“Manxi, it’s my fault that mom has never had time to accompany you.” Bai Jiya took the initiative to approach Shen Manxi, her eyes a little wandering.
"The sun is rising from the west? Just say what you mean, Ms. Bai. Don't be sarcastic. I can't get used to it."
"Look, my daughter is straightforward, and she is like me in this respect. I actually like you very much, you just need to listen to your mother. Your mother will treat you well with all her heart." Bai Jiya changed her attitude, and it seemed that she suddenly repented.
"Don't be a weasel paying New Year's greetings to a chicken. Let's go our separate ways. There's no need for you to try to get close to me. And I don't need to try to please you either."
"Haha... yes, you are someone who can do great things. People who can do great things have very broad minds, like the sea that can accommodate all rivers, right?" Bai Jiya looked up at her, her tone tentative.
"so what?"
"Mom just hopes you won't compete with Qi Wen. This contract is her credit, right? The celebration banquet is of course prepared for Qi Wen. Mom hopes you don't dress too ostentatiously, otherwise you will steal her limelight." Bai Jiya handed over a bag of clothes.
Shen Manxi took it and threw the clothes to the ground. She even stepped on it and said, "I look down on things that are given out of pity. Besides, can she take the credit for my work just like that? This is not up to you guys to decide."
"I gave you face, didn't I? And you still challenge mom." The eldest brother Shen Mingxuan jumped up from the sofa and rushed to Shen Manxi.
She grabbed his fist with one hand, and with just a little force, Shen Mingxuan seemed to hear the sound of his bones breaking.
He was about to kick her, but she kicked him back.
"No way? You little bastard, how could you possibly beat me? That's too embarrassing."
"Do you believe I will destroy you today? Don't act like a boss in front of me. I've never been afraid of anyone. I haven't learned to give in either. Why should I give up my things to others? Can you even give up your wife to someone else?"
Facing the high-profile Shen Manxi, Shen Mingxuan was furious. However, he also wondered why this girl was so good at fighting. If he fought hard, he would suffer.
He gave the fourth brother a look, and Shen Mingjie came over: "What? Are you reluctant to give up? You should consider our Shen family. Qi Wen has been in the Shen family for over 20 years. Her reputation is also the reputation of our Shen family. Tu Meimei, if you can agree to give up, I will definitely invite you to be the protagonist of my next music video."
"Bah! Can you afford it? I've seen people bragging, but I've never seen a family as full of bragging as you. There's no way I'll give in, and I don't even want to shoot any MV for you." She glanced at the nonchalant Shen Mingjie and was too impatient to say another word to her.
He pressed on: "You're not going to accept my toast? I think you're just being too arrogant! Usually, everyone fawns over me, and you, a country boy, are so disrespectful to me. Don't you want to be with me anymore?"
"It's ridiculous. It's someone else who's trying to curry favor with you. We both have the surname Shen, but my heart is cleaner than yours. To be honest, even if you want to spend a lot of money to play my supporting role, I won't agree. Now that things have come to this, I'll make it clear to you. You have to understand that I only want what belongs to me." Her calmness and her composure surprised the Shen family.
Of course, Shen Ting finally showed up. His face was ashen and he coughed heavily.
"Whether you like it or not, whether you like it or not, it's settled. This celebration party is for Qiwen. No one who is not involved needs to come to the party."
"Please don't take back what you said. If the time comes, I won't go even if you beg me on your knees. You'll have to take care of yourself."
After Shen Manxi finished speaking, he left the house without looking back.
The Shen family held a grand banquet to celebrate the occasion. Shen Qiwen held Bai Jiya's hand and toasted the heavyweights in the business world.
When it was time for the speakers to speak, the host said in a sweet voice, "Now, please welcome Ms. Shen Qiwen to the stage to speak. She has facilitated a major real estate development project for both the Shen and Li companies. Ms. Shen is a business genius. Everyone, give her a warm welcome."
Shen Qiwen walked up lightly. At this moment, she felt like she was the queen.
"Thank you all for coming, and thank you to my parents. Today, our Shen Group has successfully signed a real estate development project with the Li Group. This is a major event for our Shen Group, and also a rare opportunity..."
The people in the audience were talking about it.
"She is indeed a lady from a noble family. Her conversation is truly extraordinary."
"Miss Shen is truly young, beautiful, and accomplished!"
"What?! It's said that it's fake. She's really prettier than her, but she was hidden for the sake of the family's reputation."
"It's not bad to be fake. He has received higher education and has seen the world. He can even handle a contract as big as Li's."
Amidst the noise, Li Jingyan arrived at the scene surrounded by several bodyguards.
When he saw that the woman on the stage with a beaming face was not Shen Manxi, his face turned very ugly.
"She wasn't the one who signed the contract with me, so why is this woman on the stage?" He questioned Li Yi beside him. Secretary Li was also confused.
Shen Ting came forward, but Li Jingyan did not shake the hand he extended.
"Boss Li, I'm sorry for not coming to meet you in person." Shen Ting immediately apologized with a smile.
"Our contract with your Shen family is invalid. How can you fool people like this? It was clearly Miss Shen Manxi who signed the contract with me, and now you have found a naive person to take credit for it. Where do you put Miss Manxi?" Li Jingyan accused Shen Ting harshly.
"Our cooperation will be cancelled immediately unless Miss Shen Manxi talks to me in person." Li Jingyan turned around and left domineeringly, while Shen Ting was stunned.
He raged at Bai Jiya: "Useless thing! You've been bullying me all day, and now you've caused such a huge mess. Our multi-million dollar project is about to go to waste."
"What should I do? What should I do? Brother Ting, what should I do?" Bai Jiya was stunned when she heard the huge loss. She burst into tears.
"What's the point of crying? Crying won't help. Go and apologize to Manxi."
Shen Qiwen, who had just walked over, burst into tears immediately: "I'm sorry, Mom and Dad, it's all my fault. I'll go and beg my sister right away. I will definitely ask my sister. Please don't worry."
"But will she help us? It seems like she's hooking up with a rich man."
"It might be that old man. Last time I saw my sister get into an old man's car. She must be playing both sides." Shen Qiwen said with certainty.
"It's really degenerate, but we still have to beg her." Bai Jiya felt that there was no other way.
For the sake of hundreds of millions of profits, he asked Shen Manxi to surrender even if he had to kneel down.
This is a great opportunity for Shen's development.
