"Boy... boyfriend?"
Hao Jian's self-introduction left Zheng Shaofeng montarily stunned, but what gradually settled in was a growing anger, the kind of anger when sothing cherished is being snatched away!
As a scion of the Zheng Family and an executive, Zheng Shaofeng never had to contend for any woman he desired, as they would readily be presented to him.
Yet, no matter how powerful the Zheng Family is, they absolutely cannot forcibly take Shu Ya; after all, Shu Ya's identity as the CEO of Shu Ya Group nearly equals the stature of their family head.
Could a person of such status be forcibly taken by the Zheng Family?! Unless they don't intend to live any longer.
Of course, Zheng Shaofeng had encountered won akin to Shu Ya before, but unfortunately, he simply found them lacking in that charming aura, despite having the looks and deanor.
Then, Shu Ya appeared, making him fall in love at first sight. His uninhibited feelings eventually reached his family's ears; although a bit surprised, they didn't say much, only hinting that Zheng Shaofeng must win over Shu Ya.
As long as he could win Shu Ya over, the entire Shu Ya Group would, in essence, beco theirs, leading to a powerful alliance between the two great groups—why not aim for the world top fifty?!
But now, upon hearing that Shu Ya had a boyfriend, and it was this man, Zheng Shaofeng was furious. How could such a man possibly be Shu Ya's boyfriend?!
The woman I, Zheng Shaofeng, desire—if soone were to contest with , shouldn't their status be at least sowhat justifiable?! At least they should have certain qualifications to be my rival in love.
And now? What is with this guy's clothes?! So casual, with no coordination, utterly lacking in aura, though he appears relatively clean-cut, he gives off the impression of a kept man!
Zheng Shaofeng's eyes stared directly at Hao Jian, swiftly processing thoughts, and the more he thought, the more disdainful his gaze beca until he ultimately concluded that Hao Jian was rely a pretty boy clinging to Shu Ya.
This guy must have used sweet talk to steal Shu Ya away! Damn it, I'm definitely going to let you know that in front of , you're nothing, and if it weren't for Shu Ya backing you up, I would have tossed you out already!
To maintain my gentlemanly deanor, I'll allow you so ti to live first, but later, I must thoroughly embarrass you to the point where you dare not appear before Shu Ya again!
I mustn't... I mustn't let Shu Ya fall into this guy's toxic hands! Miss Shu Ya is currently in deep trouble, she must be rescued!
The more Zheng Shaofeng thought, the more convinced he beca that Hao Jian was indeed a poisonous parasite, endangering Shu Ya, and he firmly resolved to disgrace Hao Jian to the point where he wouldn't dare to appear before Shu Ya again!
With this in mind, Zheng Shaofeng suddenly curled his lips into a smile, and looking at Hao Jian, very elegantly asked, "Might I ask where Mr. Hao Jian is currently working? To beco Miss Shu Ya's boyfriend, Mr. Hao Jian, you must have certain strengths, right?"
Upon hearing this, Hao Jian touched his nose; in truth, he never really had a stable job. Despite having many subordinates and companies, they're almost not his concern. He's like an absentee landlord, letting others handle everything.
Strictly speaking, Hao Jian doesn't have a job, and if any at all, it was only when he first entered Shu Ya Group for a while.
Therefore, Hao Jian could only truthfully admit, even though he sowhat disliked this guy's tone, he needed to be magnanimous for Shu Ya's business.
"Currently unemployed, essentially a so-called drifter, if not for Shu Ya supporting , I'd probably starve to death."
He shrugged, many identities even if he disclosed, no one would believe, plus he indeed has no work. However, behind his words, he still made a small joke with Shu Ya, earning him a roll of her eyes.
Her expression seed to say, "You're talking nonsense, believe it or not, I'll slap you?!"
Co on, I'm just speaking the truth!
Winking at Shu Ya, Hao Jian smiled and stared at Zheng Shaofeng before him. If not for Shu Ya's business dealings with him, at first sight, he would've punched this guy instead of letting him utter so much nonsense.
"Haha, so Mr. Hao Jian is actually a drifter!"
Hearing Hao Jian's slightly humble words, Zheng Shaofeng took them seriously. This guy not only has no job, but is also a kept man by Shu Ya, and above all, a fool!
These three points were what Zheng Shaofeng concluded when he heard Hao Jian's words. Afraid no one else heard, he deliberately emphasized the phrase "drifter" with considerable sarcasm.
"But your behaviour of living off a woman like this, is it really okay?!"
Zheng Shaofeng grinned, his eyes sweeping the banquet hall, noting the disdain on people's faces, feeling even more pleased. He wanted everyone to know this kid was freeloading! This way Shu Ya would grow to loathe him, leaving the guy and it would be his chance!
At such tis, Zheng Shaofeng couldn't help but feel proud of his cleverness. This kid is so stupid, not even a fraction of his intelligence!
"Eating soft rice?"
Upon hearing this, Hao Jian's eyes showed understanding. He then shook his head with a snort, self-mocking, and smiled at Shu Ya, "Yes! I am indeed eating soft rice. If I hadn't eaten Shu Ya's soft rice, I wouldn't have known Shu Ya, nor would I have missed her!"
Hao Jian...
Upon hearing Hao Jian's words, Shu Ya's eyes suddenly showed so ripples. She then gave a knowing smile and gripped Hao Jian's small hand even tighter, afraid that the next mont, this hand would slip away from hers.
Others might think Hao Jian admitted to eating soft rice, but only she knew how they beca acquainted, and she alone understood Hao Jian's abilities the best.
The behind-the-scenes overlord of Hua City, just relying on this identity alone would make everyone present feel ashad, not to ntion Hao Jian's even stronger aspects.
"Haha! Since you admit to eating soft rice, why don't you leave Shu Ya?! Shu Ya's identity isn't sothing soone like you can cling to. She has her happiness, and your identity will only drag her down!"
Since this pretty boy doesn't have any identity, there's no need to be afraid. Therefore, Zheng Shaofeng didn't hold back and directly mocked Hao Jian, pointing his finger at him and laughing loudly, "Do you understand or not?!"
"Drag her down?"
Upon hearing this, Hao Jian smiled and looked deeply at Zheng Shaofeng, then slowly said, "Perhaps!"
"The kid from the Zheng Family is getting more and more brazen..."
The man who previously saw through Hao Jian's identity glanced at Zheng Shaofeng, his chapped lips showing a mocking curve. His eyes swept over those showing approving looks, with even more intense sarcasm on his face.
Only people like you would think Hao Jian is eating soft rice!
Shaking his head, this man continued to eat his own food, not caring about the situation at hand. Given the level of these guys now, perhaps they've heard of Hao Jian, yet are unaware of him. Maybe when they hear Hao Jian's na, they'll only think it's just a repetition.
"Haha, since you know you would drag her down, you should leave her sooner. Let
do it instead!" Hearing Hao Jian's words, Zheng Shaofeng's smile beca even brighter. It turns out this guy knows that continuing like this would drag Shu Ya down. With this thought, it becos even easier!
"Hehe..."
Hao Jian was about to continue teasing this smug guy when Shu Ya suddenly tugged his palm, making him pause.
"Zheng..."
Then Shu Ya intended to speak up, causing tenderness to appear on his face. He then reached out to stop her, chuckling and saying, "It's nothing to , just don't ruin your business."
Upon hearing the initial words, Shu Ya's face showed slight anger. She's been bullied all the way to her doorstep, and yet he's still planning to tolerate this guy?!
But upon hearing Hao Jian's next words, those angry eyes transford into tenderness. She lightly patted Hao Jian's chest without speaking, but the aning was understood by the two.
It turned out that Hao Jian refrained from speaking up more out of character to swallow the cold taunts, all for her sake!
With deep eyes eting Shu Ya's gaze, a smile appeared on his lips. Over the years, he had long moved past these things. He couldn't control what people said, so let them talk as they pleased.
As long as it didn't interfere with Shu Ya's business negotiations this ti. If it did, then they couldn't bla him for being rciless. Even though Mingzhu City is far from Hua City and his influence hadn't reached here.
Yet, he believed these issues definitely wouldn't be obstacles!
Damn it! This... this pretty boy!
Witnessing these two being affectionate right in front of him, Zheng Shaofeng's face beca more unsightly, but he felt more secretly pleased. Just because Hao Jian stopped Shu Ya from speaking up for him, he saw this as fear!
Of course, while being angry and secretly pleased, his view towards Hao Jian grew more contemptuous. Is such a timid and cowardly man even a man?!
Timid and cowardly!
A man who only hides behind a woman isn't a man at all! From start to finish, he didn't know how many tis he had mocked Hao Jian, yet this man still showed no reaction...
