He Zhuoyuan showed no remorse whatsoever, and just kept forcing a smile.
"Ranran, please don't misunderstand. She's my aunt's daughter, my cousin! She's new to the city and hasn't seen much of the world, so my mom asked me to take her out for a stroll."
"This girl doesn't know her place; how can she just casually link arms with a man?"
"I almost caused you to misunderstand—"
When Chen Xi heard him so eager to sever ties with her, sparks practically flew from his eyes!
But just then—
The newly purchased jewelry in her hand suddenly flashed, and her anger instantly subsided.
Chen Xi knew very well that everything she had was given to her by He Zhuoyuan!
He was very concerned about the woman in front of him. If she ruined his plans, he would definitely not get the better of her!
Chen Xi could only suffer in silence, scrambling to his feet and becoming a mere accessory without uttering a sound.
[Shut up! You're just making things worse. Your sister-in-law isn't mentally challenged!]
"This is your problem, it has nothing to do with me. We have other things to do, so we'll be leaving now."
Shen Yuran wanted to finish the fight quickly and didn't want to get entangled with him.
"Wait! Ranran, we haven't seen each other for so long, you should give me the honor of inviting you and—"
He Zhuoyuan's gaze paused for a moment.
The moment he saw Yan Miao, his mouth was practically watering!
Yan Miao is delicate and pretty. Even when she looks at someone with displeasure, her big eyes still make her look exceptionally charming.
This is exactly his type!
He immediately put his hands in his pockets, striking what he thought was a very cool pose, "This little sister, come along too! I've booked a fancy restaurant; it's usually very difficult to get a reservation there!"
With their backgrounds, even though their families are quite strict, they definitely have their own ways of making money!
He Zhuoyuan thought that this would attract naive young girls.
But the person opposite me is Yan Miao!
Yan Miao could only be coaxed out by Yan Xu with a luxury cruise ship worth hundreds of millions!
[A tadpole with a frog tattooed on it, what are you pretending to be, your mother?!]
Yan Miao curled her lips into a disdainful smile.
Only those who are good-looking can be called "Sea Kings" (or "Sea Kings"); those who are ugly can only be called "Water Ghosts" (or "Water Ghosts").
He Zhuoyuan has neither a good figure nor good looks, but he does have a big face!
Shen Yuran spoke up first, "Sure, but you have to book the whole place for us to eat! Otherwise, the young lady won't be interested, and you'll be embarrassed if she says something really nasty!"
Wuhu!
Yan Miao immediately adopted an arrogant attitude, scrutinizing him from head to toe.
She likes her spoiled and willful nature!
With just one sentence, He Zhuoyuan's escape route was completely blocked!
He was also reminded that Yan Miao came from a very privileged family and would not care about such petty gains!
Don't even think about making a move on her!
With her sister-in-law protecting her, Yan Miao obediently put away her claws and cooperated fully with her actions.
The two walked past He Zhuoyuan and left.
He Zhuoyuan, however, was like a leech, following them wherever they went!
"Ranran, I just wanted to invite you to a simple meal! After all these years, don't you know how I feel?"
“Your uncle also wants the two of us to be together. Even if you don’t think about yourself, you should think about your parents! They are getting old and just hope that you can settle down and have a loving and happy marriage.”
"You have to give me a chance, you can't just kill me off like that, can you?"
He Zhuoyuan, unwilling to give up, stopped them.
With just one sentence and a dozen feints, he tried his best to show off.
Yan Miao was so disgusted by his slickness that she wanted to vomit!
[Ugh! You greasy man who wants a home with every woman, stay away from my sister-in-law! I've never seen you so enthusiastic before; if you hadn't gotten into trouble recently, you wouldn't be this obsequious!]
What did He Zhuoyuan do wrong?
Shen Yuran was quite curious; she could certainly tell that his attitude towards her was different from before!
Although Uncle He was of a lower rank than her father, he was still quite successful and was someone many people fawned over.
He Zhuoyuan was used to people asking his family for favors, and he had always acted like a spoiled brat since he was a child, rarely listening to his family.
Even though both families had tried their best to bring them together, He Zhuoyuan only said a few nice words and did not take any real action.
His actions today are indeed suspicious!
[Sister-in-law, don't be fooled by his sweet talk! He Zhuoyuan recently started dating a female college student, taking her shopping and to high-end clubs every day, completely infatuated with her! Not only did she willingly have sex with him, but she also got pregnant!]
The girl wanted to use her pregnancy to advance her social standing, and she didn't tell him until she was three months pregnant. What kind of person is He Zhuoyuan? He wouldn't be hung up on one woman. Of course, he didn't agree to let her give birth and gave her money to have an abortion!
The girl, blinded by months of wealth and luxury, refused to have an abortion and even moved back to school from the apartment He Zhuoyuan had rented for her, intending to give birth! He Zhuoyuan panicked and spread rumors of her pregnancy, hoping to force her to have an abortion through public opinion!
The incident quickly escalated, alarming the school and even the girl's parents! Terrified, she tried to contact He Zhuoyuan, only to find his phone number had been cancelled and his apartment had been terminated! She only knew his name, nothing else. In despair, she jumped from the school roof, suffering a horrific fall!
After the girl's family reported the incident to the police, the police traced He Zhuoyuan through chat and call records. However, He Zhuoyuan had taken precautions; all discussions about the pregnancy were conducted face-to-face, and he never left any substantial evidence. Given the girl's actions constituted suicide, and considering his special background, the police were helpless due to a lack of evidence.
When He Zhuoyuan's father found out, he was greatly disappointed in him, and it seemed he was going to give up on him! Only then did he begin to panic, remembering how both sets of parents had wanted to match him with his sister-in-law, hoping to regain his father's attention in the process!
Now, when he sees his sister-in-law, it's like a lapdog seeing a bone—his eyes light up, and he's unwilling to let go!
I never imagined He Zhuoyuan could be so disgusting behind the scenes!
The thought of that girl falling from the building made Shen Yuran's stomach churn!
Uncle He is an upright and honest man, how could he have given birth to a son who disregards human life!
His father isn't any better. He knows his son is a womanizer who caused someone's unborn child's death, yet he only gave him a simple warning! Sister-in-law, it's best to avoid contact with their family!
yes!
Shen Yuran felt that Yan Miao's words made sense.
If this had happened in the Shen family, their bones would have been broken!
Then he was taken away to turn himself in!
Her dad is extremely intolerant of any flaws!
While complaining, Yan Miao glared sharply at He Zhuoyuan, showing her strong sense of righteous indignation!
He Zhuoyuan felt uneasy under their gaze, and he awkwardly smoothed his hair.
Why are they both looking at me like that?
"Ahem, if you don't say anything, I'll take that as a yes!"
"My cousin is going back to be with her mom, so it's just the three of us going. No one else will bother us!"
He Zhuoyuan has not forgotten his purpose!
Chen Xi was so angry she wanted to grind her teeth!
I promised to go shopping with her, but now I've treated her like trash and dumped her aside!
