When following Yang Rui away, Zheng Jun kept looking back at Shen Nanyi as if he wanted to engrave her appearance in his bones.
Fortunately, although Zheng Jun's gaze was intense, there was no hint of admiration in it. Otherwise, Ji Beichuan's jealousy would surely flare up.
Shen Nanyi only wanted to complete the task and didn't take Zheng Jun's talk of doing business seriously.
But soon, Zheng Jun brought her an unexpected surprise.
When she received Yang Rui's call, Shen Nanyi and Shen Yi were about to leave the hotel and go home.
"General Manager Shen, I finally understand why you organized this game. You're so farsighted! I'm truly in awe of you. From now on, I'll do whatever you say!" As soon as the call was connected, Yang Rui's voice came through, full of admiration for Shen Nanyi.
Holding the phone, Shen Nanyi was completely confused, having no idea what was going on.
"Previously, there was a project of the Shen Group that couldn't be carried out because a piece of land on the outskirts wasn't owned by the Shen Group. The seller had always refused to sell it. Unexpectedly, the seller is Zheng Jun. It's the land passed down from his ancestors, and he's always been reluctant to sell it.
But what you did today made him think you're a person with vision and foresight. So he's going to cooperate with our Shen Group on this project. If this project is successful, the 20 million you spent can easily earn back ten times as much. How on earth did you know that Zheng Jun is the person we've been looking for?" Yang Rui couldn't contain his excitement and rambled on. He was almost on the verge of kneeling down and kowtowing to Shen Nanyi.
From Yang Rui's account, Shen Nanyi finally understood what was going on.
It was really just a lucky coincidence this time. But hearing Yang Rui's excited tone on the other end, she didn't want to dampen his confidence. "Maybe I'm just lucky," she said.
God knows, Shen Nanyi was telling the truth and wasn't joking at all. But Yang Rui thought she was being modest.
At such a young age and in the face of such huge profits, being able to remain so calm, Yang Rui believed that under Shen Nanyi's leadership, the Shen Group would surely reach a new level.
Listening to Yang Rui's increasingly exaggerated praise on the phone, Shen Nanyi blushed for the first time in a while and quickly hung up the phone.
If she listened to Yang Rui any longer, she might even start to think she was really that amazing.
Ji Beichuan was standing closest to Shen Nanyi and heard most of what was said on the phone. With his intelligence, he quickly understood what was going on.
He had once wanted to get involved in the project in the north of the city, but he was also stuck because of Zheng Jun. He never thought his little girl would be so lucky.
It seemed that he had to work harder to make money. Otherwise, his speed of making money might not be able to keep up with his little girl's.
Ji Beichuan suddenly felt a deep sense of crisis.
The group of people left the hotel and planned to go back and rest.
Just as they stepped out of the hotel door, a person rushed over without any warning and threw herself directly at Ji Beichuan.
"Brother Beichuan, it's me! Don't you remember me at all?" Wu Fang had been waiting outside for who knows how long. Finally, when the security guard left, she quietly came back. The moment she saw Ji Beichuan appear, she rushed towards him at full speed.
Ji Beichuan's reaction today was completely different from what she had expected, which made Wu Fang a little flustered.
It was as if there was some irresistible force hindering things, and everything seemed to be going off-script.
Seeing someone coming, and a complete stranger at that, Ji Beichuan didn't even think twice and tried to push the person away. But unfortunately, Wu Fang was holding on too tightly, and Ji Beichuan failed to push her away after several attempts.
The bodyguards behind didn't care who the person was. Seeing that Ji Beichuan wanted to reject her, they quickly came over, controlled Wu Fang, and pinned her down to one side.
The hotel manager personally saw Ji Beichuan and the others out, thinking that everything was finally over. But unexpectedly, Wu Fang showed up again and even hugged Ji Beichuan. The manager immediately broke out in a cold sweat on his forehead.
Everyone knew Ji Beichuan's temper. Once, a first-line celebrity just wanted to go over and chat with Ji Beichuan to gain some popularity, but was directly pushed away by Ji Beichuan.
This was the well - known iceberg in the circle. If it got out that this woman used to be a part - time worker at the hotel, his position as the manager might really be in jeopardy.
Looking coldly at the controlled Wu Fang, Ji Beichuan's expression was extremely ugly.
Not to mention that he had a bit of a cleanliness fetish, but Shen Qingshan and the others were still there. If they had any misunderstandings, his journey to win back his wife would be much longer.
"Are you crazy?" In front of so many people, Ji Beichuan spoke, leaving no face for Wu Fang at all.
Shen Nanyi, who was on the side, almost burst out laughing when she heard these words. This man was still as venomous - tongued as ever.
Wu Fang looked at Ji Beichuan in disbelief, unable to believe that Ji Beichuan would say such things to her. Clearly, Ji Beichuan had some connection with her when they were kids, and she was the white moonlight in Ji Beichuan's heart. Why was it completely different now?
"Look at me carefully. Don't you really remember me? When you were a kid, you once went to Singapore and got lost in the forest. It was me who saved you!" Wu Fang simply couldn't believe that Ji Beichuan would say such things to her. Subconsciously, she thought she hadn't explained clearly and repeated the story again.
After saying that, Wu Fang quietly looked at Ji Beichuan. She was waiting, waiting for Ji Beichuan's gaze to soften when he looked at her.
In the plot, after she told this story, Ji Beichuan would grant her every wish.
The Shen family members stood on the side and had no intention of interfering at all. Instead, Shen Qingshan and the others were a bit gloating.
They trusted Ji Beichuan's character, but they couldn't let Ji Beichuan think that their daughter was really easy to chase.
To make Ji Beichuan think that they were angry, Shen Qingshan even put away his smile and put on a straight face to show that he was really angry.
Afraid of laughing out loud, Shen Qingshan pinched his own arm hard with one hand to make his expression look even more intimidating.
Shen Yi was standing behind Shen Qingshan and saw his whole action. Shen Yi looked extremely disgusted, as if the word "disgusted" was written all over his face.
Although he thought so in his heart, his actions were more honest than anyone else's. He imitated Shen Qingshan and pinched his own arm with one hand to make his expression look unfriendly.
