A dowry of one billion, and I'll marry him!

As soon as she finished speaking, Shi Yanxia said, "Okay."

Shen Lianchu pricked up his ears in disbelief and asked, "You, you agreed?"

On the other end of the phone, Shi Yanxia ate her cake without saying a word.

Gu Qing pushed the door open and came in. He could vaguely hear Gu Qing talking to Zhan Jinglin in a low voice. On the other end of the phone, Shen Lianchu's heart was itching with excitement.

"Shi Yanxia," she called out quickly.

When she realized that Shi Yanxia wasn't speaking, she held up her phone and saw that the signal was full, but there was no response from Shi Yanxia except for the man's voice.

"Sister, are you listening? You just agreed, didn't you?"

"Shi Yanxia, ​​say something."

Shen Lianchu was furious. He had just clearly heard Shi Yanxia say, "Okay," but now she was silent.

The more Shi Yanxia remained silent, the more irritable she became. Recently, she had been burdened with many things, making it hard for her to breathe, and she was no longer the gentle woman she used to be.

She paced back and forth restlessly, wanting to go into the private restaurant to find someone, but was blocked by the bodyguards outside the door.

Even after revealing her identity as a member of the Shen family, no one in the store even glanced at her!

At this moment, Shen Lianchu felt somewhat humiliated, and even Shen Zhinan felt extremely embarrassed.

He had heard of this restaurant before; it was said that only the rich and powerful could dine there, not to mention those who could enter private rooms! Dining here was all about status.

Unexpectedly, even with the power of the Shen family, they couldn't take a single step forward.

So who exactly was the man next to Shi Yanxia just now?

Could it be Zhan Jinglin? No, absolutely not, Zhan Jinglin is clearly on the verge of death.

He had no idea that Shi Yanxia had other friends besides the Shen family. Besides, he had always kept Shi Yanxia under his control and did not allow her to have free time to contact other people.

When did Shen Zhinan meet this man? Could it be that he was behind the recent suppression of the Shen family? Thinking of this, Shen Zhinan felt a little short of breath.

Since taking over the Shen family business, his life had been smooth sailing. He never imagined that one day he would be so embarrassed that he would be pacing outside the restaurant.

"Shi Yanxia, ​​are you playing me?" Shen Lianchu couldn't help but roar angrily.

Unfortunately, there was still no response on the other end of the phone, and just as she was about to unleash a torrent of curses, the call was disconnected.

After hanging up the phone and blocking the number, Shi Yanxia looked up at him.

"After your reminder last night, I had someone investigate the people around us, and we found that the Shen family does indeed have some private financial dealings with the Zhan family," Zhan Jinglin said coldly.

In the past, he might have thought it was unimportant.

After all, the old man of the Shen family had some connection with his grandfather, but now he found that things were not as simple as they seemed.

The fact that the Shen family could control his condition meant they had been secretly monitoring him all along!

As a powerful and influential family, they would never allow others to spy on them.

Upon hearing Zhan Jinglin's words, Shi Yanxia glanced thoughtfully out the window, vaguely sensing that there was a secret behind it that they were unaware of.

What exactly is the secret?

"I'm full. If there's nothing else, I'll be going now," Shi Yanxia said softly.

Seeing this, Zhan Jinglin slowly stood up and followed behind her, saying in a low voice, "Shall I take you home?"

"No need, I drove myself. I'm going to meet someone in a bit," Shi Yanxia said softly. As she walked out, the manager and the other waiters stood in two rows.

Seeing her and Zhan Jinglin leave, he quickly bowed and said, "Young Master Zhan, please take care. Young Madam, please take care."

The two walked out side by side. Shen Lianchu watched this scene, her eyes almost bloodshot as she glared at Shi Yanxia, ​​about to step forward.

The bodyguard immediately stepped in front of her and forcibly pushed her aside.

"Ah, why are you pushing me? Shi Yanxia, ​​you stop right there!" Shen Lianchu exclaimed anxiously.

Hearing her angry roar, Shen Zhinan frowned and looked at her.

She noticed that Shen Lianchu was looking at Shi Yanxia with a ferocious expression, her usual gentle demeanor gone.

Shen Zhinan felt embarrassed and turned to walk towards the car. Shen Lianchu was pushed back a few steps by the bodyguard and almost fell to the ground.

As Shi Yanxia spoke with the man, the man bent down and listened attentively to her.

The man then nodded slightly, watched her get into the car, and only then did he turn around and get into his Porsche!

"Ah!" Shen Lianchu stamped her foot in frustration. She ran forward quickly, watched the Porsche drive away, walked back to Shen Zhinan's car, opened the door, and got in.

She kept swallowing, tears welling up in her eyes.

"Brother! Have you found out who that man was?" Shen Lianchu's voice trembled slightly.

She wanted to find something on Shi Yanxia and then use it to implicate the Zhan family. Without her having to lift a finger, the Zhan family could kill Shi Yanxia.

Thinking of this, she took out her phone.

"The license plate says 'War A8'," Shen Zhinan said in a low, hoarse voice, his dark eyes fixed on the Porsche's license plate.

Upon hearing "Warrior A8," her fingertips trembled as she held her phone, causing it to fall onto her lap.

She turned her head in surprise, and Shen Zhinan looked at her incredulously, asking, "What does this mean?"

She seemed to have guessed it, but didn't want to admit it.

“In the whole world, only the Zhan family has special license plates. Zhan A8 is the symbol of the Zhan family’s leader. His license plate does not require yielding, and even famous people in the political world have to give way to him,” Shen Zhinan said in a hoarse voice.

As Shen Lianchu listened, her heart nearly died.

"The head of the Zhan family? Impossible, isn't that person about to die? That's why Shi Yanxia was sent there for a marriage to ward off bad luck. Does that mean she succeeded? Marrying someone to ward off bad luck is a superstition, it's impossible for that to work."

"Brother, hurry! Drive and catch up with Shi Yanxia. We need to find out what happened with her. If she really was having dinner with that person from the Zhan family, then the Shen family will be saved," Shen Lianchu said hurriedly.

At this moment, although she said these words, her hatred was boundless.

How could she let Shi Yanxia have such a good opportunity? She absolutely would not allow Shi Yanxia to succeed in this marriage of convenience.

"Okay." Upon hearing her words, Shen Zhinan quickly started the car and turned around to chase after Shi Yanxia in the direction she had left.

Just as he was about to give chase, he saw the Porsche make a quick U-turn and crash straight into his car.

"Brother, be careful." Shen Lianchu saw the Porsche rushing towards her, and she stared intently at the words "Zhan A8," her heart pounding wildly.

Before she could react, there was a loud bang, the car was hit and wobbled a few times, then the Porsche pushed it repeatedly towards a nearby utility pole.

"No, no!" Shen Lianchu cried out in a low voice.

But then a loud bang was heard as Shen Zhinan's car crashed into a telephone pole.

The passenger-side door was dented, and it landed right on Shen Lianchu's arm. She was quite frightened. She saw the Porsche reverse, turn around, and drive away arrogantly.

Shen Zhinan was also quite frightened. He turned his head in disbelief and saw the car window slowly rolling down.
