Chapter 326: Chapter 324 Tsk tsk... Ignorant!
Lu Dagui’s face had turned completely dark now.
He had thought that, through the Lu Family’s overseas business, obtaining investment from the XJ Group wouldn’t be too difficult.
But with the added resentment between Xia Wenjin and Lu Zhaozhao, he was sure he wouldn’t get the money!
Lu Dagui had never detested Xia Wenjin so much.
If it weren’t for her... would he have been able to secure the investment from XJ Group?
No, if it weren’t for him, he wouldn’t have needed to stoop so low and beg, Lu Zhaozhao alone would have been enough.
Lu Dagui genuinely regretted it so much that his guts turned green!
Cao Mei felt as if the whole sky had collapsed, "The XJ Group’s heiress..."
She reached out and tugged at Xia Wenjin, "Jin, didn’t you say that the Xia Family was poor and even abused you previously? How could their family possibly be the XJ Group? Are they lying?"
"Enough!" Xia Wenjin raised her hand and pushed Cao Mei down, "They deliberately kept it from me and abused me; otherwise, how could I not know they are from the XJ Group?"
Xia Wenjin clenched her teeth, filled with resentment toward the Xia Family.
She even wondered if the Xia Family always knew she was not their biological child, which was why they were so wary of her.
"My parents abused you? Xia Wenjin, do you have a persecution complex?" Lu Zhaozhao’s brows furrowed instantly, "Wasn’t everything you had at the Xia Family top-notch? They took such good care of you to protect you from harm; how can you have the face to blame them?"
Lu Zhaozhao thought about how in the past life, Xia Wenjin had everything from the Xia Family, yet she destroyed them herself.
She wished she could slap her right then and there.
She couldn’t understand why, after the Xia Family gave her their all, it resulted in such an outcome.
But now, seeing Xia Wenjin claim she was abused for the past 20 years due to the Xia Family’s secrets,
Lu Zhaozhao felt like she finally understood something that had always puzzled her.
Perhaps it was because Xia Wenjin found out that someone from the Xia Family had secretly approached the Song Family, so she ruthlessly destroyed the Xia Family.
She wouldn’t allow anything given to her to be shared with anyone else, not even a little bit.
Especially since she had long considered the Xia Family as something in her pocket.
"Zhaozhao, you should go to the stage, Mr. Song from your family will be looking for you soon." Xu Zhenzhen watched Lu Zhaozhao’s mood and patted her hand.
Lu Zhaozhao glanced at Xu Zhenzhen and then toward the center of the ballroom’s stage, just in time to see Song Sinian looking over.
Their eyes met across the distance, and Song Sinian immediately walked towards her.
Lu Zhaozhao didn’t want to waste time on Xia Wenjin; she picked up her skirt and headed towards the center of the stage.
How could Xia Wenjin let Lu Zhaozhao go? Just as she reached out to grab her arm, Xu Zhenzhen quickly twisted her arm and pressed her down.
Her move was too quick; before Mr. and Mrs. Lu could react, Xia Wenjin was already under Xu Zhenzhen’s foot.
She was wearing a pure white haute couture dress, and Xu Zhenzhen had just stepped a shoe print onto the back of it.
"You let... mmph!!!"
Before she could finish her words, Xu Zhenzhen covered her mouth, "Xia Wenjin, if you don’t want everyone to see you embarrass yourself, you’d better shut up now, or I’ll tear your haute couture dress and cool you down?"
Xia Wenjin’s voice abruptly stopped; she knew Xu Zhenzhen was crazy enough to do it.
So even when she was extremely angry, she had no choice but to forcibly remain silent.
Xu Zhenzhen looked at Xia Wenjin with satisfaction, then soon heard Xia Wenjue’s voice coming from the center of the stage.
"Hello everyone, I am Xia Wenjue, the current president of XJ Group. You all want to know why we’re collaborating with the Song Group, and the reason is actually very simple..."
He courteously extended his hand toward Lu Zhaozhao, and upon seeing Luo Zhaozhao place her hand in his, he solemnly announced,
"Because the little princess of XJ Group is married to Song Sinian, the president of Song Group, and Sinian and I have decided that all projects of this collaboration between XJ Group and Song Group will be gifted to Xia Family’s youngest daughter, Lu Zhaozhao."
As soon as Xia Wenjue finished speaking, everyone around erupted into shock.
"Oh my! All the projects involved in the cooperation between XJ Group and Song Group? That’s a huge deal! Both XJ Group and Song Group have invested a lot of money in these projects, and now they’re all given to Lu Zhaozhao? How much money is that?!"
"Now, apart from XJ Group and Song Group, Lu Zhaozhao must be the wealthiest in the entire Shangjing Circle."
"I wonder if the foster parents who severed their parental relationship with Lu Zhaozhao will regret it now, haha..."
"I really don’t understand their thinking? Clearly, after their daughter married into the Song Family and got so pampered by Song Sinian, if they had maintained a good relationship with this daughter, wouldn’t they have everything they could wish for? And to think she’s also a heiress of the XJ Group! Tsk tsk... such folly!"
...
The foolish Mr. and Mrs. Lu: ...
Had they known things would turn out this way, they would have never driven Lu Zhaozhao away, let alone oppose her at every turn.
Lu Dagui and Cao Mei thought of this, their looks at Xia Wenjin filled with indescribable resentment and bitterness.
Xia Wenjin was also very angry, but she was held down by Xu Zhenzhen and couldn’t get away.
"What are you doing?"
Suddenly, an elegant voice came through, the familiar intonation startling Xu Zhenzhen.
Feeling uneasy, she reflexively let go of Xia Wenjin the next second. 𝒏𝙤𝙫𝒑𝙪𝙗.𝙘𝒐𝙢
True enough, when she looked up, she saw Xia Wenqing walking over.
"Second Brother," Xu Zhenzhen called out somewhat guiltily.
She didn’t know how to explain her recent actions.
Usually, she was fierce working under Song Sinian, especially just now when she clashed fiercely with Xia Wenjin, losing all semblance of the ladylike persona she had tried to maintain in front of Xia Wenqing.
How could such a strict man like him like a fierce and violent woman?
Xia Wenjin, seeing Xia Wenqing’s displeased face, thought he was angry because Xu Zhenzhen had hit her.
After all, she was once a child of the Xia Family, and though not very close, her second brother usually took care of her.
Thinking this, Xia Wenjin immediately threw herself at Xia Wenqing, "Second brother, woo woo woo... this woman hit me!"
Xia Wenqing almost reflexively pushed Xia Wenjin away, not quite catching the mumbling from her mouth.
Xia Wenjin, not standing steadily, fell directly to the ground.
Not just Xia Wenjin, even Xu Zhenzhen was stunned.
Xia Wenqing frowned slightly and brushed off the arm Xia Wenjin had clutched.
He was originally coming to find Xu Zhenzhen, but as soon as he saw her, he saw Xia Wenjin causing trouble...
