Chapter 900 - 910: Gathering in Huaxia (Part 5)
This bombshell immediately made Cheng Juye unable to sit still. He stood up abruptly, even knocking over the teacup due to the force!
"What? Tingting said Situ Xuan is also in Huaxia Country?"
"Yeah." Cheng Wanli still didn’t know about the call Situ Xuan had made to him. Nor did he know that Situ Xuan intentionally wanted to cancel this engagement!
Just now, Cheng Tingting called him from outside the restroom; her main purpose was, of course, to use the advertising endorsement opportunity to get close to Yu Zexiao! But if their company is unwilling to even develop in Huaxia Country, what’s the point of discussing endorsements?
Therefore, she told him all her recent insights and experiences in Huaxia Country. When asked why she wanted to go to Huaxia Country, she, without any hesitation, said: "Situ Xuan is there, I want to go and see."
Upon hearing this, Cheng Wanli almost cursed on the spot: "Do you know what kind of person Situ Xuan is? He is a living devil! How many people has he schemed against? Once he knows we’ve swapped you and Anning, how can he spare us and you?"
Before deciding on the engagement with Situ Xuan, they had also inquired about Situ Xuan’s reputation. Later, the father and son specially discussed it and agreed that although Situ Xuan was handsome and wealthy, he was indeed too cold and domineering. A pampered and willful heiress like Cheng Tingting might not last two days after getting married; she’d be in unimaginable trouble.
It’s better to let someone like Jian Anning, who is quiet and has a relatively obedient personality, get married. Even if she can’t win Situ Xuan’s love, she could at least remain a nominal fixture in the family, avoiding a terribly miserable fate.
—That’s also how they persuaded Jian Panying.
No matter what, Jian Panying is Jian Anning’s biological mother. Even if their mother-daughter relationship has been distant over the years, it doesn’t mean she would harm her daughter!
