As for Su Li? Chen Xiang didn’t take it to heart at all.
Isn’t Su Li just a woman? Just a woman accompanying at the dinner table to drink and talk business.
Chen Xiang was in a panic; if Seventh Master Feng bought the company’s stock, even in alliance with the Chu Family, there’s no way he could get it back! The rıghtful source is novel•fire.net
Mr. Chen looked at Chen Xiang with a puzzled expression and said, "Who told you it’s Seventh Master Feng? How could the great young master of Yanjing take interest in our small company? It’s someone else. But I have not yet found out who Mr. Tian sold it to."
"No, it’s not Seventh Master Feng?" Chen Xiang froze, and a glimmer of hope sprang from his earlier despair.
If it’s not Seventh Master Feng, then marrying Chu Lianxin and joining forces with the Chu Family might actually help him regain the stock ownership.
Startled into a cold sweat, Chen Xiang sat back on the sofa, wiping his forehead with his sleeve unceremoniously.
"Su Li... how did she become ? She dared to deliberately scare me!" Chen Xiang cursed angrily.
Just now, hearing that Seventh Master Feng had bought the stocks, he was scared out of his wits, running home like a mad dog!
Chu Lianxin’s eyes darted, immediately chiming in from the side, "Exactly, Brother Xiang, you’ve known her for so many years! It proves you never really knew her heart!"
The more Chen Xiang thought about it, the more dissatisfied he became, unconsciously clenching his fist.
Previously, he thought Su Li was Mr. Tian’s mistress, and if he allied with Su Li, perhaps regaining stock ownership in the future would go more smoothly.
Since Mr. Tian has sold the stocks, there’s no need to try to ingratiate with Su Li.
Chen Xiang turned his head to look at Chu Lianxin, gently holding her hand and saying, "Lianxin, we’ll soon be starting military training, let’s have our engagement party before that."
Chu Lianxin smiled shyly, saying, "Brother Xiang is so considerate."
But thinking of Su Li, Chu Lianxin snorted softly.
Su Li deliberately deceived Brother Xiang earlier; perhaps she still has unresolved feelings for Chen Xiang.
She mustn’t let Su Li ruin the engagement party.
Chu Lianxin watched Mr. Chen preparing the invitations for the two of them, and with a flicker in her eyes, she said, "Uncle Chen, our engagement party must be strictly checked. Those without invitations cannot be let in."
Mr. Chen frowned slightly.
Chen Xiang looked at his father and quickly said, "Dad, they’re just invitations; you don’t need to personally write them."
Mr. Chen shook his head and said, "This invitation is for the new major shareholder of the company. Writing it personally shows our respect."
Although he hasn’t met him yet and doesn’t know his surname, fortunately, tomorrow the subordinate of that major shareholder will come for a handover, hopefully revealing some information.
Chen Xiang relaxed after finding out that the stocks were not in Feng Huaijin’s hands, and turned to take Chu Lianxin back to the Chu Family.
In the last two days, both the Chen and Chu families have been busy preparing for the engagement party, and upon entering, they saw them looking at various gift lists.
Chu Lianxin leaned forward and hugged her mother Zhou Rong’s arm, acting coquettishly, "Mom, can we not invite Su Li to my and Brother Xiang’s engagement party?"
Chu Hongyuan immediately said, "How can that be? Xiao Li is part of our Chu Family. How could we not invite Xiao Li to a major event of the Chu Family?"
Besides... ever since learning that the Chu Family’s rise was due to Su Li, the whole family has been thinking about how to bring Su Li back.
After a summer break, presumably Su Li’s temper should have subsided, right?
Chu Lianxin’s expression changed, suddenly covering her face and choking out, "But tonight, I saw her crying and confessing to Brother Xiang, hoping he wouldn’t have the engagement party. I’m afraid she’ll cause a disturbance at the party, damaging the reputation of both families."
