Chapter 225: Chapter 225: Don’t Touch ! Chapter 225: Chapter 225: Don’t Touch ! Xia Wenjin was clearly stunned. “What did you say? Justin is engaged to the Song Family? With whom? Song Keren?”

She gripped Cao i’s arm tightly, looking at her in disbelief. “Mom, tell this isn’t true!”

Although she wasn’t fond of Justin, his prospects were still quite good; at least dostically, he wouldn’t be outdone by Lu Zhaozhao.

But why would a man like him want to marry Song Keren?

Cao i was in pain from her grasp and hurriedly took Xia Wenjin’s hand, explaining, “Actually, Justin was interested in both of you, but ever since the incident with the drama crew, his side…”

Even without Cao i finishing, Xia Wenjin understood what she was implying.

She had a chance, and it was all because of Song Keren!

Xia Wenjin thought of this and her eyes suddenly widened a lot. “It’s Song Keren! That bitch!”

How could she have not realized it?

She always considered Lu Zhaozhao a thorn in her side, completely forgetting that she was a thorn in soone else’s side too.

Especially after she had just sabotaged Song Keren, how could she possibly let her off the hook?

This was all Song Keren’s conspiracy!

Xia Wenjin clenched her teeth in fury and was about to climb out of bed. “I need to see Justin!”

Just as she was about to get out of bed, she was yanked back by Lu Dagui and thrown onto the bed. “Are you crazy?! You’re about to marry Xiao Mo and you’re still making a fuss about this?”

Seeing this, Cao i quickly hugged Xia Wenjin to comfort her. “Jin, Justin and Song Keren are already engaged, and they’ll be married soon. Even if you find him now, it’s aningless.”

“How is it aningless? I have to tell him that all this was a sche by Song Keren!” Xia Wenjin was like a person possessed. “It was that bitch’s plot!”

Cao i and Lu Dagui exchanged glances, both of their brows furrowed.

“There’s no evidence for this matter; Justin won’t believe it, and continuing to struggle like this might even affect the engagent with the Song Family.”

Cao i tried to communicate with Xia Wenjin in a calm tone.

Recently, the situation with the Lu Group’s two mining veins had been very unfavorable. If this continued, the Lu Group might be finished.

They desperately needed the help of other companies.

Lu Dagui had originally thought that if Xia Wenjin could marry Justin, they could secure a partnership with the XJ Group, which would allow them to thrive dostically.

But he hadn’t expected Xia Wenjin to be so disappointing.

Now if the engagent with the Song Family was also lost, it would be a great loss indeed.

Lu Dagui sighed softly, “Although Xiao Mo isn’t a direct descendant of the Song Group, he is the nephew of Xiao Jinglan and is said to be highly esteed by the old patriarch. His status in the Song Group is second only to Song Sinian. You won’t be mistreated if you marry into their family.”

Xia Wenjin clenched her fists. “I don’t want it.”

“Even if you’re unwilling, you still have to go! Not only do you have to marry over there, but you also have to convince Xiao Mo to invest in our family…”

Lu Dagui hadn’t finished speaking when Xia Wenjin’s eyes suddenly widened. “Why do I have to do all this? Are you sending there just for this?”

She looked at Lu Dagui in disbelief. “How is this different from selling your daughter?”

Xia Wenjin had already been suffocating from all the recent ssy affairs, and now hearing Lu Dagui telling her to get married, and on top of that, to seek investnt from Xiao Mo…

She exploded instantly.

She looked at Lu Dagui with a cold laugh, “Do you think I’ll be as foolish as Lu Zhaozhao? I will not be manipulated by you!”

“Slap!”

A crisp slap echoed through the room.

Lu Dagui glared fiercely at Xia Wenjin, “You still have the nerve to talk, but everything good you’re eating and drinking right now is thanks to the cooperation Zhaozhao secured from the Song Group!”

Before, he had asked Lu Zhaozhao to go on a blind date with Song Sinian. Not only had she obediently gone, but she had also directly registered their marriage with him.

Although it was a bit rushed, she had obtained the orders and money from the Song Group in full.

Unlike Xia Wenjin.

The more Lu Dagui compared the two, the more unpleasant he found Xia Wenjin.

He glared at her, “If you don’t marry Xiao Mo, you stand no chance with any eligible bachelors in the Beijing Circle. Are you planning to marry an older man as a concubine?”

“Master!” Cao i imdiately interrupted Lu Dagui, “I will persuade her properly, you should leave first.”

Lu Dagui was fuming, and if Xia Wenjin continued to argue with him, she could very well be sent off to marry an older man.

Lu Dagui glared at Xia Wenjin resentfully, then turned and left.

Cao i looked at Xia Wenjin’s disheveled hair and the swollen half of her face, wanting to tenderly wipe her cheeks, but Xia Wenjin slapped her hand away.

“Don’t touch !”

Xia Wenjin’s eyes bore hatefully into Cao i, seemingly lumping her together with Lu Dagui.

Cao i’s heart clenched.

She took a deep breath and still patiently said, “Jin, listen to , your father’s company has been having so difficulties recently…”

“Ha, he’s got two of the most coveted ore veins in the Shangjing Circle in his hands. Who would believe his company has problems?”

Xia Wenjin didn’t wait for Cao i to finish, her sarcasm bubbling forth.

Although she hadn’t paid much attention to Lu Dagui’s company, she had heard her classmates ntion it enviously, deliberately or not.

So, she knew a little bit about it.

Cao i sighed softly, “We thought the sa before, but except for a truckload of decent rough stones at the beginning, the rest of the quality… has problems.”

If they sold this batch of rough stones, their reputation would be completely ruined.

And the Lu Family would be finished.

So now, they could only seek cooperation with companies that had resources in other mines, mixing good and bad rough stones together to weather the storm.

She had heard that Lu Dagui intended to target the small mine owned by Song Sinian.

Rumors said the quality of the rough stones there was so good it was infuriating.

But that mine was privately owned by Song Sinian, and it was said to be a purchase for Lu Zhaozhao.

If they hadn’t burned bridges with Lu Zhaozhao, it would have been easy to ask her for help now.

Cao i even regretted that they might have acted too hastily then.

She rembered when Xia Wenjin had returned to the Lu Family, she told her how she was mistreated by the Xia Family.

If it hadn’t been for that, she wouldn’t have been so nasty to Lu Zhaozhao, at least their relationship wouldn’t have soured like this.

When Xia Wenjin first ca to the Lu Family, she wanted to collect evidence to deal with the Xia Family, but she found that what she investigated didn’t quite match what Xia Wenjin had said.

But at that point, Xia Wenjin had already been interacting with her for a while, so the matter was dropped.

“So because of this, you want to sell to Xiao Mo?” Xia Wenjin didn’t care about any hidden troubles between Cao i and Lu Dagui.

She ca to the Lu Family to be their precious daughter; she cared nothing for their ssy affairs!
