"I called our village chief and asked him to coordinate matters between He Xingmi and the village. Our village chief is a very good person, but the conditions in the village are not good. The clothes he wore seemed out of place in the imperial capital, and it was not appropriate to wear them when discussing business with people. So I took him to the mall to buy clothes." Lu Youxi then talked about how he was photographed looking at clothes with the village chief in the mall, and how Lin Jingshen and Lu Youbang threw dirty water on him.

"I don't know why Lin Jingshen hates me so much. I can understand Lu Youbang. Although he is my cousin, we have always had conflicts. He spent all our family's money, lied and bragged at school, and after I exposed him, he was like a rat crossing the street at school. But Lin Jingshen, I have never offended him, and I don't know where he gets such hostility from."

"Later, not only him, but even his father Lin Zhenghao caused trouble for me." Lu Youxi also talked about the strike led by Lin Zhenghao and the engineering team.

"That's fine. I'll just think that Lin Zhenghao is competing with my peers." Lu Youxi spread his hands. "Although he didn't know about my relationship with Zhou Shuyan at the time, Youshu Real Estate was just an insignificant small company in their eyes. It had no competitiveness at all. I don't know what he has to be hostile to. If he knew about my relationship with Zhou Shuyan, he would have dared not do anything."

"Guess what happened next?" Lu Youxi said to Jiang Zilin.

Jiang Zilin had been attracted by what Lu Youxi said. When she heard what Lu Youxi said, she immediately stretched her neck and asked, "What's going on?"

"Didn't you guys find out about Lin Jingshen and Lu Youzhen and cancel the engagement with him?" Lu Youxi sneered, "No one in your circle is willing to marry Lin Jingshen again."

Jiang Zilin reminded from the side, "We are actually in the same circle."

Lu Youxi waved his hand, "To be honest, I never felt like I belonged to this circle."

"Maybe it's because I was born in Hexing Village and have never been exposed to these things. Even when I came to the imperial capital to do business, I didn't have much dealings with people in the so-called circle. It was just business." Lu Youxi said.

"And, to be honest, now everyone knows that Zhou Shuyan is my husband. Before they didn't know, they just thought of me as a small businessman and didn't want to see me in the circle." Lu Youxi said, "I still understand that we can't force ourselves to blend into different circles."

Jiang Zilin thought about it and realized it was true.

She knows too well what these people in the circle are thinking.

The old wealthy families look down upon upstarts like Lu Youxi.

Especially since Lu Youxi came from the countryside and worked hard to get to where he is today, it is really admirable.

However, most people in the circle are proud of their family background and look down on those who change their destiny through hard work.

She understands these people's minds because she grew up in such an environment.

But Lu Youxi has never had any contact with these people, but he can understand their thoughts so well, which is really admirable.

No wonder Lu Youxi was successful.

Her vision and ideas are extremely accurate.

"Because no one in the circle is willing to pay attention to Lin Jingshen anymore, it is impossible for Lin Jingshen to find a wife of equal status if he wants to marry again." Lu Youxi said, "But if he wants to find an ordinary family, neither Lin Jingshen nor his parents are happy about it, and they look down on them."

"Guess what? They actually set their sights on me." Lu Youxi sneered.

"Why would they target you? You... aren't you married? Besides, they were so hostile to you before and repeatedly made things difficult for you, how could they still have the nerve to target you?"

"Isn't that right? Normal people would think like you. This shows how shameless their family is." Lu Youxi said, "They don't know the relationship between me and Zhou Shuyan. They just think my husband is an ordinary office worker who is not as capable as me and is living off me."

Jiang Zilin: “…”

She really couldn't imagine Zhou Shuyan being a gigolo.

"They look down on ordinary people, so they naturally think that after I become rich, I will also look down on my ordinary husband." Lu Youxi said, "Lin Jingshen is very confident. He thinks that if he comes to me and says he is willing to marry me, I will be willing to divorce my husband and marry him to become the young lady of the Lin family."

"He... where does he get this confidence from?" Jiang Zilin asked in confusion, "Not to mention the bad things he did to you before, you know all about his bad deeds. And she's married and has a good relationship with her husband. How could she be willing to divorce her husband and marry him?"

"That's right. That's why I say they are shameless and self-righteous. They think they are pretty awesome." Lu Youxi said, "Besides, do you know what they are planning?"

"They thought that since they showed kindness to me and were willing to condescend to marry me, I would rush to marry into their family. So, before anything came of it, they thought that after I married into their family, they would swallow up my companies. I have three companies, Hexingmi, Xiaofenshu and Youshu Real Estate. They all want them," said Lu Youxi.

"And these three companies are the reason why they want me to marry into the Lin family. They look down on ordinary people and think that I come from a humble background, but I am capable and I own companies, which just meets their requirements." Lu Youxi sneered.

"They...they are so shameless!" Jiang Zilin said angrily.

"I tell you this just to let you know that it's not just Lin Jingshen who is shameless in the Lin family, but there are no good people in their entire family." Lu Youxi said, "So it's fortunate that you discovered in time that Lin Jingshen is not a good person, and it's also fortunate that Mr. Jiang and Mrs. Jiang love you and decisively canceled the engagement to prevent you from falling into the fire pit."

"Otherwise, if I really marry Lin Jingshen, I will be in big trouble." Lu Youxi said.

Mrs. Jiang happened to come over and heard what Lu Youxi said, and she couldn't help but laugh.

“Although I don’t socialize in this circle, I can imagine that there must be many families who sacrifice their children for the benefit of their own company. Even if they know that the other party is not a good person, they still insist on letting their children marry the other party just to make their own company bigger and stronger.” Lu Youxi said.

"But Mr. and Mrs. Jiang are not like that. They consider your happiness first. When they introduced you two to a blind date, it was because Lin Jingshen showed that he was really good in all aspects. After all, before Lu Youzhen's affair was exposed, no one in the circle knew that Lin Jingshen was not a good person. That's why this incident caused an uproar."
