However, he had never tried before to use the entire Situ Family’s power to confront the Huanyu Group, to confront the Huaxia Country he was not familiar with.
He was born into schemes, grew up in calculation, and had a vision; the useless bunch of the Situ Family were indeed not his match. But Yu Jingxi wasn’t a fool—back then, when his father Situ Che made clandestine moves behind the scenes, he hadn’t managed to crush him, hadn’t managed to topple the Huanyu Group. Instead, it had grown and expanded even further. Over the years, it had developed deep roots. For him, who was just starting out, trying to contend with Yu Jingxi was simply facing unprecedented pressure!
Even his previous women, one by one, either longed for him for his money or drew close to him for the power of the Situ Family. It was clear to imagine that if he didn’t carry the surname "Situ," if he came from poverty, those women wouldn’t even deign to give him a glance!
But among these people, only Jian Anning—only she never schemed against him, never targeted him, and moreover, rejected his excessive advances! However, as long as he was kind to her, she would show a very grateful attitude. Even though she didn’t know his identity, she treated him with the same calm and tenderness, never looking down on him because of it!
This feeling was something he had never had before, and he never knew that there would be someone who could have such a big impact on him!
The separation of these last few days didn’t make him feel distant from her, but rather—it was like "absence makes the heart grow fonder"! Just thinking of her face made it seem like the biggest issues could be settled down. His thoughts could stabilize, and his emotions could find peace.
On the contrary, look at the "fiancée" beside him—Cheng Tingting—well, he admitted that this Moon-Cheng, in terms of appearance alone, was indeed somewhat more outstanding than Jian Anning. In the eyes of the average person, Jian Anning might still be considered a pretty girl next door, but compared with the dazzling beauty of Cheng Tingting, she indeed seems somewhat plain.
However, from the first day Cheng Tingting arrived, other than picking fights every day, it was daily shopping sprees. Ya Jiayi, a single woman, was driven to wit’s end by her antics. Later, after returning to Yancheng, Cheng Tingting would find excuses to visit Situ Xuan’s company, as if marking her territory as the "lady of the house"!
Facing such a "fiancée," Situ Xuan was truly fed up. What he hated the most were women who were self-righteous, presumptuous, and shallow. He originally thought that the Cheng Family had some substance, that their daughter wouldn’t be too bad, and with economic cooperation, a marriage alliance wouldn’t be a problem.
But upon seeing such a "fiancée," Situ Xuan was utterly sickened! If he had to choose, he would rather opt to settle down with Jian Anning!
After all, their Situ Family wasn’t desperately seeking cooperation with the Cheng Family.
Especially this afternoon, when Cheng Tingting came back from shopping and suddenly dashed into his company’s conference room. He was in the critical moment of competing with the Huanyu Group, only to find Cheng Tingting causing a scene there, even scolding him for not being "gentle and considerate, only knowing how to work, never accompanying her shopping." It was ridiculous!
Unable to contain his anger, he loudly ordered security to drag Cheng Tingting out. After work, as he sat in the car, he felt an unprecedented weariness. Without a second thought, he directly bought a plane ticket and flew over from Yancheng!
