Chapter 323: Chapter 323: My Sister Goes Soft, Not Hard

Zhou Zhengyang was seething with anger.

As the heir of the Zhou Family in Qiantang, when had he ever been subjected to such humiliation!

Yet Zhou Zhengyang was well aware that the man before him was truly not to be underestimated, at least not by the abilities of his bodyguards.

Zhou Zhengyang wasn’t foolish, naturally unwilling to suffer such a loss.

"Fine, you’ve got guts! But this isn’t over between us today!"

With that, Zhou Zhengyang, along with his bodyguards, made a disgraceful exit from the office.

"Chen Xuan, what should we do now? Zhou Zhengyang is the heir of the Zhou Family in Qiantang. If we treat him like this, he will surely not let it go!"

Han Jingting seemed somewhat worried.

Chen Xuan smiled indifferently, "Don’t worry, as long as I’m here, no one can do anything to you!"

"Let alone him being from the Zhou Family in Qiantang, even if he were the Jade Emperor, I would never allow him to trouble you!"

Chen Xuan’s words warmed Han Jingting’s heart, and she felt an unprecedented sense of security.

However, at the same time, Han Jingting also felt a trace of guilt.

The acquisition contract from Zhou Zhengyang had been rejected by her after all. If it truly brought Chen Xuan any trouble, she would feel remorseful.

"Actually, the price Zhou Zhengyang offered wasn’t low. Maybe we should reconsider..."

Chen Xuan smiled lightly, "Do you really think that Jiaren Corporation is worth that much money?"

Han Jingting puzzled, "Then what is Zhou Zhengyang after?"

"If I’m not mistaken, Zhou Zhengyang is after my ’White Jade Frost’!"

"White Jade Frost has been confirmed as Jiaren Corporation’s new product, and the secret formula for White Jade Frost is completely tied to Jiaren Corporation. All rights belong to Jiaren Corporation."

"If Zhou Zhengyang were to acquire Jiaren Corporation now, then he would also own the secret formula for White Jade Frost!"

Han Jingting suddenly realized, "Right, how did I not think of this!"

It was only at this moment that Han Jingting finally understood what game Zhou Zhengyang was truly playing!

White Jade Frost was the only beauty product in the world that had been rated as S-grade. Its formula was invaluable and beyond any comparison with Jiaren Corporation!

Han Jingting felt a secret relief, lucky that she hadn’t been blinded by greed and signed that contract just now, or else she would have truly regretted it!

Meanwhile, Zhou Zhengyang returned to his luxury car in a fit of rage.

"Damn Han Jingting! And that worthless son-in-law! If I don’t absolutely destroy you, I’ll take your damn last name!"

The leather seats took the brunt of Zhou Zhengyang’s fury as they made loud popping sounds.

Never in his life had Zhou Zhengyang felt such frustration as he did today.

The assistant in the front passenger seat was petrified with fear, only daring to ask after a long while, "Young... Young Master, what should we do next?"

Zhou Zhengyang finally restrained his anger, his expression full of malice and playfulness, "No worries, I’ll play along with them slowly!"

"They want to keep Jiaren Corporation, don’t they? Then I’ll make sure Jiaren Corporation is thoroughly discredited and destroyed!"

The assistant was confused, "What do you mean, Young Master?"

Zhou Zhengyang was displeased, "Goddamn it, do you really need me to explain this simple matter? Didn’t you see the ready-made dirty water today, are you fucking blind?!"

The assistant immediately caught on, "I understand, Young Master. I know what to do!"

Fenghua Residential Area.

"You little wretch, how dare you speak up for Chen Xuan, that failure! Always sticking your elbow out the wrong way!"

"I’ve raised her all these years for nothing! Ungrateful as a wolf!"

As soon as Ding Lijuan returned home, she cursed nonstop, her rage unabated.

Afterward, she turned her anger towards Han Bowwen and roared, "And you, we agreed to confront Jingting together to ask for money, and look at you now, hiding behind and not daring to show your face!"

"You’ve left me to face them alone! Are you even a man?"

Han Bowwen wore a look of grievance, "I just wanted to see how things would go first. If Jingting agreed readily, then there would’ve been no need for me to step in."

"Besides, it’s not like I was the only one who didn’t go out. Why are you only blaming me..."

Han Bowwen glanced meaningfully towards Ding Liang and Guo Yueling.

Ding Liang hurriedly explained, "Aunt, the reason I didn’t go out to help you is because there’s a reason!"

"Oh? What reason?" Ding Lijuan asked, puzzled. "By the way, I haven’t asked you yet, why did you say in front of Jingting that I shouldn’t ask her for money?"

Ding Liang looked helpless, "Aunt, haven’t you realized yet? My sister doesn’t fall for your tactics anymore. The more you make a scene, the more she detests it!"

"So no matter how much you kick and scream, she won’t give you a cent!"

Ding Lijuan nodded, looking like she understood, "You’re right! In the past, as soon as I cried, she would get so worried. Now look, I went that far and she still didn’t loosen the purse strings!"

"So, Xiao Liang, what should we do now? We can’t just let this go, can we?"

Ding Liang gave a slight smile, "Of course we can’t just let it go!"

"Your sister was raised by you guys. Without you, there would be no her today. It’s only right and natural for her to support you and give you money to spend!"

"However, we do need to change the way we ask for money. My sister has always been strong-willed and is not someone who can be forced."

"As long as we find the right approach and hit her soft spot, I’m sure she won’t ignore you!"

Ding Liang was always cunning, best at scheming and dealing with sordid affairs.

But Ding Lijuan was completely confused and did not understand at all, "Then what exactly should be our next step?"

Ding Liang: "We’ll have to take it step by step. But there’s something important I need to do now. A friend of mine said they have found some deeper dirt on my sister’s company."

"It might help us with our next move, so I need to go out and meet this friend first. The specifics, we’ll talk about when I get back!"

For Ding Liang and Ding Lijuan, figuring out how to get money from Han Jingting had become their top priority.

They were even planning to devise a detailed action plan for it, showing how seriously they took the matter.

After all, getting money from Han Jingting was much easier than going out and earning it!

Not long after Ding Liang left, someone knocked on the door.

"Is Xiao Liang back so soon?"

Ding Lijuan hurried to open the door.

But the moment she saw the figure standing outside, she was taken aback.

"It’s you?!"

Ding Lijuan immediately recognized the people in front of her; they were the ones who had beaten her up in front of the Jiaren Corporation.

Especially the male assistant with glasses standing at the forefront—who she remembered most clearly.

Furious, Ding Lijuan cursed out, "What the hell do you bastards want? Showing up at my doorstep, do you think I’m that easy to bully! Get lost!"
