Liu Zheng had been waiting at the company for over two hours, but there was still no news from Lin Ruoxuan.
"This girl, why hasn’t she co over yet?" Liu Zheng said irritably.
"Young Master, the Young Mistress should be here soon, please wait a little longer."
"Wait again? She’s currently at the hospital taking care of her parents. If I keep waiting here and sothing happens to her parents, how will I explain it to the old master?"
"Didn’t we agree not to bring up the old master again?"
"No, I must remind him. I don’t want him to misunderstand anything," Liu Zheng stood up.
"But..."
"Enough, I’ve thought this through. What I need to do is make him give up on completely and never bother Ruoxuan again, or I will not forgive him!"
"..."
"Also, send soone imdiately to ensure the safety of Mr. and Mrs. Lin. If anything happens to them, you know the consequences," Liu Zheng warned coldly.
"Yes."
...
After Lin Ruoxuan returned to the hospital, Liu Yufen bombarded her with questions. Liu Yufen asked about her relationship with Liu Zheng, whether they had argued, and she answered truthfully, promising that she would no longer have any contact with Liu Zheng.
However, what she did not divulge was that Liu Zheng had already agreed to annul the engagent; he just hadn’t ntioned it in front of their parents.
...
Liu Zheng was pacing nervously in the company.
The stock prices of Liu Corporation had begun to drop again, and the pressure on him was imnse. However, he was at a loss and did not want to escalate the situation, so he called Lin Guoqiang to intervene.
"Dad, I need funds. I want to acquire Lin Corporation, but there is no liquid capital in my account. I don’t know what to do," Liu Zheng said anxiously.
"You ungrateful son! I asked you to marry Ruoxuan, and you’ve turned it into this ss!" Lin Guoqiang was furious.
"Dad, please help . Lin Corporation is Liu Family’s foundation; I absolutely cannot lose it!" Liu Zheng pleaded.
"Hmph! Is this how you supposedly care for her? I see that you just want to destroy our Liu Family. You think I don’t know that you’re breaking off the engagent with Lin Ruoxuan because of that girl Ye Xin? Let tell you, that girl is not worthy of you. She is just a poor student, not worth your ti or money. She won’t fall in love with you; she’s just using you to get close to my daughter. She is not suitable to marry you."
"Dad, I know she’s just a poor student, she’s not worthy of , but I will not allow you to insult her! Don’t forget who saved you back then! If you aren’t grateful, that’s one thing, but to slander her like this—I don’t understand what she did to offend you so much!"
"Shut up! What I am saying is true!"
"I don’t believe it. You must be slandering her just to make marry Lin Ruoxuan. I know our past bothers you, but we have already ended things, so why are you still targeting her?"
"Ended? You think marrying her will solve everything? Liu Zheng, don’t even think about it! I will make sure that Lin Ruoxuan is driven out; I cannot let her enter our door again!"
"Dad!"
"I don’t care what you think, Lin Ruoxuan can never enter the Liu Family’s door again. You must listen to !"
Liu Zheng wanted to argue, but when he heard the voice on the other end of the phone, his face turned pale, and he hung up, filled with fear.
Just now, while at the company, he received a call from an anonymous person. Thinking the person was settling scores, he hung up in panic, only to find out later that he had been recorded on video and threatened. Now, he had only two choices: do as the person said and drive Lin Ruoxuan out of the Liu Family, or negotiate to have the complaint withdrawn.
Knowing the caller was bold enough to do this, he didn’t dare to gamble.
He could not let Lin Ruoxuan find out about this, nor could he let her hate him; he had no choice but to opt for the latter!
...
After Lin Ruoxuan returned ho, she invited Lin Guodong and Liu Guodong into the house.
Liu Guodong, looking at Liu Zheng’s grim expression, said uneasily, "Ruoxuan, you’re back. We just t Zhengyi downstairs. He said he wanted to see you, that he had co to talk about the engagent."
Liu Zheng was taken aback, then sneered, "I think he’s more interested in seeing your fiancée."
"Zhengyi ca to discuss the engagent with ; you all can chat. I’m going upstairs," said Lin Ruoxuan indifferently.
After speaking, she left the living room and went to her room to rest.
Liu Zheng angrily smashed the cup on the coffee table, startling Lin Guodong.
"Brother, what’s wrong with you? What happened?"
"Get out! Get out of here now! I don’t want to see you!"
Seeing Liu Zheng so furious, Lin Guodong dared not stay any longer.
He knew it was his fault; he should have called Lin Guohua and Chen Qianqian, which would have prevented the current situation.
Not wanting to anger Liu Zheng any further, he hastily grabbed his bag and ran out.
...
"Zhengyi, our engagent ceremony is this weekend. You and Xuanxuan must be on ti. This ti, I am personally handling it; rest assured, you guys won’t be disappointed," Lin Guoqiang said.
"Uncle, let handle this matter. I will give Xuanxuan the grandest engagent party."
"You’re Zhengyi, right? Good, I’m happy to hear you say that. Don’t worry about the engagent party; I will make sure it is the most grandiose one for Xuanxuan."
"Okay."
"Let’s leave it at that for now. I’ll invite you for a drink soti."
"Alright, Uncle. Take care."
Lin Guodong watched Lin Guoqiang leave.
Once Lin Guoqiang was gone, Lin Guodong dialed Liu Zhengyi’s number.
"Zhengyi, why were you so impulsive? If you ss this up, it’s going to be really hard for us to get along in the future."
"Guodong, I know I was reckless this ti. I didn’t expect things to turn out this way, but I absolutely will not disappoint Uncle. I am determined to marry Xuanxuan."
"Zhengyi, you need to think this through thoroughly. Don’t let a small error lead to a major loss. After all, Xuanxuan is the only heir to the Liu Family, and her future is boundless," Lin Guodong advised.
"I understand. I will take so ti to calmly think about the pros and cons of this situation."
"Good, think it over carefully. Don’t act impulsively. If your mom finds out what you’ve done, it will break her heart. Make sure to sweet-talk her and not let her down, understand?"
"Yeah, I understand, Guodong. Thanks for letting know."
"Hehe, we’re brothers, aren’t we? No need for thanks. Alright, I won’t keep you from your work any longer; we’ll talk another day."
"Okay."
After hanging up the phone, Liu Zhengyi’s eyes flickered with a cold glint.
He hadn’t expected his impulsive actions to harm Lin Ruoxuan!
He couldn’t let this go easily; it was his last bargaining chip. If Lin Guoqiang really tried to corner him, he would risk his life to drag Lin Guoqiang down with him!
He was going to kill his father-in-law!
...
After hanging up the phone, Liu Zhengyi dialed his mother’s mobile phone number.
"Hello, mom!"
"Zhengyi, you bastard, how dare you betray ? Are you tired of living!"
"Mom, don’t be agitated, I genuinely fell for Xuanxuan and was compelled to act this way. Please believe ; it wasn’t intentional. I’m calling Xuanxuan now to apologize, hoping she can forgive !"
"Good! Since you realize your mistake, explain things clearly to Xuanxuan, or else, I’ll have your grandfather deal with you!"
After hanging up, Liu Zhengyi dialed Lin Ruoxuan’s phone number, and when Lin Ruoxuan saw ’Zhengyi’ displayed, her eyes narrowed.
She didn’t know what Liu Zhengyi was scheming, but she chose to ignore him, so she hung up the phone.
"Xuanxuan, Zhengyi called you again," Ye Yunxi reminded.
"Don’t bother," Lin Ruoxuan said coldly.
"Xuanxuan, do you rember what you told when you were little?"
