Chapter 1753: An Unsettled Heart, Stirring with Anticipation

To be honest, she felt very uncomfortable inside; if it were anyone else, seeing their boyfriend dancing with another woman, they would likely feel uncomfortable too.

Zihan's personality was naturally attractive to girls, and now that his status had suddenly risen so much, she wasn't stupid—it was impossible for her not to have any sense of crisis.

But Tian Yuanyuan had a great sense of the big picture; although she felt very uncomfortable inside, she wouldn't show it!

She certainly wouldn't be like Bai Manman back then, making her boyfriend lose face on the spot.

She simply kept the grievance in her heart and continued to take care of Zihan as always.

As the person in charge of Dingsheng, Sheng Zihan's reception of the L-country president immediately became the focus of news media!

Major television stations, the internet, and newspapers all scrambled to report on this matter.

Dingsheng held a pivotal position in Jiangzhou, so who its Heir would be was naturally a topic everyone was concerned about.

Before this, Sheng Zirui was the candidate for Heir in everyone's minds, but this time the person had suddenly changed; why?

There were all sorts of rumors from the outside world, and the matter was making a huge stir, but no one from the Sheng Family came out to explain, though Sheng Hanyu had tacitly accepted the change of Heir.

With this matter causing such a big commotion, Huo Zhenteng naturally knew about it too.

He called his niece to his home and asked her: "A-Qing, Sheng Zihan is now the Dingsheng Heir; what are your plans? Tell your uncle your true thoughts, and your uncle will help you."

Wang Qing: "Uncle, what do you mean? Are you trying to tell me how many romantic rivals I have? I'm already heartbroken, so don't rub salt in my wounds."

Huo Zhenteng:...

This niece's brain... is typically love-struck.

How could he have such a stupid niece? But no matter how stupid, she was still his own family, so he had to persuade her.

Huo Zhenting began to break things down and explain them in detail to brainwash his niece.

"A-Qing, you wanted to pursue Sheng Zihan before to use him, but now you must strive to become his wife and make him fall in love with you, instead of you falling in love with him."

"Sheng Zihan is now the Dingsheng Heir, and in the future, the Sheng Family's vast family business will all be his. You will soon be a big star, and you are so beautiful; you two are a match made in heaven..."

"What is that Tian Yuanyuan anyway? She can't compare to you at all; she isn't even fit to carry your Spring Shoes..."

Wang Qing hadn't forgotten about Zihan in the first place, and now, encouraged by her uncle, she couldn't help but have ideas again.

"That's right, if he didn't have any feelings for me, he wouldn't have pleaded for me back then, let alone risked danger to save me. Uncle, tell me, how can I win Zihan back?"

"Rest assured, this matter is on your uncle; I will help you create opportunities, and the rest is up to you..."

Zihan had just become the Heir and was already being schemed against.

He was completely oblivious to this, with his heart and mind set on how to create opportunities for Zirui and Qi Shishi.

After finishing official business, there was finally a chance to talk about personal matters.

He asked Qi Shishi: "Hey, why don't you ask why the person receiving you this time is me, and not Zirui?"

Qi Shishi smiled slightly: "If you are willing to say, I am willing to listen."

Zihan: "Zirui broke with my father for your sake; he was kicked out of the Sheng Family and has had nothing ever since. He did it all for you."

Qi Shishi shook her head: "No, you are wrong. He didn't do it for me; he wanted to live for himself for once!"

Zihan:...

He opened his mouth wide in shock.

After a few seconds, he came back to his senses, and Zihan exclaimed: "My god! What was I still worrying about for you two? So you were already in contact behind my back?"

"Oh my, I'm so silly, so stupid!"

Qi Shishi was amused by his genuine nature.

Zihan was the only person she had ever met who, despite being in a high position and having great power, could still retain his genuine nature, frankness, and directness.

This kind of personality, how should one put it?

It's that he clearly makes you feel like he is easy to deceive, yet you are moved by his kindness and cannot bear to hide your true thoughts from him.

Qi Shishi raised her right hand and said earnestly: "I swear, I was only guessing; I haven't been in contact with Zirui, and I haven't seen him yet."

Consequently, Zihan was even more shocked: "Really? Then it must be fate. You two said exactly the same thing, not a bit of difference. Zirui also said he wanted to live for himself for once and be rebellious for once."

"Do you want to see him? I can help you arrange it."

Qi Shishi declined Zihan's kind offer, stating that she would arrange everything herself and told Zihan not to worry about it, lest his father find out and remove him too.

"Let him remove me! It just so happens I don't want to be any Heir!"

Zihan said indignantly: "I was forced into this, a reluctant choice. I don't want to be any Heir at all! There are older brothers and sisters above me, and a younger sister below me; anyone could inherit, why does it have to be me? Heavens..."

He had a look of despair on his face.

Qi Shishi smiled without a word, though inside she was very envious of their family atmosphere.

From childhood to adulthood, from Jiangzhou to L-country, she had seen too many families fight to the death over power and property.

There were far too many cases of biological siblings killing each other; after all the fighting and struggling, a family would fall apart!

And families that truly move upward are basically those where brothers are harmonious and parents are loving; only when the family members work toward the same goal can they fear no storms outside.

There is an old saying in Jiangzhou: "A harmonious family prospers in all things." In Qi Shishi's view, this saying is a golden rule.

She declined Zihan's help in making contact because she believed that Zirui would come to find her; he would definitely come!

Zihan was more enthusiastic than Qi Shishi had imagined.

As soon as he parted ways with Qi Shishi, he went to find Zirui.

Zirui was reading a book, reading with great interest!

Zihan snatched the book from his hand and asked: "Do you know that Qi Shishi is here?"

"Nonsense, how could I not know about such a big thing... You made a mistake at three minutes and fifty-eight seconds while dancing; practice more in the future."

Zihan:...

Dancing.

It is the basic etiquette of high society and a necessary skill in evening social gatherings.

But it's serious and rather boring.

In the past, he was merely a young master of the Sheng Family; he would go to such galas if he felt like it, and it didn't matter if he didn't, so he was not proficient in that kind of formal ballroom dancing.

But it is different now; now he is the Heir of Dingsheng, and his every move is watched by many people, so he cannot be as casual as before, which is why Zirui reminded him.

Zihan was furious: "Why are you staring at me? Why are you staring at me? The point isn't that I got my dance steps wrong, okay? It's that Qi Shishi is here, she is here, and you don't have anything you want to say?"

"What would I say?"

Zirui's gaze never moved away from the book!

"You don't want to see her?"

"I do!"

"I'll help you, I'll help you..."

Zirui: "No need, I have a way!"
