“So what?” Wei Zhou asked with a frown.
Lan Jian smiled. “So it proves that even though she doesn’t have you in her heart, at least she doesn’t have another man in her heart.”
“Lan Jian,” Wei Zhou shouted.
Lan Jian was puzzled. “What?”
“This is the most reliable sentence that you have ever said since I met you,” Wei Zhou rarely praised him.
Lan Jian was speechless.
Although Lan Jian’s words were full of ridicule, Su Yan indeed didn’t have him in her heart, but there was no one else. As long as Su Yan hadn’t fallen in love with another man, then he still had a chance to chase Su Yan, thus, his confidence suddenly increased by a lot.
Wei Zhou once again shifted his gaze to Su Yan. His eyes were soulful as he asked, “Other than me, who else has bullied Su Yan in the past?”
Hearing him ask this, Lan Jian was slightly stunned. Then, he reached out and patted his shoulder. “Not bad. You’ve recovered your confidence so quickly.”
Wei Zhou slapped his hand away in disgust. “I’ve already apologized to Su Yan, but who else has bullied her before?”
Lan Jian nodded. “So what do you plan to do?”
Wei Zhou glanced coldly at Lan Jian and said, “Before you go to bed tonight, send me a list of those people. Otherwise, I’ll bring you to see the local boxing gym tomorrow morning.”
Lan Jian was speechless.
Just as the two of them were talking, the six-story cake tower on the stage was pushed up. After Xia Jiang made his wish, he blew out the candles layer by layer. Finally, he cut the first piece of cake and handed it to Su Yan, so that she could share Xia Jiang’s first piece of cake. The guests naturally understood what Xia Jiang meant by this, and Su Yan’s status in the hearts of the crowd rose even higher.
Su Yan received the cake. She wasn’t overwhelmed by the favor, nor was she excited or happy. She was only calm and unperturbed, without any change in her state of mind because of this piece of cake. In the crowd, Wei Zhou had been looking at her for a long time. Su Yan finally glanced in the direction of the man. The two of them stood eight to nine meters apart and looked at each other in the air.
Xia Jiang only cut a piece of cake for Su Yan and gave the rest to someone else. Then, he took Su Yan out of the banquet hall and went to the resting room. Xia Zijian originally wanted to go as well, but today was Xia Jiang’s birthday banquet. His father and Su Yan had gone to rest. As his son, he could only stay and greet the guests. Otherwise, how would the group of guests feel if both father and son left?
Just as Su Yan walked off the stage, she suddenly realized that someone not far away seemed to be peeping at her. This kind of shifty-eyed feeling made her feel very uncomfortable, so she glanced to the side. Xia Jiang was talking to a man. As a senior in the business world, he knew that what he did at the birthday banquet today was a little out of line, so he had to explain it to some important guests. And this man who was talking to Xia Jiang, his name was Yue Chuang. The Yue family was also a prestigious family. Yue Chuang’s grandfather had participated in many battles and was a general who had received countless merits. His grandmother was also a ruthless person, the founder of Blue Sky Technology in Xia Nation. However, Yue Chuang’s father, Yue Longgang, was now in charge. Yue Chuang was only thirty-seven years old this year, and he was already the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. This time, for Xia Jiang’s sixty-sixth birthday, he had specially come on behalf of the Yue family to celebrate Xia Jiang’s birthday.
Seeing that Su Yan was looking at him, Yue Chuang nodded at Su Yan. Then, he looked at Xia Jiang and said, “President Xia has a good eye. His ability to judge people is also very good.”
Xia Jiang was on good terms with the Yue family. Xia Jiang and Yue Longgang were even bunk mates in the same dormitory of the university. Therefore, the two families could be considered to be on good terms. Therefore, Xia Jiang acknowledged Su Yan as his goddaughter, naturally, he had to inform the Yue family of this good news. Otherwise, Yue Longgang would start to pick a fight again. Therefore, when he told Yue Chuang about Su Yan’s matter, Yue Chuang naturally had to look at Su Yan.
Yue Chuang was like a son to Xia Jiang, so Xia Jiang knew Yue Chuang very well. The Yue family could be considered a truly wealthy family, and Yue Chuang was naturally also a true scion of a wealthy family. Although he seemed scholarly, his words were gentle and refined. He was warm and amiable, but there was a hint of arrogance in his bones. Ordinary people weren’t taken seriously by him.
Seeing that Xia Jiang and Yue Chuang were chatting happily, Su Yan tactfully walked out of the banquet hall. In the end, she saw Wei Zhou on the phone at the entrance of the banquet hall. Although she didn’t know who Wei Zhou was talking to, she knew that Wei Zhou was in a very bad mood. His expression was extremely dark.
After seeing her, Wei Zhou hung up the phone and looked at her. Su Yan walked to my side and said in an indifferent voice, “Thank you, CEO Wei, for standing up for me just now.”
