Book:Beloved by the Hardhearted Avenger Published:2024-5-31

“No need to worry about it. She won by relying on her strength. I will definitely work hard to win my first place with my strength. There’s no need for you to worry about it.” An Manrou smiled and rejected Cecan’s goodwill.
If she allowed someone to see what she was thinking, wouldn’t she have wasted her cultivation? An Manrou had a plan that worked quickly in her mind. She had to continue to be such a pure girl. She had to hold Cecan’s heart firmly in her hands and make him her own puppet.
When he saw such a sensible goddess, Sai Wan felt sweet in his heart. Such a smart and sensible girl was much more careful than his sister. He couldn’t help but praise, “Miss An is really a strong girl!”
“You flatter me. I’m just an ordinary person.”
No matter how much An Manrou thought about it, she still pretended to be calm and composed. She casually asked, “I’ll be attending a banquet in two days, and I’ll be a tycoon in the industry. I want to discuss a collaboration with him. I wonder if Mr. Sai Wan is willing to help me.”
“Of course, there’s no problem. I already know what kind of banquet you’re talking about. I’ll be there soon.”
It was just a small matter for Sai Wan. If An Manrou was willing, he could cooperate with her in the name of his company.
Seeing that the fish was hooked so quickly, An Manrou lost her mind to play and felt disappointed. However, she still had to pretend to be happy and say, “Thank you, Sai Wan. Can I call your brother?” I never had a brother, but I really wanted Mr. Sai Wan to be my brother.
“Okay, I’ll treat you as my sister in the future!” Sai Wan thought that this was a good opportunity for his relationship with his goddess, advance by leaps and bounds, so he quickly agreed. If this degree of solicitude was seen by Cecin, he would be so angry that he could vomit blood.
She was disappointed and pretended to be uncomfortable as she pushed off, “I might not be able to eat with my brother today. I really want to go home and rest.”
“Mmm!” Then I will send you home now, but you have to replenish some energy while resting at home, or your body will not be able to survive.
Cecan didn’t expect that all of his good intentions would be trampled on, yet he was still diligent and devoted.
Until he sent An Manrou away, he couldn’t recover from his excitement. In his heart, he thought of An Manrou’s request when she promised him to meet. His cheeks unconsciously reddened.
Poor Lone Wolf had worked so hard to cultivate his business talents, but he never imagined that a woman would scheme against him so badly.
After returning home, An Manrou sent the specific time and location of the banquet to Zhong Shaoting. If it was when Zhong Shaoting started to invade the country, he would participate in any banquet to promote his products, but later on, the company gradually became bigger and more things happened to him.
However, An Manrou saw this opportunity. The smaller the place was, the less rules there were, the better she could do it. This time, Zhong Shaoting and Ding Manman, who she had to fight, couldn’t make it.
While planning this, the personal secretary, Fang Zijin, was a little confused, “Miss, why do you want to fight with Zhong?” According to my observations, there is no good ending for him to deal with someone who does it.
“Those stupid people won’t end well. Don’t you believe in my strength?” An Manrou didn’t answer the secretary’s first question.
But after a long time, she felt that Fang Zijin’s curious gaze didn’t leave, so she forced herself to explain, “Actually, you don’t understand that Zhong Shaoting and I have known each other for a long time. I’ve liked him since a long time ago. At that time, his position wasn’t as high as mine, but until he had today’s results, he didn’t to put in one’s eyes me. You think his behavior is too much.”
Fang Zijin thought about it, thinking that it was just an ordinary secret love story, but this was not the reason why he deliberately tripped him because of love and hate.
“Then I’ll just tell you the truth. Actually, Zhong Shaoting and I are half a couple. At that time, his parents died and the family was in turmoil. I helped him calm down the storm. At that time, he treated me very well, but after I confessed to him that he wanted to be together, he was very cold and distant.”
Thinking back to the past, An Manrou felt a little sad and wanted to cry, but she was stubborn. She didn’t want to admit defeat and clenched her fists and angrily said, “When he doesn’t need me, he said he wants to return my money. Is what he owes me as simple as money? Is this Miss’s relationship so worthless?
Hearing An Manrou’s words, Fang Zijin, who had been following her, understood why An Manrou was so unhappy. If this kind of behavior could help her alleviate the anger in her heart, she was willing to take the risk, but she still had to remind her, “Miss is smart, but Zhong Shaoting is not a fool. We still have to consider the consequences in our work. You can just let go and don’t get angry.”
“I know, I’ll do as I said.” An Manrou didn’t expect that Fang Zijin, who usually kept quiet beside her, would say so much. She couldn’t help feeling a little annoyed.
Fang Zijin, who had left tactfully, immediately started to find someone to help An Manrou carry out the revenge plan. Everything was handled very carefully to prevent Zhong Shaoting from noticing anything.
In Zhong Shaoting’s mind, he and An Manrou were only friends. An Manrou helped him selflessly at the most difficult time, but how could he agree to the request that they were together?
He had tried his best to make up for this stubborn woman, but he never imagined that in the end, she would still bury a seed of hatred in her heart.
Now that Zhong Shaoting had Ding Manman beside him, An Manrou was even more impossible. He also wanted to use this opportunity to talk to his close friend of the past.
So no matter how busy Zhong Shaoting was, he still took the time to attend the party that night. Just as he was about to leave, he received a call from Ding Manman.
“Shaojing, are you going home tonight?”
Just from listening to Ding Manman’s voice, Zhong Shaoting could think of how happy and playful this girl was now. He couldn’t help but laugh, “I’ll go back later tonight. I have something important to deal with. Wait until I’m done and I’ll be with you.”
“So you’re not coming back…” Ding Manman sounded a little disappointed, but she soon regained her spirit. “Then try to come back sooner, I’ll wait for you!”
