The once-powerful Zha Nan Company collapsed overnight. In its place, the Xia Group emerged as the new heir to the business empire with unstoppable momentum, showing a strong trend of surpassing the former Zha Nan. It is said that this is because the Xia Group has recruited a new general manager. In fact, the general manager is equivalent to the real decision-maker of the Xia Group, because Chairman Xia Chao has become increasingly irrelevant.
Regardless, it is conceivable that as the Xia family's influence grows stronger, Xia Fengguang's status as the sole heir of the Xia family will also rise accordingly, especially since she is not yet married.
Okay, she's getting married in three days, but as of now, she's not married and doesn't have a husband, right?
Fengguang was stuck in the bridal shop. How many times had this happened? The rich young master pretended to bump into her and then invited her to a candlelight dinner.
She glanced at Yu Li, who was pretending to admire the scenery not far away, and thought to herself, "That stingy guy. Bai Zhi just tricked him, and he's still holding a grudge." She figured Yu Li wouldn't come to help, so she suppressed her impatience and gave the man in front of her a polite smile: "Mr. Zhang, I'm sorry to refuse your kindness. I don't have time."
“There’s always time if you squeeze it in, Miss Xia. I’ve heard you’re very beautiful, and seeing you in person, it’s true that seeing is believing.” To be fair, Zhang Fang is good-looking, but he’s a notorious playboy. He’s known for seducing any woman he sets his sights on. And now, he’s destined to be rejected. “It’s fate that we’ve met. I’ve booked the best restaurant and am just waiting for Miss Xia.”
"I told you, I don't have time." Feng Guang had already given up even the need to maintain a polite smile.
But Zhang Fang persisted, "Miss Xia, as long as you're willing to come with me, I can guarantee you won't regret it."
After saying that, he revealed a smile that exuded a strong sense of hormones.
Feng Guang chuckled twice and tried to walk past him to leave, but Zhang Fang grabbed her hand with great strength. She struggled but couldn't break free. "Zhang Fang, let go of me!"
Sometimes women do like strong men.
Zhang Fang grabbed Feng Guang's hand and leaned closer to her, "Miss Xia, why are you in such a hurry to leave, hmm?"
Feng Guang felt a chill run down her spine because she suddenly remembered Song Mo, whom she hadn't seen in a long time. Unfortunately, the domineering CEO tactic didn't work on her. Her expression turned cold. "Let me go! Don't you understand what I'm saying?"
"We finally caught you, how can we let you go so easily?"
A herd of alpacas galloped through her mind.
Yu Li finally decided not to just watch the show anymore. He was about to go and rescue Feng Guang, but someone was faster than him. When he saw that person, he suddenly smiled and retreated, and with a wicked smile, he made a phone call, "Bai Zhi, your fiancée is about to be stolen away."
Well then, let him look forward to what's to come.
Zhang Fang's hand was suddenly pulled away. Because it came so suddenly, he was completely unprepared. As he looked at Cheng Yaojin, who had suddenly appeared, he also heard his warning words.
"Don't touch her." Song Mo's face seemed to be covered with frost.
Feng Guang looked at the man blocking her way with surprise.
They used to be in the same circle, so Zhang Fang naturally knew Song Mo. In the past, he might have thought that Song Mo was someone he couldn't afford to offend, but now, was Song Mo still someone important? "I was wondering who it was. Oh, it's Mr. Song."
"Zhang Fang, I didn't know you liked to force women. Is your taste really that bad?"
"What right does Mr. Song have to criticize me? I remember that when you were living a luxurious life, you also invited quite a few women to dine with you."
"The women I find are all willing."
“Yes, after all, Mr. Song only has one…” Zhang Fang paused deliberately, “…just Cinderella.”
It wasn't a secret that Song Mo and Miss Xia broke off their engagement back then, and the reason he wanted to break it off was even less of a secret. Just think how spirited Song Mo was back then, but now everyone treats him as a joke. How many elders teach their children that blindly pursuing so-called true love will only lead to the same fate as Song Mo.
Zhang Fangming's words were clearly sarcastic, but Song Mo remained silent. He was no longer the Song Mo he used to be; he had become much more composed and reserved.
Feng Guang suddenly felt a little sorry for him.
Zhang Fang, sporting his signature smile, looked at Feng Guang and said, "Miss Xia, you probably don't like him being here, do you? I can help you get rid of these annoying flies, all you have to do is say the word, Miss Xia."
"In that case, why don't you just get rid of yourself first?"
Zhang Fang was shameless. "Hey, I'm not like Song Mo. If you want to describe me, you should at least use 'butterfly'."
"Butterfly?" A deep male voice suddenly sounded from behind Zhang Fang. Zhang Fang turned around unconsciously and was met with a heavy fist to his face. He only had time to cry out in pain before falling heavily to the ground.
The man elegantly fastened his cufflinks, his refined and composed demeanor revealing nothing of the violent person he had just been. He smiled, his handsome features striking, "I'll make you a butterfly with broken wings then."
"Bai Zhi!"
A sweet, coquettish cry rang out, and Bai Zhi found himself with a doll-like figure clinging to him. He held her hips to prevent her from falling. Since leaving Zha Nan Company, he hadn't worn glasses, so he looked down at her with eyes overflowing with tenderness that was visible to everyone. "I'm late, is everything alright?"
"It's nothing!" She shook her head, then buried her head contentedly in his neck. "It's so good that you're here."
Bai Zhi kissed her cheek.
"Bai Zhi! How dare you hit me!" Zhang Fang stumbled and fell to his feet, his previous dashing and handsome demeanor gone, replaced by a disheveled state. But before he could regain his footing, he was bumped into by someone coming from behind.
Yu Li asked with concern, "Mr. Zhang, are you alright?"
He asked questions out of concern, but I never saw him squat down to help the person.
Zhang Fang couldn't get up for a long time.
Yu Li scolded Bai Zhi, "Bai Zhi, how could you hit someone? Mr. Zhang is the only son of the Zhang family. If something happens to him, can you take responsibility?"
"Hey! Little Yu!" Feng Guang looked up.
“I think you’ve got something wrong.” Bai Zhi patted Feng Guang’s back, signaling her to calm down. “This shop is under Miss Lu’s name. If Zhang Fang had an accident here, then Miss Lu must also take responsibility, right?”
The rumored Miss Lu is none other than Yu Li's fiancée, whom he has yet to win over.
Yu Li's expression changed, then he gritted his teeth and said, "Bai Zhi, you're ruthless. Zhang Fang, let's go outside and have a good talk."
"Who do you think you are? Let me go!"
The protest was ineffective, and poor Zhang Fang had just stood up when Yu Li dragged him out for a "chat" again.
With the extra people gone, Bai Zhi naturally looked at Song Mo. His expression revealed nothing of his thoughts, while Song Mo simply watched him quietly.
The atmosphere was a bit awkward. Having had her fill of being the koala on Bai Zhi's back, she got off and stood up, holding Bai Zhi's hand. "Just now, Zhang Fang was bothering me, and he helped me."
Bai Zhi smiled enigmatically, “Mr. Song, thank you for helping my fiancée.”
"I just can't stand men who bully women." Song Mo glanced at Feng Guang. To be honest, it was impossible for him not to feel something. Bai Zhi used to be his subordinate, and Feng Guang was his fiancée. But now, although Bai Zhi was smiling, Song Mo knew that Bai Zhi was asserting her dominance.
All of this should have been his.
"Song Mo, I'm all changed!" Qiu Niannian came downstairs. She was wearing a wedding dress, and her makeup was delicate and lovely. Because her belly was already quite big, she specially chose a wedding dress that didn't accentuate her waist. She came to Song Mo's side, and when she saw Feng Guang and Bai Zhi, she was taken aback. The happy expression on her face disappeared, but she still politely said, "Hello, both of you."
Bai Zhi nodded slightly. "So Mr. Song is here. He's here to accompany Miss Qiu to try on her wedding dress."
"Hmph, what did you think?"
Bai Zhi smiled but did not speak.
Song Mo pulled Qiu Niannian upstairs again. After a few steps, he stopped and said without turning his head, "Bai Zhi, don't think of me as a petty person. Even if I regret what I've given up, I won't beg for it back."
This sentence seems to be expressing one's determination to others, and also seems to be a warning to oneself that Song Mo and Qiu Niannian have gone upstairs and disappeared.
Feng Guang looked up and asked, "What did he mean?"
"It's nothing." Bai Zhi raised his hand to smooth her slightly messy hair. "Why didn't you call me when you were choosing a wedding dress?"
"Aren't you very busy? I can come by myself." She was understanding. Although her father had approved of Bai Zhi, it was as if he was venting his dissatisfaction by handing over all the work to Bai Zhi, who was now a very busy person.
"I've already had a wedding dress custom-made."
She was surprised, "When did you order this? How come I didn't know?"
"It was delivered to my home a month ago, and it's already been delivered today. Let's go home, and you can wear it for me, okay?"
"Okay!" She smiled and threw herself into his arms.
How can you expect someone else to be the first person to see her in a wedding dress?
Bai Zhi kissed the top of her head. Tonight, he would personally put on that wedding dress for her and personally take it off for her. The sooner he made her his woman, the fewer blind men there would be.
