Chapter 181 (I’m Going to Marry Zhao Yuan) After a Lot of Scheming, Zhao Yuan Will Marry Chen Wanxin
Zhao Yuan did not know who Mr. Chen was, but he thought it might be Lin Wenxi. However, based on the photo, he could tell that Mr. Chen was already about forty years old. Even if Lin Wenxi had had plastic surgery, he would not look like this. Shu Xiaoman, however, knew that this Mr. Chen was only the acting deputy general manager of BC Company whose surname happened to be Chen. The real general manager, Mr. Chen, had just returned to China, and it would be some time before he took the position.
She knew this because Chen Wanxin had come to her a few days ago.
“It’s time for you to give up. Am I right?” Chen Wanxin said with a smile, grabbing her hand affectionately.
“Yes. You should be satisfied!”
“What makes you think so? As my roommate from university, I’m one of the few people in the world who care about you. In any case, I wish you would marry him. I wish Brother Yuan would stop getting involved with him. Otherwise, Brother Yuan will lose everything he has. We’re not students anymore. Brother Yuan’s company is still quite young and has many competitors, so it is still in danger. Even if you did not care about your future, you should stop them from contacting with each other for the sake of your classmates.” Chen Wanxin’s eyes flashed coldly, causing Shu Xiaoman to shudder.
Shu Xiaoman did not answer. Whether Zhao Yuan and Lin Wenxi contacted each other or not, they only had each other in their hearts.
“Among our college classmates, An’an has become the star of tomorrow. It’s said Nannan and Wang Zhengjuan live in Shanghai. They are lucky they finally got together. Wang Xiang is the only one that confused me. And you! You have quietly worked for Zhao Yuan for six years, and you have waited for Chen Yuanxi for six years. To be frank, I wish you would wait until he changes his mind,” Chen Wanxin said, as if she cared about Shu Xiaoman deeply.
Shu Xiaoman knew that not everything Chen Wanxin had said was true. However, in such a mixed and competitive city, she had almost never heard a word of sincerity. What Chen Wanxin had said made her feel like she had seen a streak of green in the corner of the big city in the cold winter.
She remembered her classmates.
Ever since graduating from university, Chen Wanxin had become an important leader in her family business. After several years, she was promoted to become the general manager running the listed company with several long-term partners. She led a comfortable life now. In the past four years, her company was cooperating more and more closely with YH, the company Shu Xiaoman worked for. Zhou Nannan and Wang Zhengjuan always showed their love in the WeChat moments, and it was unnecessary to worry about their relationship. Shu Xiaoman had seen Wang Xiang several times in the cities where Zhang An’an held concerts. She also saw Wang Xiang and Zheng Kai more than one time at food stalls, very drunk. Wang Xiang had become a salesman in a company located near BC Company and traveled around the country looking for customers. Among the college friends, only he had no house, no car and almost no money in the bank. He used up almost all of his money every month, and his physical condition was not that good.
“Wait? Now I don’t even know who I’m waiting for.” Shu Xiaoman took a sip of lemonade and said, “Wanxin, let’s lay it out clearly. What do you want me to do?”
“I’m going to get married.” Chen Wanxin remarked while fiddling with the poinsettia beside the table, causing the petals to shiver gracefully above the blood-red leaves.
“You’re getting married?” Shu Xiaoman was surprised.
“It seems your boss hasn’t mentioned it to you. Half a year ago, your company’s capital chain was broken when your company was going to get listed on the new over-the-counter market. All the major shareholders wanted to withdraw their shares. Do you know who injected large amounts of capital into the company?” Chen Wanxin asked with a smile.
Shu Xiaoman suddenly felt that Chen Wanxin’s smile was as annoying as it was six years ago.
“I know it was your company that almost broke our company’s capital chain. It was you who asked several people to order our products and give a deposit, then you asked them to cancel all the orders. A Yuan is a smart person, but I don’t know why he fell on this matter.” Shu Xiaoman’s face darkened.
She did not understand what it had to do with Chen Wanxin’s marriage.
“He has no choice but to marry me! First of all, before he died, his father asked him to marry me. He is a dutiful son, so he will follow his father’s will and marry me. Second, only I can help him and his company. Third, he can only find the person who killed his father after marrying me! Aren’t these reasons enough? He has been apart from Chen Yuanxi for six years, and he doesn’t know what he looks like now! Chen Yuanxi is totally different from what he used to be,” Chen Wanxin said.
But Chen Wanxin was only half right.
Zhao Yuan had paid a lot of under-the-table money for the long-term cooperation with the Chens, but he had made a record every time. Now he had bribed the deputy general manager of the Chens who was in charge of the business in south China, and had the goods on many members of the Chens. When the Chens get into trouble one day, he was confident that he could put all the Chens’ members into jail while keeping himself safe. However, what Zhao Yuan wanted was far more than this. He wanted to get closer to the Chens and get involved in more important businesses, then he would be able to obtain the evidence of their insider trading. When the time was right, he would expose all the skeletons in the Chens’ closet. Even if he could not uproot the whole family, he would shake their foundation.
With the foundation shaken, the position of the newly promoted secretary of the Chens would be precarious. Of course, this was a long way off, but if he could find a way, he might reach his goal soon.
Fortunately, Chen Wanxin would never know what Uncle Hong Xuan had told him before leaving the boy’s dormitory.
The opportunity to infiltrate the Chens was coming soon.
Zhao Yuan had figured out the big bosses’ real intentions soon after they came to him. He happened to need an opportunity to get closer to the Chens, so he took the opportunity to make himself a natural son-in-law of Chen Tianjiao.
