"Isn't that Zhou Qiaoqiao, President Zhou from the Zhou family? What's she doing at our company?"
"Holy crap! Those legs, that figure, that face - I'm in love! She's on par with our President Shen. I don't know why Young Master Xu doesn't fancy President Zhou."
"Only kids make choices! Adults want it all!"
"Alright, alright, stop dreaming. Both of them are women you'll never have in this lifetime."
"Hey, isn't that Li Ming, the head of the investment department at Xu Corporation? Why is he here too?"
The employees of Shen Corporation turned into spectators.
Their inner gossip souls ignited.
Zhou Qiaoqiao hadn't forgotten Xu Mo's words.
From afar, she had been keeping a close eye on this area.
Her gaze was incredibly sharp!
Searching for Lin Fan's figure.
Accompanying her were the Zhou family's bodyguards.
If they found Lin Fan, she'd have her bodyguards cause some trouble for him.
Just to delay things a bit!
In any case, she couldn't let this Lin Fan have a chance to tip off Shen Manni.
As they entered,
They didn't see Lin Fan anywhere.
In the morning, Lin Fan had seriously lost face. He only took the security job to get close to Shen Manni.
It wasn't to make a living.
So most of the time, Lin Fan was in a state of absenteeism.
"May I ask what brings President Zhou to our company?" Shen Manni's personal secretary came out to greet them.
Zhou Qiaoqiao instantly channeled her inner Oscar-winning actress, getting into character in a second. Her brows furrowed with slight anger, her tone somewhat displeased.
"President Xu has sent me to deliver a grand gift to your company!"
"What kind of gift?" the secretary asked instinctively.
Zhou Qiaoqiao said sarcastically, "Your company's business must really be booming if even a mere secretary dares to question me."
The secretary's face paled, and she apologized repeatedly, "I'm sorry, President Zhou. I'll go notify President Shen right away."
Shortly after, Shen Manni appeared, accompanied by her father, Shen Cheng.
Upon hearing the news, Shen Cheng worried his daughter couldn't handle it alone.
So he came along with her.
After all, Zhou Qiaoqiao was no pushover.
The two women's gazes clashed in mid-air.
One an ice beauty, the other a fiery vixen.
Both were rare gems in this world.
Either one would be fatally attractive to any man.
Experience trumps youth.
Shen Cheng's face broke into a foxy smile as he greeted them, "President Zhou, may I ask what brings you to our corporation?"
"I heard from Manni's secretary that you have a gift for us. We shouldn't accept favors without reason, so please convey our thanks to Young Master Xu in advance."
The benefits Xu Mo had brought to the Shen family were simply too numerous.
And now another grand gift.
When Shen Cheng came over, his steps were noticeably quick!
"Heh... old fox!" Zhou Qiaoqiao sneered inwardly.
Shen Cheng spoke of not accepting favors without reason, but he hadn't explicitly stated they wouldn't accept this gift!
It seemed he was planning to observe the situation first.
Before making a final decision.
Zhou Qiaoqiao didn't respond, instead looking around.
"Chairman Shen, is this how your company treats guests? Talking business outside? Are you sure?"
Shen Cheng pondered for a moment. Regardless of whether they'd accept the gift or not,
At least they couldn't fail in etiquette.
"President Zhou, please, let's talk in the conference room."
Shen Cheng was quite the old hand himself.
Xu Mo liked his daughter.
He knew this full well, and had considered matchmaking the two.
But his daughter adamantly refused!
He had no choice in the matter.
Even so, Xu Mo would still send over cooperation agreements and business deals.
Over time, he subconsciously began to view Xu Mo as a little god of wealth.
This visit might also bring good fortune.
"Damn! Is Young Master Xu always this generous? Sending his fiancée to deliver money to our President Shen."
"My god! If I had a fiancée like that, I'd definitely cherish her and treat her like a precious gem."
"It's so enviable. I wonder how Young Master Xu managed to tame President Zhou? I'd love to know."
"Don't pry into the affairs of the upper echelons of society."
In the conference room.
Shen Cheng smiled and said,
"President Zhou, can you tell us what this gift is now?"
As the saying goes, you don't hit a smiling face.
Zhou Qiaoqiao was no exception, "It's regarding Hongtu Real Estate."
Zhou Qiaoqiao's calm voice
Gave the Shen father and daughter quite a shock!
Hongtu Real Estate was a juicy piece of meat.
They also wanted to acquire it!
But the priority right to acquire was with the Xu family. If the Xu family didn't let go, they had absolutely no way to get it!
Shen Cheng excitedly stood up and said, "President Zhou, is what you're saying true?!"
Zhou Qiaoqiao nodded without hesitation.
At this, Shen Cheng became even more delighted.
Although Shen Manni was equally pleased, she felt something was amiss about this situation.
How could Zhou Qiaoqiao, who usually disagreed with Xu Mo and was his fiancée in name only, willingly come here as his spokesperson?
Surely someone of her status, a proud daughter of heaven, wouldn't want to do this, right?
Was she being forced?
That seemed even more unlikely.
Shen Manni understood Zhou Qiaoqiao's temperament, just as the other understood hers.
The two women's ways of doing things were extremely similar in some aspects.
They were both the type who disliked being forced to do things.
"President Zhou, before we continue, could you answer a question for me? Why are you willingly acting as President Xu's messenger?"
The first confrontation began!
Shen Manni and Zhou Qiaoqiao's gazes locked!
Zhou Qiaoqiao's expression remained unchanged.
But Li Ming and the others had already started to panic.
Zhou Qiaoqiao was not easy to deal with.
Shen Manni was no pushover either.
The silent war between women
Can sometimes be more brutal and heart-stopping than two men grappling and beating each other!
Li Ming didn't dare to breathe loudly.
Afraid they might give themselves away.
Then, Zhou Qiaoqiao put on an extremely disappointed expression.
"You think I want to be here? That bastard said to first offer Hongtu's shares to the Shen family. Only if the Shen family doesn't accept can the Zhou family make a move."
Then she switched to an expression of resentment and unwillingness.
"And to think I'm still his fiancée."
"He thinks of outsiders first for good things. This marriage clearly can't go on. The sooner we separate, the sooner I'll be free!"
Zhou Qiaoqiao portrayed the role of an aggrieved wife to perfection.
To onlookers, it really seemed quite convincing.
After she finished speaking, the silence was more powerful than any words.
The Shen father and daughter simultaneously realized why Li Ming had come along.
It was to prevent Zhou Qiaoqiao from not relaying Xu Mo's instructions clearly and completely.
That's why someone from Xu Corporation was sent to accompany her.
Brilliant!! It was simply too brilliant!
Shen Cheng even felt like kissing Xu Mo's face a few times.
This was truly a god of wealth!
And when sending wealth, he thought of the Shen family first!
What a good kid!
Too bad his daughter just couldn't see it, nothing he could do about that!
The Shen family had grown accustomed to enjoying Xu Mo's benefits, and they didn't see them as favors, but as things that rightfully belonged to the Shen family.
The saying "A favor of a pint breeds resentment of a pound" would be an understatement.
"Haha... My worthy nephew has really put his heart into this. If only he were my son-in-law, how wonderful that would be."
Shen Cheng laughed smugly.
young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately... From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
e school belle recognized by the whole school, a genius girl from the kendo club. She also has a hidden identity, the youngest legendary demon hunter. Chen Shuo just transmigrated and found himself turned into a weak, helpless little vampire. He was caught by Su Xiyen and taken home at the very beginning. Since then, Chen Shuo's life creed only had two items. "First, classmate Su Xiyen is always right." "Second, if classmate Su Xiyen is wrong, please refer back to item one." Many years later, Chen Shuo, who had turned back into a human, led a pair of twins to appear in front of all the vampires to share the secret of how he turned back into a human. "It's simple, I tricked a female demon hunter into becoming my wife!"
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
