Chapter 202 Sending them to jail
The woman who was standing in the distance calling out "Steven" turned deathly pale the moment she saw Xie Nanzhi.
She never expected to meet Xie Nanzhi here.
The Earth is so big, how could we possibly meet?
Mu Jiaojiao walked towards Wei Chizheng, her gaze also drifting over Xie Nanzhi, "I was afraid you had drunk too much, so I thought I'd come and pick you up."
Mu Jiaojiao smiled gently, glancing at the leftover food on the table out of the corner of her eye, and said without changing her expression, "Steven, if we're done talking, let's go back. I'm sleepy."
Even if Mu Jiaojiao didn't come, the dinner party would still end.
Wei Chi nodded, then stood up to say goodbye to Xie Nanzhi. "Miss Nan, we'll discuss the follow-up matters by phone. I'll be leaving now. Goodbye."
It was clear that Mu Jiaojiao was very anxious, especially since she didn't dare to look Xie Nanzhi in the eye.
Seeing that the two were about to leave, Xie Nanzhi put down her teacup and stood up. "Miss Mu, it's been a long time. I never expected that we would meet again."
Mu Jiaojiao paused, her gaze toward Xie Nanzhi growing increasingly unfriendly.
Wei Chizheng also became more curious, "Jiaojiao, do you know Miss Nan?"
Mu Jiaojiao gave a brief explanation, "Well, we met a few times in China before, but we weren't close."
Mu Jiaojiao was terrified. She knew that Xie Nanzhi was her biggest threat.
Upon hearing this, Xie Nanzhi laughed, her tone laced with sarcasm, "I'm not familiar with her, but Miss Mu is close to my husband; they've been childhood friends. Oh, by the way, she's always secretly had a crush on my husband. Does Mr. Steven know that?"
Mu Jiaojiao panicked and suddenly roared, "Miss Nan, that's enough!"
The two men stared at each other, their expressions tense and ready to fight.
Xie Nanzhi's face also turned cold, her eyes full of provocation, "What? Are you scared?"
It's more than just fear.
Mu Jiaojiao gritted her teeth, her eyes fierce.
Just then, Mu Jiaojiao's body went limp, and Wei Chizheng quickly caught her, "Jiaojiao, what's wrong?"
Mu Jiaojiao held her forehead, looking pained. "My head hurts so much. My old problem seems to have flared up again. Steven, I'm going back now."
Wei Chizheng nervously picked her up and said, "Okay, let's go back now."
He held Mu Jiaojiao in his arms and didn't even glance at Xie Nanzhi as he passed by.
She stood there quietly, watching her husband hurriedly leave with another woman in his arms.
Xie Nanzhi desperately wanted to stop him and question him.
Xie Nanzhi wouldn't do something so impulsive before she understood the situation.
Watching Wei Chizheng's departing figure, Xie Nanzhi's gaze lingered, and her lips turned deathly pale.
Back at the hotel, Mu Jiaojiao lay on the bed to rest. Wei Chizheng poured her some water. "Are you feeling better?"
Mu Jiaojiao leaned weakly against the headboard, then took Wei Chizheng's hand. "I'm much better now, but why were you having dinner with Miss Nan?"
Unsure of what Xie Nanzhi and Wei Chizheng had said, Mu Jiaojiao could only cautiously try to find out.
Wei Chizheng recounted his meeting with Muhammad to Mu Jiaojiao, after which her voice became shrill, "What? You want to jointly develop the oil field? I don't agree."
She never interfered in his official business.
What happened this time?
Mu Jiaojiao realized her mistake and softened her tone considerably. "Steven, I'm doing this for your own good. Miss Nan and I are old acquaintances, but actually, her character is a bit questionable. In Hong Kong, there used to be a Shen family. She was engaged to Shen Xu, but later she hooked up with the wealthier Pei Jingchuan and dumped her fiancé. Then, she met the son of the richest man in Hong Kong, who was completely infatuated with her and insisted on marrying her regardless of whether she was a divorcee. As a result, the richest man's son died a little over a month after the marriage, leaving her a large fortune. Otherwise, how do you think she would have achieved what she has today? Now, she probably has her eye on you again, which is why she's using this opportunity to get close to you. Steven, this woman is too cunning. I'm just worried that you'll be bewitched by her."
Wei Chi raised his eyebrows slightly, but did not respond immediately.
But the more this happened, the more worried Mu Jiaojiao became.
If he remembered something...
Mu Jiaojiao bit her lower lip until it bled, staring blankly at Wei Chizheng.
This waiting was too long and too agonizing for her.
Until Wei Chizheng looked at her, he said, "You underestimate me."
The implication is that the cooperation will continue, and he and Xie Nanzhi will meet countless more times in the future.
Mu Jiaojiao was going crazy. "Steven, I'm just scared. I lack confidence in myself. Steven, please, don't cooperate with her, okay? We can just give it to her."
Wei Chizheng's decisions are not easily changed by ordinary people.
At least, Mu Jiaojiao doesn't have that ability.
Wei Chizheng took a deep breath and slowly stood up. His eyes were cold and indifferent, without a trace of love. "Jiaojiao, I will make my own judgment on work matters. You should get some rest."
Wei Chizheng turned around, casually adjusting his cuffs.
The next second, Mu Jiaojiao hurriedly jumped off the bed and hugged him from behind, "Steven, don't go, please stay."
This scene has played out more than once in the past three years.
Unfortunately, Wei Chizheng's attitude was always unquestionable.
He pulled his hand away from Mu Jiaojiao's and said as always, "Jiaojiao, I won't touch you before the marriage. This is the most basic respect I can give you."
Mu Jiaojiao staggered and fell onto the bed, while Wei Chizheng walked away gracefully.
She watched the door close, overwhelmed by resentment and anger.
For three years, Wei Chizheng had never touched her, even knowing she was his fiancée, he always adhered to that principle.
They called it taking responsibility for her.
But Mu Jiaojiao knew in her heart that he simply didn't have feelings for her and didn't want to touch her.
She thought she had the rest of her life to wait for him to slowly accept her, but now that the other woman has appeared, Mu Jiaojiao is completely panicked.
After thinking it over, Mu Jiaojiao called Xie Nanzhi.
Xie Nanzhi wasn't idle either; Mu Lin sent her all the information about Steven.
When Mu Lin saw Steven's photo, he reacted the same way as Xie Nanzhi: shocked, surprised, then puzzled and confused.
Mu Lin said, "Sister-in-law, although this person looks exactly like Second Master, Second Master is clearly dying. Are you sure he is really Second Master?"
Xie Nanzhi scoffed, "How could I mistake my own man?"
Mu Lin: "Uh, that's true."
Xie Nanzhi added, "Moreover, I saw Mu Jiaojiao today, who is Steven's fiancée, which makes me even more certain that he must be Wei Chizheng."
Mu Lin was so shocked that he couldn't speak.
How did Second Master get involved with Miss Mu? That doesn't make sense.
Mu Lin asked cautiously, "Sister-in-law, what if Second Master really doesn't remember you anymore, and is in love with Mu Jiaojiao instead? What do you plan to do?"
Xie Nanzhi wasn't that magnanimous; she wouldn't grant their wish.
“I will have Zhou Mubin prosecute you for bigamy and send your second uncle to jail.”
