Chapter 235: Chapter 235 Owes Him Another Favor, Third Update

At this very moment, Zhao Xinlian truly wanted to rush forward more than anyone else, grab Chen Wei by his collar with both hands, and loudly demand an answer, "How long are you going to deceive me before it’s over? How many things are you still keeping from me?"

Every time, Zhao Xinlian felt that this was everything, but the very next second she thought so, Chen Wei would immediately act to shatter her belief.

Zhao Xinlian didn’t understand why Chen Wei would do such a thing. Could it be that he really wanted to see her filled with regret?

Do I regret it?

She placed her hand over her chest, feeling unexpectedly calmer than she had imagined.

What does regret feel like? She didn’t know, feeling it was no different from the usual.

Zhao Xinlian had never experienced regret because she knew that for some things, regret was futile; better to focus on the present with that time and energy.

Yet, Zhao Xinlian was very thankful for Chen Wei’s arrival, who had timely prevented Cai Lincheng’s nefarious deeds on her behalf.

Cai Lincheng would presumably not dare to harbor any ill intentions towards her or the company once he woke up and learned about today’s events.

In his eyes, he should surely assume there was still a relationship between her and Chen Wei.

Even if Cai Lincheng still entertained those thoughts, Cai Yuancheng, the father who revered Chen Wei as a god, would not allow him to continue his reckless behavior.

For this, Zhao Xinlian was truly grateful to Chen Wei, who had invisibly solved a big problem for her.

Having delivered the birthday gift, Zhao Xinlian felt there was no need to stay in this place any longer; she turned around and completely disappeared into the crowd...

"Master Chen, President Su, just now my apprentice and I were blind fools, unable to recognize true greatness. Please be magnanimous, and do not stoop to the level of trash like us."

On Chen Wei’s side, he was watching as Zhang Tianyi and Ding Yifan, nearly bending at a ninety-degree angle, came to him to apologize.

Altogether devoid of their previous arrogance, not to mention Chen Wei’s expertise in jade, they wouldn’t dare offend either Su Yumei or the Cai Family.

Ding Yifan was silent, but his legs trembled severely with fear, and if not for Zhang Tianyi’s support, he might have collapsed on the spot at any moment.

Ding Yifan knew better than anyone that with Chen Wei’s and Su Yumei’s influence, not only could they cost him his livelihood in River City, but they could also make him disappear from this world without a trace.

This thought intensified his fear.

Ding Yifan simply cast aside any semblance of face or dignity, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed, "I’m sorry! I truly know my mistake, I promise there won’t be a next time."

"Get lost, get lost, don’t disturb me and my senior sister’s mood," Chen Wei waved his hand dismissively.

He wasn’t about to waste more energy dealing with such minor characters.

"Yes, thank you, Master Chen, thank you, President Su." The two men, as if pardoned, quickly scurried away, slipping away as fast as they could.

"See, senior sister, didn’t I tell you? We don’t need to do much; they will kneel and apologize on their own," Chen Wei turned to look at Su Yumei and said with a smile.

"You, you’re really something," Su Yumei stretched out her hand and gave Chen Wei a gentle push on the forehead, teasing him, "It’s a good thing you weren’t born in the Three Kingdoms Era, otherwise the saying ’Born Yu, why need Liang?’ might have to be changed."

"Changed? Change to what?" Chen Wei asked.

"Born Yu, why need Liang, and why have you, Chen Wei?" Su Yumei rolled her eyes at him, knowing full well that Chen Wei was feigning ignorance.

"Maybe I was Zhuge Liang in my last life?" Chen Wei responded to Su Yumei’s joke.

"Stop right there!" Su Yumei knew if they continued, the conversation could drift off to an absurd extent.

Afterward, Chen Wei and Su Yumei continued to stay at the Cai Family’s residence to attend the banquet, which, in addition to various delicacies and regional cuisine, featured numerous entertaining programs.

Zhao Xinlian returned home soon after leaving the Cai’s place.

She had to inform her family about the events at the Cai’s residence to prevent them from calling during an important meeting at the company and asking whether something had happened between her and Cai Lincheng.

On the way, Zhao Xinlian received notification that the Cai Family had decided to give up on acquiring her company, and the heavy stone hanging in her heart finally fell.

"Wait a minute! By this logic, doesn’t that mean I owe him a favor?" Zhao Xinlian raised her hand to her forehead, her delicate brows tightly knit, feeling nothing but a headache.

Owing anyone a favor was tolerable, but Zhao Xinlian didn’t want to owe Chen Wei in particular.

She always felt that if things continued like this, there would never be an end between her and him.

"Forget it." Letting go of deeper thoughts, Zhao Xinlian used her key to unlock the door and entered her house.

"Xinlian is back!" Hearing the sound, Zhao Chungang immediately got up from the sofa, anxiously wanting to know the outcome, "How did things go with the Cai Family?"

"The Cai Family has already given up on acquiring my company," Zhao Xinlian replied.

"Does that mean you’ve agreed to be with Young Master Cai?" Zhao Chungang’s eyes brightened.

If Zhao Xinlian really could marry into the Cai Family, then from here on out, he and Cai Yuancheng would be in-laws, and his position and influence within the Zhao Family would definitely skyrocket!

"No," Zhao Xinlian put down her water glass.

"No! If you’re not with Young Master Cai, why would he give up on acquiring your company?" Zhao Chungang couldn’t fathom this.

"He probably figured it out, I guess," Zhao Xinlian said, not mentioning anything about Chen Wei.

As a daughter, she knew her father’s temper and character quite well; even if she recounted all the events that transpired at the Cai’s residence in detail, he definitely would not believe her.

Unless he saw it with his own eyes.

Rather than looking for trouble, Zhao Xinlian preferred to say nothing.

"Figured it out..."

To Zhao Chungang, this was most likely a tactic by Cai Lincheng to win over Zhao Xinlian’s heart, first driving her to despair and then offering hope. By repeating this several times, capturing Zhao Xinlian’s heart would certainly be effortless.

It seems that Young Master Cai was quite the veteran of the love game.

Thinking this, Zhao Chungang decided not to meddle further in the matter between Zhao Xinlian and Cai Lincheng, letting things develop on their own.

Youth affairs should be handled by the young themselves. As an elder, intervening too much would only lead to annoyance.

From the bottom of his heart, Zhao Chungang hoped that Cai Lincheng’s advances would become more intense, quickly winning over Zhao Xinlian, so that he and Cai Yuancheng could become in-laws.

Why not do something that would kill two birds with one stone?

"..." Zhao Xinlian could tell Zhao Chungang was harboring some unsavory thoughts, but she did not say much.

All she wanted now was to have a good rest, to soothe the shock and astonishment from the day’s events, which were brief in time yet deeply impactful.

Lying in bed and glancing at the photo frame on the nightstand, Zhao Xinlian’s lips parted slightly, and she whispered softly, "Chen Wei, just how many unknown facets do you still hide?"
