Chapter 225: Jin Tan and Jeon Jae-jun have started fighting (Please subscribe)

"Uncle Cui, I am truly sorry. I have had the call recording on my phone running for our entire conversation just now. Li Yi has likely already received the news on her end."

"I'm afraid your plan to reconcile this time is going to fail again."

"Don't blame me; I was only following Li Yi's instructions to deliberately test you. Who told you to be so unable to withstand a test?"

Chen Daojun's words left Cui Dongxu feeling icy cold inside.

He could no longer sit still, springing up instantly, his face looking extremely ugly as he stared at the phone on the table in front of Chen Daojun.

He never imagined that Chen Daojun would actually pull this kind of trick on him.

He had been played again!

"Damn it, you little brat, did you do this on purpose?!"

"Since you had a recording, why didn't you tell me sooner?"

"Damn it! I really want to..."

Cui Dongxu was so angry he nearly went berserk.

His fists were clenched tightly.

He had crashed and burned again this time...

It was truly detestable to the extreme!

If he had known it would be like this, he wouldn't have bothered chatting with Chen Daojun at all!

He would have been better off playing the mute and saying nothing.

Thinking about it, it seemed like the last time was the same. If Chen Daojun hadn't blabbed about his entanglement with his secretary, why would Li Xinxin have been angry enough to drive him away?

It was the same this time; Chen Daojun had been fishing for his words here to make him reveal his flaws.

This kid's heart is truly wicked!

There is definitely something wrong with him!

Could it be that he intentionally wanted his marriage proposal to fail, not wanting him, Cui Dongxu, to become Chen Daojun's future father-in-law?

The more he thought about it, the more he felt it was possible, and the angrier he became.

But once he remembered that Chen Daojun's phone was still recording, he couldn't continue swearing. He could only curse "damn it" a few times in succession, pick up the gift box nearby,

and turn to leave the office.

He slammed the door shut with a thunderous bang.

Cui Dongxu felt he was simply the unluckiest person alive; both times he came to reconcile with Li Xinxin, he ran into this jinx, Chen Daojun.

This guy was simply his nemesis.

Next time, he would absolutely not let Chen Daojun appear between him and Li Xinxin again; this bastard was definitely here to cause trouble!

And after Cui Dongxu left,

Li Xinxin, who had been trying hard to hold back from making a sound, finally couldn't help but let out a soft, whimpering cry.

It was as melodious and graceful as a nightingale, extremely pleasant to the ear.

"Hoo... Chen Daojun, you little bastard, you were about to suffocate me..."

Li Xinxin bit her lip, turned her head, and said with a coquettish glare.

Chen Daojun, however, said with a grin: "Who told you to hold it in? At worst, you could have let Cui Dongxu hear it. At most, it would have just made him furious and embarrassed, which would have been perfect for dispelling his thoughts of continuing to pester you. Wouldn't that have saved more trouble in the future?"

Li Xinxin frowned, gripped the armrests of her chair, and gritted her teeth: "If that happened, he would definitely go around spreading negative rumors about me. How would I be able to face anyone then? After all, we..."

"Besides, the most serious thing is letting Ruiqiu know about our affair. By then, I'm afraid we won't even be able to be mother and daughter anymore."

Chen Daojun simply had no such worries.

"If you can't be mother and daughter, then just be sisters. Isn't that even better? Anyway, Ruiqiu will find out sooner or later, so just let her get used to it first."

Hearing these words from Chen Daojun, Li Xinxin nearly fainted from anger.

"No! In short... anyway, you can't let her know now! Unless one day we absolutely can't hide it anymore..."

Watching her timid and cautious demeanor, Chen Daojun only felt she was extremely cute.

So he stayed in her office for a while longer.

He only left after she had repeatedly stated that it was enough, it was enough.

"This little bastard, every time it's like this..."

Li Xinxin was truly afraid.

When Chen Daojun didn't come to see her, she missed him unbearably, but when he actually came, she was afraid.

One could only say she was a woman who was both timid and loved to play.

After Chen Daojun left Li Xinxin's company, he went straight back to school. The judicial exam was over, so it was time to pick up a certificate of completion.

Anyway, he didn't need to go for an interview.

This second-place finish in the national judicial exam was of no use to him at all.

But he still had to pick up his Hancheng University diploma.

As it turned out, just as his car drove into the school,

he saw several familiar figures surrounded by a crowd of students.

After getting out of the car and looking, it was those same old acquaintances.

Kim Tan, Choi Young-do, Jeon Jae-jun, Son Myeong-o, and the three women: Park Yeon-jin, Lee Sa-ra, and Choi Hye-jeong.

Chen Daojun was very curious about how these people had run into each other, and it looked like they had even started fighting.

He walked over to listen.

Jeon Jae-jun looked at Jin Tan with a face full of anger and cursed: "You damn brat, Park Yeon-jin is a woman I am currently pursuing. You actually dare to compete with me for a girlfriend? You really don't know how to die. Don't think that just because you're the youngest son of the Empire Group you can do whatever you want. I'm not afraid of you!"

Jin Tan had taken two punches to the face and his nose was still bleeding. He retorted angrily: "What do you mean 'your woman'? Park Yeon-jin clearly said she didn't have a boyfriend. Stop trying to gild your own face; you're just one of her suitors, yet you have the nerve to call yourself her boyfriend. Have you no shame?"

Jeon Jae-jun was even angrier upon hearing this. If not for his lackey Son Myeong-o pulling him back, he would have rushed up to fight Kim Tan to the death.

"Damn brat! Don't you have a fiancée? Yet you come here to compete with me for a girlfriend, have you no shame! Get out, get out, get lost! If I see you harassing Yeon-jin again, I'll break your legs!"

It would have been better if he hadn't mentioned this.

When the subject of his fiancée came up, Jin Tan remembered the scene of his father scolding him.

Last time, when Li Xinxin and her daughter ran to the Empire Group and found his father, Jin Nanyun, to propose breaking off the engagement,

Jin Nanyun was very angry and felt he had lost face. But since the woman's side was so determined and decisive in proposing to break off the engagement,

he, the dignified chairman of the Empire Group, had no need to beg them to stay. Come to think of it, it was Li Xinxin and her daughter who had been climbing above their station.

However, after returning home that night, he had, for the first time in history, called his son Jin Tan into his study and scolded him severely.

He didn't listen to any of his explanations; it was just one sentence.

"You really are a piece of trash!"

"How could I have a useless son like you who can't even keep a fiancée!"

"I heard you're ignoring Liu Ruiqiu and instead obsessed with the daughter of a mute servant in the house?"

"I think you've really lost your mind. Do you know your own identity? You are my, Jin Nanyun's, son, one of the heirs to the Empire Group. How can you be a sycophant to a servant's daughter? You've completely lost my face!"

"You don't look like a chaebol heir at all; you're far worse than your brother!"

"And, I also heard that you didn't even manage to chase this mute servant's daughter, and she ran off with someone else."

"So now you've ended up with nothing—no fiancée, and no mute servant's daughter. What use are you?"

"You good-for-nothing wastrel! Go to the living room and kneel down to reflect on yourself!"

Thus, Jin Tan not only received a scolding from his father but also knelt in the living room for half the night.

From then on, Jin Tan was greatly devastated.

He no longer wanted to be a sycophant; he just wanted to be like Chen Daojun—see a beautiful woman and just snatch her away.
