Chapter 419 is about to ruin everything for me!

Liao Mingxin knew his own son very well.

Seeing that he had become interested in Shen Xuewei, he said with a smile:

"That's right, this is Shen Xuewei. Dad wasn't lying to you, was he? She's beautiful, rich, and has a good eye for investment. If you can win her over, you won't have to worry about money after you get married."

Liao Shaojie stroked his chin, scrutinizing Shen Xuewei repeatedly, and nodded, saying:

“Dad, you’re right. I’ll go say hello to her then…”

Liao Mingxin stopped him, "Hey, what are you going over there for now? Go over there later."

“She's at the auction, so there must be something she's interested in buying. Later, you bid on that item and send it to her. Aren't you the best at winning women's hearts? Now it's up to you…”

As the auction began, Shen Xuewei showed no intention of bidding on several items.

It wasn't until halfway through the auction, when a high-quality, translucent, icy green jadeite bangle was brought up, that Shen Xuewei finally made her bid.

When the bidding for the bracelet reached 1.3 million, perhaps feeling that the price exceeded her budget, Shen Xuewei's voice fell silent.

Liao Mingxin nudged Liao Shaojie's arm, "Hurry up and follow, or someone else will snatch the bracelet."

Liao Shaojie looked troubled. "Dad, I don't have that much money."

Liao Mingxin was furious. "Didn't you just ask me for two million last month? You've already spent it all?"

Liao Shaojie feigned ignorance, scratched his head, and chuckled twice, "Really? Is that so?"

Liao Mingxin took a deep breath. "You raise your paddle for me. I'll pay for this bracelet. You can deliver it to Miss Chen later."

If this weren't his own son, he would have beaten him to death.

"Okay, Dad."

As long as Liao Shaojie doesn't have to pay for it himself and use his father's money to pick up girls, he readily agreed.

After several bids, he finally won the bracelet for 1.6 million.

As the auction ended, Shen Xuewei walked out with a slightly disappointed expression. Liao Mingxin, with his son, came up to greet her with a big laugh.

"Mr. Shen, it's been a long time. I didn't expect to run into you here."

When Shen Xuewei saw him, a hint of surprise flashed across her brows. "President Liao, I didn't expect you to come too."

Noticing Liao Shaojie beside him, "This is..."

"Oh, him? Look at my memory, I forgot to introduce him to you."

"Shao Jie, come over here quickly and say hello to Mr. Shen, get to know him."

Liao Shaojie acted like a gentleman and greeted Shen Xuewei politely.

“Miss Shen, I am Liao Shaojie. You can just call me Shaojie.”

He shook hands with Shen Xuewei, gripping lightly and releasing immediately. The next moment, as if by magic, he flicked his fingertips, and a vibrant red rose appeared in his hand, eliciting a soft gasp from Shen Xuewei.

A smug smile played on his lips as he presented the rose to Shen Xuewei.

He flicked his fingertips again, spun his palm, and a glistening bracelet appeared in his hand, which he presented to Shen Xuewei.

Holding the rose, Shen Xuewei blinked as she looked at the bracelet in front of her, and exclaimed in delight:

"Isn't this the bracelet from the auction just now? I didn't expect you to win it, Shao Jie."

She refused, saying, "No, this is too expensive, I can't accept it."

“Hey, you can’t say that,” Liao Shaojie said seriously.

"Giving a beautiful bracelet to a beautiful woman is nothing but a small amount of money. If Miss Shen likes it, then it is all worthwhile."

Shen Xuewei let him put the bracelet on her wrist, and looking at his expression, it was clear that it was different from others.

Wang Xiuqi only learned that Shen Xuewei and Liao Shaojie were getting along very well ten days later.

Shen Xuewei, the Liao family, and Lü Songyun intentionally kept it from him. If it weren't for a leak from one of the company's employees, he might still be in the dark even after the company's control was transferred.

It should be noted that Shen Xuewei is the company's second-largest shareholder.

She owns less than 3% fewer shares than him.

Once she's won over by the Liao family, and considering the shares they hold, their combined influence will surpass that of him and Ouyang Kuang...

Liao Shaojie knew that he was a playboy who was best at chasing girls and making them happy; he was a seasoned player in the dating scene.

No matter how shrewd Shen Xuewei is, she is just a woman in her twenties, and Liao Shaojie can easily charm her into losing her mind.

What if she loses her mind and marries Liao Shaojie, or sells her shares to the Liao family...?

No, he must take back control of this company!

Thinking of this, he hurriedly asked his assistant to help him find out where Shen Xuewei had been going recently.

After learning that Shen Xuewei's recent haunt was a couples' restaurant, he took a deep breath and said:

"I understand, you can go now."

He stood in the office, looked around, then suddenly grabbed his suit jacket and threw it on the ground, cursing:

"Damn it, this woman who only acts on her emotions is going to ruin everything!"

However angry he was, he had to solve the problem at hand first.

Forcibly suppressing his anger, he decided to take the initiative.

Shen Xuewei and Liao Shaojie were having dinner at a romantic restaurant when Liao Shaojie received a phone call. His expression changed, and he said apologetically to Shen Xuewei:

"Weiwei, I'm sorry, something came up at home and I have to go back."

Shen Xuewei was very understanding. "It's okay, you can come again next time. Since something happened at home, you should go back and check on things. My driver will take me home later."

Liao Shaojie smiled gratefully, "Weiwei, you're so kind. I'll be going now. I've already paid the bill. Enjoy your meal, I'll join you again next time."

He grabbed his car keys and strode away. Shen Xuewei looked out the window, and as Liao Shaojie's bright red Ferrari drove off, she guessed that the person she was waiting for was probably arriving soon.

She nodded to Peng Zhiyun, who was not far away, signaling him to come over.

"Liao Shaojie hasn't touched the food on the other side. Have something to fill your stomach."

Peng Zhiyun responded and sat down opposite him in the booth, then moved further in.

She had just cut a small piece of steak and put it in her mouth when someone else came in through the door, heading straight for Shen Xuewei's table.

Shen Xuewei knew that the person she was waiting for had arrived.

"Miss Shen, it's been a long time."

Shen Xuewei paused, lifted her eyelids to look at Wang Xiuqi, who had come uninvited, but her smile didn't reach her eyes.

What are you doing here?

She spoke with a temper, clearly displeased with Wang Xiuqi.

Wang Xiuqi wasn't angry; he simply adjusted his glasses as usual.

“I am here specifically for Miss Shen. I heard that you have been getting close to Liao Shaojie lately. Miss Shen is still young, so don’t be fooled by empty words and lose your way.”

Shen Xuewei sneered, picked up the glass of red wine beside her, and splashed it all over his face.

"Wang Xiuqi, I'm giving you face, but you really think you're something special, even meddling in my affairs."

"You came specifically for me... Ha, so you're just following me, making it sound so nice. Didn't your parents teach you not to pry into other people's privacy? You have no manners at all."

Wang Xiuqi remained calm and composed even after Shen Xuewei splashed red wine all over his face.

He pulled out two tissues, wiped the red wine off his face, and got straight to the point:

"Miss Chen, do you still stand by what you promised me?"

Shen Xuewei seemed to have no recollection of what had happened before, saying, "I didn't promise you anything."
