Chapter 1010 The Neglected Woman
Zhou Anan was stunned for a few seconds when she heard Mr. Li, Asia's richest man, suddenly asking about her marriage situation. Then she smiled and replied, "Thank you for your concern, Uncle Li. I'm still young and don't want to consider getting married so soon."
Regardless of whether the other party wants to arrange a match for you, just refuse first.
Are you kidding? He has so many confidantes and beautiful women, if he considers getting married at this time, isn't it like giving up an entire lush forest for a tree?
Besides, he is only 21 years old now, and he will not be 20 until December this year. It is too early to talk about marriage.
"Haha, only after meeting Mr. Zhou did I understand what it means to be young and promising. Our two sons really need to learn more from you."
After hearing what his second son said in his ear, Mr. Li kept his expression unchanged and praised him again.
He didn't expect that the other party had created a fortune of tens of billions while he was only a young man.
What was he doing when he was twenty years old?
It’s been so long that I can hardly remember some of the unpleasant memories.
However, compared to the other party, his two sons, who seemed very outstanding in the eyes of outsiders, were somewhat insignificant.
"I should learn more from the two Li brothers."
The other party's praise made him blush a little, but Zhou Anan didn't care about the envious and jealous looks of the people around him. After responding with a few words, he hurried back to his seat.
There is no benefit in being valued by this old man Li, not to mention that the other party is just a means of socializing on the spot.
Zhou Anan would never think that he is so outstanding that even the richest man in Asia wants to adopt him as his godson. He must be joking.
"Brother An, you are so unkind. When my wife gives birth, you must give her this gift."
After the young man sat down, Lian Xiongdong made a playful remark.
The Jade Guanyin from Tianchan Temple is extremely valuable. It is said to have been consecrated personally by Master Xingsi, the abbot of Tianchan Temple, which makes it even rarer.
Given his closer relationship with his younger brother, he can't be worse than Young Master Li.
"Why, sister-in-law is pregnant?"
After hearing what Lian Ershao said, Zhou Anan, who had just eaten two bites of food to fill her stomach, asked back.
He saw that the former most beautiful woman in Hong Kong still had such a slim waist and did not look like she was pregnant.
As for what other meanings were hidden in the other party's words, he pretended not to understand.
"It's been one and a half months, but according to the customs of my generation, we won't let relatives and friends know within three months, so as not to disturb the fetus."
Speaking of the customs of the old man's generation, Lian Xiongdong was somewhat disapproving, but he did not spread them to outsiders.
If he hadn't met this little brother today, he wouldn't have revealed it in advance.
"Congratulations! Next year I will prepare the gifts in advance."
Unexpectedly, the other party really had it, Zhou Anan smiled and congratulated him.
Nowadays, women from wealthy families take really good care of themselves. Not only do you not look pregnant, but even after giving birth they recover as if they had never given birth.
"That's settled."
Picking up the wine glass, Lian Xiongdong clinked it with the other party and made an agreement.
The first birthday party for the eldest grandson of the Li family was quite formal, unlike those buffet-style banquets where everyone would move around freely.
Apart from the host couple, the second young master of the Li family, who kept toasting back and forth, few guests stood up and moved around the table, as that would have seemed disrespectful to the Li family.
This situation made Zhou Anan feel relieved, but also a little disappointed.
It’s a bit strange that no members of the Fengyun Club come to cause trouble.
He was also thinking about the cost of buying jadeite today, and someone would help reimburse him. It was really because of what happened the previous two times that he had some unrealistic expectations in his heart.
However, at the first birthday party of the eldest grandson of the Li family, those second-generations would not deliberately cause trouble, as that would be tantamount to slapping the Li family in the face, with serious consequences.
What a pity. What a pity.
"Goodbye."
"Goodbye."
After the banquet, Zhou Anan and others separated from Lian Ershao and his wife, and met Jing Wuyou in the underground parking lot. Jing Wuyou, who also came to attend the dinner, was accompanied by a young female companion with a good figure.
"Brother Zhou, what a coincidence."
Having seen the other person go on stage at the banquet before, He Wuqiu was not too surprised to meet him here. He asked the female companion next to him to get in the car first, and he walked over and greeted her with a smile.
He didn't expect that he wanted to avoid the other party and came to the underground parking lot to leave quickly, but in the end he still met him.
Now, Quanpinhui, in which he holds shares, is competing fiercely with Mingpinhui, which is invested by the other party. Although he has also invested in the science fiction blockbuster of Blue Whale Entertainment, he feels a little embarrassed to meet the other party now.
"Brother He, I didn't expect to meet you here. We are really destined to meet."
Zhou Anan responded enthusiastically. She didn't expect to meet Mr. He, who had been pursuing Miss Wang for a long time, here.
The other party's hometown is Pengcheng, and Pengcheng and Gangcheng are only separated by a sea. The wealthy people in the two places have close contacts, so it is not surprising that he was invited to attend the first birthday party of the eldest grandson of the Li family.
It seems that he has seldom heard Miss Wang mention the other party recently, and he has rarely met him in Hangzhou. He guessed that he was preparing for a strategic retreat.
"Yes, I won't bother you, Brother Zhou. Next time you come to Pengcheng, I'll treat you to tea."
There was nothing to talk about between the two of them, so He Wuqiu exchanged a few pleasantries and prepared to leave.
"Okay, see you next time."
Zhou Anan could sense the unnaturalness in the other person's expression. Knowing the reason, she didn't say much and said goodbye to him naturally.
"Why, are you feeling unwell?"
Sitting in the back seat of the Maybach, He Wuqiu noticed the unhappy expression on the face of the young girl next to him and asked casually.
"It's okay, maybe it's because I drank a little bit of wine just now."
Shaking her head, He Yangyang looked at the Rolls-Royce going away, her eyes full of complicated expressions.
She didn't expect that Li Xueer's ex-man was doing so well that he even became the protagonist at the first birthday party of the eldest grandson of the Li family. She didn't know whether Li Xueer, who was far away in Paris, would regret it after knowing this.
Just before getting in the car, the two of them met each other, but the other party was unmoved. Perhaps he simply didn't remember her after meeting her only once.
Thinking of the setbacks she had encountered in front of the other party before, He Yangyang, who had paid a heavy price for it, couldn't help but feel some hatred in her eyes.
Haha, she would never tell Li Xueer about this news.
If there is a chance, let the other person taste the feeling of being tricked.
"Then take a good rest."
He Wuqiu, who was preoccupied with his thoughts because of his encounter with Mr. Zhou, did not pay attention to the expression of his female companion. He looked out the window and fell into deep thought.
Even the Li family values this young wealthy man so much, so they have to be more careful when they continue to compete with him.
Although Quanpinhui has raised 800 million yuan from Jing Group and Ning Group, Mingpinhui, which has recently raised more than 700 million yuan, is more powerful and always has the upper hand over them.
The situation is a bit worrying.
"Mr. Zhou, let us help you up."
Seeing that the man was a little unsteady on his feet after getting out of the car, Ye Xuantong and the other man took the initiative to support each other on the left and right.
Earlier at the banquet, the young CEO did drink quite a bit of wine, but those who were chatting with the wife of the second young master of the Lian family did not drink much.
"OK."
Feeling the tenderness on his arms, Zhou Anan did not refuse such service.
"Mr. Zhou, let me pour you a glass of water."
Taking the elevator straight up to the presidential suite on the top floor, Zhou Anan leaned on the sofa, looking at Xiao Jiao who was leaning over to pour him water not far away, and couldn't help feeling warm in his heart.
