They wanted you to divorce and leave, but you became a rich woman's dream man.

As the two figures gradually walked out of the hall.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhou Lanfang and her daughter Sun Juan lowered their posture to the extreme, quickly approaching Ou Ya and uttering a string of flattering words, as if they wanted to elevate Zhou Meiling and Gao Jun to the highest heavens, praising them to the skies.

Ou Ya was overjoyed, her face beaming with happiness, and her thoughts began to wander freely.

The owner of a five-star hotel must be incredibly wealthy...

Only Oulan remained slightly frowning. She silently took out her phone and quickly tapped on the screen to search for this international hotel.

The screen showed that this was a luxury five-star hotel, resembling a commercial behemoth covering more than 70 acres.

It boasts five-star and five-diamond accolades, encompassing a full range of guest rooms, specialty restaurants, international conference facilities, fitness and entertainment, and other functional modules. It is renowned throughout Shanghai and is located in the core area of ​​the High-tech Zone, a future development hub, with a market value exceeding 10 billion yuan.

Oulan's eyes flashed, and he quickly found out the main company, "Haiquan International Co., Ltd."

She clicked the mouse lightly, opened the corresponding official information of the company, and quickly browsed the important content with lightning speed.

Upon seeing this crucial information, Oran took a deep breath, and some of his previously vague guesses were now strongly confirmed.

Her gaze involuntarily focused on the three words "Ye Xiaowei".

As Zhou Meiling's aunt, she was naturally quite familiar with Zhou Meiling.

Currently, Haiquan International Limited has a market value of nearly 1 billion, and this mere 1000% of the shares is worth the equivalent of 10 million.

Oulan has long worked in finance at large companies and is very familiar with corporate equity structures and registration processes.

Based on a comprehensive analysis of Zhou Meiling's personality traits, various behaviors, and all currently known information, the truth of the matter is gradually becoming clear and is about to be revealed.

Either Lingling and Weiwei both have ambiguous relationships with Gao Jun;

Alternatively, Gao Jun might have been borrowed by Zhou Meiling from her best friend to act as a shield.

However, judging from Zhou Meiling's various behaviors, in either case, her affection for Gao Jun is genuine and unadulterated.

This is not hard to understand. A billionaire who is so young, handsome and outstanding in personal qualities will inevitably attract countless admirers like a magnet, who will flock around him like bees and butterflies.

Thinking of this, Oran sighed heavily again, his expression slightly conflicted and complicated.

Seeing this, Ou Ya couldn't help but ask with some displeasure, "Lanlan, do you still doubt that Gao Jun is a liar?"

Oran shook his head slightly and slowly said, "How could that be? He's now in such a high position that he's no longer someone I can question at will. It's just..."

"But what?" Zhou Lanfang pursed her lips and said anxiously, "Lingling must hold on tight to such a good catch and not let him slip away!"

Oulan glanced at Ouya, their eyes met, and she gave him a meaningful look before saying, "Sister, let's go back to our room and pack our things."

Ou Ya nodded with a hint of surprise, then followed Ou Lan quickly toward the master bedroom.

Zhou Lanfang and Sun Juan behind them exchanged a glance, then huddled together and began whispering to each other.

……

Gao Jun, with his arm around Zhou Meiling's waist, slowly walked through the corridor and arrived at the banquet hall. Outside the arched floor-to-ceiling windows of the banquet hall was a wide-open park view.

Because it was night, the scenery outside looked somewhat hazy and blurry. One could only vaguely see the twinkling stars in the sky and the scattered lights of the city streets in the distance, which intertwined like a dreamlike painting.

Zhou Meiling nestled gently against his chest, and the two stood quietly in front of the French windows, enjoying this moment of tranquility.

In Zhou Meiling's somewhat dazed gaze, the starlight in the sky seemed to be guided by an invisible hand, miraculously forming a heart-shaped pattern.

For some reason, their figures seemed to be positioned right in the center of the heart-shaped pattern.

"So beautiful," Zhou Meiling murmured involuntarily.

"You are beautiful too." Gao Jun gazed at Zhou Meiling, who was dressed in white, his eyes full of tenderness and affection. He slowly lowered his head and moved closer to her.

Zhou Meiling slightly raised her small head, her rosy lips parted slightly, and her breathing became rapid. She knew in her heart that she was about to give her first kiss at this moment, and nervousness and anticipation intertwined in her heart.

"Ring ring—" Just at this critical moment, a sudden cell phone ringtone rang out. Zhou Meiling opened her eyes abruptly and instantly felt her bag vibrate slightly.

She frantically lowered her head, fumbling in her bag for her phone. When she saw the name "Weiwei" on the screen, her heart skipped a beat, and a sense of foreboding washed over her.

It felt as if the beautiful dream I had just woven had been ruthlessly shattered in an instant, and a chill ran through my heart, as if I had fallen into an ice cellar.

Gao Jun raised his eyebrows slightly, a hint of guilt flashing across his face.

Zhou Meiling answered the phone dejectedly. "Hello, Weiwei."

"I was busy and didn't see your WeChat message."

"I can't have dinner with you tonight. My relatives are visiting Shanghai, and I have to take care of them."

“Um…that…you don’t know her…” Gao Jun keenly sensed the change in Zhou Meiling’s emotions. He gently walked behind her, embraced her tenderly, and lowered his head to give her a light kiss on the cheek.

At this moment, his girlfriend Ye Xiaowei's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Okay, Lingling, you go ahead and do your work. Just let me know if you need any help." Gao Jun, after all, had received a good education for many years, and the correct values ​​he had cultivated since childhood were now struggling wildly in his heart, and he was strongly condemning his own behavior deep in his heart.

He silently apologized in his heart.

Zhou Meiling hurriedly hung up the phone, feeling as if all her strength had left her. She leaned limply against Gao Jun, her face flushed red.

She swayed slightly, reaching out to try and stop Gao Jun's restless hand, and scolded, "What are you doing? Didn't you see Weiwei called?"

"Aren't you my girlfriend? What's wrong with getting closer?" Gao Jun's hands were strong and large.

Zhou Meiling bit her lip, her eyes welling up with tears, and her voice trembled slightly as she said, "As a soon-to-be-employed legal assistant, Gao Jun, I can tell you definitively. The crime of indecent assault refers to a crime committed by a person against another's will through violence, threats, or other means. Common acts of indecent assault include..."

Gao Jun couldn't help but find it amusing, but his hands didn't stop moving. Instead, he hugged her even tighter. "Zhou Meiling, you admitted to yourself in front of your mother, aunt, cousin, and other relatives that I am your boyfriend."

"That's all fake! You and Weiwei are the real ones. Also, the car keys in your pocket are bothering me!" Zhou Meiling shook her head desperately, her face full of struggle.

Gao Jun gently straightened her body, his gaze sweeping from top to bottom, carefully examining her dark, bright eyes, her delicate nose, her full, alluring lips, and her long eyelashes.

Their eyes met in mid-air, and at that moment, a subtle emotion seemed to flow quietly between them, as if they had touched some secrets hidden deep in their hearts.

"Jun-ge," Zhou Meiling suddenly looked up, staring directly into his eyes, and asked, "Have you ever liked me?"

All dreams originate from the subtle traces of reality. She once dreamed that she returned to her university days and successfully won Gao Jun's heart, which may be a manifestation of her subconscious belief that Gao Jun had feelings for her.

"If you're talking about that instinctive attraction men have for women, then it's definitely there. After all, you're pretty and have a good figure. Although your breasts are a bit small, they fit perfectly," Gao Jun said.

Zhou Meiling felt a current travel from her lips throughout her body, a tingling sensation that made her feel as if she were riding a gentle breeze, floating to the clouds, completely immersed in this sweet yet stimulating atmosphere.

Inside the banquet hall, the dinner proceeded slowly in a harmonious and lively atmosphere.

Zhou Lanfang and Sun Juan were like two tireless megaphones, constantly spewing out all sorts of flattering and ingratiating words, praising Gao Jun and Zhou Meiling incessantly.

This made Zhou Meiling, who had just felt guilty about what had happened, blush with embarrassment, her face turning as red as a ripe apple.

However, in this seemingly harmonious scene, Gao Jun always vaguely felt that there was an indescribable strangeness hidden in the gazes of Ou Ya and Ou Lan when they looked at him.

After Gao Jun drove away from Haiquan International Hotel, Ou Ya pulled Zhou Meiling to the private conference room in the presidential suite.

With a crisp click, the conference room door was locked tight.

Ou Ya's expression turned serious, and she asked solemnly, "Lingling, you must tell Mom the truth, what exactly is going on between you and Gao Jun?!"

Zhou Meiling was startled by the sudden serious atmosphere. Her eyes involuntarily began to dart away, and she responded weakly, "We...we are boyfriend and girlfriend."

Ou Ya raised her hand and gently tapped her forehead, then said, "Let me ask you another question: Do you truly like him?"

Zhou Meiling's face instantly turned bright red, like a delicate rose. She nodded gently and hummed in agreement.

Ou Ya sighed helplessly and continued, "Do you know who the shareholders of this grand hotel are?"

"I don't know." Zhou Meiling blinked, her face full of confusion, and asked, "What does this have to do with me?"

Looking at her bewildered expression, Ou Ya gave her a look of disappointment and tapped her on the forehead again, saying, "Let me tell you, this five-star hotel is worth a billion yuan. There are only two shareholders. Besides Gao Jun, there is a woman named Ye Xiaowei, who also owns 1% of the shares."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Meiling's expression froze instantly; she truly knew nothing about it.

She only heard Weiwei say that Gao Jun gave 2000 million yuan to acquire the shares.

But she never really thought about whether the acquired shares would ultimately belong to Weiwei.

Looking back now, it's likely that the 2000 million really was given to Weiwei.

Gao Jun gifted Weiwei a villa, shares in a five-star hotel, and 2000 million yuan.

Even though Weiwei was her best friend, she couldn't help but feel a strong pang of jealousy.

He's so good to Vivi!

Zhou Meiling was never good at pretending, and her inner emotions were completely displayed on her face.

Ou Ya gently shook her head and said, "I know Weiwei's personality very well. She's much more sensible than you. You're no match for her at all. Although it's only 1% of the shares, it represents an attitude. It's obvious that he prefers Weiwei. Their relationship has gone beyond just feelings and has even extended into the business world."

Zhou Meiling's face turned pale, her lips trembled slightly, and she said dryly, "I know."

Looking at her daughter, Ou Ya tenderly embraced her and said earnestly, "Gao Jun is indeed exceptionally outstanding. Even your aunt said that among all the people she knows and has heard of, none are more remarkable than him. Being with such an important person will drastically change your future. If you truly love him and are certain of his worth, then strive for it. No matter how good your relationship with Weiwei is, there are some things you absolutely cannot back down from when it comes to matters of the heart. Happiness is something you have to grasp yourself."

Tears welled in Zhou Meiling's eyes, and she said in a slightly choked voice, "I came later, I can't do this."

Ou Ya sighed and said, "If you can't fight for him, then leave him as soon as possible. Find a man who truly loves you to marry, and you can live a peaceful and ordinary life together."

Zhou Meiling suddenly raised her head, her eyes filled with stubbornness, and said loudly, "At worst, I'll never get married and just stay with you. I'm about to start a job now, and I'll earn more money than my aunt, enough to give you a good life."

"Okay, okay, stop saying such hurtful things." Ou Ya quickly patted her daughter's back gently, trying to calm her down.

After a while, Zhou Meiling gradually calmed down.

Ou Ya blinked, leaned close to her daughter's ear, and whispered, "Listen to your mother, from now on, when you're together, don't use protection. It would be great if we could have a child."

Zhou Meiling was taken aback at first, but then she realized what was going on when she saw her mother's slightly sly expression.

She quickly covered her burning face with her hands, her heart pounding wildly in her chest. (End of Chapter)
