Everywhere they went, everyone was talking about today’s news.
Compared to Ji Fengmian and Chen Defan staying in the same room and something might have happened, the news of Ji Qing’s miscarriage was more eye-catching.
“This can be considered the biggest news in recent years. The ex-boyfriend and girlfriend are staying in the same hotel, the ex-girlfriend is in a room with another man, the ex-boyfriend is with another woman…”
“The key is… I heard that the woman had a miscarriage because the man drank too much at night and didn’t pay attention when he did that. He used too much strength and caused the child to disappear…”
“Ah, no way. I heard that she found it in the bathroom. That woman must have slipped, right?”
“Who knows what the truth is? It doesn’t sound good to hear that she knocked the child down because she used too much force, right?”
“That’s true…”
Many people in the cafe were discussing this matter. Ji Fengmian ordered a cup of milk tea and listened to the gossip quietly.
She dropped the child because she used too much force?
Her lips curled into a cold smile. How ruthless. What a good trick.
She was indignant that Chu Boyang only cared about her, Ji Fengmian, for the rest of his life. Was he trying to get her attention?
This price was indeed quite high.
Perhaps her words in the corridor had really triggered her.
He must be anxious.
She held her chin and took a sip of coffee with a sarcastic smile on her face.
Now that she had lost to a woman like Ji Qing, she felt a little better.
At least she wasn’t as ruthless as her.
In order to stay by Chu Boyang’s side, she was willing to bear another man’s child.
In the end, she wanted to stay by Chu Boyang’s side and be heartless enough to abort her child.
Putting everything else aside, she couldn’t even do one of these.
It wasn’t until someone sat down opposite her that Ji Fengmian turned his head and sat up straight again.
“Sorry, I’m late.”
Ji Fengmian smiled and said, “It’s alright. With such news, I can understand CEO Shen’s helplessness.”
Shen Defan sighed. “It’s fine with me, but… it’s not good for your reputation.”
“Everyone in Ping Cheng City knows that your sudden news has a huge impact on the Shen family’s reputation. I can understand this. I wonder how Director Jiang plans to deal with this matter.”
At this point, Shen Defan’s face stiffened. He looked around and took two sips of coffee.
“Junior, you’re smart. My mother has indeed thought of a few ways to shut the media up. Naturally… the best solution is for the two of us to establish a relationship.”
Ji Fengmian smiled. “I can explain to the media that what happened last night was a misunderstanding.”
Shen Defan waved his hand. “It’s useless for you to explain. It can only be that we… what my mother means is… it’s best if we can get married…”
“…” Ji Fengmian took a sip of milk tea and fell silent.
Shen Defan hurriedly said, “This is indeed a very important matter to you. You can think about it carefully…”
“You want to marry me?”
Ji Fengmian suddenly asked.
Shen Defan stared at her beautiful face for a long time. “Personally… you’re quite pretty. You’re enough to be the daughter-in-law of the Shen family…”
Ji Fengmian nodded. “It’s indeed a good thing to be able to marry into the Shen family of Ping Cheng City, but according to what I know, the Shen family’s current situation isn’t very good…”
Shen Defan’s expression darkened.
Ji Fengmian continued, “Actually, I’m very optimistic about the future development of the domestic entertainment industry… It’s not impossible for me to marry you, but your Shen family has to show some gratitude before it can be justified…”
“The entertainment industry… Don’t tell me you want Lan Yun Entertainment…”
“How would I dare to have such a big appetite? The main thing is to see your sincerity. If I really marry into the Shen family, won’t I still belong to the Shen family? I’m just trying to gain some confidence. Besides, with Lan Yun Entertainment’s current situation… the words of shares are just nice to hear…”
Seeing Shen Defan’s troubled expression, Ji Fengmian said, “Director Jiang can’t do anything to Lan Yun Entertainment now. Instead of holding it in his hand and waiting for it to cool down, why don’t you let go a little? Perhaps I can save it?”
“You?” Shen Defan naturally didn’t believe her.
His mother had been helpless in managing the company for so many years. She was a university student who had just graduated yesterday. Who gave her the courage to say such things?
What shameless boasting.
Ji Fengmian curled his lips slightly and held his chin. “CEO Shen, your mother is old. The times are different now and will be different in the future. You have to look far ahead. What do you think?”
Shen Defan was silent.
Thinking about it carefully, the reason why Lan Yun Entertainment didn’t improve had a lot to do with her mother’s self-restraint.
After pondering for a long time, he looked at Ji Fengmian and said, “You’re using your marriage to exchange for the company’s shares. It’s the first time I’ve encountered such a situation.”
Ji Fengmian pushed the cold milk tea away. “It’s just a misunderstanding. If I said that I like you and love you, would you believe me?”
Shen Defan shrugged and said, “You can choose not to marry me, but you’re a straightforward person. I can’t be bothered to think too much. I really like you, but with your personality…”
“Shen Defan, let me say this first. We don’t have any feelings for each other now, but we can slowly nurture each other. I only have one request for you. You can make mistakes, but if it’s an absolute mistake… I won’t forgive you even once.”
Shen Defan pursed his lips and his expression darkened. “Your personality is indeed too low!”
Ji Fengmian leaned back in his chair and looked at Shen Defan.
Although she was an idiot, she wasn’t a bad person.
“I can register my marriage anytime. As for the wedding… I don’t think we should hold it.”
Left and right was not the marriage she wanted.
“Are you that hasty?”
Ji Fengmian picked up his bag and stood up. “Why don’t you transfer the money to my card?”
Shen Defan was speechless.
Shen Defan roughly told Jiang Rongrong what Ji Fengmian had told him today.
Upon hearing that Ji Fengmian had designs on Lan Yun Entertainment, Jiang Rongrong’s impression of her instantly soured.
However, due to the circumstances, Shen Defan conveyed that Ji Fengmian seemed to have the intention to save Lan Yun Entertainment. At this juncture, although the credibility wasn’t high, they could only give it a try.
He had to marry her eventually.
Although Ji Fengmian didn’t look like much, she had a lot of things in her hands.
He was worth a lot.
If she didn’t have some tricks up her sleeve, she wouldn’t have taken a fancy to Lan Yun Entertainment’s shares.
The next day, the Shen family met Ji Fengmian.
After discussion, the two parties reached a consensus and decided on the date to register their marriage.
Two days later, Ji Fengmian and Chen Defan went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to register their marriage.
Because she wanted to use this opportunity to explain why the two of them stayed in the same hotel that night, Jiang Rongrong arranged for reporters to attend.
The news of Ji Fengmian and Chen Defan registering their marriage spread like wildfire.
It wasn’t until the news came out that Uncle Chu, Aunt Chu, and Chu Jing knew about this.
Uncle Chu slumped on the sofa. “What is she thinking? Why did she decide on her own marriage without saying anything?”
Chu Jing’s face darkened and his voice was cold. “If she doesn’t make the decision herself, will you agree to it?”
Everyone knew about Shen Defan’s reputation in Ping Cheng City. Uncle Chu would definitely not agree to Ji Fengmian’s involvement.
“Even if I told you, you wouldn’t dare to make the decision.”
Chu Jing’s gloomy words made Uncle Chu’s heart ache even more. “Why is she so muddle-headed? Why did she do such an unreasonable thing?”
Chu Jing remained silent. What was she thinking?
Did she want Chu Boyang to give up completely or to take revenge on him?
Or was it because of the Shen family?
But she was Ji Fengmian!
No matter what the reason was, it was impossible for her to make up her mind to marry Shen Defan.
However, the truth was right in front of her. That was why she had been lying and refusing to let go. She had been pretending to be carefree.
When Ji Fengmian returned, the atmosphere in the house was indescribably tense.
This was the first time she saw anger on Uncle Chu’s face.
None of them spoke, obviously waiting for her to explain.
“I won’t pack the things here. I’ll come back to stay. The Shen family will buy new clothes to wear these few days.”
“…”
“…”
“…”
“… Congratulations, I’ve finally completed my life’s work.”
Uncle Chu raised his head and glared at her. “Congratulations? Missy! Are you serious? You clearly said that nothing happened between the two of you that night. Why did you marry him? Who doesn’t know that Shen Defan is…”
“He’s an idiot.” Ji Fengmian interrupted him. “It’s just that he doesn’t have any business acumen. He’s good-looking and has a good family background. Although he has good food and fun, at least he’s clean when it comes to women. He’s soft-hearted and has a soft personality. I don’t think he’ll force me to do anything in the future. In that case, isn’t being an idiot an advantage?”
Uncle Chu was stunned by her words. “You… but do you like him?”
“Relationships can be nurtured. I don’t like him, and it’s impossible for me to like someone else. Since I’m going to get married sooner or later, why don’t I choose a man who I like in all aspects?”
Uncle Chu said, “You…”
“Uncle Chu, I told you not to worry. I won’t mess around. I’m not good at relationships, but I have full confidence in my career. Do you want me to be dominated by relationships for the rest of my life?”
Uncle Chu opened his mouth but didn’t know what to say.
The answer was obviously no.
But… wasn’t this marriage a little too rushed?
“Are you sure your choice this time isn’t dominated by your feelings?” Chu Jing suddenly asked.
The smile on Ji Fengmian’s face faded as he glanced at him coldly.
“Making trouble for me?”
