Chapter 215: Let’s See Who Will Have The Last Laugh

In a marriage between rich and powerful families, other than focusing on the integration and utilization of resources and entanglement of various interests, there was also the phrase “Appropriately matched”. These words sounded old-fashioned, but they were extremely important. People in two different worlds would have vastly different perspectives and opinions, so it would be very difficult for them to have a happy marriage.

However, Shen Hanxing broke this rule. She had an unyielding character. She was often unconventional, but she was able to walk in this vanity fair with ease. She was young and beautiful, and her skills were superb. Every time people heard the news about her, it would renew their understanding of her.

After drinking, Wei Yong could not help but stroke his chin and ask in a gossipy manner, “Do you have any single ladies that are close to you, Mrs. Ji? It would be best if they are similar to you in terms of character and skills. Are there any?”

Shen Hanxing was stunned and then burst into laughter. She asked, “Why? Do you need a girlfriend, CEO Wei?”

“I don’t need a girlfriend, but I need a wife!” Wei Yong thickened his skin. Under Ji Yan’s sinister gaze, Wei Yong insisted on finishing his words. He said, “It’s especially hard to find a wife like you, Mrs. Ji. If you intend to get a divorce one day and want to remarry, please consider me first.”

“She won’t be getting a divorce.” Ji Yan’s face was dark as he coldly ordered Wei Yong to leave, “If you don’t have anything else to do here, then please make yourself comfortable. My wife is very busy.”

‘Tsk, this man just loved being jealous!’ Wei Yong thought sourly. He was already a step behind Ji Yan. If he wasn’t a little more thick-skinned, how would he be able to get a wife! Just looking at Shen Hanxing’s figure, face, and looks alone was enough to attract people, not to mention the fact that she was also so capable!

Those who did not know Shen Hanxing would always be stunned by her looks at first glance. However, after knowing her for a long time, the first thing they would ignore would be her looks. Her abilities and skills were enough to allow her to be independent and conquer everyone.

Wei Yong did not hide his gaze and openly expressed his admiration for Shen Hanxing. This made Ji Yan’s expression even uglier. After a long while, Ji Yan smiled sinisterly and said, “Looks like you have a lot of free time, CEO Wei. Why don’t I have a chat with you?” After saying that, he ignored Wei Yong’s struggle and forcefully dragged him to a place where no one was around so they could have a ‘friendly exchange between men’.

Shen Hanxing found it funny. She shook her head and picked up a gla.s.s of wine. Just as she put the gla.s.s of wine to her lips, she felt a piercing gaze. She felt something and looked over, only to see Zhuang Li standing in a corner of the banquet hall staring at her with a dark expression on his face.

Seeing Shen Hanxing’s gaze, Zhuang Li not only did not withdraw his gaze, he even raised his gla.s.s of wine in his hand and smiled provocatively.

Drink with him? She would only do that if she had a problem with her head. Shen Hanxing withdrew her gaze without hesitation, pretending that she did not see Zhuang Li at all.

Zhuang Li’s expression instantly darkened. He quickly stepped forward to block Shen Hanxing’s path. He said, “Miss Shen, why are you so disrespectful?” After not seeing him for a few days, Zhuang Li’s aura had undergone a huge change. In the past, he always looked at people condescendingly and his entire body exuded an air of arrogance, making people particularly uncomfortable. However, he now appeared shady. When he looked at people, his gaze was cold, like a poisonous snake lurking in the dark. It made people uneasy.

“You’re a defeated opponent, do I still need to humor you?” Shen Hanxing sneered without holding back. “I still have something to do. Second Young Master Zhuang, please make way.”

Zhuang Li’s expression darkened and he said, “Miss Shen, are you very pleased with yourself?”

Shen Hanxing smiled. “It doesn’t matter if I’m pleased or not, but I know that you’re very upset right now. I heard that you have lost the right to inherit the Zhuang Corporation, Second Young Master Zhuang?”

A vicious expression flashed across Zhuang Li’s eyes. He said, “A moment of complacency is nothing.” He looked at Shen Hanxing and icily said, “We still have to see who will have the last laugh.”

“If you can’t even get a moment of laughter right now, how can have the last laugh?” Shen Hanxing shook the red wine in her gla.s.s. She sneered and said, “If I want to laugh, I’ll laugh from the beginning to the end. I won’t be sullen and only make a comeback at the last moment. Although a desperate comeback sounds great, but who knows whether you’d be able to make a comeback and flip the situation around? Maybe others won’t even give you the chance to make a comeback at all…” After saying that, she laughed lightly and slowly left.

Zhuang Li stared at her figure, his eyes filled with malice.

Zhuang Li was not the only one who was in a bad mood. Cheng Songyang was not in a good mood either. He had lost his position as the CEO of the Ji Corporation, and he had also lost the bet with Ji Yan. Now, he was a man who lost both his position and influence and no one cared about him anymore.
