The boss of the empire was blown up by me
Chapter 355 The man's face darkened: An Xiao7, let's talk
Nan Xiangwan didn't wear smart business attire today, but a more casual and sophisticated style,
The nude pink knee-length dress, with a v-neck design, reduces her usual fierceness in the workplace and adds a bit of daughter's gentleness.
She has almost no accessories on her body, only a pair of pearl earrings, even so, it still gives people a sense of sight of a noble lady descending to earth.
After supporting Zhan Xiuyuan to sit down, she said coquettishly to Zhan Xiuyuan:
"Grandpa Zhan, you just said that you want me to accompany you to dinner, how can you be like this? Just lure me here?
Even if you want to match my marriage with Xijue wholeheartedly, you shouldn't force the bull's head to drink like this, isn't it counterproductive? "
paused,
"How should I say, the person involved is a matter between the three of us young people, why don't you let me talk to Miss An alone?
This is better than going head-to-head.There is one hour left, and it's time for Xijue to get off work.
If he comes back and bumps into your woman who came to bully him while he was away, he will definitely get anxious with you again.
Why don't we chat privately with women, after all women know women better, what do you think? "
Zhan Xiuyuan felt that what Nan Xiangwan said made sense.
He drank the tea that Mama Lin brought over, and said without raising his eyebrows:
"Since you have said so, I, who stepped into the coffin, will sell your face."
Nan Xiangwan looked sideways at An Xiaoqi when he finished speaking, and said with a smile, "An Xiaoqi, shall we talk?"
An Xiaoqi knew that Zhan Xiuyuan came straight to the Castle Manor as soon as he was discharged from the hospital.
The old man has advanced lung cancer, if she confronts him head-on at this time,
Maybe she'll have to go to the hospital again, and then there will be something wrong, she's afraid that the wedding with Zhan Xijue will not be able to hold the funeral.
She got up and said, "Then go to the study and talk."
Nan Xiangwan nodded slightly, and said, "You are the hostess here, you have the final say."
……
After entering the study, Nan Xiangwan got straight to the point.
She said: "Miss An, I won't talk to you straight up."
An Xiaoqi made a gesture of invitation, and Nan Xiangwan said methodically:
"I don't know if a little girl like you can understand the burden and pressure on the shoulders of a prospective heir to a family.
But what I want to tell you is that Zhan Xijue now has a much heavier burden on his shoulders than you think.
Mr. Zhan is determined not to agree with him marrying you, a... barren woman,
Third Master Zhan is also determined to wait for Miss Ji to change her mind.
In short, the burden of the Zhan family's continuous descendants is almost superimposed on Zhan Xijue alone...,
The doctor said that Mr. Zhan's current physical condition can last until the end of the year at the longest, that is to say,
In less than half a year of his lifespan, he will spare no effort to tear you apart,
This is definitely not a small pressure for you. "
Speaking of this, his eyes fell on An Xiaoqi's face coolly, looking at her indifferent and beautiful face,
"I don't know what kind of predicament you will face in the future, just now,
Zhan Xijue's executive power in Shiding Group has been taken back by Zhan Lao, and his warrant in Wolf Totem has also been confiscated...,
In short, Zhan Xijue has almost no real power in the Zhan Family now..."
Having said that, I smiled lightly,
"Of course, Zhan Zong's own personal business, Dongfang Biological Group, is still operating normally. I just don't know how long it can continue to operate normally under the strong pressure from Zhan Lao."
paused,
"Also, Mr. Zhan has issued an ultimatum to him. If he insists on going his own way and insists on talking about this certificate with you,
He expelled Mr. Zhan from the Zhan family tree, and he was not allowed to set foot in the Zhan family's old house forever.
Even if he dies, he is not allowed to enter the Zhan family's ancestral grave... Even if the inheritance rights of the Zhan family are passed on to the second master of the Zhan family, he will not give him the eldest grandson of the long house...,
Miss An, do you understand what I mean? "
What Nan Xiangwan said was not an exaggeration.
They all happened recently but Zhan Xijue never mentioned a single word in front of An Xiaoqi.
An Xiaoqi: "..."
It turned out that the man had already endured so much for her where she couldn't see it,
It's fine if he doesn't mention a word, since he can still arrange a wedding dress designer for her as if nothing happened,
It is even interesting to study with her where the church holds the wedding ceremony...
He blocked all the turbulent and harsh wind and rain for her, but she couldn't do anything for him.
Has she become a burden on his shoulders?
"Miss An, you are a sensible person, Mr. Zhan already knows about the existence of Young Master Yunlan,
He used to think that it was okay for you to accompany Mr. Zhan as a mistress,
But now you and Xia Huaishang already have a lively son,
But if you want to step on his old man's backbone and marry Mr. Zhan,
Then it will only push Mr. Zhan to a desperate situation. Do you have the heart to waste everything he has worked so hard to manage like this? "
Nan Xiangwan's words directly pointed at the pain point of the problem, there is no extra nonsense, just talk about the vital points,
"Now Mr. Zhan is forcing Mr. Zhan to choose between power and you. Mr. Zhan chooses the latter. I think Mr. Zhan thinks that Mr. Zhan's side won't work, and the next step should be to deal with you and that child... What? Look, things are only going to get worse..."
Speaking of which, draw out the tune,
"How about, Ms. An listen to my advice? First reject Mr. Zhan's marriage proposal, refuse to talk about this marriage certificate,
Persuasion, Quan Zhan and I pretend to be engaged or even pretend to be married to appease the old man.
You all endure it, survive this half a year, after Zhan Lao dies,
Zhan Zong is still the powerful Zhan Zong, and you are still Zhan Zong's favorite woman,
As for me, I can go wherever I want, and I will definitely not hinder you, how about it? "
An Xiaoqi could understand every word literally, but she didn't understand Nan Xiangwan's motivation for doing this.
After all, she could tell that Nan Xiangwan was very interested in the position of Mrs. Zhan Shao.
She raised her red lips and said lightly, "I don't quite understand... What is Miss Nan's motive for doing this?"
Nan Xiangwan shrugged and said frankly:
"To be honest, I am different from you, Miss An. I have lived a carefree life of being well-clothed and cared for by men since I was a child.
Born in a patriarchal family like our Nan family, the fate of a woman is fixed from birth,
She was born to consolidate the power of the Nan family, and her value determines her status in the family.
Whether she will be sold to a wealthy businessman as a mistress in the future, or used to marry a wealthy family, depends entirely on the size of the business chain she can create for the family.
I don't want to be forced by my impersonal father to marry an old man who can be my father,
So..., that's my motivation. "
Paused, and added,
"If I do this, once a mountain like Zhan Zong can restrain my ruthless father,
Secondly, during the period of being able to be close to the Zhan family, the business of the Nan family in Shengjing will definitely be icing on the cake.
Three, I can take advantage of this period to buffer the pressure that my ruthless father brings to me, and find a retreat for myself that is more suitable for me than President Zhan..."
Of course, there are four more.
She had to hide from the devil who wanted to kill her!
……
Zhan Xijue arrived at the Castle Manor half an hour earlier than usual.
When he got out of the car, he saw Zhan Xiuyuan's car parked on the parking lot, and immediately frowned.
Uncle Fu came over to get him a briefcase, and said as he walked:
"Young Madam has been in the study with Miss Nan for almost an hour, and the Patriarch hasn't made things difficult for Young Madam yet."
Zhan Xijue hummed expressionlessly, and asked, "Old man, where is he?"
Faber said:
"The head of the family said that it is rare for him to come here. He hasn't had a meal with you for a long time. He said that when you were young, you loved the pimple soup he made the most. Now you are making noodles with Mama Lin in the kitchen... He said it was dinner. Prepare."
Zhan Xijue had a sad expression and didn't express his opinion on this.
Walking into the castle, An Xiaoqi and Nan Xiangwan walked down the spiral staircase after changing into the indoor slippers at the entrance.
Zhan Xijue glanced directly at Nan Xiangwan, looking at An Xiaoqi behind her.
The little woman was wearing a smoky gray home dress, her hair was casually tied into a ball head, and a strand of hair was scattered on her temples.
There was no abnormality in the whole white and tender face, and even seeing him who came back early, she bent her eyes at him and smiled a little coquettishly.
Zhan Xijue saw that her expression was the same, thinking that the old man or Nan Xiangwan hadn't troubled her, he was a little relieved.
He withdrew his gaze from An Xiaoqi's face, and landed on Nan Xiangwan who had already walked down the steps.
Because his gaze was too aggressive, Nan Xiangwan felt chills running down his spine from his gaze, and waved at him, saying,
"Mr. Zhan, I just chatted with Ms. An for a while, why are you putting on such a big face for me?"
Zhan Xijue was expressionless: "What is there to talk about between you?"
Nan Xiangwan chuckled: "There are so many things to talk about between us women..."
Zhan Xijue didn't even let her finish speaking, and interrupted her with a half-smile:
"Xiang Wan, if I were you, apart from work, I should stay away from me and my people, you know?"
Nan Xiangwan shrugged and said innocently:
"Mr. Zhan, I have no other choice, right? Grandpa Zhan tricked me into coming here. I'm all here. Are you going to throw your face away?"
"Then now, you can go!"
After Zhan Xijue finished speaking, Zhan Xiuyuan, who was preparing dinner in the kitchen, came out holding a cooking shovel.
He blushed and yelled at Zhan Xijue: "Stinky boy, who are you telling to get out? I invited you tonight, so naturally I will stay for dinner."
Zhan Xijue raised his thick eyebrows, "Oh, so?"
Zhan Xiuyuan didn't understand the subtext in his words for a while,
"Yes, Wan Wan is my honored guest. She wants to stay for dinner. During the two days I was hospitalized, Wan Wan came to the hospital to take care of me. She is much better than your bastard grandson. I will invite you She eats."
Zhan Xijue waited for him to finish, then nodded in agreement.
After nodding his head, he raised his foot and walked towards An Xiaoqi.
He stared at An Xiaoqi's dark eyes for a while, then bowed his head and whispered in her ear:
"Go up and change clothes, we'll go out to eat later, huh?"
Zhan Xijue's voice was not loud, but it was not low either.
So, as soon as these words came out, Zhan Xiuyuan exploded: "Zhan Xijue, what do you mean?"
Zhan Xijue:
"What's the point? You're getting worse and worse as you get older. I'm not going to be really rebellious to you and drive you out of the castle manor.
Since you want to use my place to entertain your distinguished guests, what's wrong with me giving you the place? "
Zhan Xiuyuan's whole body trembled three times when he said this.
He took a deep breath, his white eyebrows stood upside down, his voice trembled because he was so angry,
"You bastard, you don't even want to have a meal with me, an old man, because of this woman?"
Zhan Xijue sneered, and said:
"Grandpa, can you not secretly change the concept? I am not willing to dine with you,
But you forced a woman that I can't even like into my territory, Sima Zhao's heart is known to everyone..., is it interesting? "
Having reached this point, Zhan Xiuyuan simply opened his mouth.
He threw away the shovel in his hand angrily, and said angrily:
"Bastard, you are willing to turn against me for a woman who can't bear children. You really want to step on my dead body and marry her, don't you?"
Zhan Xijue gave an affirmative answer without hesitation: "Yes!"
Zhan Xiuyuan was short of breath. After coughing a few times, he closed his eyes fiercely. After a long time, he said:
"Then you just wait until when Lao Tzu's body hardens before thinking about marrying her, at least for now, I won't allow it!"
Zhan Xijue's eyes were red, and when he was about to lose his temper, the woman's slender hand grabbed his cuff at this moment, and then burrowed into his palm.
There was not much sadness or embarrassment on her small face, she just looked into his eyes softly:
"Speak well, don't lose your temper every now and then, it's bad for your health and bad for your liver."
Her reassurance somewhat relieved the tense atmosphere.
Zhan Xijue's anger was soothed a lot, because of this, Zhan Xiuyuan felt that An Xiaoqi was a scourge.
His face became more and more ugly, he looked at An Xiaoqi with a stern face, and said coldly:
"An Xiaoqi, I won't say more about polite words.
In the past, I trusted you because I trusted your grandma, and I did not investigate your background.
Now, you are not some innocent and good woman,
Two can't give birth, and San gave birth to another wild species with your other wild men...,
Don't say that you are his wife, even if you are his mistress, you owe something.
A man has a face, a tree lives a skin, are you sticking to him shamelessly, do you want everyone in the capital to watch the jokes about our Zhan family? "
These words were very ugly, as if a knife had scratched An Xiaoqi's skin, causing her entire cheeks to burn and feel uncomfortable.
She pursed her lips and endured everything. There was no emotion in her voice, but it was strong:
"Hearing what you said, I suddenly felt that I was far from being shameless.
These days, there are a lot of rich people, and I don't care about being a member of them.
People are egoists, since you don't respect me, then don't blame the younger generation for being ruthless,
Even if you bump your head to death here now, you can't stop me from being with Zhan Xijue..."
"Bastard!"
After Zhan Xiuyuan was furious, he miraculously calmed down again.
He said lightly:
"Aren't you relying on Xijue to like you? Even if you had a little-known dirty past with Xia Huaishang before that,
Even if you had a child with him... I will admit all of these.As long as you can persuade Xi Jue to marry Nan Xiangwan,
I don't care about anything else.You should be together as long as you want, love as much as you want, I will never interfere with you. "
For Zhan Xiuyuan, this was already the biggest concession he could make.
However, when An Xiaoqi heard this, her entire chest still trembled involuntarily.
Subconsciously, she turned her head to look at the handsome man with a gloomy and indifferent expression.
She heard him say coldly:
"If the woman I love is destined to be a shady mistress for the rest of my life, then what's the point of me wanting to be the heir of the Zhan family?
He can't even have the woman he loves, even if he doesn't want to be the heir of the Zhan family. "
As soon as these words came out, Zhan Xiuyuan's eyes stared at Zhan Xijue coldly. The whites of his aged eyes were a little cloudy, but the sharpness accumulated over the years made people fearful.
He just stared coldly at him for a long while, then suddenly sneered:
"Just because you are still the heir of the Zhan family, if you are not the heir of the Zhan family, nor the heir of the Zhan family,
Just relying on the Dongfang Biological Group in your hand, you don’t need me to fight you, but your enemies can defeat you completely with all the effort,
When the time comes, you will have no power and no money, what will you use to protect her?
Even if you draw a clear line with the Zhan family and hide your name from her, are you sure that your enemies can't find out your identity?
At that time, you, who have neither power nor money, can only helplessly wait for the revenge of your enemies,
And the woman you cared for is the target of their revenge..."
After a pause, the tone became more and more cold,
"You are still too young and arrogant and arrogant. You want her to be safe and sound. The first thing you can't let go of is the power above your head. Only when your power is boundless enough can you cover up all disasters for her!"
Speaking of this, he drew the tone and said coldly, "Think about it carefully."
Did Zhan Xiuyuan not stay for dinner?
However, before he left with Nan Xiangwan, he said to An Xiaoqi:
"You are a smart girl, if you really love him,
You shouldn't just watch him give up the power he has managed so hard because of you when he is young and energetic.
Now because he is young, he will conceitedly choose the latter between power and women,
When he matures in a few years or when he is in danger and even his own life is in danger, he will definitely regret the choice he made today.
To love him is not to push him into a desperate situation, but at least to ensure his safety, what do you think? "
……
After Zhan Xiuyuan left these words, he took Nan Xiangwan away.
An Xiaoqi sat on the sofa, unable to describe how she felt.
It seemed that she wasn't influenced by Zhan Xiuyuan in any way. In fact, she was subconsciously aware of the troubles she would face if she insisted on staying with Zhan Xijue.
She could see through it, Zhan Xiuyuan would suppress Zhan Xijue and break them up even at the expense of his own interests.
Just like what Nan Xiangwan said, in order to force her to break up with him, Zhan Xiuyuan might want to expel Zhan Xijue from the Zhan clan.
If that's the case, Zhan Xijue, who has no power and power, what kind of capital will he use to fight against the enemy he used to fight against.
Undoubtedly, it was forcing him to a desperate situation.
An Xiaoqi felt unspeakably depressed.
She raised her hand to support her forehead, thinking whether she should wait for Zhan Xijue to have a good talk with him after taking a shower, when Mama Lin came over.
She creaked and said: "Young Madam, the team of wedding dress designers is still waiting to measure your size, do you see?"
Speaking of this, An Xiaoqi suddenly remembered that before Zhan Xiuyuan arrived, the wedding dress design team came.
If there were no Zhan Xiuyuan's surprise attack, An Xiaoqi should have measured the size of the wedding dress with peace of mind.
But..., if it is said that Zhan Xijue's safety was stepped on to get married, she would never be able to do it.
She waved her hand to Mama Lin and said, "Let them go."
After the sound fell, Zhan Xijue, who had gone upstairs to take a shower, came down.
He changed into smoky gray home clothes, which looked like a couple's style with An Xiaoqi's.
There was no joy or anger on his face, but there was a gloom that was hard to get rid of.
After An Xiaoqi finished speaking, he said to Mama Lin, "Let them wait and measure her later."
At this moment, An Xiaoqi looked up at him, subconsciously bit her lips, endured it, but still couldn't hold it back, and said to the man who had already walked in front of her:
"...Why don't you let them come another day? Anyway, the marriage certificate hasn't been pulled yet, so I don't care about it for a while. I want to have a good chat with you now..."
After she finished speaking, the man dragged her up from the sofa.
He looked at her eyebrows and eyes, touched her face with his palm, and squeezed it gently,
"Grandpa is the best at disintegrating people's hearts. If I'm really as miserable as he said,
If leaving the Zhan family is a useless existence, there is no need for him to force me to be the heir of the Zhan family.
Except for his tyrannical temper and his mania, the third uncle is actually more suitable than me to run the Zhan family's ancestral business.
Therefore, he is now forcing us to separate is also temporary,
He won't let it go if he doesn't make it a point to realize that we are all inseparable. "
paused,
"The old man still values his heirs too much. The third uncle and Ji Nuan didn't keep their children.
The second uncle's son is not up to snuff, he himself is in the late stage of lung cancer,
He entrusted the responsibility of extending his heirs to my eldest grandson, who is strong and healthy,
So, now is just the time for him to show his power, and in the future, more excessive things will happen to force us to separate...,
This is just the beginning, you are going to retreat, you will make me feel that all the persistence and dedication now will be worthless, do you understand? "
An Xiaoqi pursed her lips, and after roughly telling Zhan Xijue about the conversation between Nan Xiangwan and her in the study, said:
"...Actually, I think Miss Nan's suggestion is feasible. Grandpa Zhan's health is getting worse and worse,
Presumably his greatest wish before he died was to see you get married... If you and Ms. Nan pretend to be engaged and stay together for half a year,
Wait...after Grandpa Zhan passed away without any regrets, we will arrange to get married. In fact, I have no objection.
After all, since there can be a good and gentle way to resolve the current conflict, why does it have to make everyone unhappy?
If Grandpa Zhan really bumped his head to death in front of us because of this incident, we would all be unjustified in our conscience, wouldn't we? "
After the sound fell, Zhan Xijue's entire face darkened.
At this moment, he pinched An Xiaoqi's waist severely, and she frowned in pain.
The nude pink knee-length dress, with a v-neck design, reduces her usual fierceness in the workplace and adds a bit of daughter's gentleness.
She has almost no accessories on her body, only a pair of pearl earrings, even so, it still gives people a sense of sight of a noble lady descending to earth.
After supporting Zhan Xiuyuan to sit down, she said coquettishly to Zhan Xiuyuan:
"Grandpa Zhan, you just said that you want me to accompany you to dinner, how can you be like this? Just lure me here?
Even if you want to match my marriage with Xijue wholeheartedly, you shouldn't force the bull's head to drink like this, isn't it counterproductive? "
paused,
"How should I say, the person involved is a matter between the three of us young people, why don't you let me talk to Miss An alone?
This is better than going head-to-head.There is one hour left, and it's time for Xijue to get off work.

Zhan Xiuyuan felt that what Nan Xiangwan said made sense.
He drank the tea that Mama Lin brought over, and said without raising his eyebrows:
"Since you have said so, I, who stepped into the coffin, will sell your face."
Nan Xiangwan looked sideways at An Xiaoqi when he finished speaking, and said with a smile, "An Xiaoqi, shall we talk?"
An Xiaoqi knew that Zhan Xiuyuan came straight to the Castle Manor as soon as he was discharged from the hospital.

Zhan Zong is still the powerful Zhan Zong, and you are still Zhan Zong's favorite woman,
As for me, I can go wherever I want, and I will definitely not hinder you, how about it? "

"Then now, you can go!"
After Zhan Xijue finished speaking, Zhan Xiuyuan, who was preparing dinner in the kitchen, came out holding a cooking shovel.
He blushed and yelled at Zhan Xijue: "Stinky boy, who are you telling to get out? I invited you tonight, so naturally I will stay for dinner."
Zhan Xijue raised his thick eyebrows, "Oh, so?"
Zhan Xiuyuan didn't understand the subtext in his words for a while,
"Yes, Wan Wan is my honored guest. She wants to stay for dinner. During the two days I was hospitalized, Wan Wan came to the hospital to take care of me. She is much better than your bastard grandson. I will invite you She eats."
Zhan Xijue waited for him to finish, then nodded in agreement.
After nodding his head, he raised his foot and walked towards An Xiaoqi.
He stared at An Xiaoqi's dark eyes for a while, then bowed his head and whispered in her ear:
"Go up and change clothes, we'll go out to eat later, huh?"
Zhan Xijue's voice was not loud, but it was not low either.
So, as soon as these words came out, Zhan Xiuyuan exploded: "Zhan Xijue, what do you mean?"
Zhan Xijue:
"What's the point? You're getting worse and worse as you get older. I'm not going to be really rebellious to you and drive you out of the castle manor.
Since you want to use my place to entertain your distinguished guests, what's wrong with me giving you the place? "
Zhan Xiuyuan's whole body trembled three times when he said this.
He took a deep breath, his white eyebrows stood upside down, his voice trembled because he was so angry,
"You bastard, you don't even want to have a meal with me, an old man, because of this woman?"
Zhan Xijue sneered, and said:
"Grandpa, can you not secretly change the concept? I am not willing to dine with you,
But you forced a woman that I can't even like into my territory, Sima Zhao's heart is known to everyone..., is it interesting? "
Having reached this point, Zhan Xiuyuan simply opened his mouth.
He threw away the shovel in his hand angrily, and said angrily:
"Bastard, you are willing to turn against me for a woman who can't bear children. You really want to step on my dead body and marry her, don't you?"
Zhan Xijue gave an affirmative answer without hesitation: "Yes!"
Zhan Xiuyuan was short of breath. After coughing a few times, he closed his eyes fiercely. After a long time, he said:
"Then you just wait until when Lao Tzu's body hardens before thinking about marrying her, at least for now, I won't allow it!"
Zhan Xijue's eyes were red, and when he was about to lose his temper, the woman's slender hand grabbed his cuff at this moment, and then burrowed into his palm.
There was not much sadness or embarrassment on her small face, she just looked into his eyes softly:
"Speak well, don't lose your temper every now and then, it's bad for your health and bad for your liver."
Her reassurance somewhat relieved the tense atmosphere.
Zhan Xijue's anger was soothed a lot, because of this, Zhan Xiuyuan felt that An Xiaoqi was a scourge.
His face became more and more ugly, he looked at An Xiaoqi with a stern face, and said coldly:
"An Xiaoqi, I won't say more about polite words.
In the past, I trusted you because I trusted your grandma, and I did not investigate your background.
Now, you are not some innocent and good woman,
Two can't give birth, and San gave birth to another wild species with your other wild men...,
Don't say that you are his wife, even if you are his mistress, you owe something.
A man has a face, a tree lives a skin, are you sticking to him shamelessly, do you want everyone in the capital to watch the jokes about our Zhan family? "
These words were very ugly, as if a knife had scratched An Xiaoqi's skin, causing her entire cheeks to burn and feel uncomfortable.
She pursed her lips and endured everything. There was no emotion in her voice, but it was strong:
"Hearing what you said, I suddenly felt that I was far from being shameless.
These days, there are a lot of rich people, and I don't care about being a member of them.
People are egoists, since you don't respect me, then don't blame the younger generation for being ruthless,
Even if you bump your head to death here now, you can't stop me from being with Zhan Xijue..."
"Bastard!"
After Zhan Xiuyuan was furious, he miraculously calmed down again.
He said lightly:
"Aren't you relying on Xijue to like you? Even if you had a little-known dirty past with Xia Huaishang before that,
Even if you had a child with him... I will admit all of these.As long as you can persuade Xi Jue to marry Nan Xiangwan,
I don't care about anything else.You should be together as long as you want, love as much as you want, I will never interfere with you. "
For Zhan Xiuyuan, this was already the biggest concession he could make.
However, when An Xiaoqi heard this, her entire chest still trembled involuntarily.
Subconsciously, she turned her head to look at the handsome man with a gloomy and indifferent expression.
She heard him say coldly:
"If the woman I love is destined to be a shady mistress for the rest of my life, then what's the point of me wanting to be the heir of the Zhan family?
He can't even have the woman he loves, even if he doesn't want to be the heir of the Zhan family. "
As soon as these words came out, Zhan Xiuyuan's eyes stared at Zhan Xijue coldly. The whites of his aged eyes were a little cloudy, but the sharpness accumulated over the years made people fearful.
He just stared coldly at him for a long while, then suddenly sneered:
"Just because you are still the heir of the Zhan family, if you are not the heir of the Zhan family, nor the heir of the Zhan family,
Just relying on the Dongfang Biological Group in your hand, you don’t need me to fight you, but your enemies can defeat you completely with all the effort,
When the time comes, you will have no power and no money, what will you use to protect her?
Even if you draw a clear line with the Zhan family and hide your name from her, are you sure that your enemies can't find out your identity?
At that time, you, who have neither power nor money, can only helplessly wait for the revenge of your enemies,
And the woman you cared for is the target of their revenge..."
After a pause, the tone became more and more cold,
"You are still too young and arrogant and arrogant. You want her to be safe and sound. The first thing you can't let go of is the power above your head. Only when your power is boundless enough can you cover up all disasters for her!"
Speaking of this, he drew the tone and said coldly, "Think about it carefully."
Did Zhan Xiuyuan not stay for dinner?
However, before he left with Nan Xiangwan, he said to An Xiaoqi:
"You are a smart girl, if you really love him,
You shouldn't just watch him give up the power he has managed so hard because of you when he is young and energetic.
Now because he is young, he will conceitedly choose the latter between power and women,
When he matures in a few years or when he is in danger and even his own life is in danger, he will definitely regret the choice he made today.
To love him is not to push him into a desperate situation, but at least to ensure his safety, what do you think? "
……
After Zhan Xiuyuan left these words, he took Nan Xiangwan away.
An Xiaoqi sat on the sofa, unable to describe how she felt.
It seemed that she wasn't influenced by Zhan Xiuyuan in any way. In fact, she was subconsciously aware of the troubles she would face if she insisted on staying with Zhan Xijue.
She could see through it, Zhan Xiuyuan would suppress Zhan Xijue and break them up even at the expense of his own interests.
Just like what Nan Xiangwan said, in order to force her to break up with him, Zhan Xiuyuan might want to expel Zhan Xijue from the Zhan clan.
If that's the case, Zhan Xijue, who has no power and power, what kind of capital will he use to fight against the enemy he used to fight against.
Undoubtedly, it was forcing him to a desperate situation.
An Xiaoqi felt unspeakably depressed.
She raised her hand to support her forehead, thinking whether she should wait for Zhan Xijue to have a good talk with him after taking a shower, when Mama Lin came over.
She creaked and said: "Young Madam, the team of wedding dress designers is still waiting to measure your size, do you see?"
Speaking of this, An Xiaoqi suddenly remembered that before Zhan Xiuyuan arrived, the wedding dress design team came.
If there were no Zhan Xiuyuan's surprise attack, An Xiaoqi should have measured the size of the wedding dress with peace of mind.
But..., if it is said that Zhan Xijue's safety was stepped on to get married, she would never be able to do it.
She waved her hand to Mama Lin and said, "Let them go."
After the sound fell, Zhan Xijue, who had gone upstairs to take a shower, came down.
He changed into smoky gray home clothes, which looked like a couple's style with An Xiaoqi's.
There was no joy or anger on his face, but there was a gloom that was hard to get rid of.
After An Xiaoqi finished speaking, he said to Mama Lin, "Let them wait and measure her later."
At this moment, An Xiaoqi looked up at him, subconsciously bit her lips, endured it, but still couldn't hold it back, and said to the man who had already walked in front of her:
"...Why don't you let them come another day? Anyway, the marriage certificate hasn't been pulled yet, so I don't care about it for a while. I want to have a good chat with you now..."
After she finished speaking, the man dragged her up from the sofa.
He looked at her eyebrows and eyes, touched her face with his palm, and squeezed it gently,
"Grandpa is the best at disintegrating people's hearts. If I'm really as miserable as he said,
If leaving the Zhan family is a useless existence, there is no need for him to force me to be the heir of the Zhan family.
Except for his tyrannical temper and his mania, the third uncle is actually more suitable than me to run the Zhan family's ancestral business.
Therefore, he is now forcing us to separate is also temporary,
He won't let it go if he doesn't make it a point to realize that we are all inseparable. "
paused,
"The old man still values his heirs too much. The third uncle and Ji Nuan didn't keep their children.
The second uncle's son is not up to snuff, he himself is in the late stage of lung cancer,
He entrusted the responsibility of extending his heirs to my eldest grandson, who is strong and healthy,
So, now is just the time for him to show his power, and in the future, more excessive things will happen to force us to separate...,
This is just the beginning, you are going to retreat, you will make me feel that all the persistence and dedication now will be worthless, do you understand? "
An Xiaoqi pursed her lips, and after roughly telling Zhan Xijue about the conversation between Nan Xiangwan and her in the study, said:
"...Actually, I think Miss Nan's suggestion is feasible. Grandpa Zhan's health is getting worse and worse,
Presumably his greatest wish before he died was to see you get married... If you and Ms. Nan pretend to be engaged and stay together for half a year,
Wait...after Grandpa Zhan passed away without any regrets, we will arrange to get married. In fact, I have no objection.
After all, since there can be a good and gentle way to resolve the current conflict, why does it have to make everyone unhappy?
If Grandpa Zhan really bumped his head to death in front of us because of this incident, we would all be unjustified in our conscience, wouldn't we? "
After the sound fell, Zhan Xijue's entire face darkened.
At this moment, he pinched An Xiaoqi's waist severely, and she frowned in pain.
