An Yiqing was soaked when he came out of the Public Security Bureau. He never thought that the woman he loved so much would plot against him like this.
He had been thinking about Zhu Zhu all these years, but he didn't expect that she had already forgotten him in her heart.
Taking out his cell phone, An Yiqing called Zhu Jue. Zhu Jue's voice on the other end of the phone sounded very weak.
"What's the matter?" Zhu Jue's tone no longer had the arrogance of the past, and he seemed very weak.
"Zhu Jue, there's something you must answer me honestly." An Yiqing's voice trembled. "Did you sleep with Nanxun that night?"
Zhu Jue suddenly laughed nervously after hearing An Yiqing's question. Nan Xun had already asked Lin Qiao to give her the video from that night. When she got home and saw it, she was completely devastated.
It turned out that Nan Xun had drugged Zhu Jue's wine that night, which was why she passed out after drinking that glass of wine. After she fainted, Nan Xun put her on the bed and left the room. After that, Nan Xun's secretary Gao Lu came to the room and stayed with Zhu Jue all night. It was not until around 5 o'clock the next morning that Nan Xun returned to the room and sat on the sofa, waiting for An Yiqing and Zhu Zhu to come and catch them in the act.
"We've all been fooled by them!" Zhu Jue was a little hysterical. "Nanxun and Zhu Zhu didn't fall out at all. They are using me to set a trap for you!"
An Yiqing's heart sank upon hearing this. It turned out that he and his father had been being too clever. They'd assumed Zhu Zhu and Nan Xun's union was just a deal, easily broken. Unexpectedly, after Zhu Guanghua's deception, Zhu Zhu was actually willing to help Nan Xun deal with them.
Nanxun, and Zhu Zhu. I will never let you have an easy time! An Yiqing swore secretly.

Three days later, Nanxun brought Zhu Zhu to the island for the naming ceremony.
Because of its small size and private status, the island wasn't well-known. But after being acquired by Nan Yu, the island's fame soared. Nan Xun decided it was time to give it a proper name.
For the naming ceremony, Nan Yu paid a large sum to have the island's name carved on the dock. After it was erected, it was covered with a red cloth. No matter how much Zhu Zhu asked, Nan Xun refused to tell her the name. He simply said she would find out on the day of the unveiling.
Now, Zhu Zhu and Nan Xun stood in front of the island name, waiting for the auspicious time to arrive so that they could unveil the red curtain and announce it.
The reporters and celebrities watching the ceremony were also waiting anxiously, wondering what Nanxun would name the island.
"The auspicious time has arrived," the host announced in both Chinese and English. "Now, Mr. Nan Xun, the president of Nanyu Group, and his wife will unveil the island."
Under the applause of the crowd, Zhu Zhu took Nan Xun's arm and walked step by step towards the red curtain. Zhu Zhu did not expect that Nan Xun would let her unveil the curtain together.
"Are you ready?" Nan Xun lowered his head and whispered in Zhu Zhu's ear.
"Yeah." Zhu Zhu nodded.
Nan Xun then held Zhu Zhu's hand and together they pulled the rope to open the red curtain.
Wow!
Zhu Zhu was stunned when the curtain was raised. Craftsmen had created a uniquely designed sign for the island using gilded metal. The sign read: Pearl Island, written in both Chinese and English.
When the curtain was raised, reporters took a frenzy of photos of the island and the Nan couple. Then, a curious reporter couldn't help but ask Nan Xun a question.
"Young Master Nan, is this island named Pearl Island because it's rich in pearls?"
Nan Xun looked at Zhu Zhu beside him tenderly and said with a smile, "No. This island does not produce pearls.
"Then why is it named Pearl Island?"
Like the reporters, Zhu Zhu was also curious about the reason why Nanxun chose the name. She tilted her head and waited intently for Nanxun to give an explanation.
"Because my wife's name is Zhu Zhu." Nan Xun looked at Zhu Zhu deeply, "In my eyes, she is like a pearl, so I named this island Pearl Island."
"So this is Master Nan expressing his love to his wife." The reporters were fed a lot of dog food and were very envious.
"That's not all." Nan Xun didn't object. "I've given this island to my wife as a gift. So my wife is the new owner of this island."
Zhu Zhu didn't expect Nan Xun to do this and looked at him in surprise.
Nan Xun curled his lips slightly and leaned close to Zhu Zhu's ear and said, "Don't you want a reward? This is the reward I give you."
