"Hehe, Grandpa, have you forgotten? I remember telling you that I would only marry one girl as my wife, and she and I have already made a private vow for life. If you give me Bi Fan, it seems she can only be a concubine. I don't mind that, after all, it's normal for a man to have a few concubines. But... I'm just afraid that Uncle Zheng won't be able to hold his head up."
The faces of the Zheng family turned pale in unison.
This remark, made by Bai Haonan with a light laugh, was truly infuriating.
Old Master Bai slammed the table in anger, "Haonan! I do not acknowledge your so-called private vow! That woman, Wen Ling, does not love you at all; she loves your money!"
Bai Haonan's expression turned cold, and he stood up abruptly, saying coldly, "I don't care what she loves! All I know is that I must love her! My time has come; I'm leaving first!"
"You, you, you ungrateful brat!"
Zheng Bi Fan hurriedly chased after him, swaying her hips and clacking her high heels, "Haonan Ge! Haonan Ge..."
Finally, panting, she caught hold of Bai Haonan's sleeve, leaning against him and gasping, "Haonan Ge... don't make such a quick decision. You don't know me well enough... Once you understand my advantages, you won't be interested in that lowly woman, Wen Ling... I have confidence in that, hehe..."
Zheng Bi Fan shamelessly took Bai Haonan's hand and placed it on her prominent chest, rubbing it while letting out a few seductive moans.
Bai Haonan squinted, a sly smile curling his lips as he pinched Zheng Bi Fan's provocative face, saying word by word, "Let me see if you're sexy enough..."
"Sure! I can come to your place and let you see enough..." Look, even a man as formidable as Bai Haonan is tempted, right? Hahaha...
Zheng Bi Fan threw a captivating glance at Bai Haonan, leaning against him like glue.
"Hmph, so troublesome. I want to see right now."
The man chuckled mischievously, his breath fragrant, with an alluring smile...
Zheng Bi Fan was almost fainting...
But suddenly, she saw the man's expression stiffen, a chilling aura emanating from him.
With a flick of his arm...
"Ah..." Zheng Bi Fan cried out, "Splash!" With a miserable sound, she was thrown into the pond in the teahouse, looking more pitiful than a drenched chicken.
Zheng Bi Fan's mood plummeted, as if a big green fly had landed on a perfectly good cream cake, utterly disgusting.
"Such a shallow woman, yet she dares to think that I, Bai Haonan, would be interested in her? Hmph, what a ridiculous single-celled organism!"
Bai Haonan brushed off his clothes, completely ignoring Zheng Bi Fan's frantic cries in the water, and strode away with his head held high.
Luo Yuan peeked out, looking at the drenched Zheng Bi Fan surrounded by curious onlookers, unable to help but chuckle, his cunning eyes twinkling. "Serves you right for trying to seduce our boss! Right, let's take a few commemorative photos to post on the campus website later, haha..."
The mischievous Luo Yuan took out his high-resolution phone and snapped a few pictures of Zheng Bi Fan splashing in the water before running off to find his boss, Bai Haonan.
"This afternoon, how many meetings do we have? Bring me a summary of the meetings to look over..." Bai Haonan was still in the car, diligently working, flipping through documents.
Meanwhile, Luo Yuan was happily playing with his phone in the front seat, sending out a few photos.
Su Liao was sprawled on the table, sleeping soundly, bubbles drifting from her nose...
Buzz...
A text message notification came in with a multimedia message!
Wen Ling, who had been feeling gloomy all day because of Old Master Bai, boredly took her best friend's phone and opened it.
The sender was "Yuan Yuan."
Wen Ling raised an eyebrow—could it be Luo Yuan?
Damn it, she and Bai Haonan were already in a complicated situation, and now Su Liao was getting involved with Bai Haonan's subordinate? What a mess!
Casually looking at the multimedia message...
Wen Ling straightened her back, her eyes widening as she stared at the phone!
Zheng Bi Fan!
That girl, even if she turned into a pile of dung, she would still recognize the smell that came from Zheng Dog.
She looked at the text content:
"Absolutely shocking news: The old man arranged for the boss to marry Zheng Bi Fan! This woman is more charming than your Wen Ling, and I bet her measurements are more perfect than Liang Bai's standards. Anyway, she wore a shoulder-baring dress today, and wow, her chest is almost popping out. Our boss is so infatuated that he threw Zheng Bi Fan into the pond. Quite a mess, right? Remember to keep using that breast enhancement cream and eat papaya tonight. Tonight's video is your turn to strip! :)"
What kind of nonsense is this? The message was all over the place.
And what was with the breast enhancement cream, eating papaya, and who would strip tonight...
Bai Haonan's bad subordinate was no good either.
Luo Yuan, that big silver thief, dared to tempt Su Liao into a lewd chat... Damn it, next time she saw him, she would definitely twist his ears around a dozen times.
Wen Ling, of course, had no idea that it was her friend Su Liao who had seduced Luo Yuan into the lewd chat...
After calming down, Wen Ling suddenly furrowed her brows, feeling lost.
In Old Master Bai's mind, the best and most suitable granddaughter-in-law was Zheng Bi Fan, right?
That made sense; after all, Zheng Bi Fan came from a wealthy family, while she had been poor since birth.
Pouting, Wen Ling felt like crying.
People say men are visual creatures, that they lack long-term loyalty in love, and that they are born to spread their seeds... It seemed that no matter how picky or principled Bai Haonan was, he wouldn't always reject the advances of a seductive woman like Zheng Dog...
"Sigh..."
She sighed.
Feeling dejected, she was no longer the lively and carefree Wen Ling, and she furrowed her brows as she walked out of the classroom.
"Woo woo woo..." A handsome guy was crying on a bench under a tree, waving a small handkerchief, looking very cartoonish.
Wen Ling pouted, her anger rising, "Damn Lan Qi! What are you whining about here?"
She was already in a bad mood...
"I'm crying for my little Wen classmate who has passed away young... woo woo..."
A black line appeared on her forehead...
"Are you looking for death? How dare you curse me?"
Lan Qi jumped off the bench with a grin, giving Wen Ling a hard push on the head, "Look at you! You look like a lonely ghost; I'm afraid you'll walk into a crematorium to fill in for someone."
Wen Ling was taken aback.
Was she really in such a bad state?
Just because of Old Master Bai's meeting, she had to suffer all day long...
Heaven, she wouldn't fall in love with that ruthless and cunning black market boss Bai Haonan, would she?
No love, no love, absolutely cannot love!
Her mind quickly came up with countless reasons not to love Bai Haonan:
1. The man is too handsome, with a tendency to be a seducer, making it easy for him to ignore her.
2. A black market boss is not someone to love; that would be putting her neck on the line in the underworld.
3. Bai Haonan's abilities in that area are too strong; being with such a beastly man for too long could lead to her downfall.
4...
Her cheeks hurt, bringing Wen Ling back to her senses... "Hiss, damn Lan Qi! Why are you pinching my face? Don't you know that if you touch a woman's face, you have to take responsibility?"
"I see you're still alive... You were already dumb, and now you're even dumber. Are you okay? Did you get gang-raped by a group of beggars on the street? Why do you look so dead?"
Smack!
Wen Ling couldn't take it anymore and slapped Lan Qi's face, turning his fair forehead red.
"Hey! You damn woman! You don't hit faces! I rely on this face to eat! I'm going to participate in a TV entertainment program soon, invited by a senior from the TV station who noticed my outstanding looks and excellent dancing skills. So, I'm about to become famous, famous all over the world! When that happens, it won't be easy for you to ask for my autograph. Hmph."
A TV station?
So impressive?
"Are you out of your mind? Have you gone crazy wanting to be famous?"
Pretending to be serious, she reached out to touch Lan Qi's forehead, but he angrily swatted her hand away, saying, "I'm not joking! By the way, do you want to join me for the show?"
"Me? What kind of program?"
"Something like a speed dating entertainment show..."
A bunch of hashtags appeared in her mind...
Wen Ling never expected that Lan Qi would secretly sign her up for this speed dating show.
Wen Ling poked Lan Qi's chest with her finger, fiercely saying, "I don't care if you become a shooting star or a falling star; today you must clean the doghouse for Xiao Mi Li and wash all the clothes at home!"
Lan Qi gritted his teeth and cursed, "You two female versions of Zhou Guapi!"
A tall figure approached.
"Don't tell me you two are here on a date."
A clear and elegant voice came, tinged with a hint of jealousy.
His beautiful shadow cast over them, and Lan Qi turned his head in surprise, muttering, "Oh no, I've walked into the line of fire... Brother, you saw it, she touched me; I didn't touch her."
Wen Ling turned slowly to see Bai Haonan's teasing and deep gaze.
"Uh... what are you doing here?"
It wasn't time for him to get off work, nor was it her school dismissal time.
Why did he appear like a ghost, showing up out of nowhere?
"I came when I wanted to. You, take your hand away; don't be so touchy."
Bai Haonan stretched out his long arm, pulling Wen Ling away from Lan Qi and into his embrace, speaking with a hint of worry, "You're so restless; it makes me worry. I need to keep an eye on you."
Lan Qi, who had witnessed the formidable presence of the handsome black market boss, felt his legs go weak and timidly said, "Brother, can I leave now?"
Bai Haonan looked Lan Qi up and down, coldly saying, "If I see you two in any physical contact again, I won't be polite."
"Ah, got it... I'm so unlucky..." Lan Qi stuck out his tongue, resentfully glancing at Wen Ling before running off.
Unlucky indeed! A girl as slow as Wen Ling was definitely not his type; he didn't want to take advantage of her, yet he kept getting suspected by the jealous uncle because of her. Wasn't that unfair?
Wen Ling was left sweating profusely.
