Chapter 191: Long Time No See

Xu Yue sized up the man and sat up slightly. Her eyes were cold, but her tone was very gentle. “Zixuan, long time no see.”

Zhao Zixuan had not seen the woman in front of him for a long time. Now, he recalled the past and his attitude toward Xu Yue became much better.

“Well, why did you ask me to come here this time?”

Xu Yue took a sip of the coffee on the table and smiled. “Zixuan, no matter what, we still have feelings for each other. Although there were some unpleasant things that happened before, I don’t blame you.”

“After such a long time, I’ve also thought things through. I know you don’t really like Xu Wanwan. It’s because of the novelty, right?”

Xu Yue was very clear about the incident where Zhao Zixuan had met a wall with Xu Wanwan.

She also knew that the entire Zhao family was involved in the storm. Because of Li Corporation’s suppression, the Zhao Group’s life was not easy either.

Back then, Li Jingran did not like the Xu family, so he used this tactic as well.

But now that Xu Wanwan and Li Jingran were separated, how could she still be arrogant in the future?

Without Li Jingran’s help, Xu Wanwan would definitely return to her original state. If she took advantage of this moment to establish a relationship with the Zhao family early on, and then reconcile with Zhao Zixuan, then she would definitely be able to step on Xu Wanwan’s head.

Although she no longer liked Zhao Zixuan, what did it matter? As long as the Zhao family could bring her benefits, even if she went against her own wishes, what could she do?

As long as she brought out enough benefits, Zhao Zixuan would not give up on her.

With the Xu family and the Zhao family allied together, coupled with the Zhou family’s support, would they still be afraid of the Li family’s suppression?

Zhao Zixuan felt even more at ease when he saw how she understood him. All he could think about was Xu Wanwan’s bad side.

He said angrily, “Of course. Xu Wanwan is just from the countryside. No matter how much she changes, she can’t change her inherent inferiority.”

“How can she be as gentle and sensible as you? Now that I think about it, you’re still the best.”

Xu Yue sneered in her heart and said with a smile, “Zixuan, I’m very happy that you can remember my good side.”

“Actually, I didn’t call you here today just to reminisce about old times.”

Zhao Zixuan’s tone also softened. “I understand your intentions. If you want to reconcile with me, I’ll agree to it.”

Xu Yue lowered her head shyly. She didn’t deny it, which meant that she had tacitly agreed.

“I saw on the news that the shares of the Zhao Group have been falling continuously. I’ve always been worried. Uncle and Aunt were so good to me before. Now that they’re in trouble, I should do something about it.”

“Oh right, the Xu family happened to be working with the Zhou Group recently, so I want to recommend the Zhao group to the Zhou Group. As long as they agree to work together, they can help you through the difficulties.”

Zhao Zixuan had been worried about the company recently. When he heard Xu Yue’s words, his eyes instantly lit up.

“Yue’er, is what you said true?”

Xu Yue nodded lightly. “Of course it’s true. Moreover, I know chairman Zhou’s daughter. Our relationship is quite good. When the time comes, let her know. She will definitely agree.”

Zhao Zixuan stood up in excitement and walked directly to Xu Yue. He pulled her into his arms. “I knew that you still loved me the most.”

Xu Yue pretended to lean on his shoulder and looked ahead coldly. “You have to remember that I did all this because I love you.”

“Let’s start over. Can you love me from now on?”

Zhao Zixuan nodded solemnly. “Don’t worry. As long as you can help the Zhao Corporation get through this difficult time, you’ll be a member of the Zhao family from now on!”

Xu Yue suppressed the excitement in her heart and continued to act affectionately.

Half an hour later, she managed to get Zhao Zixuan to leave. Her expression returned to indifference as she made a phone call.

After a while, Zhou Lin appeared in the cafe.

“I heard that Xu Wanwan and Li Jingran are going to get married. Give me the details,” Zhou Lin went straight to the point.

Ever since she heard the news, she had not had a good night’s sleep. She did not expect the Li family to agree to this ridiculous marriage.

Li Jingran actually wanted to marry a woman with no background and status as his wife. This was crazy!

The corners of Xu Yue’s lips curled up slightly. She pushed a room card over unhurriedly. “Li Jingran is going to S City for a business trip these next few days. He booked this hotel. This is the room card that I asked someone to get.”

Zhou Lin’s eyes lit up. After she reacted, she asked cautiously, “How do you know so much?”

Xu Yue chuckled.

She simply admitted it. “To tell you the truth, I planted a bug on Xu Wanwan. Naturally, I can know anything about the Li family.”

Only then did Zhou Lin take the room card, her fingers slightly clenched. She was already imagining the feeling of being alone in a room with Li Jingran.

When he was drunk, she would sneak into his room again. She did not believe that this man could still keep his virginity.

Xu Yue saw through her thoughts at a glance. “I helped you, so you should also help me with something.”

“Say it.” Zhou Lin was in a good mood. “As long as it’s something I can do, it’s fine.”

Xu Yue said directly, “I want you to work with the Zhao Group.”

“Zhao Group? The company that Li Jingran is trying to suppress?”

“That’s right.”

Zhou Lin’s red lips curved slightly. She suddenly became interested. “No problem!”

Since the Li Corporation wanted to suppress the Zhao Group, she would support the Zhao Group.

She wanted to see if she could attract the man’s attention by going against Li Jingran.

After the matter was settled, Zhou Lin went straight to S City. She couldn’t wait to see Li Jingran.

—

Xu Wanwan returned to the Li family home.

She had thought a lot along the way.

If she were to see Li Jingran now, she decided she would say goodbye to him calmly and then leave.

Just as she walked into the living room, she heard Aunt Zhang’s surprised voice behind her—

“Miss Xu, didn’t you go to S City with Director Li?”

Xu Wanwan was stunned. “Jingran has already left?”

“Yes, Director Li was in a hurry to come back and left after a while. Didn’t you know?” Aunt Zhang said while mopping the floor. “I thought you would go with Director Li.”

Xu Wanwan didn’t even have the strength to force a smile.

He went on a business trip so soon. Did he really not want to see her?

She turned around and went upstairs. She smiled bitterly.

In his heart, she was just a person who only knew how to play tricks. How could he miss her?

Xu Wanwan went back to her room with a heavy heart. She quickly tidied up the room and left with big and small bags.

When she reached the door, she suddenly turned around and looked at the empty room.

She seemed to have taken everything away, but it also seemed that she could not take anything away.

The past flashed past her heart one after another, and it was so heavy.

She sighed lightly and resolutely turned around to leave.

She decided to leave the things with Xu Yuchu first, and then go to the school to apply for a place to stay the next day.
