Mistaking My Sister-In-Law for My Wife After Getting Drunk!-Chapter 566 - : A Unique Focus
Chapter 566: Chapter 566: A Unique Focus
“Uncle Shen, Yu Yan, you’ve arrived,” Li Guangming greeted them.
“Mr. Li,” Shen Wanpeng gave a slight nod, merely a token gesture of acknowledgment, devoid of his previous warmth toward Li Guangming.
He thought of the video he had just watched and still felt a chill.
Having decided not to marry his daughter to Li Guangming, naturally, he no longer needed to treat him with the enthusiasm of the past.
Basic courtesy would suffice.
This took Li Guangming by surprise.
Just the second day after he returned, he went to Jiangcheng to meet Shen Wanpeng and his daughter.
Back then, Shen Wanpeng was very enthusiastic, even eagerly trying to match him with Shen Yuyan.
How had Shen Wanpeng’s attitude changed so quickly in just a few days?
Li Guangming couldn’t understand why, so he stopped thinking about it and turned his gaze to Shen Yuyan, “Yu Yan, I’ll give you a gift today, and I hope you’ll like it when the time comes.”
Shen Yuyan responded coolly, “Mr. Li, I’m not familiar with you, please call me by my full name. Besides, I don’t need any gift from you. Better save it for someone else.”
Since her father had already made up his mind for her to reject Li Guangming, she decided to be blunt about it, not to drag it out. After all, she didn’t like Li Guangming either.

Uh…
Li Guangming’s expression stiffened.
Although Shen Yuyan was not enthusiastic during their last meeting, she was not as cold as she was now.
As for addressing her, she didn’t show any aversion before.
Why was she so blunt now, insisting on being called by her full name?
Li Guangming was puzzled, “Yu Yan, I don’t quite understand what you mean. Haven’t we been talking well these past few days?”
Shen Yuyan curled her lips in disdain, “Which eye of yours saw us talking well? I was just putting up with you. Can’t you tell?”
As the heir to the Li family, being rejected and put off so bluntly by a woman was a blow to Li Guangming’s pride, and the smile on his face slowly faded.
He turned his attention to Shen Wanpeng, “Uncle Shen, I want to know what’s going on. Didn’t you and my father agree on my and Yu Yan’s matter?”
Shen Yuyan could be willful, but Shen Wanpeng, as an established businessman, would definitely not be capricious.
It could be said that for Shen Yuyan to marry into his family was an elevation of her status.
There was nothing wrong with his own conduct, after all.
Shen Wanpeng sighed, “Mr. Li, I’m sorry. I was hoping you and Yu Yan could end up together, but Yu Yan said she doesn’t want to accept such an arrangement. She’s stubborn and I’m powerless to change that, so I can only apologize. As for your father, I will personally visit him to apologize another day!”
He couldn’t afford to lose face for Li Guangming as Shen Yuyan did, without restraint.
If Shen Yuyan spoke like that, it could be seen as a young girl throwing a tantrum.
But if he did the same, it would amount to slapping Li Guangming’s face, and slapping the face of the Li family, resulting in completely severing ties.
That was not the behavior of a mature businessman.
Li Guangming’s expression grew dark, but he soon recovered his composure, “Uncle Shen, I believe I can win Yu Yan over. I hope you will give me the opportunity.”
Before Shen Wanpeng could reply, Shen Yuyan said, “Whether or not you get the opportunity is not for my father to decide, but for me. We’re not possible. Let’s not waste each other’s time anymore.”
Li Guangming showed a strained smile, “Yu Yan, I want to know why. Am I not good enough? As the heir of the Li family, I also like you. Marrying me, I will certainly make you happy.”
Shen Yuyan said, “You are good, but I feel we’re not suitable, so let’s not waste our time anymore.”
Li Guangming, unwilling to give up, took a deep breath, “Yu Yan, I’ll still give you a gift today, that won’t change. As for whether we’re suitable, we can talk about that later.”
Having spoken, he didn’t wait for Shen Yuyan to refuse but turned to Wang Xiaocong instead, “Wang Dashao, long time no see.”
The two had met a few years ago at a wine party in Jingcheng, and hadn’t seen each other since then.
Wang Xiaocong smiled politely, “Li Shao, long time no see.”
Li Guangming glanced at the female companion beside Wang Xiaocong, “Wang Dashao’s taste in girlfriends remains as consistent as ever.”
It was common knowledge that Wang Xiaocong liked internet-famous girlfriends.
Wang Xiaocong chuckled, “Can’t help it, I’m a loyal guy.”
Li Guangming laughed, “Wang Dashao’s loyalty certainly is unique.”
Wang Xiaocong’s face revealed a strange smile, “As unique as it might be, it’s nothing compared to your unusual hobbies.”
What he was referring to were, of course, the things Li Guangming had done in the video.
Such matters couldn’t be openly discussed, but it was fine to make insinuations.
Li Guangming, unaware that Wang Xiaocong had seen that video, couldn’t grasp the meaning behind Wang Xiaocong’s words and didn’t understand why Wang Xiaocong was laughing. He just gave a smile and didn’t respond but instead turned his attention to Xu Yang, “If I’m not mistaken, you must be Xu Yang, right?”
Xu Yang nodded, “That’s me.”
Li Guangming asked, “Have you given any thought to the proposal I made earlier?”
Xu Yang knew what Li Guangming was referring to but scoffed coldly, “Sorry, you’re not qualified to make demands of me. I’d advise you to think more about Bai Kunyu and Li Guangliang’s fates.”
Li Guangming narrowed his eyes and chuckled again, “Very good.”
Then, his gaze fell on Zhao Yuxin, and a flash of brightness appeared in his eyes, “This must be your wife, just as beautiful as the rumors say, truly a celestial beauty!”
Zhao Yuxin showed no reaction since Xu Yang had already told her what kind of person Li Guangming was.
Xu Yang said indifferently, “Li Dashao, there’s no need for your compliments, I know my wife is a beauty just like a celestial being. We do not welcome you here, please leave and don’t interrupt our conversation.”
Naturally, Li Guangming wouldn’t leave like that. To do so would be no different from slinking away in defeat.
Furthermore, as the Li Family heir, having just been rejected by Shen Yuyan, it was a blow to his pride; he needed to regain his stature.
At that moment, the sound of helicopter blades was heard again.
Without a doubt, another VIP had arrived.
Amidst the speculation, a helicopter landed, and a middle-aged man got out, holding the hand of a young and beautiful woman.
“It’s Liu Qiangxi!”
“The Liu Qiangxi couple really did come!”
“Liu Qiangxi looks spirited, seems like he’s getting younger and younger!”
“Jingxi Group is thriving more and more, I heard last year’s revenue exceeded a trillion, no wonder Liu Qiangxi is in such high spirits!”
“I think Liu Qiangxi’s good spirits have nothing to do with Jingxi Group’s development, it’s because he has a young and beautiful wife!”
“That makes sense, amongst business tycoons, Liu Qiangxi’s wife is indeed the youngest and most beautiful!”
“The real estate mogul Mr. Wang also got himself a young girlfriend, but she’s far from matching Liu Qiangxi’s wife.”
“Mr. Wang’s choice is a noblewoman; it’s more about status than beauty!”
“It’s not just about beauty for Liu Qiangxi either, hasn’t he said so in public? He claims not to even know whether his wife is beautiful or not!”
“Oblivious to his Wife’s Beauty, Liu Qiangxi, only such a tycoon could phrase such words with a straight face and earnest heart!”
“Ha ha, it’s just like when Daddy Ma said before, ‘I’m not interested in money’!”
