Chapter 350: Blinded by Greed
Yan Nan frowned, "Just a photo, what can it prove?"
Zhao Mingyue was in disbelief and angrily asked, "Yan Nan, are you interested in Xiao Muzhen?!"
A cold look flashed in Yan Nan's eyes. "Besides love and romance, what else can be on your mind?! I don't like anyone, I just want to work hard. Can you leave now?"
"I've liked you for so many years, are you really indifferent?!"
Facing the deep affection in Zhao Mingyue's eyes, Yan Nan's eyes showed no fluctuation at all.
"Zhao Sheji, you're not my type."
Zhao Mingyue sneered, "I won't give up!"
She has liked Yan Nan for so many years, since they were still in college. She will definitely marry him in this life!
Seeing the look in Zhao Mingyue's eyes, Yan Nan was silent for a while, then slowly said, "Zhao Design, I hope you won't insist on it anymore. I won't fall in love with you, not before, and not in the future."
Zhao Mingyue's eyes were full of embarrassment. She said nothing more and turned around and left.
Looking at her back, a hint of disgust flashed in Yan Nan's eyes.
After being entangled by Zhao Mingyue for so many years, whenever there was a girl who had a crush on him, Zhao Mingyue would find a way to drive her away, and there were many girls who had a mutual crush on him.
If he hadn't remembered the favor of Zhao Mingyue lending him money when his mother was ill, he would have cut off all ties with Zhao Mingyue long ago.
…
After Xiao Muzhen left Qingshang, he directly found Shi Yiheng's contact information and asked him to meet in the evening.
Half an hour later, Xiao Muzhen looked at Shi Yiheng who was sitting opposite him with an indifferent expression.
"Mr. Shi, I asked you out today because I have a question for you."
"What?"
"Do I really look a lot like your deceased friend?"
She was really curious about how similar they were to make Shi Yiheng and Huo Yunting mistake them for each other. Moreover, Zhao Mingyue also made a mistake in the banquet hall that day.
Shi Yiheng was silent for a few seconds, then nodded and said, "Yes, they are indeed very similar, almost identical."
"Do you have a picture of her? I'd like to see it."
"have."
Shi Yiheng opened his cell phone, found a photo of Chi Muzhen and handed it to her.
The moment he saw the photo clearly, Xiao Muzhen's expression suddenly changed, and his eyes were full of disbelief and shock.
Not to mention Shi Yiheng and Huo Yunting, even if she saw the woman in the photo, she would definitely think it was herself.
But she was sure that she had never taken such a photo before.
"Mr. Shi, I do look a lot like her, but I'm not her." Xiao Muzhen suppressed the shock in his heart and said slowly to Shi Yiheng.
"Her name is Chi Muzhen, and your name is Xiao Muzhen. Do you think... is there really such a coincidence in the world?"
On the way back, Xiao Muzhen was torn between his conscience and his desires.
She recalled her past three years. Although she had almost forgotten the small things, she still remembered the big things clearly. Three years ago, she was preparing to study abroad. Because of her good grades, there were almost no obstacles, so she applied to a foreign school.
So, she couldn't be Chi Muzhen.
But she didn't know how to explain the fact that their names were almost exactly the same. It was understandable if they looked exactly the same, but having the same name was too much of a coincidence.
After returning to the Xiao family, Xiao Muzhen went to find Xun Zi.
"Mom, I have something to tell you."
Xun Zi was pruning flowers. Upon hearing this, she smiled and turned to look at her. Seeing that her face was a little pale, she asked in confusion, "What's wrong? Were you bullied at the company?"
"no."
Xiao Muzhen shook her head, her voice a little low, "Mom, you know Mr. Huo from the Huo Group, right? He told me today that I was his ex-wife who died three years ago..."
The moment the words fell, the scissors in Xun Zi's hand fell to the ground.
"Mom, what's wrong with you?"
Xiao Muzhen quickly picked up the scissors and said, "Are you scared too? He said that not only do I look like his ex-wife, but we also have the same name. That's why I found it strange."
Xun Zi came back to her senses and quickly said, "He must have made a mistake. You are my daughter, how could you be his ex-wife?"
"But I've seen the photos, and I do look exactly like that Chi Muzhen. Could she be my lost twin sister or something?"
Facing Xiao Muzhen's puzzled gaze, Xun Zi slowly said, "It must be a coincidence. Don't worry about it. I'll tell your dad and let him handle it."
Xiao Muzhen nodded, "Okay."
Anyway, she didn't really like interacting with Huo Yunting. His gaze was too aggressive, and she felt uncomfortable every time they looked at each other.
After Xiao Muzhen returned to the room, Xun Zi immediately called Xiao Tuo.
"I'll go to your company right away. I have something important to discuss with you."
An hour later, in Xiao Tuo's office.
Xiao Tuo's face was filled with anger, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Huo Yunting has gone too far! Doesn't he know what he did to Zhenzhen in the first place?! And now he even dares to come looking for Zhenzhen! I won't let him go!"
Xun Zi also had a worried look on her face, looking at Xiao Tuo with dissatisfaction, "It's all your fault. I originally told you to change Zhenzhen's name, but you refused. Just the face alone was enough to make Huo Yunting suspicious, and now with the name, he's sure to know Zhenzhen is his ex-wife."
"We personally gave Zhenzhen this name, and Zhenzhen hasn't done anything to offend him, so there's no need to change her name! I'll handle this matter and definitely won't let him get close to Zhenzhen again!"
At the same time, in a villa worth billions in Beijing, a man in his fifties wearing a black suit and with slightly gray hair stood by the window.
"Is Yun Ting involved with the Xiao family's daughter again?"
His voice was icy cold, and his features resembled Huo Yunting's in some ways, especially when his face was cold, their expressions were almost identical.
The housekeeper bent down behind him and said, "That's what the people who followed the young master said. Master, should we teach the Xiao family a lesson?"
The man shook his head. "No, I've already retired. If I take action now, it will attract the attention of the Xiao family. Let's see what happens first. No matter what, I won't let them be together."
Three years ago, he felt that Chi Muzhen was not worthy of Huo Yunting. Even though she was now the adopted daughter of the Xiao family, she was still not worthy of being with Huo Yunting.
"yes."
The butler retreated quietly.
…
After Xun Zi left, Xiao Tuo immediately called Huo Yunting.
"Mr. Huo, isn't it a bit too much for you to go in front of my daughter and talk nonsense? If those words get out, how will my daughter ever date and get married in the future?"
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a few seconds before Huo Yunting spoke in a cold voice: "Boss Xiao, Xiao Muzhen is my wife Chi Muzhen. You and I both know this. I will definitely find out what happened three years ago and I will definitely bring my wife back to me!"
Xiao Tuo sneered, "That depends on whether you have the ability!"
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Tuo was still very angry and called his secretary in directly.
"Terminate all cooperation with the Huo family. From now on, any project that the Huo family is interested in will be snatched up!"
He just didn't believe that he couldn't cure Huo Yunting, who came from Rongcheng.
"Mr. Xiao, our company and the Huo family have collaborated on several multi-billion dollar projects. If we terminate the project now, it will be more trouble than it's worth."
"I'll make up for all the losses!"
Hearing him say this, the secretary could only sigh and turn back to work.
