Chapter 704: There Won’t Be A Wedding
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Chen Feifei’s fragile image was reversed. With exquisite makeup, she was wearing a dark suit. She looked much more capable.
A man and a woman followed behind her. They seed to be her assistants.
When Chen Feifei walked to the upper seat and sat down, there were reporters who wanted to ask her questions. She waved her hand and quickly took control of the ho ground.
She only said two things. First, she had officially taken over the Chen Corporation from Chen Yongchang. As for Chen Yongchang, because of his health, he had gone abroad to recuperate.
No one cared about Chen Yongchang’s health. Because Chen Feifei then said two plans for the future of the Chen Corporation.
There was a round of applause below the stage. Everyone could see that the new CEO could not be judged by her appearance.
After she finished talking about the direction of the company’s developnt. Imdiately, there were reporters asking questions. Naturally, they were asking about Chen Feifei and Zhan haoze.
“You and President Zhan have been engaged for a long ti. When will the wedding be held?”
The reporter’s words made Chen Feifei smile lightly. “This reporter friend, don’t ask this question again next ti. President Zhan and I have already broken off the engagent. So there won’t be a wedding.”
What? The reporters below the stage were flashing non-stop. A few reporters stood up to ask questions.
“I’m sorry. “Chen Feifei smiled, she gestured for the reporters to be quiet. “My engagent with President Zhan was broken off a long ti ago. For so reason, it hasn’t been made public before. Today is just the right day. I’ll take this opportunity to make things clear to everyone. “Don’t drag into this next ti.”
“Miss Chen, I heard that you and President Zhan were childhood friends. Can I ask why you broke off the engagent?”
“Sorry, I can’t tell you.”
“Miss Chen, does President Zhan know that you announced the cancellation of the engagent today?”
“Of course he knows.” Chen Feifei seed to be in a difficult position. “After all, he has been waiting for this day for a long ti.”
“Miss Chen, can you explain what you an by saying that he has been waiting for this day for a long ti?”
The reporters’ questions ca one after another. Chen Feifei avoided the main point and said lightly, “Because his heart belongs to soone else.”
As Chen Feifei said that, she suddenly exclaid, “I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I made a mistake. Actually, it’s because we don’t have a good relationship. Although we’ve been childhood sweethearts for so many years, we only have the relationship of brother and sister. Please don’t misunderstand and don’t think too much about it.”
After saying this, Chen Feifei left the press conference under the protection of the security guards.
However, her last two sentences were very implicative. The reporters had caught a big piece of news.
Shi ngwan didn’t see the second half of the press conference. She only saw Chen Feifei say, “I’m sorry, I’ve already broken off the engagent with President Zhan.”Zhan Haoze ca back.
She heard it, so Zhan Haoze naturally heard it too.
Shi ngwan put down her phone and suddenly feeling a little surreal, she looked at Zhan Haoze.
The engagent was really broken off? So simple? So easy?
She imagined it, thought it was very difficult, but it was solved so easily?
She blinked and watched in a daze as Zhan Haoze walked towards the bed. He sat down in front of her. Seeing her dazed look, he reached out and caressed her cheek.
“You believe now?”
Shi ngwan bit her lip. She didn’t know what to say.
“How did you do it?”
Didn’t Chen Feifei love him very much? Why was she willing to break off the engagent?
“I did her a favor.” Zhan Haoze reached out and pulled her into his embrace. He lowered his head and gently kissed the top of her hair.
Shi ngwan allowed him to kiss her, but she felt her heart beating a little fast. She wanted to cry a little, but she also wanted to laugh. The matter was resolved just like that?
“Wanwan.” Zhan Haoze supported her shoulders and looked at her slightly red eyes. “Now, can you promise to be my girlfriend?”
His eyes were gentle and the face in front of him overlapped with the young man from before. Shi ngwan couldn’t resist this face and couldn’t resist his gentleness either.
She nodded heavily and threw herself into his arms.
..
Shi ngwan brought the dishes to the table, and Zhan Haoze set the bowl. When the two of them looked at each other, there was a faint smile in each other’s eyes.
When they sat down, Shi ngwan took the soup that Zhan Haoze served for her. At this mont, she thought she was back in the small bungalow.
Since Chen Feifei and Zhan Haoze announced that they were breaking off their engagent, Shi ngwan had been hanging out with Zhan Haoze.
Other than occasionally having to go out to deal with work, he spent most of his ti with her. This made her very satisfied.
After dinner, the two of them found a movie and stayed on the sofa to watch the movie.
Shi ngwan wanted to go out to the cinema with Zhan Haoze to experience the feeling of a date. However, every ti she had to go out to watch such a big scene, she didn’t want to go out with Zhan Haoze at all.
It was too exaggerated.
For Zhan Haoze, romantic movies were very boring. He would rather do sothing else. However, Shi ngwan was very interested in watching it.
He was so bored that he could only play with her fingers. Shi ngwan pulled her hand back and he went to grab it again.
Her hand was well-maintained, but because of years of drawing, there was a thin, extrely light cocoon where she held the pen.
He felt a little heartache when he saw it, so he took her hand and kissed it. This kind of interference made it impossible for Shi ngwan to continue watching the movie.
She pulled her hand back. “Stop fooling around.”
Zhan Haoze stopped playing with her hand and turned to wrap his arms around her waist. He watched her swallow that exquisite collarbone.
He lowered his head and kissed her. Shi ngwan pushed his head again. “I said stop fooling around.”
Just as they were about to see sothing exciting, the male and female lead broke up due to a misunderstanding. Zhan Haoze switched to kissing her hair.
“Wanwan, co back to Qing City with .”
Shi ngwan was focused when she suddenly heard this. She turned around and glanced at Zhan Haoze.
“Zhan Haoze?”
“Co back to Qing City with ,” Zhan Haoze said seriously. “I’ve been busy for the past few days. Most of my business focus has been shifted to Qing City. Wanwan, I hope you can co with to Qing City.”
Shi ngwan was silent. Before Zhan Haoze broke off the engagent, she had already thought about how they would continue if she could be together with Zhan Haoze openly one day.
She had also considered what Zhan Haoze said about going with him. Wasn’t Su Qingsang also married out of town?
However, it was one thing to have such a plan in mind, but it was another thing for the day to co.
“I need to think about it.”
“What else do you need to think about?”
Shi ngwan didn’t know what to say. Now that she was in Lin City, it would only take her two hours to go back to her house.
But when she went to Qing City, she was even further away from her parents. She originally wanted to bring her parents to Lin City, but they weren’t willing.
In two years, when Shi ngru was admitted to a foreign school, her parents wouldn’t even have a companion by their side.
“If you’re worried about your parents, you can bring them to Qing City. I have a lot of businesses in Qing City. When the ti cos, they can choose any place they want to live.”
“My parents won’t go with .”No matter how small the town was, it was still their ho.
No matter how good Qing City was, it was still soone else’s place.
“If your parents don’t want to go, I can ask soone to take care of them.”
“That’s not necessary. They’re in good health now. My dad still works in the fields every day.”
Shi ngwan looked at Zhan haoze and thought of another thing. “Let’s go back to the town tomorrow to see my parents, okay?”
Shi ngwan had a misunderstanding about Zhan Haoze, although it wasn’t a misunderstanding. But if she really wanted to go to Qing City with Zhan Haoze, she had to make her parents agree.
“Okay.” Zhan Haoze nodded. “It’s reasonable to visit your parents. Don’t worry, I’ll perform well.”
“I’m afraid that my mom won’t be able to pass.” Shi ngwan didn’t mind reminding him. “Don’t forget, you have a criminal record.”
Zhan Haoze also thought of it. He picked up Shi ngwan’s body and hugged her in his arms. “Criminal record? Is it that serious?”
“Isn’t it?”Shi ngwan raised her brows. “You have a fiancée.”
She reached out and tapped Zhan Haoze’s chest. “Thinking about it, I’m really at a disadvantage. Maybe I should get a fiancé too.”
“Wanwan.” Zhan Haoze didn’t like such a suggestion. “This joke isn’t funny.”
“I think it’s pretty good.”Shi ngwan looked serious. “After all, I haven’t really t other n before, so...”
She couldn’t finish her sentence. Zhan Haoze would allow her to et other n, but let Shi ngwan et other n? Dream on.
Shi ngwan was just casually saying that. How could she et another man?
Zhan Haoze kissed her until she couldn’t breathe. She wrapped her arms around his neck and welcod him.
This kiss slowly changed its flavor.
..
Shi ngwan was right. In Shi ngwan’s heart, Zhan Haoze was a man with a criminal record. Just look at how she kept arranging blind dates for her daughter.
To Shi ngwan, the son-in-law she wanted to find for her daughter didn’t need to be rich or capable.
There was only one rule: treat her daughter well and let her be happy.
Zhan Haoze, who had a fiancée, was obviously not within her consideration.
So when she saw Zhan Haoze enter the house with Shi ngwan, carrying all sorts of presents in his hands, not only was there not a trace of a smile on his face, but he was also very gloomy.
“Wanwan?”
Shi ngwan and Zhan Haoze had been lovey-dovey in Lin City for a few days. It wasn’t until Zhan Haoze received a call that he was going back to Qing City.
There were a lot of things waiting for Zhan Haoze to deal with in Qingc City, but he was holed up in Shi ngwan’s small apartnt in Lin City with her.
Even though Tang Hua and Zhang Yang didn’t say anything, they were already complaining in their hearts.
One had to know that although the Zhan family was suppressed to the point that they couldn’t raise their heads, Zhan Lie was still alive. Zhan Lie’s wife, Bi Shuqiao, also ca from a decent family. Now that two people and two of their sons were being monitored and locked up like they were being imprisoned, how could the Bi family be willing to accept this?
They had co to their door a few tis, but they had been blocked by others. However, the Bi family had roughly guessed sothing. Recently, there had been a lot of small movents.
Those small movents could not prevent Zhan Haoze from doing anything. However, how should Zhan Lie and Bi Shuqiao be dealt with? They still had to wait for Zhan Haoze to return to Qing City.
Zhan Haoze didn’t tell Shi ngwan about these things. He only told Shi ngwan before he fell asleep last night that if possible, he hoped to visit Shi ngwan’s parents as soon as possible.
Shi ngwan didn’t hesitate. Since she had already decided to be with Zhan Haoze. Then bringing Zhan Haoze to et his parents was a very necessary step.
Previously, the matter of Zhan Haoze having a fiancée, Shi ngwan also knew that it wouldn’t be over so quickly with Shi ngwan.
Therefore, she was already ntally prepared when she ca all the way here.
Afraid of scaring Mother Shi, Shi ngwan firmly refused to allow Zhan Haoze to bring his motorcade to the town, so now it was just the two of them.
When she heard Mother Shi calling her, she touched Zhan Haoze’s arm.
Before coming, they had already agreed that Zhan Haoze would perform today. Including how to explain to Mother Shi, it was all up to him.
“Hello, Aunty.” Zhan haoze presented the gifts in his hand with a fawning smile on his face. “These are gifts for Aunty and uncle.”
“I don’t want them.” Mother Shi didn’t even look at them and even took a step back. “I can’t accept Mr. Zhan’s gifts.”
Zhan Haoze held the bags in both hands and didn’t feel awkward standing there. “Why can’t Aunty accept them? Since I’m with Wanwan, you’re my elder. There’s nothing you can’t accept.”
“Stop.” Mother Shi’s expression changed when she heard what he said. “What did you say? You’re with Wanwan?”
Even though she was ntally prepared when she saw them appearing together, Mother Shi’s expression still changed when she heard that.
“Yes,” Zhan Haoze admitted openly. “I had a misunderstanding with Wanwan before, but now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, we’re together again.”
“Misunderstanding?” Mother Shi sneered and remained unmoved. “Is the matter of having a fiancée also a misunderstanding?”
Zhan Haoze was a little embarrassed. This couldn’t be considered a misunderstanding.
“Auntie, I’ve already resolved this matter.”
“Resolved? How?”
Mother Shi’s attitude wasn’t bad and Zhan Haoze gained so courage. “I’ve already annulled the engagent.”
Shi ngwan nodded at the side, as if she was supporting Zhan Haoze. Unfortunately, Mother Shi wasn’t moved at all.
“Is that so? When was it broken off?”
“Last week.”
Shi ngwan didn’t say anything. Zhan Haoze just stood in the courtyard with a gift in his hand.
Shi ngwan was afraid that he would get tired if he carried it for too long. She gave him a look and told him to put it down. Zhan Haoze gently shook his head at her.
The two of them didn’t miss a single thing. Mother Shi looked at Shi ngwan and suddenly spoke.
“Wanwan, President Zhan said he broke off the engagent? Is that true?”
“Yes.”
“Then how do you know that he really broke off the engagent? What if he’s lying to your face?”
“Mom.” Shi ngwan felt that Mother Shi had watched too much television. “How is that possible? He broke off the engagent at a press conference and appeared on television.”
“Is that so?”
“Of course.” Shi ngwan quickly nodded. “Mom, don’t worry. His engagent is really broken off.”
Shi ngwan wanted to say sothing else, but Zhan Haoze handed the present in his hand to her. “Auntie, believe , I’m really single now. I don’t have an engagent, and I don’t have a girlfriend. I’m serious about ngwan too.”
Even with his promise, Mother Shi still felt that sothing was wrong, but she couldn’t say what it was.
In the end, she didn’t want to hit a smiling person. She waved her hand and beckoned Zhan Haoze into the house.
The few of them had been standing in the yard talking. Fortunately, it was a busy ti for the farrs, so there was no one around. Otherwise, people might gossip if they saw them.
Shi ngwan Winked at Zhan Haoze. This ant that they had passed the test. Zhan Haoze smiled and the two of them entered the door.
Mother Shi looked at the ti. “Your father has gone to the fields and will be back for dinner soon. You guys take a seat first, I’ll go buy so vegetables.”
“Mom, I’ll go with you.”
“No need.” Mother Shi flicked Shi ngwan’s forehead. “Next ti you want to co back, let know in advance.”
When a son-in-law ca to visit, she should at least treat him well. This child didn’t even say a word.
“Mom, we’re all family. There’s no need to be polite with him.”
Shi ngwan’s reaction was to glare at her, turn around, and leave.
Shi ngwan looked at Zhan Haoze and suddenly smiled. It was as if she didn’t expect it to be so easy to pass.
Zhan Haoze was a little worried just now, but now he also relaxed.
“Look, nothing happened.”
On the way here, Shi ngwan had been very worried. Along the way, she thought, what if Mother Shi makes things difficult for him?
“It’s fine because my mom cares about .” Shi ngwan’s face was full of pride. “Do you think it’s because of you? My mom cares about , so she won’t make things difficult for you.”
“Yes.” It was rare that Zhan Haoze didn’t argue with Shi ngwan. “Your mom cares about you. She also cares about her son-in-law.”
“Get lost.” Shi ngwan hit him. “Whose son-in-law are you? Don’t randomly claim relatives.”
“If I’m not your family’s son-in-law, why did you bring here?”
While the two of them were laughing, Father Shi ca back. Unexpectedly, he saw a man at ho. He even held his daughter’s hand and stood next to her intimately. His expression didn’t look too good.
“Wanwan?”
“Dad.” Shi ngwan quickly retracted her hand and took two steps forward. “You’re back?”
“En.” Father Shi nodded. “Yes, I’m back.”
There was still mud on the bottom of his pants from working on the ground, and his face was a little dark red from the sun. At this mont, he was sizing up Zhan Haoze.
“Hello, uncle. My na is Zhan Haoze. I’m Wanwan’s boyfriend.”
Zhan Haoze stepped forward to introduce himself. It was his first ti eting his father-in-law, so he was under a lot of pressure. However, he was used to being cold, so even if he was nervous, he couldn’t show it on his face. Instead, he looked very calm and composed.
Father Shi didn’t look at him, instead, he looked at Shi ngwan. “Wanwan? When did this happen? Why haven’t I heard about it at all? Last ti when your mother said she was going to arrange a blind date for you, you didn’t object, right? At that ti, didn’t you still not have a boyfriend?”
“Dad, he’s indeed my boyfriend.”
Zhan Haoze took another step forward and introduced himself again. At the sa ti, he reached out to shake Father Shi’s hand.
“How long have you known each other?” Father Shi didn’t even look at that hand and only looked at Shi ngwan.
“We’ve known each other for a long ti.”Shi ngwan’s words made Father Shi raise his brows again. “Known each other for a long ti? Then why do you still want to go on a blind date?”
“Uh.” Shi ngwan didn’t expect Father Shi to get to the point with just one sentence. She chuckled and said, “Although we’ve known each other for a long ti, it’s only recently that we’ve gotten together. That’s why I went on a blind date.”
“Is that so?”
Father Shi didn’t say anything and only stared at Zhan Haoze. He was quite good-looking, and he looked quite decent.
Even if Father Shi hadn’t seen the world before, he knew that that suit wasn’t cheap.
He should be happy to have such a son-in-law. However, Father Shi couldn’t be happy. He looked at his daughter who was as beautiful as a flower.
No matter how he looked at Zhan Haoze, he felt like he ca to abduct his daughter. He was inexplicably unhappy. Therefore, he chose to ignore Zhan Haoze’s extended hand.
The atmosphere was a little awkward. However, Zhan Haoze’s heart was unusually strong. Even if Father Shi didn’t shake his hand, he calmly withdrew his hand.
In response to Shi ngwan’s gaze, he even patted the back of Shi ngwan’s hand in a place that Father Shi couldn’t see.
The two’s “eye contact” didn’t escape Father Shi’s eyes, and he looked at Zhan Haoze in a different way.
Now, no matter how Shi ngwan spoke, he didn’t say anything. He just stood there and stared at Zhan Haoze. When he saw Shi ngwan smiling sweetly at him, he suddenly had the urge to hit her.
Very soon, Mother Shi returned. She went into the kitchen and asked Father Shi to take a shower before coming out.
No matter what, it was Zhan Haoze’s first ti visiting. It was really inappropriate for him, covered in mud, to stand with his future son-in-law like this. Father Shi sensed the disdain in Mother Shi’s words, and his mood was a little ambivalent. When he looked at Zhan Haoze again, he was even more displeased.
But he had to listen to his wife’s words. Father Shi obediently went to take a shower. So one went into the kitchen, and the other went back to his room. Only Zhan Haoze and Shi ngwan were left in the living room again.
“I’m sorry. My Dad has never seen you before.” Shi ngwan didn’t believe what she said. She didn’t know why her dad was so hostile to Zhan Haoze when he saw him for the first ti.
“It’s okay. I understand.” Zhan Haoze nodded. “If we have a daughter in the future and another man wanted to marry her, I will be unhappy too.”
Being unhappy was an understatent. It was possible for him to even fight with others.
“Tsk, who wants to have a daughter with you?” Shi ngwan smiled and patted him. In just a short while, Shi ngru ca back.
Compared to Father Shi and Mother Shi, Shi ngru was the only one who had a good attitude toward Zhan Haoze.
“Brother-in-law? Can I call you brother-in-law?”
Shi ngru’s words attracted Father Shi and Mother Shi’s objection. “No.”
“But, isn’t he sister’s boyfriend?”
“He’s not married to her yet, so what brother-in-law is he?” Father Shi glared at his little daughter, who was siding with an outsider. “Call him Mr. Zhan.”
“ngru, right? You can call Big Brother Zhan.”
Zhan Haoze smiled and tried to smooth things over. He was handso and looked imposing. Shi ngru was thirteen years old, the rebellious age.
“Alright, Brother Zhan.” She didn’t know how to be polite at all. “You’re so handso. What do you do?”
“I started a small company.”
Zhan Haoze said it very modestly, and the corner of Shi ngwan’s mouth twitched. XM was also called a small company? Heh heh.
“Really? What company?”
“XM,” Zhan Haoze answered casually. Shi ngru nodded. However, a few seconds later, she suddenly exclaid. She took out her phone and swiped it a few tis. Finally, she looked up at Zhan Haoze with a shocked expression.
“It’s You? You’re the CEO of the company who abandoned his fiancée and had a mistress outside?”
