Becoming The Bigshot's Only Love After Breaking Her Engagement-Chapter 451: Don’t Meddle in Other People’s Business
Xunyou looked at Ningwan with a "what do you plan to do now" expression.
Ningwan was extremely embarrassed.
Initially, it was her suggestion for Feng Jiuzun and Shangxue to use reverse psychology to make Xie Mingyu and Xunyou face their true feelings.
Unexpectedly, the two of them took the fake act seriously.
"Xunyou, don’t worry, I’ll call Feng Jiuzun."
Xunyou chuckled: "Why would I be worried? It’s got nothing to do with me. He can marry whoever he wants. Initially, this had nothing to do with me, and I didn’t want to meddle. But since he’s marrying Shangxue, I can’t just sit by. Shangxue is my sister, and if he doesn’t truly like her, it would ruin her whole life. The key issue is that because Shangxue wants to marry Feng Jiuzun, our young master has gone crazy, saying he wants to marry me and have a joint wedding with Shangxue."
Ningwan: "..."
Xie Mingyu really is crazy to say something so insane.
"Miss Ye, you started this, so you must find a way to solve it," Xunyou said.
Ningwan nodded: "Of course, I’ll solve it; give me some time."
She let Xunyou sit down first, then hurriedly went out to call Feng Jiuzun.
"Feng Jiuzun, what are you doing? Didn’t we agree it was all an act? And now you’re taking it seriously and really marrying Shangxue? And who was the one who said he’d never marry anyone but Xunyou in this lifetime? You’ve been searching for years, yet you lack persistence?"
As soon as the call connected, Ningwan furiously scolded Feng Jiuzun.
"Did Xunyou come to find you?" Feng Jiuzun dodged the question.
Ningwan said, "Yes, she came to me, said I caused this trouble, and I need to solve it. So I have to ask you, explain clearly, what’s going on?"
"It’s a long story, to put it briefly: I was forced into it," Feng Jiuzun said.
Ningwan: "..."
"What do you mean you were forced into it? Why don’t you just tell Xunyou that she’s the person you like? Wouldn’t that be simple?"
"If things were as simple as you say, that would be great. Forget it, I won’t say more; even if I did, you wouldn’t understand," Feng Jiuzun hung up the phone. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂
Ningwan was at a loss for words.
When she returned to the living room, Xunyou had already left.
However, there was a note left on the table, which read: We will handle this ourselves, you don’t need to worry about it.
Ningwan was speechless again.
They came to complain to her, and now they’re saying she doesn’t need to worry. Do they want her to involve or not?
Back home, Ningwan told Zhan Hanjue about it.
However, after listening, Zhan Hanjue remained silent and seemed somewhat absent-minded.
Ningwan extended her hand to check his pulse.
Only then did Zhan Hanjue seem to come back to his senses, smiling as he asked, "Why did you suddenly check my pulse?"
"I see you’re worried and having difficulty concentrating, so I checked to see if there’s any physical issue."
"Is there a problem?" Zhan Hanjue leaned in and asked.
Ningwan released his wrist: "Of course there’s no problem, so it’s not an external factor. It seems to be a psychological issue. Although I’m a traditional Chinese medicine doctor, I have some knowledge in treating psychological problems. I wonder if this patient can tell me what’s bothering them; maybe I can help solve it."
"Don’t worry, it will be resolved soon." Zhan Hanjue reached out to stroke Ningwan’s neck and pulled her closer for a kiss.
Ningwan saw that he didn’t want to tell her and didn’t press further.
After all, everyone has a bit of their own privacy.
"Regarding Xie Mingyu’s matter, I will call Old Sir Xie. But I think you don’t need to worry too much. They are all adults and should know what choices to make," Zhan Hanjue comforted her again.
Ningwan nodded: "Xunyou said not to involve, so I won’t. Look at you, you’ve even got dark circles. Rest early."
Saying this, Ningwan forcefully made Zhan Hanjue lie down and held him, not allowing him to move.
Zhan Hanjue had no choice but to lie down and sleep with her.
The next day, Zhan Hanjue went to the company, and Ningwan went to the clinic early.
The fact that He Qingping was staying at their house had been more or less overlooked by the two of them.
After all, both are quite busy and don’t have much energy to worry about what He Qingping might be planning.
As long as she doesn’t cause trouble, it doesn’t matter to Ningwan how long she stays.
After a busy day at work, the family driver came to pick her up.
However, when Ningwan opened the car door, she saw that the driver had been replaced by Wu.
"Wu? Why are you here?" Ningwan asked in surprise.
Wu, equivalent to the Zhan Family’s head of security, typically doesn’t serve as a driver.
Unless it’s for urgent or dangerous matters.
"Madam, it’s the boss who asked me to pick you up. There’s a banquet tonight, and the boss hopes you’ll attend with him. I’ll take you to the styling studio for a makeover and change of clothes, then directly to the hotel," Wu replied.
"What kind of banquet requires my attendance?" Ningwan furrowed her brows.
Zhan Hanjue knew she usually disliked attending banquets, so he usually didn’t insist she go.
When he needed a companion, he’d often let the company’s secretary go instead.
Of course, he’d report this to her.
Because of this, Wu Taotao and the others often warned her to be cautious about Zhan Hanjue being charmed away by another woman.
"If I didn’t have confidence in him on this matter, we wouldn’t deserve to be a couple." Ningwan confidently replied.
Indeed, in such matters, she was confident in Zhan Hanjue and herself.
She knew very well what type of woman Zhan Hanjue liked.
He liked women like her, so what was there to worry about?
But this time, what kind of banquet required her presence?
Although she wasn’t fond of such things, since Zhan Hanjue wanted her there, she wouldn’t refuse.
Once at the studio, the stylist wanted to select a dress for her, but she declined.
She picked a bright red evening gown herself and paired it with nude high heels.
"The makeup for this dress should be bolder, don’t do it too lightly," Ningwan instructed.
The stylist nodded and smiled, "Madam Zhan’s features suit both heavy and light makeup, always beautiful no matter what."
"I know. I used to like light makeup, but I believe a bold look suits the current me better," Ningwan said with a smile.
Seeing her understanding, the stylist dared not take it lightly and seriously applied makeup and styled her.
After the makeup was done, Ningwan came out, and Wu was waiting outside.
Upon seeing her, Wu was left dumbfounded.
Although he always knew their madam was very beautiful.
But with this heavy makeup... it wasn’t just beauty; it was breathtaking.
"How is it, does it look okay?" Ningwan asked confidently.
Wu immediately blushed and lowered his head, "Of course, madam, please get in the car, I’ll take you there."
He didn’t dare to casually compliment how beautiful she was; if the boss found out, he’d surely be angry.
Moreover, he was too shy to say it.
Just a glance from their madam made his heart race and his cheeks flush.
