Hong Kong is in full swing

Chapter 162 What is your purpose in looking for me?

I will arrive in Hong Kong this afternoon, and we will go find Zhong Xinyuan together to see if we can salvage the situation."

He still had some concerns, fearing that Yu Wan would get into unnecessary trouble if she faced it alone.

After careful consideration, Qiao Heng finally made up his mind not to allow Yu Wan to deal with this complicated situation and Zhong Xinyuan alone.

On the other end of the phone, Yu Wan replied faintly, followed by a slight sound - she hung up the call.

As the screen fell into darkness, an indescribable emotion arose in her heart, which was her dissatisfaction with Qiao Heng for not understanding the extent of Zhong Xinyuan's hatred for her.

What if they appear together?

The other party was already angry enough just seeing him appear here.

This was the first time Yu Wan had experienced such a situation, and this unprecedented experience made her, who had never been very popular, feel fortunate at this moment - thanks to her poor interpersonal relationships in daily life, which actually became a safe haven at the critical moment.

Time passed quietly until the afternoon, and warm sunlight began to shine in.

At this moment, Qiao Heng, who had been waiting at the port for a long time, finally appeared.

Next, he was seen driving the car slowly towards the Zhong family villa located in the picturesque place - Shek O. Sitting next to him was naturally Yu Wan.

After arriving, the scene before their eyes was just as expected: a proud and indifferent attitude, this was the first impression Zhong Xinyuan gave to everyone.

It is not easy to meet her; not only do you have to be patient enough to wait for a long time, but you also have to endure her various attitudes before she is willing to show up and meet you.

It was not until the lights came on, around six o'clock, that the familiar figure stood up from the card table and immediately ordered her men to bring the group of people who had been waiting for a long time into the house to see her.

Almost step by step, he led Yu Wan into the spacious and bright hall. When he saw Zhong Xinyuan, he quickly bowed and said, "Good evening, respected Miss Zhong."

Hearing this extremely polite yet slightly humble voice, the other party simply nodded nonchalantly, "Oh, is it so late already? I'm so sorry to have kept you waiting for so long."

Faced with such a perfunctory answer, Qiao Heng's face did not show the slightest displeasure. "You are very polite. Miss Zhong's time is very valuable. It is an honor for you to take the time to meet with us."

Noticing the man's flattering attitude in front of her, Zhong Xinyuan was obviously very satisfied. She immediately turned to the man sitting on the sofa and looked down at him from a condescending attitude.

"Since you've come here specifically to visit me, please tell me what your purpose is."

After receiving the instructions, Qiao Heng turned his gaze to his companion, indicating that she should explain.

Feeling this message coming through, Yu Wan stepped forward and said, "It's like this, Miss Zhong. Recently, rumors have been circulating about our Qiao Enterprise taking inappropriate measures against other companies. We're worried that these rumors will damage the Zhong family's reputation, so we've come here to clarify the facts and hope to eliminate any possible misunderstandings."

Upon hearing this, Zhong Xinyuan didn't respond immediately, only raising her eyebrows slightly, seemingly uninterested. "So where do these rumors come from? Why not just go straight to the source? Why are you bothering me with this useless information? Could it be that you are also part of the group spreading this information?"

The irony in the tone was quite obvious.

She pulled the corners of her mouth, with a bit of disdain in her eyes, "Oh, I see, you came here to blackmail me, right?"

Her tone was full of doubt and dissatisfaction.

I had expected that she wouldn't admit it easily.

Yu Wan sighed helplessly, as if she was at her wit's end about the current situation. "Ms. Zhong, that's really not what we meant. You misunderstood our intentions."

He tried to ease the awkward atmosphere with a soft voice.

"misunderstanding?"

Hearing this, Zhong Xinyuan immediately raised her voice, clearly irritated. "Isn't being two-faced your style? How have I misunderstood you?"

Her tone was sharp and direct, leaving no room for the other party.

"I'm not……"

Yu Wan opened her mouth to defend herself, but was quickly interrupted by her companions.

Qiao Heng realized that continuing like this would only make the situation worse, and quickly interrupted, "We didn't do well enough."

His attitude seemed particularly sincere. "It's all because of our inappropriate words that Miss Zhong misunderstood us. Please forgive us. Yu Wan, why don't you apologize to Miss Zhong quickly!"

He winked at Yu Wan, hoping that she would cooperate and continue the scene.

Seeing this, Yu Wan had no choice but to pretend to be wronged and lowered her head, "I'm sorry, Miss Zhong, this is indeed my fault. I was too impatient."

When he said these words, his voice was low and full of apology, and he seemed to truly regret his previous behavior.

Speaking of urgency, this made Zhong Xinyuan, who was standing opposite and keeping a calm and observing attitude, suddenly remember that in what happened not long ago, the pressure and suffering that Yu Wan had endured for the Qiao family was indeed very great.

But she didn't choose to let them go.

On the contrary, seeing Yu Wan like this, Zhong Xinyuan felt a surge of pleasure in her heart.

After all, the person who was always arrogant and rude to her in the past now had to admit his mistakes, which really made her feel very refreshed.

He acted like he was not afraid of anyone before, but his true colors showed as soon as he faced a real challenge, right?

After glancing at Yu Wan with contempt, Zhong Xinyuan asked coldly, "Alright, stop talking nonsense. What exactly is your purpose in coming here to see me?"

Seeing Zhong Xinyuan's impatient attitude, Qiao Heng hurriedly winked at Yu Wan beside him, signaling her to continue explaining as previously agreed.

After sensing the hint from Qiao Heng's eyes, Yu Wan bit her lip and hesitated for a moment, though she was still reluctant. Then she reluctantly said, "Miss Zhong, actually... the Qiao family has decided to cancel the original plan to marry Young Master Wei..."

As she spoke, the expression on her face became more and more entangled and painful.

Faced with such obvious disappointment and resentment, Zhong Xinyuan felt a smug triumph in her heart once again, but she didn't show it. Instead, she maintained a cold attitude and asked, "What's the point of telling me about this? What does it have to do with me whether your Qiao family plans to form an alliance with other forces? Do you think I care about this?"

There was a sense of indifference in his words.

Yu Wan pinched the corner of her clothes, looking like she was about to cry. "I'm sorry, Miss Zhong. I didn't express myself clearly enough. Maybe I didn't make my meaning clear enough before."
