Chapter 703: Was He Forcing You

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

However, when she thought about the possibility that Zhan Haoze was telling the truth, her heart started pounding.

Su Qingsang was married and now had a child. Even though she used to have an aloof personality… She had changed a lot over time.

She saw the seriousness in Zhan Haoze’s eyes and stood up. “I’m sorry, Mr. Zhan. I have a few things to say to Wanwan.”

“Mrs. Huo, if you have something to say, you can say it directly. Wanwan is thin-skinned, I’m afraid she’ll be shy.”

Su Qingsang almost choked on her own saliva. Shi Mengwan is thin-skinned?

When the two of them were together in the past, which one of them would say perverted things out of the blue? Now, Zhan Haoze told her that Shi Mengwan was thin-skinned?

The corners of her mouth twitched as she glanced at Shi Mengwan. Shi Mengwan was a little embarrassed. She glared at Zhan Haoze.

“Qingsang, I’ll tell you later.”

“Wait a minute.” Su Qingsang pulled her body to her side and whispered into her ear, “What’s going on with you guys?”

“Don’t ask.” Shi Mengwan was embarrassed and said, “I’ll tell you in detail later.”

“Sure.” Today was a big day for the twins, so it wasn’t convenient for her to pester Shi Mengwan. However, she said, “If he forced you, you can tell me. I’ll let Huo Jinyao deal with him.”

Su Qingsang said this in a low voice, but Zhan Haoze heard her clearly.

“Qingsang.” Shi Mengwan’s expression was a little strange. Su Qingsang patted her hand and stood up like Shi Mengwan’s family member while looking at Zhan Haoze.

“President Zhan seems to have a fiancée?”

“Yes.” Although Zhan Haoze and Chen Feifei had never been officially engaged, everyone in Lin City knew. “We have already broken off the engagement.”

“Really?” Su Qingsang raised her eyebrows. “Why haven’t I heard about it?”

How could something as sensational as the annulment of the engagement be brushed over so easily?

“Both parties have made a private agreement, but they haven’t announced it yet.”

“If they haven’t announced it, it means that President Zhan still has a fiancée.” Su Qingsang didn’t speak very politely. “Since that’s the case, how can you claim that you’re Wanwan’s boyfriend? What are you doing to Wanwan?”

“Qingsang.” Shi Mengwan didn’t want Su Qingsang and Zhan Haoze to have a conflict now. “Stop talking.”

“How can I not talk? There are some things that need to be clarified.” Su Qingsang was extremely protective. “How can you believe him just because he put in a few good words?”

“Mrs. Huo, my engagement with Chen Feifei has long been canceled. This matter will be made public after I ask her. As for me and Wanwan, my feelings for Wanwan are naturally serious. Don’t worry, I won’t mistreat her.”

“Anyone can put in a good word. There are only a few who can do it.”

Su Qingsang really wasn’t deliberately targeting Zhan Haoze, but this man had a bad record. If he wasn’t with Shi Mengwan, no matter how many women he was involved with, it had nothing to do with her.

However, her friendship with Shi Mengwan made things different, so she naturally couldn’t stand to see her good friend being bullied.

“I don’t know how to put in a good word, but I think I can prove it with my actions.”

Zhan Haoze’s hand was still holding Shi Mengwan’s hand. Shi Mengwan turned to look at him because of his words. His overly sincere gaze made her feel moved for a moment.

Su Qingsang wanted to say something, but someone else just had to come.

The Huo family had many relatives, and they had many friends in the business world. As Huo Jinyao’s wife, there were naturally many people who came to get close to her.

Su Qingsang didn’t have the time to pay attention to Shi Mengwan, so she gave her a look, indicating for her to talk to her later.

However, a little later, Shi Mengwan was taken away by Zhan Haoze.

Zhan Haoze didn’t like this kind of occasion. After bringing Shi Mengwan to the public, he stayed for a while, then left with her.

The hotel that Zhan Haoze booked was in the presidential suite upstairs from the banquet. He brought Shi Mengwan directly upstairs.

Shi Mengwan actually hadn’t recovered from Zhan Haoze’s action of revealing her identity just now. It wasn’t until she was brought upstairs that Zhan Haoze kissed her lips.

When he kissed her, he didn’t forget to take off her red coat, and the sleeveless dress underneath was revealed.

He held her waist and pulled her into his embrace. He had wanted to do this when they were in the men’s washroom just now.

Shi Mengwan gradually came back to her senses as he kissed her.

Just as he was about to continue, she grabbed his hand. Zhan Haoze stopped moving and pressed his forehead against hers.

“Wanwan…”

His cold breath brushed past her face and she almost fell into his bewitching array.

She blinked and pressed her hands against his chest to calm herself down.

“Zhan Haoze, you said that you broke off the engagement with Chen Feifei?”

“Yes.”

“But you didn’t make it public?”

“Yes.”

“So, Chen Feifei also tacitly agreed to this statement?”

What did he mean?

“What I mean is that you unilaterally want to break off the engagement with her, and does she also agree?”

“Of course, she also agreed.”

He said it seriously, but Shi Mengwan didn’t quite believe him. This matter had always been a thorn in her heart. She couldn’t trust him so easily.

Zhan Haoze saw that she didn’t speak, so he lowered his head and wanted to kiss her again.

Shi Mengwan didn’t give him a chance. She stubbornly pressed her hand against his chest. “If that’s the case, then we’ll wait for the news of the annulment before we get together.”

Zhan Haoze looked at the determination on her face and felt a headache. “You don’t believe me?”

“I can’t find a reason to believe you.”

Shi Mengwan bit her lip and looked at Zhan Haoze. Her eyes were clear, but there was a hint of sadness in them. “Zhan Haoze, I’ve believed you, time and time again. I don’t want to believe you now.”

Zhan Haoze looked at the anger on her face. “So what do you mean now?”

“Nothing.” Shi Mengwan waved his hand away. “When can you get Chen Feifei to come out publicly and admit to breaking off the engagement? Why would I consider getting back together with you?”

She used the word ‘consider’. Even if Zhan Haoze had revealed his identity now, after calming down, she had to think about more aspects.

Where was this? This was Rong City. It would take a few hours to even get to Qing City, not to mention it was thousands of miles away from Lin City.

Zhan Haoze had revealed their relationship in Rong City. On the surface, it looked like he was finally willing to give her an open and aboveboard identity. But what was the truth?

After returning to Lin City, he could still continue to be Chen Feifei’s fiancé. And as long as the engagement wasn’t broken off, she would still be a shameful mistress that couldn’t be seen in the light.

She was calm enough now, and also rational enough. She didn’t want to believe Zhan Haoze’s words anymore.

Even if Zhan Haoze, who had brought her to the public in that moment, had moved her heart so much that she wished she could throw away everything and just follow him.

But that was all. She wouldn’t believe him anymore.

Her heart was already cold.

Her expression was resolute. In that instant, Zhan Haoze understood that what she said was true.

“Wanwan –”

“It’s getting late. I’ll go downstairs first.” Shi Mengwan pulled away from his embrace and lowered her head to pick up the small coat on the ground. “…”

“Wanwan, don’t go.” He went to pull her hand. It had been a while since they last saw each other, so he didn’t believe that she didn’t miss him.

“Zhan Haoze.” Shi Mengwan gently pulled his hand away. “You know what I want. If you can’t give it to me, don’t come looking for me again.”

After saying that, Shi Mengwan left without looking back.

… … ..

Chen Feifei looked at Zhan Haoze in front of her. After not seeing him for a few months, he seemed to be different again.

However, she was really not in the mood to care about Zhan Haoze now.

“Brother Hao, you came back at the right time. I’m in trouble.”

“What?” Zhan Haoze was about to say that the Chen Corporation had been on the right track recently, and wanted to ask Chen Feifei to publicly cancel the engagement with him.

However, her words made him pause for a moment. No matter what the reason was, when Chen Feifei was in trouble, he would help her.

“Chen Jie’s mother is here.”

Zhan Haoze froze for a few seconds before he remembered who Chen Jie was. That was Chen Yongchang’s illegitimate child outside. He was now resting in a small town in Canada with Chen Yongchang.

“His mother?”

After Zhan Haoze found out about Chen Jie, he specially looked up his mother’s information. According to the information, after Chen Jie was born, she took care of him for a period of time. Later, for some unknown reason, she left on her own.

As for where she went, the information didn’t specify. At that time, Zhan Haoze didn’t care about that. Therefore, he didn’t continue to investigate.

“Is there a problem?”

“The woman surnamed Liang is Chen Jie’s mother. I don’t know where from my father she got a will saying that the Chen family is Chen Jie’s.”

Chen Feifei said that, but in fact, she was very certain that the will was real.

Chen Yongchang really wrote such a will, and he really intended to give the Chen Corporation to Chen Jie.

When Chen Feifei thought of this, she felt upset.

“Will?” Zhan Haoze was stunned. He didn’t expect Chen Yongchang to have such a trick. “All of it?”

“Yes. All of it. All of the shares of the Chen Corporation will belong to Chen Jie.” Chen Feifei said this and sneered. “And I can get all of the real estate and funds under his name.”

It looked like a lot, but in reality? Compared to the Chen Corporation, it was nothing.

She really didn’t expect that her good father would be so biased. The father-daughter relationship of more than twenty years seemed to be fake.

“You have tested it? Is it real?”

Chen Feifei didn’t answer, so it was a definite answer. She looked at Zhan Haoze with a flash of viciousness in her eyes. “Brother Hao, you know, there’s no way I would let the Chen Corporation fall into that person’s hands.”

Zhan Haoze’s hand instinctively knocked on the table, and he suddenly raised his head.

“Don’t worry. The Chen Corporation is still yours. It won’t be anyone else’s.”

“Brother Hao, do you have an idea?”

“Of course.” Zhan Haoze expressed his opinion. “Let’s not talk about how uncle is still alive. The will only takes effect after he dies. Even if this will really exists, it doesn’t matter. Just ask your father to write a new one.”

“Will my father agree?” Chen Feifei sneered. “He gave the company to Chen Jie. Will he still be willing to write another one?”

No wonder he went to Canada even though he was unwilling at the beginning. He was waiting for her here.

“He wants to give the company to Chen Jie, but Chen Jie has to have the life to spend it, right?” Zhan Haoze looked at Chen Feifei. “I’ll ask my men to take Chen Jie away and hide him for a few days. If your father really cares about him that much, he would naturally agree to write a new copy. At that time, we can go change it, and everything will be fine.”

“What if my father writes another will?”The legal effect of a will was based on the person’s last will before his death. Chen Yongchang could write another will. If Chen Jie was safe, he could write another one.

Zhan Haoze looked at Chen Feifei and thought of Zhan Kun. “It’s not difficult. Let the Doctor write a certificate to prove that he is mentally ill. Then, no matter how many wills he writes later, it will be invalid. Moreover, I don’t plan to let him write another will.”

“Then, brother Hao, you…”

“I’ll let him write a transfer of shares directly.” Zhan Haoze sneered. “Now, the Chen Corporation is still your father’s. Ask him to transfer all the property under his name to you. When the time comes, the property will already be in your name. What’s the use of his will?”

This move was extremely ruthless. Chen Feifei didn’t expect it either. She looked at Zhan Haoze and suddenly smiled.

“Good idea. If possible, send the woman surnamed Liang to accompany my father. As for Chen Jie, let them separate for a period of time first.”

This meant that he was going to take Chen Jie as a hostage.

Zhan Haoze nodded. “Okay, I’ll get someone to arrange it.”

“Thank you, brother Hao.”

“No need to thank me. I came here to look for you.”

“What?”

“Release a statement and cancel the engagement with me.”

Chen Feifei froze for a moment. The three-month period had long passed. It was just that Zhan Haoze’s name was so useful that she forgot about it for a moment.

“Tsk. I thought you forgot about it.”

“How could I forget such an important matter?” In fact, he had really forgotten about it. He thought that it would be fine as long as they reached an agreement.

He just didn’t expect Shi Mengwan to care so much about this matter. He had no choice but to come over personally to resolve this matter.

“Brother Hao, do you not like me that much? You’re not even willing to give me a chance?” She was a little resentful. No matter what, she had grown up with him, yet their relationship was actually so distant. It really made her sad.

“Feifei…”

“Enough.” Chen Feifei shook her head. “I’m so good, so it’s not like no one wants me. But brother Hao, since the right to cancel the marriage is in my hands, you shouldn’t mind what excuse I use, right?”

“I don’t mind.”

This was what he promised Chen Feifei back then. However, if Zhan Haoze knew what Chen Feifei said later, and that he would be put in a difficult position, he probably wouldn’t think like that now.

… ..

Shi Mengwan didn’t expect to see Zhan Haoze so soon this time.

She thought that after she made that request last time, Zhan Haoze would take a long time to appear. After all, Chen Feifei seemed to like Zhan Haoze so much, so how could she easily agree to break off the engagement?

So, after she held the full-moon banquet with Su Qingsang’s fraternal twins, she played in Rong City for two days.

Under Su Qingsang’s persuasion, she promised that if Zhan Haoze couldn’t marry her, she wouldn’t be with Zhan Haoze.

It wasn’t that Su Qingsang didn’t trust Zhan Haoze, but she felt that her good friend was a woman who was blinded by love.

Otherwise, why would she stay single for a Dear Brother from more than ten years ago?

Shi Mengwan didn’t expect Zhan Haoze to arrive right after she entered and put down her luggage.

Zhan Haoze returned to Lin City earlier than Shi Mengwan. As soon as he returned, he immediately went to Chen Feifei to settle the marriage contract.

She didn’t expect Chen Feifei to encounter trouble. He used a day to arrange the arrangements and sent Chen Jie away. Then, he asked someone to send Chen Jie’s mother, who came to cause trouble for Chen Feifei, to Canada to accompany Chen Yongchang.

Now that the people who were watching Chen Yongchang had obtained the transfer letter, the next step was to take it to justice. Chen Feifei officially took control of the Chen Corporation.

After he was done with these matters, it seemed like a lot, but it only took him two days.

Once he was done, he asked Chen Feifei to make the news public. Chen Feifei said that the Chen Corporation had a press conference the next day. She would announce it at the press conference.

Zhan Haoze’s matter had been settled. He didn’t want to delay any longer. He came straight to Shi Mengwan.

When Shi Mengwan saw Zhan Haoze, her emotions were a little complicated.

“Tomorrow, Chen Feifei will hold a press conference and announce that she is breaking off the engagement with me.”

Before she planned to ask Zhan Haoze to leave, Zhan Haoze had said this sentence in advance.

Shi Mengwan was stunned. She blinked and looked at Zhan Haoze.

“What did you say?”

“I said, tomorrow morning at 9:30 am, Chen Feifei will hold a press conference and announce that she is breaking off the engagement with me.”

As he spoke, he took a step inside.

Shi Mengwan was shocked by his words. She subconsciously took a step back and let him in.

Zhan Haoze came in and held Shi Mengwan in his arms. He hugged her tightly and searching for her lips, he lowered his head.

This time, Shi Mengwan didn’t push him away, but let him kiss her. She blinked and looked at the enlarged face in front of her.

For a moment, she thought that she had heard wrongly, but she knew that Zhan Haoze wouldn’t joke about such a thing.

If it was true, wouldn’t that mean that she could be together with him openly in the future?

Thinking about it, Shi Mengwan’s eyes actually became a little sore and swollen.

Zhan Haoze kissed her very gently. From her lips, to her cheeks, to her earlobes. Eyelids..

He kissed her bit by bit, and then took off her clothes bit by bit.

Shi Mengwan didn’t push him away. She reached out and hooked her arm around his neck.

If she had been more honest with herself, she would have admitted that she missed him too. Very much.

Even if she pushed him away a hundred times, a thousand times. When he came close again, she would still think of being with him.

That was the contract they had made since they were young.

Tears welled up in the corners of her eyes as he kissed her. His kiss fell on her like a feather. She closed her eyes and trembled as he moved.

This night was exceptionally long, but also seemed to be exceptionally short.

Shi Mengwan was very tired, very tired. But even though she was so tired and had something on her mind, she still woke up early the next day.

Yesterday, she didn’t have much interaction with Zhan Haoze. However, after the s*x, Zhan Haoze still explained to her a little.

Chen Feifei had once done him a favor, and he wanted to repay her. So, he agreed to some conditions.

She wanted to ask what kind of favor, but Zhan Haoze didn’t continue.

“Since you have so much energy, why not do it again?”

The later memories made her blush. When she woke up, she immediately picked up her phone.

When it was half past nine, Chen held a press conference. Not only did Lin City television station come to interview, there was also a live broadcast on the internet.

Very soon, Shi Mengwan saw Chen Feifei who appeared at the press conference.
