Bo Yan suddenly stiffened and felt dazed. He had even forgotten that Zhuang Xiaowei was still holding onto his arm."This happiness is supposed to be mine, but Lu Mingyu has taken my place!"Shen Zhiwei spotted Bo Yan as well, and also noticed Zhuang Xiaowei who was holding onto his arm. She recalled that she was the fourth daughter of the Zhuang Family from her engagement party.Surprised that she would run into them here, Shen Zhiwei felt her heart race. After being in a state of shock for a few seconds, she had to look away."Are they on a date?" Shen Zhiwei felt a pain in her chest, as if there was a pit forming inside her stomach.Bo Yan pried Zhuang Xiaowei's hands of him as soon as he returned to himself. He was about to explain to Zhuang Xiaowei when Lu Mingyu spoke."What now? Are you missing your ex-husband? I don't want my fiancee to linger over her goddamn ex-husband. Get used to your new identity!" After that, he threw an arm around Shen Zhiwei's waist and pulled her
Bo Yan stood there with a face void of all expressions, as if he was struck by lightning. He didn't move when Lu Mingyu brushed past him with something of a swagger.Shen Zhiwei looked sympathetically at Bo Yan. Tears had welled up in her eyes, but she couldn't utter a word. She could only take Duoduo back and follow Lu Mingyu into the restaurant.Bo Yan was yet to recover from the shock that Lu Mingyu's words gave him, so he continues to stand there in a trance-like state. Zhuang Xiaowei tugged his sleeve and asked tentatively, "Young Master Bo, are you alright? Lu Mingyu is such a bastard, taking your wife and daughter away like that. I mean it. He's so...""Miss Zhuang, mind your own business and I'll mind mine!" After saying those words, Bo Yan ignored the angry Miss Zhuang and swiftly left.Zhuang Xiaowei ran out after him, shouting, "Bo Yan, wait for me!"Bo Yan didn't even look back. He started the car and sped off.The Mercedes-Maybach sped recklessly through the streets,
One of their buddies was Wang Dongjun, an outstanding investor. All of his investments had turned out to be profitable, and many financial tycoon billionaires wanted him to manage their money in hopes of expanding their wealth.He was so famous in investment circles that everyone wanted to hire him. However, he had turned most of them away and only handled portfolios worth a billion or above.The fourth member of the group was Gao Yi, the head of the customs office. He was exceptionally vigorous in his work, and was known to be an upright and outspoken man. Smugglers would tremble with fear upon hearing his name. He had risen to the head of the customs office at a young age and had solved several major cases. Right after he assumed office, he arrested the leader of an international smuggling ring, destroying a powerful gang that had existed for years.Zhuang Shengnan was the youngest man to become a division commander in his military region. His work style was similar to that of Gao
Bo Yan's friends felt as if they had just heard the most complicated and eccentric story. They couldn't believe that they had been kept in the dark while all these things were happening.Picking up his glass, Bo Yan clinked it with theirs and said quietly, "I'm all by myself now. My wife has become Lu Mingyu's fiancee overnight, and before I know it, my daughter is going to call him dad. What have I ever done to deserve this?"The other three exchanged looks but didn't know what to say to comfort him. Such things simply weren't easy to get through.Putting down his glass, Zhuang Shengnan said earnestly, "Are there some old grudges between you and Lu Mingyu? Because he seems to be taking revenge on you. I heard from my superiors that your project in Bright Joy Bay had also been called off because of something Lu Mingyu did.""Speaking of that, I need to thank you for that. I heard from your fourth sister that the project was only reopened because of your intervention. Thank you so m
Bo Yan felt much better after seeing his buddies, telling himself that he couldn't let the pain win. "I need to fight back! I have to win her back!"The project of Bright Joy Bay was under intense preparation, so Bo Yan became too busy to think about his personal feelings. Everything was ready, and he was just waiting for the groundbreaking ceremony.The project was a large-scale recuperation and holiday resort. Not only did it include a lot of villas, it was also fully-equipped with necessary facilities as well. The project was so advanced and well-considered that it was one of the best resorts in the country. The response to the project's promotional activities was overwhelmingly positive and they were already receiving reservations!Bo Yan had invested all he had into this project, so he had to succeed!The launch day of Bright Joy Bay was set on a Saturday, which was also his wedding anniversary with Shen Zhiwei. Bo Yan wanted that date carved into the cornerstone, so that it c
"Ah Yan is better at business than any one of us, so since he's deciding on this, he must have his own good reasons for it. Don't worry." Zhuang Shengnan rested his hand on Wang Dongjun's shoulder, and they headed off to look for Bo Yan together.When the launch meeting officially began, Bo Yan briefly introduced the plans and vision of the project. He was followed by Mayor Huang and the Party Secretary relaying their hopes and blessings for the project.Lastly, the team in charge of the project made promises regarding their work and efforts in the future.It was about time for the groundbreaking ceremony. The first scoops of dirt had to be dug up by the mayor and secretary. The land belonged to them, so they obviously had to go first.It was almost time. Everyone was ready, and shovels were already given to the important guests. All that was left to do was wait for the time to reach 10:18 a.m. Bo Yan and the mayor prepared to lead the public to dig the first hole.All of a sudden
Lu Mingyu was rendered speechless by what Bo Yan and Wang Dongjun said.He had done his research, which showed that Bo Yan had no other external funds. He had placed his entire fortune on the Langyue Bay project. So Lu Mingyu let Bo Yan launched the project so quickly. He wanted to make use of how important this project was to Bo Yan to sabotage him.Never would he have expected that Bo Yan had the finance genius Wang Dongjun to support him. "Could it be that my sources were inaccurate?"Lu Mingyu knew that he did not manage to earn any favors and had also embarrassed himself. However, he had experienced enough in his life to handle this situation with little to no problem."So that's how it is? Then I have worried for nothing. Everyone in Jiangcheng knows that as long as Wang Dongjun has a hand in the project, there would only be gains and no losses. Wang Dongjun is clearly a genius and an expert in the world of finance! I am still hoping to invite Mister Wang to give me some advi
Bo Yan's words pierced Shen Zhiwei's heart. It felt like it was bleeding, so painful that she couldn't catch her breath. Despite her eyes brimming with tears, she could do nothing but hold it all in and make sure she didn't start crying.Composing herself in that instant, she pretended to be cold as she said, "Young Master Bo, you're thinking too much. There's no such thing as being forced into marriage. There is only mutual agreement. So, Young Master Bo, please stop meddling into such matters. As I am already someone else's fiancee, the way you're behaving is inappropriate!"Before Bo Yan could say anything, Shen Zhiwei left so quickly, it was like she was escaping him.With a dark expression and a vicious gaze, Lu Mingyu stared at the pair from a distance.Shen Zhiwei made it to the car, quickly wiping away the tear stains from her face. Lu Mingyu opened the car door with one hand and another in his pocket. He mockingly looked at Shen Zhiwei and said spitefully, "Shen Zhiwei, sh
