The Billionaire's Hidden Affection-Chapter 264 Rival Confrontation 1_1

Zhou Ting! Yan Xixi’s mind suddenly buzzed. The biggest problem had finally arrived. She immediately backed away, leaning against the door. The official girlfriend has shown up at my door! What am I going to do? Zhou Ting was clearly a smart woman. She didn’t come up; instead, she summoned Yan Xixi downstairs, immediately establishing her dominance. Zhou Xiaoxuan’s voice echoed in her ear, "Do you know who Zhou Ting’s father is? Telling you would scare you to death. She has a cousin who, feuding with a high school classmate over a boyfriend, got so enraged that she had a few thugs gang-rape the classmate and torture her to death. Afterward, the classmate’s family had no recourse for their complaints and could only suffer in silence..." If Zhou Ting’s cousin was like that, what about Zhou Ting herself? She’s shown up at my door this time, clearly with ill intent. How can I handle this? What’s even more unfair is that I’ve already completely severed ties with Wan Donglin, yet now I’m innocently implicated. It’s like getting shot while just lying there! She went to the bathroom and looked at herself in the mirror. Then, she changed her clothes, paused to think, made a few more preparations, and only then did she slowly push open the door to go out.

In the living room were two women: Zhou Ting was seated, and Yan Xixi stood. This was the first time they had met. Zhou Ting wore the latest coat from a top luxury brand, and beneath it, a wine-red dress, looking very dignified and exceptionally elegant. She wasn’t adorned with lavish jewelry, but on her wrist was a Patek Philippe women’s watch. Yan Xixi had seen such watches when she was with Wan Donglin. Coincidentally, the one Zhou Ting wore was a top-tier limited edition, with a price Yan Xixi estimated to be in the eight figures or more. Poor people flaunt cars, rich people flaunt watches. Truly. The watch alone was enough to command attention, but more important was her aura. Just sitting there leisurely, she exuded the air of a princess. It was said she had once participated in a top-tier debutante ball, leading the first dance, and was acclaimed as the most beautiful "Eighteen-year-Old Princess" of her year, causing quite a stir in social circles. A few years later, she attended a prestigious university’s business school and then began working in a financial institution. She was the epitome of the "affluent, beautiful, and accomplished" woman.

Countless admirers always surrounded her: wealthy merchants, magnates, and the scions of influential officials. She had also experienced several notable romances, the most widely known being with a young, handsome, humorous, and witty financial titan working on Peace Street. They were considered a perfect match—talented man and beautiful woman. However, they were eventually forced to break up due to family reasons, as her father hoped for a marriage alliance with the Wan Family. Initially, she didn’t love Wan Donglin at all and felt that marrying him would be beneath her. But then, he unexpectedly hid his girlfriend in the golden house. Hiding a girlfriend in a golden house is not a great sin for a man like him—but the truly astonishing part was that he refused the marriage alliance because of this woman. Moreover, he had resorted to feigning illness. When Zhou Ting learned the truth, her fury was imaginable. Her father, Mr. Zhou, was not one to be trifled with. Having been subtly rebuffed several times, he clearly understood the Wan Family’s stance and immediately dispatched people to thoroughly investigate Wan Donglin’s activities within the country. The so-called terminal illness? It was all a fabrication. Wan Donglin was perfectly fine; he had been lying. Zhou Ting had never suffered such a huge loss of face in her entire life; her dignity as a cherished, high-society lady felt as if it had been brutally stripped away. Her father was also enraged. Following the trail, he discovered that the root of it all was this woman named Yan Xixi.

At this moment, the main culprit stood right in front of her. Zhou Ting stared fixedly at her, scrutinizing her from head to toe, and then from toe to head again.
