye-catching.
But who is the woman being held in Li Duo's arms?
Intentional or unintentional glances fell on Wen Shu, sending chills down her spine.
Once they reached the sofa, Wen Shu helped Li Duo sit down, and pushed the wheelchair beside him. Li Duo said, "I have something to say to a friend. Find somewhere to kill time, and I'll have someone call you later."
That's how they got rid of her.
Fortunately, Ma Jun let go of Long Xiaosheng's hand and walked over with a smile: "Miss Wen, if you don't mind, I'll introduce you to some new friends."
As Ma Jun said this, he made a point of observing Li Duo's expression; Li Duo didn't even raise his head.
In a corner of the banquet hall, Ma Jun glanced at Wen Shu and asked, "Do you know why Li Duo brought you to the Long family's engagement banquet?"
Wen Shu pursed her lips. "I don't know the specific reason, but... it probably isn't a good thing for me."
“He’s not completely stupid,” Ma Jun said. “Although he tried to suppress the news of his injury, word still leaked out.”
Wen Shu glanced at her, "Miss Ma had someone send a message?"
“Otherwise, how could I embarrass him? Originally, Li Duo only needed to hide and recover from his injuries, but I decided not to let him have his way.” Ma Jun said, “When Ma Biao’s leg was broken, it became common knowledge.”
Wen Shu pursed her lips and nodded: "Mm."
"However, I didn't expect him to actually dare to come in a wheelchair."
Ma Jun said while smoking a cigarette, "When the news of his injury got out, and he even started targeting the person who hadn't made a move yet, do you know what that means?"
Wen Shu thought for a moment and then shook her head.
"This means that Li Duo's prestige can be challenged, and that he can also stumble. So Wen Shu, you need to be careful!"
Wen Shu looked at her and asked, "Me?"
Ma Jun nodded: "Yes, you. You think Li Duo brought you here just to push his wheelchair? Really to serve him?"
Wen Shu pursed her lips and furrowed her brows slightly.
Ma Jun continued, "Li Duo is looking for a target to transfer risk to."
