173 Friendship and Love

“I know.” Yi Zheng lowered his head and finished reading the information in his hand. He snorted and said, “The Yuan family? So it’s that youngest son who has long been sent overseas. Their family has always had special channels to contact hidden forces. No wonder they dare to behave atrociously in my company!”

Tang Zhe lowered his head slightly and asked carefully, “Master, how do you plan to deal with it?”

Yi Zheng threw the stack of documents on the table and leaned back in his chair casually. “I remember that their family has been doing import and export business recently?”

Tang Zhe recalled carefully and nodded solemnly. “Yes, the Yuan family sent Yuan Yi overseas back then with the intention of expanding the overseas market. In recent years, the Yuan family has been doing well overseas. I heard that they’re going to let Yuan Yi handle this part of the business completely after he graduates. After all, he’s more familiar with the business communication method there.”

“Yes.” Yi Zheng nodded and said, “Check the largest transaction order of the Yuan family in the past few days and get the customs to detain all the goods. They don’t have to care about what happens next.”

Tang Zhe was slightly stunned and immediately went down to make arrangements according to his instructions.

The Yi family could not touch the Yuan family easily because the Yuan family had a deep foundation in G City and had a complicated network. However, this did not mean that Yi Zheng could not do anything to them.

The economic lifeline of the entire city was in Yi Zheng’s hands. If they wanted to develop trade under his nose, they had to be tactful. Otherwise, they should not blame him for cutting off the wealth that their family had painstakingly built for many years!

After walking out of Yi Zheng’s company, Yuan Yi still followed Shi Man noisily. He kept talking along the way. “Manman, how is it? Did Yi Zheng almost die of anger? Have you completely gotten rid of him?”

Shi Man turned around and looked at him coldly. She did not speak. Instead, she raised her hand and pointed at the big screen of a mall not far away.

Yuan Yi looked in the direction she was pointing in confusion. The words suddenly entered his eyes and he couldn’t help but frown. “Yi Zheng still intends to marry you? Didn’t he see what we did downstairs just now? From what his secretary said, he should have seen it.”

“He saw it,” Shi Man replied firmly. Then, she turned around and sat in the front passenger seat gloomily.

Yuan Yi followed closely behind. He got in and drove to a nearby restaurant for a meal.

He asked the waiter for a private room and was about to ask what had happened in the office. However Shi Man’s phone suddenly rang.

When she picked up the phone, she realized that Shi Mu had seen the words on the big screen and was anxiously looking for her to verify it.

Shi Man complained to her brother expressionlessly, “No, he wanted to ruin my innocence and got someone to put it up.”

Shi Mu was instantly furious when he heard this. He gritted his teeth in hatred. The phone was filled with the sound of him grinding his teeth. “Just wait, I’ll avenge you! This shameless Yi Zheng, I’ll go to his company to settle scores with him now!”

“It’s useless to settle the score.” Shi Man frowned slightly and persuaded him with a headache. After hanging up, she was still rubbing her eyebrows in frustration.

Yuan Yi stole a glance at her expression. Coincidentally, the waiter came in to serve the dishes. He hurriedly called her to eat and handed her the disinfected chopsticks. “Fill your stomach first before thinking of how to deal with him. Don’t worry, the Yuan family will always be on your side.”

Only then did Shi Man put down her hand and look at him steadily.

In the book, Yuan Yi only appeared when the Shi family was about to be destroyed. His main purpose was to protect Shi Mu. However, not only did he enter Yi Zheng’s sight in advance, but he also became a thorn in Yi Zheng’s side before the Shi family did. Yet, this person was still saying that he would always support her.

It would be a lie to say that she was not moved, but Shi Man knew that this was not love.

She sighed slightly and looked up seriously to return his sincere gaze. “Don’t participate in this matter first. You know my strength. I will do everything to protect you and the Yuan family.”

“Alright.” Yuan Yi nodded carelessly. He picked up a piece of vegetable and put it in his mouth. He narrowed his eyes in enjoyment and said, “The culinary skills of this restaurant are really not bad. Try it quickly. Now that our two families are in the same boat, are you afraid that we won’t be able to deal with Yi Zheng?”

Shi Man was infected by him and the huge rock in her heart relaxed a little. She picked up her chopsticks and started eating.

She was not afraid of Yi Zheng’s revenge. She just found it unbelievable.

The male protagonist in the original book was domineering and obsessed with faithfulness in relationships. She had already been intimate with another man in public, but she did not expect Yi Zheng to tell everyone that he wanted to marry her.

Was he really crazy?

Shouldn’t he like the gentle and understanding female lead? She didn’t seem to have anything similar to Su Tang!

To be honest, Shi Man, who had gone to his office with the intention of annoying Yi Zheng, was completely shocked by Yi Zheng’s reckless methods. After the shock, she actually felt a little strange.
