They were already married, but holding hands in the corridor like a puppy love couple in school was childish. They tried their best to hide it from everyone, and then there was a bit of intimate contact, so sweet that it was as if they had tasted honey.

Ji Yan could not help but smile and hold Shen Hanxing’s hand tightly. “You and I are married.” He wanted to let everyone know that she belonged to him.

Shen Hanxing and Ji Yan entered the banquet hall side by side. They met the gazes of others, but their hands never separated.

On the other side, Wei Xier looked at Zhuang Li, who was no longer oppressive and noble, and said with a complicated gaze, “Zhuang Li, shouldn’t you give me an explanation?” He said something about Shen Hanxing pestering him. If Shen Hanxing were interested in him, she wouldn’t be merciless to him. Moreover, Zhuang Li’s crazy act feared Wei Xier a little.

“Xier, listen to me…” Zhuang Li was nervous. Now that he had limited power in Zhuang Corporation and had Zhuang Yu pressuring him, it would be difficult for him to achieve anything if he did not have anyone who could help him. So, he could not lose Wei Xier, at least not now!

“You don’t know, Shen Hanxing is a lunatic. I don’t know why she would treat me like this…” Zhuang Li stammered as he made up an excuse. He lied that before Wei Xi’er’ came, Shen Hanxing was like a dog, wagging her tail and begging him. She was pestering him endlessly, wanting to be his secret lover. However, after seeing Wei Xi’er’, Shen Hanxing started to go insane again and beat him up.

After hearing this, Wei Xier lowered her head and rubbed her forehead. She did not say whether she believed it or not. “Zhuang Li, I think both of us need to calm down. I want to reconsider our relationship. You… Mm!” Zhuang Li’s passionate kiss blocked the rest of her words.

Zhuang Li had made up his mind to cling to Wei Xier. “Reconsider? What is there to reconsider? Didn’t’ Wei Xier say she loves me? Since she loves me, she should give everything to me and become my stepping stone on the road to success. Otherwise, the love she talked about is bullshit. Women are such hypocritical creatures!” Zhuang Li thought as he deepened the kiss. It was domineering and predatory. He slowly let go of Wei Xier only when her eyes were watery, and her cheeks were blushing.

“You’ve gone too far!” Wei Xier pushed Zhuang Li away. Her eyes filled with anger, and tears welled up in them as she yelled, “what do you think I am?”

“Xier, don’t leave me,” Zhuang Li took a step forward and hugged Wei Xier tightly. He buried his face in her shoulder, hiding the malicious and unwilling look on his face. His voice trembled as he said, “I don’t want to lose you. Don’t leave me, okay?”

“You…” Wei Xier had a detailed look in her eyes. If she didn’t like Zhuang Li, she wouldn’t approach him. Even if Zhuang Li’s attitude were cold, she wouldn’t get tired of it.

“I know, I’m not a good boyfriend. I don’t know how to treat you…” Zhuang Li grabbed Wei Xier’s hand and placed it on his chest. He said affectionately, “But this heart of mine, this heart of mine is beating because of you. Xier, can you feel it? I can’t live without you. Don’t say things like breaking up easily, okay?”

Zhuang Li, who had always been high and mighty like a God, looked at her as he begged. No woman could resist him. Wei Xier’s eyelashes fluttered, and her thought was a mess, “Please give me some time to think.”

“Xier, don’t you want to marry me? Since we dated, I have been looking forward to marrying you, having children, and spending the rest of my life with you,” Zhuang Li’s eyes showed impatience. However, he could only suppress his temper and coax her, “don’t leave me, Please…” His voice was low and hoarse, and his eyes were slightly red. He looked at Wei Xier humbly like a desperate person.

Wei Xier couldn’t’ bear seeing Zhuang Li like that. In the end, she did not leave him. She lifted her arms to hug Zhuang Li and said in a low voice, “Zhuang Li, don’t be like this. I won’t leave you. I’m not leaving you…”

“That’s great!” Zhuang Li sounded happy. He hugged Wei Xier tightly and pressed her against the wall. He lowered his head and kissed her red lips. The coldness in the depths of his eyes disappeared, and Wei Xier did not notice it.

Meanwhile, in the banquet hall of the engagement party, the host said with a face full of joy, “Next, let’s welcome the couple of the day on stage!”

Su Ling’s face blushed as she held Lu Shaoyang’s hand. It was rare for her to be nervous. “Brother Shaoyang, it’s our turn to go up the stage.”
