Chapter 648 - : You Really Have The Ability To Attract Men (1/2)

Shi Mengwan looked at the baby in Su Qingsang’s arms. There was a flash of envy and affection in her eyes.

Today was Su Qingsang’s baby shower. Previously, when Su Qingsang was giving birth, Shi Mengwan had come once. This was her second time coming to Rong City.

“So cute. This is the younger sister, right?”

“Yes. This is Nian Nian. She’s the younger sister.”

“Have you decided on her name yet?”

“Yes. Her name is Huo Yanzhen.” Her face full of content, Su Qingsang hugged her daughter. “The older one is called Huo Yanjing.”

“Nice name.”

Shi Mengwan nodded and her gaze fell on the baby’s rosy-cheeked face. “The most important thing is that she’s really cute, so cute that I want to steal her home.”

“Do you like them?” Su Qingsang winked at her. “If you like them, hurry up and find a man, then go give births to babies too.”

“Mm-hm. I think she’s right.”

Wan Xianyang had arrived at some point and was standing next to Shi Mengwan. He looked at her with a warm gaze.

“Ma’am. Wanwan.”

Shi Mengwan nodded at Wan Xianyang as a form of greeting and quickly stood up.

“Qingsang, I’m going to the bathroom.”

“Go ahead.”

She was obviously avoiding Wan Xianyang, and that made Wan Xianyang’s expression sour. After Shi Mengwan left, he looked at Su Qingsang.

“Ma’am, I’m not that bad, right?”

Su Qingsang couldn’t respond to his words. To each his own. Wan Xianyang was good, but Shi Mengwan didn’t like him, so there was nothing she could do.

“Xianyang, listen to my advice. You’d better find another target.”

Wan Xianyang was just saying that he didn’t want to give up. In fact, he had given up a long time ago. When he heard Su Qingsang say this now, he wasn’t particularly irritated.

“Okay, I want to see who won over that goddess in the end.”

Shi Mengwan actually knew that Wan Xianyang wouldn’t do anything, but she felt a little uncomfortable facing someone who had “passionately” pursued her before.

In fact, she believed that Li Junsheng didn’t have deep feelings for her. It was just the desire to conquer, just like that person’s.

Shi Mengwan, who was a little absent-minded, walked a little faster. She didn’t notice that there was someone coming towards her from the other corner. Her entire body accidentally fell into the other person’s arms.

“I’m sorry.” Shi Mengwan quickly apologized and wanted to leave the other person’s arms. She was wearing high heels today, and her right foot accidentally tripped her left foot. Not only did she lose her balance, but she also fell into the other person’s arms.

Shi Mengwan had never encountered such an embarrassing situation before. She didn’t dare to look up.

However, she heard a burst of low laughter coming from above her head. Then, her body was caught by someone and she stood firm. Using this movement, she looked up and realized that the person in front of her looked very familiar. She felt like she had seen him somewhere before.

“I’m sorry. ” Feeling a little embarrassed, Shi Mengwan bit her lip.

“It’s okay.” Li Junsheng shook his head. Today was the baby shower for Su Qingsang and Huo Jinyao’s child. He had just flown over from Lin City today. He didn’t expect such a romantic encounter as soon as he arrived.

“I’m really sorry.” Shi Mengwan knew that the people who came today were distinguished. They were all business friends of the Huo family. Therefore, she was indeed embarrassed.

“It’s really okay.” Li Junsheng smiled and took a step back. He looked at Shi Mengwan with some awe in his eyes.

Speaking of which, he had never met Shi Mengwan before. When he was in Lin City, Huo Jinyao had a gathering with them, but it was unlikely that he would invite Shi Mengwan.

When Shi Mengwan came to Rong City and was brought to have fun with Huo Jinyao’s group of childhood friends, Li Junsheng was in Lin City.

Su Qingsang and Huo Jinyao had been married for more than a year now, but Li Junsheng had never seen Shi Mengwan before.

Shi Mengwan came over today. She wasn’t wearing a formal gown, but she was dressed very formally.

She was wearing a classic Hepburn-style black dress with a red blazer on the outside. The combination of red and black made her look lofty and passionate.

The coordination was very suitable. Plus, Shi Mengwan wore light makeup today. Her facial features were already very glamorous, so she appeared even more dazzling.

If one looked carefully, one could see the faint sorrow in Shi Mengwan’s eyes. She gave people the feeling that she was somewhat contradictory, but also surprisingly harmonious.

Shi Mengwan wanted to laugh. She rarely made a fool out of herself like she did today. It was really her first time.

“Are you here for the baby shower too?”

She looked at Li Junsheng and felt that this person looked a little familiar. After she asked this question, her eyes suddenly widened, as if she remembered something.

“Yes.” Li Junsheng looked at Shi Mengwan. He had never seen her before. “You too?”

“Yes.” Shi Mengwan nodded. The moment Li Junsheng nodded, she completely remembered who he was. “You, you’re Mayor Li?”

“You know me?” After Li Junsheng heard Shi Mengwan’s words, he tilted his head. “You’re from Lin City?”

“Yes.” Shi Mengwan was really a little excited, although she knew that the people the Huo family knew weren’t ordinary, and she had just seen some people who often appeared on television appear here.

However, Li Junsheng was different. He was the mayor of Lin City.

She was just an ordinary citizen, so this was the first time she had seen the mayor. This made her a little excited.

“Hello, Mayor Li.”

“This isn’t Lin City. You don’t have to be so polite with me.” Li Junsheng looked at Shi Mengwan. “Are you a friend of Jinyao’s? Or a relative?”

Since he called Huo Jinyao by his name, it meant that Li Junsheng and Huo Jinyao had a good relationship. Shi Mengwan felt a little more relaxed now.

“I’m Qingsang’s friend.”

Li Junsheng knew that Su Qingsang was from Lin City. He didn’t ask any more questions.

“I see. Please help yourself. I’ll go in and say hello to the Old Master first.”

“Okay.”

Shi Mengwan waited for Li Junsheng to disappear before she recovered from her shock.

She didn’t expect that she would have the chance to meet the Mayor of Lin City? This feeling was really mindblowing.

She walked towards the bathroom at the other end of the corridor. At the corner, there was a men’s bathroom outside and the women’s bathroom was across from it.

Before she could enter, her hand was grabbed by someone. Before she could react, she was pulled into the men’s bathroom.

Shi Mengwan was shocked. Her first reaction was that she had met a pervert. Her second reaction was that this was a five-star hotel. All the people who came today were famous people. It couldn’t —

Her guess was quickly confirmed. A familiar smell wafted into the tip of her nose.

She already became very familiar with this smell over the past year. She suddenly raised her head, and what she saw was Zhan Haoze’s sinister face.

She didn’t have time to care about his ugly expression. Instead, she realized the situation in front of her first.

“Are you crazy? Isn’t this the men’s bathroom?”

She was so panicked that she wanted to leave this place as soon as possible, but Zhan Haoze covered her lips in the next second.

It was as if she was bitten by a piranha. She simply felt pain on her lips. She couldn’t escape. She couldn’t leave. Her entire body was trapped by him.

This was a five-star hotel. There were people coming and going outside. This was also the men’s bathroom. For a moment, Zhan Haoze’s attitude made Shi Mengwan feel as if she was a showgirl.

She struggled to get up, raised her hand, and was about to swing it at Zhan Haoze’s face.

Zhan Haoze’s reaction was faster than she thought. He quickly grabbed her hand, and with his strong hands, he restrained both of her hands behind her back.

Because of her resistance, the force of his lips became even stronger. Shi Mengwan’s lips were bitten by him until they hurt.

She wanted to retreat, but Zhan Haoze’s strength wasn’t something she could compare to.

“Wu wu.” Her eyes filled with resistance, dissatisfaction, and anger, she glared at him.

Zhan Haoze looked into her eyes for a long while before finally letting go of her. He stepped back a little, but he still trapped her in his arms.

Shi Mengwan’s breathing was a little irregular, and her lips hurt. She suspected that he had bitten her lip.

“Zhan Haoze, let go of me.”

She wanted to push him away and leave this place. If she were to bump into someone in the men’s restroom, even if she didn’t do anything, even if there was no one here that knew her, it would still be enough to make her feel embarrassed.

“Wan Xianyang, Huo Jinyao’s childhood friend, the second young master of the Wan family. He now runs two antique shops, and Gu Langxuan’s business is booming. Every year, it brings in hundreds of millions of yuan in profit to Wan Xianyang.”

Not understanding what Zhan Haoze meant by this, Shi Mengwan’s body froze.

“Li Junsheng, mayor of Lin City. His family had been prominent for generations. Li Junsheng became the Mayor of Lin City at a young age. In the past year, he had used a master’s investment to develop and transform the Lin City’s old city area. His popularity in Lin City is very high.

Shi Mengwan’s back was leaning against the door. She didn’t understand what he meant by these words.

“I didn’t expect you to be so good at seducing men. To think that you could attract the attention of two men like them.”

Shi Mengwan discerned that he was speaking in a mocking tone. Without thinking, she raised her hand and slapped his face.

However, before her hand touched his face, he had already grabbed it.

His body moved forward and pressed her between the door and his chest.

“Are you angry?”

“Zhan Haoze, not every man is like you.”

“Like me? What do you mean by that? Hmm?”

Zhan Haoze leaned over and leaned close to Shi Mengwan’s face. The breath he exhaled blew onto her cheeks.

She turned her face away, as if she was trying to escape. She bit her lip. The fingernails of the hand that he didn’t grab dug into her palm.

Like what?

She didn’t understand how things had become like this.

..

More than a year ago.

Shi Mengwan hung up on Su Qingsang. She felt a little lonely.

Su Qingsang had followed Huo Jinyao back to Rong City for the mid-autumn festival. She was married. Although she wouldn’t forget her friends, Su Qingsang didn’t spend that much time with her anymore.

She felt a little lonely, but Huo Jinyao seemed to be a good person. Although he didn’t have money, he still lived in Su Qingsang’s house, and his conditions were average, as long as he treated Su Qingsang well, it would be fine.

She looked through all the orders she had received in order. The studio had been doing well recently.

Ever since Su Qingsang got married, her orders had increased a lot. There was nothing she could do. Even if Su Qingsang was the illegitimate daughter of the Su family, her wedding was still quite eye-catching.

She designed her wedding dress herself. After the wedding, the studio’s business became much better.

“Sister Shi, the customer from last time came again.” Secretary Xiao Qiu knocked on the door and poked her head in.

“Which one?”

“It’s that Miss Chen.”

“I’ll go take a look.” Shi Mengwan immediately thought of someone when she heard the name Chen.

There were two people sitting in the reception room. One was Chen Feifei, whom she had met the last time, and the other was Zhan Haoze.

Upon seeing the two people appear at the same time, Shi Mengwan’s expression was ambivalent for a moment. It was only for a moment. She quickly readjusted her expression and turned to look at Chen Feifei.

“Hello, Miss Chen.”
