Chapter 693: 356 Tearing Apart (Fourteenth Update)_3

“Why should I be angry? After all, Miss Li didn’t target me on purpose, right?” The young girl’s eyes were so gentle and bright in the night, even the bone-chilling wind seemed to soften as it passed by her.

Li Jiaojiao stared blankly for a while before saying, “I… I really didn’t do it on purpose. You won’t take revenge on me in the future, will you?”

Ming Jing shook her head with a smile, “It’s late, Miss Li, you’d better go home. Do you want me to arrange a driver to take you back?”

“No… no need.” Li Jiaojiao’s face reddened as she quickly lowered her head and left.

Ming Jing dusted off her hands and looked up to see Gao Jia nearby.

“Miss Gao.”

Gao Jia smiled awkwardly and hurriedly lowered her head to leave.

Ming Jing shook her head with a chuckle, looking at the stars in the sky.

There were only a few sparse stars hanging in the night sky, like pairs of twinkling eyes.

“Stars, look at the beauty of tonight’s night…”

As Ming Jing re-entered the hall, Tang Wan, who had been sneaking away, noticed Ming Jing approaching. She was instantly pale with fright.

However, Ming Jing passed by Tang Wan as if she didn’t see her.

This kind of disregard was even worse than being slapped.

Tang Wan turned and stared at Ming Jing’s retreating figure.

She was tall and slender, lacking the graceful curves of a young girl, but she was calm and composed, like a cool breeze on a summer night that brushed away any impatience.

Tang Wan’s cheeks burned.

In Ming Jing’s eyes, she wasn’t even worthy to be an opponent.

What was the point of everything she did tonight?

Looking at Zhu Xiangxiang, who seemed to be out of her mind, Tang Wan suddenly felt ridiculous.

A bunch of fools and lunatics.

Tang Wan turned around and walked into the night without looking back.

In the hall, Ming Jing saw a tall and mature man standing under the light.

“Dr. Bo, it’s an honor to finally meet you in person.”

Bo Yuxun narrowed his eyes, “Ms. Ming Jing, I’ve heard so much about you, and tonight has been quite an eye-opener. Your reputation is well-deserved.”

He looked at the face before him, which was strikingly similar if he covered her eyes.

Even her eyes gave him a familiar feeling, but he couldn’t remember where he’d seen them before.

Whether it was her gentle appearance or some sense of déjà vu, Bo Yuxun felt a strong affinity for the girl before him and couldn’t help but want to get closer.

Even if she was Ran Bowen’s daughter, the offspring of an unspeakable villain.

Bo Yuxun felt it was a pity, why did she have to be Ran Bowen’s daughter?

What a twist of fate.

“Dr. Bo, you flatter me. I’ve long admired your name, and I apologize for any offense tonight. I hope you’ll forgive me, and perhaps I can host you another day.”

Bo Yuxun smiled and nodded, “I’ll be staying in Jiangzhou for a few more days, so I look forward to your invitation.”

In Jiangzhou, the only family that dared to compete with Jiang Chunlan was the Rans.

He needed the Rans’ support, but working with Ran Tengxiao was like making a deal with a tiger. Now, this girl named Ming Jing stood before him.

Regardless of her past relationship with Jiang Chunlan, the revelation of her background today had destroyed their friendship.

This girl was far from simple; judging from Jiang Chunlan’s defeated expression, she hadn’t expected to be outmaneuvered by Ming Jing.

Cooperating with the Rans was fraught with danger, but Bo Yuxun believed that even if this girl was a tiger, she was at least a kind and principled one.

“Dr. Bo?” Ran Tengxiao approached, “The Bos from Jingzhou, it’s an honor to meet you.”

“You’re too kind, Mr. Ran.”

Just then, Zhu Xiangxiang suddenly fell at Lin Qing’s feet, crying and begging, “Mom, I was wrong. Please don’t kick me out. I’ll be obedient and stop competing with Ming Jing. Please let me stay by your side.”

Zhao Xiaohui’s emotions were a mix of feelings. No matter how good her birth mother was, she couldn’t compare to a wealthy adoptive mother.

The child still didn’t understand. She was beyond help.

Lin Qing pushed her away, pointing outside and shouting, “Get out! I never want to see you again!”

“Mom, I really know I was wrong, please.” Zhu Xiangxiang clutched Lin Qing’s leg, sobbing uncontrollably.

“I admit I was blind and misguided. Please give me another chance, will you?”

Ming Xin frowned in disgust, “If you knew this would happen, why did you do it in the first place?”

“Sister Ming Xin.” Zhu Xiangxiang swiftly grabbed Ming Xin’s leg, “Please, Sister Ming Xin, persuade mom to let me stay. I’ll turn over a new leaf and be a good person.”

“Pah, your words are nothing but fart! My sister saved you countless times, but you’re still the same, like a dog that can’t change its habit of eating shit!” Ming Chen scolded.

“Dad.” Zhu Xiangxiang looked at her silent father Zhu Wentao, “Dad, you told me Ming Jing stole the company you worked so hard to build, that you were unhappy with her, and let me help you do this. Now mom and grandma are blaming me; please say something for me.”

Zhu Wentao’s face turned ashen, and he kicked her away, “What nonsense are you talking about? Shut up!”

Lin Qing stared at Zhu Wentao.

From the start, Zhu Wentao tried to make himself inconspicuous, and everyone nearly forgot his existence. It turned out he was the real culprit.

Zhu Wentao hurriedly tried to explain, “Qing’er, let me explain…”

“Explaining what? Do you think I’m a fool? Zhu Wentao, I really underestimated you.”

Ran Tengxiao looked at the commotion on the other side and couldn’t help smirking, “This drama is like an old lady’s foot wraps – smelly and lengthy.”

“Dog eat dog, fascinating, truly fascinating.”

Ran Tengxiao looked at Ming Jing, “Congratulations on escaping the den of tigers and wolves.”

However, it was just jumping from one den into another.

There was nothing to congratulate, Bo Yuxun thought silently.

“No, dad, you can’t abandon me like this. You personally collected the samples for the paternity test, and in order to get Ming Jing’s hair, you deliberately brought back crabs…”

Zhu Wentao’s eyes darkened, and he immediately covered Zhu Xiangxiang’s mouth, “Shut up!”

Granny Zhu solemnly said, “Let her go and let her continue.”

“She’s crazy, don’t believe what she says. Li Juan, drag her away!”

Li Juan, who had been hiding and watching the scene for an unknown amount of time, immediately ran out when she heard her name.

Granny Zhu shouted sternly, “I’ll see who dares to touch her, let her speak!”

Li Juan immediately stood still, focusing her gaze inward.

Bo Yuxun had no interest in the Zhu family’s mess, and as he prepared to leave, he accidentally scanned and noticed Li Juan standing in a corner.

Bo Yuxun’s eyes suddenly darkened.

What did Zhu Wentao call her just now?
