Becoming The Bigshot's Only Love After Breaking Her Engagement-Chapter 626: The Zhan Family’s Son Comes of Age

Chapter 626: Chapter 626: The Zhan Family’s Son Comes of Age

"Don’t run."

"Stop."

After work, Zhan Yunxiao arrived at the underground parking lot, planning to drive home himself.

Unexpectedly, a young girl suddenly ran over, followed by two men chasing her.

The girl saw Zhan Yunxiao and shouted for help, "Help, help."

Zhan Yunxiao frowned.

This is the underground parking of the research institute, located in the middle floor of a building with many offices. The security has always been good, so how could such a thing happen suddenly?

He was about to use his phone to call security.

However, the girl had already run up to him, grabbed his hand as he reached for his phone, and hid behind him.

The two men chasing her stopped when they saw Zhan Yunxiao, pointed at him, and yelled angrily, "Get lost if you know what’s good for you."

"What if I don’t?" Zhan Yunxiao asked coolly.

Zhan Yunxiao was exceptionally handsome, tall and upright, with a youthful, heroic face. Yet, his demeanor was quite mature and steady. These contrasting qualities somehow merged seamlessly, lending him an indescribable, commanding nobility.

His voice was clear and magnetic, immediately marking him as someone extraordinary.

The two men, perhaps intimidated by his presence, exchanged glances and astonishingly turned and fled.

"Now that they’ve gone, you can leave too," Zhan Yunxiao said coldly to the girl once the two men had left.

The girl came out from behind him and thanked him, "Thank you!"

After thanking, she looked up and smiled at him.

Her smile left Zhan Yunxiao momentarily dazed.

In that brief moment of distraction, he impulsively said to the girl, "Perhaps they’ll come back. Where are you heading? I’ll take you there."

"I’m going to Jiangzhou Hotel," the girl replied.

Jiangzhou Hotel is a hotel under the Zhan Group, and it’s the most famous five-star hotel in Jiangcheng.

However, the girl dressed simply, and didn’t seem like someone who could afford to stay at Jiangzhou Hotel.

Zhan Yunxiao didn’t ask further and let her into the car, driving her there.

Indeed, upon arriving at Jiangzhou Hotel, the girl refused to get out of the car.

"What’s wrong?" Zhan Yunxiao asked.

The girl looked up with a pitiful expression and pleaded, "Could you lend me some money to stay at the hotel? I don’t have any money."

Zhan Yunxiao: "..."

She came to such a hotel without money?

What was she thinking?

"I don’t have an ID either. Could you use your ID to help me book a room?" she asked meekly again.

Taking a deep breath, Zhan Yunxiao asked with a grim face, "Since you have nothing, why do you want to stay in such a hotel?"

The girl pouted and said, "Because I’m sick, I don’t have much time left, and I want to stay in a nicer hotel. I tried to steal something earlier and got chased instead. But you look wealthy; could you be kind and let me stay for one night?"

This lie was both clumsy and laughable.

Had it been anyone else, Zhan Yunxiao would have likely kicked them out.

However, facing this girl, he couldn’t bring himself to do it.

Her eyes and brows... made it difficult to be heartless. After a moment of silence, he nodded, opened the car door, and let the girl follow him out.

Overjoyed, the girl followed him into Jiangzhou Hotel.

"Mr. Zhan."

Seeing Zhan Yunxiao, the hotel front desk hurriedly greeted him respectfully.

"Open a presidential suite," Zhan Yunxiao coldly ordered the front desk.

The receptionist nodded and quickly booked a room under Zhan Yunxiao’s name.

Seeing the girl behind Zhan Yunxiao, the receptionist showed a surprised expression.

"Pretend you didn’t see anything, and don’t mention this to anyone," Zhan Yunxiao added coldly.

The front desk nodded fearfully, "Got it, Mr. Zhan, I haven’t seen anything."

"Come with me." Guiding the girl into the elevator, Zhan Yunxiao instructed.

The elevator stopped at the twentieth floor, and Zhan Yunxiao led the girl to the door of a presidential suite.

"Here’s the room key; you’ll stay here tonight," Zhan Yunxiao handed the key to the girl.

The girl accepted the key but blinked her innocent eyes at him, asking, "Aren’t you coming in?"

"I’m not going in; you’re on your own," Zhan Yunxiao turned to leave.

Unexpectedly, the girl suddenly grabbed his wrist.

"But I’m scared to stay alone here."

Zhan Yunxiao turned around, frowning as he looked at the girl.

In reality, he clearly understood that things had already progressed to an abnormal point. If he were rational, he should have immediately left, ignoring this inexplicable girl.

Yet, looking at her brows and eyes, he found it impossible to be heartless.

During his moment of hesitation, he suddenly felt a sharp pain on the back of his hand.

Soon, a wave of dizziness hit him.

Fortunately, his mother was Divine Doctor Bai Zhi. Although he didn’t study traditional Chinese medicine, he had learned quite a lot from observation.

"Did you dare drug me?" Zhan Yunxiao looked at the girl incredulously.

The girl smiled lightly at him and blinked her eyes.

Soon, Zhan Yunxiao fainted, collapsing onto the girl.

When he woke up again, Zhan Yunxiao was in bed, precisely the presidential suite he had booked.

However, all his clothes were gone except for a pair of shorts.

Thankfully, aside from his clothes being removed, nothing else had happened.

Still, even this was enough to infuriate him, and he punched the bed hard.

He was Zhan Yunxiao; despite being only twenty years old, he had been managing the Zhan Family Group for two years.

Two years ago, at eighteen, he had completed his university course early and had already studied for one year towards his master’s degree. Just another year until he graduated with his master’s.

He intended to pursue a combined master’s and doctorate program, aiming to finish his Ph.D. before turning twenty-two, then establish his own research institute to focus on scientific research.

He studied biological sciences, aspiring to be a leader in the field.

Unexpectedly, Zhan Hanjue schemed against him at eighteen, forcing him to give up his studies and return home to inherit the family business.

This incident sparked an intense dispute between Ye Ningwan and Zhan Hanjue.

To prevent his parents from quarreling, Zhan Yunxiao volunteered to admit that he also wanted to inherit the family wealth and promised not to abandon his interests, founding a research institute and serving as its director.

In essence, he balanced both career and passion, impressively becoming a prodigy in Jiangcheng’s business and academic circles, following in his father’s footsteps as a young genius.

Yet now, this genius adolescent had been plotted against.

Stripped of his clothes.

More terrifyingly, he still didn’t know why the girl did this.

Was her sole purpose to strip him?

No, it couldn’t be that simple. If it were mere stripping, she wouldn’t go to such lengths.

Indeed, a while later, his phone suddenly rang.

Finding the phone, he saw it was Yan Yu calling.

Yan Yu was his assistant, having been with him for two years, essentially his confidant.

"Mr. Zhan, there’s trouble. Check Weibo immediately, you’re trending!"
