672 Where did Madam Go Wrong?
Shen Hanxing’s expression suddenly turned cold. She said to Su Ling rudely, “Otherwise, why would my Mr. Ji work so hard to develop Ji Corporation? Is it so that we have to swallow our anger when others bully us? No, it’s so that when someone bullies us, we can ruthlessly step on them! So, Miss Su, since you’re the one who can’t see the situation clearly, don’t blame us for bullying you.”
Shen Hanxing’s words were not polite at all. However, Ji Yan stood quietly at the side and looked at Shen Hanxing with a faint smile in his dark eyes. There was an indescribable gentleness in his eyes. It was obvious that he supported Shen Hanxing’s words.
Shen Hanxing crossed her arms in front of her chest and looked around coldly with her clear eyes. She then lifted her chin and said, “Didn’t you want me to talk? All right, then I’ll say a few words today. Not only do I think that Mr. Ji did nothing wrong, but I also think that he did a great job!” Ji Yan was protecting her! If she still thought that Ji Yan had done something wrong at this time, wouldn’t she be a fool? Shen Hanxing lifted Ji Yan’s chin with her slender and fair fingers, her action seductive and bold. She kissed Ji Yan’s lips lightly and murmured, “Not only do I not think that my Mr. Ji has done anything wrong, I even think that he’s extremely sexy. This makes me love him even more.”
Ji Yan’s eyes suddenly darkened. He pinched Shen Hanxing’s waist and rubbed it a few times with great restraint. Then, he let go. Wasn’t his wife afraid that he wouldn’t be able to control himself if she teased him in such a situation?
“You said you want to be Mr. Ji’s uncle, but President Lu is someone who runs a company after all. Even if there’s no mirror at home, couldn’t you take a look at yourself on your phone screen?” Shen Hanxing did not notice Ji Yan’s reaction after the kiss. She turned to Lu Guo and sneered coldly, “Not to mention your status and ability, just look at your face. What kind of horrendous-looking person would dare to claim to be Mr. Ji’s relative?”
Lu Guo’s face instantly turned the color of a pig’s liver. A middle-aged man like him did not have much care for his image. He had a big belly and was a little bald. Even in the eyes of ordinary people, it was difficult for them to call him handsome, let alone in front of Ji Yan. But had he meant this when he asked Ji Yan to call him uncle? He had obviously been trying to use his age and seniority to suppress him, but he did not expect Shen Hanxing to mock his age and appearance in his face! It was simply a great humiliation! Lu Guo’s hands trembled in anger as he roared in a trembling voice, “President Ji, are you going to let your wife say such arrogant words?!”
“Is there anything wrong with what Madam said?” Ji Yan raised his head with a cold expression and slowly adjusted his sleeves: “My grandfather only had one son and one daughter, my father died early, and my aunt is still in jail. So, which uncle is President Lu supposed to be?”
How could Ji Yan have said this so casually? One of his family members died early and the other went to jail. Was this something to bring up in the open? However, Ji Yan did not feel embarrassed at all. Instead, he said it with confidence. When he didn’t feel embarrassed, the one who was getting humiliated would be the most embarrassing one! Lu Guo was about to die from anger!
“President Ji’s words seem to be a little too harsh.” At this moment, a disapproving voice was heard, causing everyone to be shocked. Who would dare to go against Ji Yan and Shen Hanxing at this time? What good would it do to offend Ji Corporation? That person had a death wish! On the other hand, Lu Guo’s eyes lit up. He was grateful, but also a little excited. Everyone looked at the person who spoke with different thoughts. After seeing the person who spoke, their faces revealed a bit of relief. It was the Zhuang family’s Second Young Master, Zhuang Li. With the Zhuang family’s support, no matter how arrogant Ji Yan was, he would not dare to fight to the death with Zhuang Group. No wonder Zhuang Li dared to speak up!
The neatly-clad Zhuang Li proudly raised his head to meet everyone’s gazes, feeling a sense of pride in his heart. As expected, this was the best time for him to make an appearance. Even though he had not taken over Zhuang Group yet, he vaguely felt that being the center of attention was the best match for him! He was supposed to stand in the crowd and let everyone look up to him!
Zhuang Li had spoken up for Lu Guo only after careful consideration. The Lu Corporation’s developmental momentum was very strong. There was no need for him to investigate it personally, he could tell just by looking at the situation during this period. Initially, these things had nothing to do with him. It was the Lu Family’s fault for offending Shen Hanxing and causing Ji Yan to be hostile to the Lu family. No matter how the Lu Family developed, it was impossible for them to surpass the three major aristocratic families in S City. If they wanted to remain safe even under Ji Yan’s attack, the best choice for the Lu Family would be to find Zhuang Group or Wei Corporation as their backing to go against Ji Corporation.
