Chapter: 15

Mrs. Xiu's mother blurted out, "You can't agree to that either, not just you, even if your grandmother went, people wouldn't bother with her!"

Lei Chen gazed at the scene before him and smiled bitterly to himself. He knew his in-laws were schemers, and they would never believe it if he told them that he was the CEO of the Emperor Group?

Just then, a knock on the door suddenly echoed from inside.

"Coming, coming..."

Mrs. Xiu's mother groaned and opened the door with a sigh.

Lei Chen looked up to see a young man standing at the door, dressed in Armani and exuding an air of sophistication and refinement. He was holding a Rolex watch worth at least three to five hundred thousand dollars.

Mrs. Xiu's mother was suddenly thrilled: "Ah, it's Wen Hao! What brings you here?"

The person who had just arrived was Zhang Wen Hao, the long-time pursuer of Xiu Chu Ran.

Zhang Wen Hao smiled and said, "Auntie, I heard that Chu Ran has taken on a project with the Emperor Group, so I came to offer her some advice."

"Ah, you're truly our family's savior!"

Ma Lan's mood was extremely excited, looking at Zhang Wen Hao's eyes as if looking at his own son-in-law. He quickly ushered him in and said, "Wen Hao, can you help Ran help with getting the contract from Emperor Group?"

Zhang Wen Hao smiled and nodded, not even glancing at Ye Chen standing beside him, treating him like an ant on the road, before rushing over to Xiao Ran and whispering, "Ran, this is such a big deal. You didn't say anything to me about it. But don't worry, Emperor Group has a cooperation with our family company. I'll just ask my dad to make a phone call, and I'll do my best to help you."

In fact, Zhang Wen Hao's father had no such great power; he was just pretending to impress Xiao Ran.

Xiao Ran knew that Zhang Wen Hao had feelings for her, so she replied coolly, "Zhang Wen Hao, your good intentions are appreciated. I can take care of it myself."

Ma Lan couldn't believe his ears and exclaimed in shock, "Ran, have you gone crazy? Zhang Shao is coming to help you with good intentions, how could you say that?"

Xiao Ran remained silent, but Ye Chen beside her was intrigued and asked Zhang Wen Hao, "Zhang Gongzi, I'm curious - what can you do to help Ran? Emperor Group is so big; it shouldn't be influenced by your family. Can you make them sign a contract with Ran?"

Zhang Wen Hao sneered coldly and said, "You know what? Our Zhang family has always been deeply cooperative with Emperor Group. This time, they're doing a 20 billion yuan project. We can at least get one-third of it! When the time comes, I'll ask my dad to directly allocate some of that three-tenths to Ran, and that will help her complete her task."

Ye Chen was surprised and said, "Wow! I never thought the Zhang Gongzi family had such deep connections with Emperor Group!"

Zhang Wen Hao snickered coldly and said, "Of course we do! In Jinling City, who doesn't know our Zhang family is closely connected to Emperor Group?"

After that, Zhang Wen Hao looked at Ye Chen disdainfully and said, "Ye Chen, I advise you - as a man stuck in a hole like an ant, why don't you just leave Xiao Ran on your own? You're not capable of giving her happiness; instead, you'll only drag her down."

Xiu Chunran said coldly at this moment, "I'm sorry, Zhang Gongzi, I don't need your help. Please also refrain from speaking ill of my husband!"

Zhang Wenhao stared with his mouth agape and said, "Chunran, you're the one who helped me, and yet you're going to protect this good-for-nothing? What's there for him that deserves your defense?"

Xiu Chunran spoke seriously, "He is not a good-for-nothing. He is my husband!"

Zhang Wenhao's face turned dark with anger, shouting, "Alright! Let's toast and punish those who don't know how to drink! I'd like to see what you can do to resolve this trouble! If it doesn't work out in the end, don't blame me for not giving you a chance!"

After finishing his words, Zhang Wenhao turned around and walked away. Ma Ran was still thinking about explaining things, but Zhang Wenhao had already left. JrNovels.com
