Chapter 23 - Chapter 17 spent time

Zhu Nongzhang suddenly turned his head, "The one Wen Yangzhi gave to Yun Yuwan?"

It wasn't Aunt Qin's necklace!

But what Zhu Qing'an thought was not this.

She had been at the scene when the necklace was auctioned off.

Wen Yangzhi's bidding agent had been competing with her fiercely, raising the price by tenfold.

Wen Yangzhi's assistant called her, asking her not to bid anymore, and offered to compensate her privately, saying that Director Wen wanted to give the necklace to someone very important.

Having grown up together, even if he, Wen Yangzhi, was richer, what gave him the right to ask her to back down?

She liked it too.

At that moment, Zhu Qing'an directly said, "Unless he is giving it to his girlfriend, I won't stop."

But Wen Yangzhi's assistant seemed a bit embarrassed, "Yes, it's for someone who will stand shoulder to shoulder with Director Wen in the future, and the person has said they liked this necklace."

Surprised, Zhu Qing'an stopped the bidding on the spot.

That was Wen Yangzhi, the ever virtuous Wen Yangzhi who wanted to give the necklace to someone he cherished, how could she spoil his intentions?

Who else could stand shoulder to shoulder with him besides his wife?

Zhu Nongzhang said that Aunt Qin had lent it to Yun Yuwan to wear.

How could that be possible?

That necklace couldn't possibly be in Zhao Qin's hands.

That left only one possibility, Wen Yangzhi had given it to Yun Yuwan.

Meaning that, the person who would stand shoulder to shoulder with him in the future was his sister!

Zhu Qing'an had an epiphany.

No wonder he had been single all along. He was holding back a huge secret.

Right, otherwise why would the Wen Family insist on adopting a girl who had no relatives?

Especially since the child had a significant inheritance and was already sixteen or seventeen, capable of living independently, yet they still adopted her.

She was nearly an adult.

Wasn't it clear that they adopted her because Wen Yangzhi liked her?

Zhu Qing'an was still somewhat in disbelief, "Are you sure the necklace you saw is the Night-blooming Cestrum with emeralds?"

"I'm sure, and I searched for the necklace online." Zhu Nongzhang persisted, "Is the necklace really a gift from Brother Yangzhi to her?"

However, Zhu Qing'an wasn't interested in her speculations, "The picture you searched for, show it to me."

"This is it." Zhu Nongzhang immediately searched for the image of the necklace online and shoved her phone in front of her.

Seeing the photo on the image,

Zhu Qing'an's suspicions finally settled.

It was true!

Wen Yangzhi really had given that necklace to his sister.

No wonder he didn't change his surname or register her in the household.

If she were registered and changed her surname, they wouldn't be able to get married.

She had thought that Wen Yangzhi really despised this sister, but it turned out he was incredibly fond of her.

When asked, he had said she was just a little girl from a family acquaintance, staying with them temporarily.

Damn, that's sick, way too sick.

It was something Wen Yangzhi would do.

After all, he had the audacity to let his investment bank take on the case of merging a top domestic short video platform with one of the top five e-commerce platforms, and he had even managed to make it happen.

Following the successful merger, it caused a huge sensation in the country, trending on social media for an entire day, with continuous news related to it, and even now, industry insiders were still analyzing this hundred-billion-dollar merger case.

But who would have thought that his private life was as bizarre as his business maneuvers!

She immediately asked, "Where is Yun Yuwan now?"

Zhu Nongzhang casually pointed, "Over there."

Zhu Qing'an looked over.

Yun Yuwan was chatting with a young girl.

Zhu Qing'an couldn't help revealing a sympathetic look in her eyes.

Wen Yangzhi, what a freak, such a freak!!

She thought he had a regular crush, someone he met later, and even told her childhood friends after the auction, saying she wanted to see who would end up wearing Wen Yangzhi's necklace.

Everyone was eager, at least four or five people, and now they were telling her that Wen Yangzhi's crush was the sister they had always thought of, the childhood friends must be in shock!

Heavens, this freak Wen Yangzhi, to prey on such a young girl!

Everyone knows Wen Yangzhi doesn't mess around with relationships, turns out this guy likes to do it on the down-low.

No wonder he's been single for so many years, I mean, what adult man could stand it!

Back in the day when Wen Yangzhi was most favored by the girls, he could resist not finding a girlfriend, turns out he was already snatched up.

Among his wealthy peers of the same age, Wen Yangzhi's lineage and status were extremely high, his looks magnificent. Almost all the heiresses in the city within the same age group knew of Wen Yangzhi's famed name, and it's fair to say nearly all of them thought about marrying him, he was a suitor who would never be rejected by any girl in an arranged marriage.

When Wen Yangzhi was in his early twenties, Zhu Qing'an and their group of friends often teased him, saying they wanted to ride in Young Master Zhi's Ferrari.

That year, Wen Yangzhi had just started taking over the family business, and everyone guessed he was under a lot of pressure, because he was always driving out late at night to clear his head, or more appropriately, to race.

One of the cars was an especially eye-catching, limited edition white convertible LaFerrari, with only three allotted to the entire country, which even in car-rich Shanghai, stood out.

One midnight when he was returning from the Jiading International Circuit, a girl who was pursuing him saw him and immediately told her driver to chase after the car, but they couldn't catch up. They only managed to get a photo, which somehow got leaked.

It circulated wildly among groups of girls.

Rolling down the car window, the neon lights and street lamps cast half of his face in a luminous glow, the man's profile rising and falling like mountains, proud yet unfeeling, entirely different from his usual steady and restrained demeanor.

Even though the vehicle was moving and his facial features were somewhat blurred, it did not hinder his allure.

A handsome and stern-looking young man, expressionless as he sped through the bustling streets, with the passenger seat empty.

It made onlookers uncontrollably wonder what it would be like to sit beside him.

As the story spread among the girls, the boys also came to understand Wen Yangzhi's status among the girls.

Oh, so they all like this type.

Thus, friends often teased Wen Yangzhi, with even Jiang Jianqing leaning on him and saying he wanted to ride in Zhi Shao's Ferrari.

Until Wen Yangzhi rose to prominence, gradually nobody dared to be so frivolous anymore.

After all, his father was the chairman of Wen Bank, those who could match his status were, in fact, very few.

Who would have thought he'd fall for a little girl.

Turns out he actually likes this tune!

Wen Yangzihi looks so fierce, fancying someone who seems so soft-tempered; this little girl is probably going to be bullied to death.

But he must really like Yun Yuwan, otherwise, why would he bring her home to take care of her.

She almost wished she could go tease Wen Yangzhi right now.

Zhu Qing'an picked up a drink and walked over to Yun Yuwan, "I'm Nongzhang's sister; sorry about earlier."

When Yun Yuwan looked up, she saw a sister with a gentle temperament, obviously with a slight baby bump.

She resembled Zhu Nongzhang a bit.

"It's all right."

Zhu Qing'an extended her hand, "We've never officially met, my name is Zhu Qing'an, and I'm also a friend of your brother."

Yun Yuwan smiled warmly and gently, "Nice to meet you, I'm Yun Yuwan."

"How come we never saw you in the past few years?" Zhu Qing'an inquired.

Yun Yuwan gently held her warm, soft hand, "Initially, I was studying in London, then I stayed in Belgium for two years, so I wasn't in the country much."

Zhu Qing'an nearly exclaimed, "You were in Belgium last year?!"

"Yes," Yun Yuwan didn't understand her dramatic reaction.

Zhu Qing'an suddenly realized why Wen Yangzhi insisted on going to Belgium for Christmas last year, even if it meant catching a midnight flight.

Now, everything fell into place.

"No wonder Wen Yangzhi went to Belgium last Christmas, it was to meet with you."

Yun Yuwan was shocked, "He went to Belgium last year?"
