Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 2253: Chapter 57: He Wonders If He Should Return the Favor and Invite Her to Stay at His Home

Shi Xi’s heart sank.

Listening to her father’s tone, it seemed he was very eager for an alliance with the Ye Family.

She was silent for a moment and then said stiffly, “Dad, I met Ye Zhan this morning. He won’t agree.”

The look in Ye Zhan’s eyes was so indifferent.

“You’ve met Ye Zhan?”

Although Shi Dongping knew that Ye Zhan and Tang Jinchen were in G City, he didn’t expect Shi Xi would have already met Ye Zhan.

“Yes, I met him at the Qin Family’s house this morning. Dad, Ye Zhan is with Qin Qingqing.”

“Hmph, the combined forces of the Qin Family and the An’s Home are no match for our Shi Family now. I will find an opportunity to let Mr. President stand up for you. Book your ticket and come back immediately, Shi Zhen heard Ye Zhan is returning today, and she went to the Ye Family after breakfast…”

Shi Zhen is Shi Xi’s cousin and has been hopelessly obsessed with Ye Zhan since she was young.

Even when Ye Zhan was not at home, she would frequently visit the Ye Family.

Upon hearing that Shi Zhen went to the Ye Family, a hint of ridicule appeared on Shi Xi’s face, “Dad, Ye Zhan doesn’t like her, it’s useless for her to go. I’ve checked, Ye Zhan has been staying at the Mo Family’s house for the past few days, which means he is on good terms with Ziyi. Dad, please help me marry into the Mo Family, I don’t want to marry Ye Zhan.”

She liked Mo Ziye, not Ye Zhan.

No matter how good Ye Zhan was, she didn’t want to marry him.

“Why don’t you listen? Do you want Shi Zhen to marry Ye Zhan?”

“Ye Zhan won’t want her, Dad. Mo Ziye may be a businessman, but his capabilities are no worse than Ye Zhan’s. If you get his support, your ambitions will definitely be achieved more easily.”

Shi Xi knew that her father’s ambitions went far beyond his current position.

Thus, he wanted her to get close to Mo Ziye, to marry into the Mo Family.

He sought Mo Ziye’s wealth to fulfill his ambition.

“I have other plans…”

“Dad, I know you want Haochen to directly become part of our Shi Family, but doing so would make Mo Ziye see you as an enemy, and he would surely use all his resources to take revenge on you…”

“Of course I know that. If you can win Mo Ziye’s heart, I naturally won’t stop you, but you can’t now, Mo Ziye obviously doesn’t like you.”

He had done detailed research on Mo Ziye.

He knew Mo Ziye was the same as his father, Mo Xiuchen.

If Shi Xi could win Mo Ziye’s heart, he would do anything for her without hesitation.

“Dad, I can do it. Just give me some more time, I’m already Ziye’s girlfriend. If it weren’t for that Qin Qingqing’s sudden return, Ziye wouldn’t act like this towards me.”

As she spoke, Shi Xi’s eyes revealed a trace of hatred.

It was all that annoying Qin Qingqing’s fault.

“I can give you a chance, but you must come back tonight. You must attend the Ye Family’s banquet, you can’t put all your hopes on one branch, the Mo Family.”

Shi Xi must secure either Ye Zhan or Mo Ziye.

Imperial Capital Airport.

Momo was on the same flight as Ye Zhan and Tang Jinchen.

The city she was on a business trip to happened to be the Imperial City.

Having stayed at the Mo Family’s house for a few days earlier, upon arriving in the Imperial City, Ye Zhan politely asked Momo, “How many days will your business trip last?”

“I will stay here one night and leave tomorrow.”

Momo replied with a smile.

Tang Jinchen followed up with a question, “Momo, have you decided where you’ll be staying?”

“At a hotel.”

“A hotel? I thought you would stay at my uncle’s house in the Imperial City.”

Tang Jinchen frowned.

But Momo shook her head, “No, I’ll only be in the Imperial City for one day, I don’t want to bother Grandfather Qin and Granny Qin.”

Just as she finished speaking, her phone rang.

Seeing the caller ID, Momo’s delicate face showed surprise, “Speaking of Uncle Qin, he’s calling now.”

“Looks like Uncle Qin knows you’re in the Imperial City.”

Ye Zhan looked at her phone thoughtfully.

That works well too.

He had just been pondering whether, having stayed at the Mo Family’s house for a few days, now that Momo had arrived on his turf, he should return the favor by inviting her to his home instead of allowing a girl to stay in a hotel.

But he felt it wasn’t quite appropriate.

“Hello, Uncle Qin.” Momo answered the call, her voice cheerfully flowing out from her lips.

After going through security, Tang Jinchen and Ye Zhan slowed their pace a bit, so as not to leave Momo, who was on the phone, too far behind.
