I Treat You as My Sister, But You Want to be My Wife?!

Chapter 348: Chapter 348: Stop Pretending_1

"I won’t explain this to you, I’ll just tell you one thing, recently a major enterprise worth tens of billions in Jing City was destroyed overnight, you should know about it, right?" Pang Bo said.

"Are you talking about Xingchang Group? Was it Shen Dong’s doing?"

The downfall of Xingchang Group was big news. Dai Yanghua had seen it on the news, but he didn’t know what had happened and wasn’t interested in delving into it.

"Yes, think about it, sending your uncle to mess with someone else’s company, isn’t that sending your uncle to his death? Can you blame your uncle for cursing you out?"

"Dongyan Media and Shuidilao are owned by Shen Dong. He has many other businesses too. Now, his net worth is probably in the tens of billions, and his power is even more terrifying."

"There’s a saying that circulates among the big shots in the business world, ’Better to provoke the King of Hell than to provoke Shen Dong.’ Just how formidable do you think he is?"

"I’ve said so much, you should know what to do by now. If the issue between you is really just a small misunderstanding, it would be best for you to go and apologize to him."

"It’s said Shen Dong is very magnanimous; he probably won’t hold it against you. Alright, I have other things to do, I’m hanging up."

After finishing, Pang Bo hung up the phone.

Listening to the beeping sound from the phone, Dai Yanghua stood there stunned, cold sweat already breaking out on his forehead.

...

Shen Dong returned to the dinner table.

"Why have you come back alone, where’s Dai Yanghua?" Chen Yuyan asked.

"He probably won’t be coming back," Shen Dong shook his head.

"Why, what happened?" Chen Yuyan asked.

"Do you remember what I told you this morning, about our car being rear-ended?" Shen Dong said.

"I remember, does it have something to do with Dai Yanghua?" Chen Yuyan asked, and then realizing something, she said in surprise, "You don’t mean that the person was Dai Yanghua, do you?"

Shen Dong nodded: "Yes, it was."

Chen Yuting, listening to their conversation, was completely confused and couldn’t help but ask, "What are you guys talking about, what exactly happened, and why won’t Dai Yanghua be coming back?"

Honestly speaking, she had a good impression of Dai Yanghua and thought that he was a decent person.

The words of Shen Dong and Chen Yuyan made her somewhat baffled.

Chen Yuyan took Chen Yuting’s hand and explained, "It was the night you stayed at your place, on the way back, Shen Dong’s car was rear-ended, and it was Dai Yanghua driving. At that time, Dai Yanghua was with another woman who was calling him ’husband,’ and his attitude was extremely arrogant."

"What!" Chen Yuting became angry.

She couldn’t believe that Dai Yanghua was that kind of person, he was simply playing with her feelings.

If it weren’t for inviting her sister and Shen Dong over to keep a check, she really would have been deceived by Dai Yanghua.

"That bastard." Chen Yuting swore angrily.

"Yuting, it’s a good thing to know his true colors now. A person like him is not worth your attention," Chen Yuyan comforted her.

"If I see him again, I’ll definitely slap him twice," Chen Yuting was still furious.

It wasn’t easy for her, she wanted to start a new relationship, but then she met someone like Dai Yanghua, it was not so easy to let go.

Chen Yuyan comforted her for a while more, and Chen Yuting’s mood finally calmed down a bit.

The three of them ordered their meal; they hadn’t ordered yet before.

After ordering, Dai Yanghua returned to the dinner table.

"Dai Yanghua, you have the nerve to come back?!"

As soon as Chen Yuting saw Dai Yanghua, she exploded with anger.

"Yuting, I’m sorry." Dai Yanghua could only apologize.

"Get lost, I never want to see you again," Chen Yuting had no intention of slapping Dai Yanghua, her earlier words were just spoken out of anger.

"Don’t worry, I will leave right away," Dai Yanghua nodded and turned towards Shen Dong, "Shen Dong, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have threatened you earlier, I hope you can be forgiving and let me off the hook."

Shen Dong’s face displayed a smile that wasn’t quite a smile: "Didn’t you just say you wanted to get your uncle to ruin my company?"

His smile made Dai Yanghua feel a chill run down his spine.

This smile was simply the devil’s grin.

Dai Yanghua hastily shook his head, "No, no, how could I possibly let my uncle mess with your company? I’ve never had such thoughts, just now I was only joking with you."

What joke could that be? With Jing City Xingchang Group’s tens of billions in market value, Shen Dong could annihilate it overnight.

Letting his uncle mess with Shen Dong’s company was truly a death wish.

"Get lost, I’m not interested in dealing with you," Shen Dong waved his hand dismissively, too lazy to pay attention to such people.

"Yes, yes, I’ll get lost, I’ll leave right away," Dai Yanghua nodded repeatedly and quickly turned to leave.

Now, he had no more thoughts about Chen Yuting.

To tell the truth, he felt he was really unlucky.

How could he have happened to encounter Shen Dong that night?

If that night’s incident hadn’t occurred, with his performance, he might have been able to gain Chen Yuting’s approval.

If he had gained Chen Yuting’s approval and become her boyfriend, then learned that her brother-in-law was Shen Dong, the boss of Shuidilao, his life would have skyrocketed.

Such a pity, there was no chance now.

...

Hai City International Airport.

A foreign man stepped out of the airport.

Just as he was about to hail a cab, a few policemen approached him.

"Mr. Henry, we’ve been waiting for you for a long time," the leading middle-aged policeman said.

"My name is Thomas, not Henry. You’ve got the wrong person, haven’t you?"

The foreign man was none other than the assassin Henry.

He had accepted the assignment but did not immediately head to Dragon Country. Instead, he waited a few days for a friend in Dragon Country to thoroughly investigate Shen Dong’s situation before entering Dragon Country.

Unexpectedly, he had run into the police as soon as he stepped out of the airport.

And it looked like the police were waiting here specifically for him.

What was going on?

Could his whereabouts have been leaked?

That should be impossible.

Aside from the boss, Victor, only his friend in Dragon Country knew of his arrival.

This friend shouldn’t be in trouble; they were only doing some basic investigative work and nothing illegal.

The current situation was truly baffling to him.

He had no idea why the police knew he was coming to Dragon Country.

Even if he were a prime target for Dragon Country’s police department, they shouldn’t have been able to find him so precisely.

His appearance had undergone a significant change after disguising himself; even Dragon Country’s surveillance network shouldn’t be able to recognize him.

It was all very strange to him.

However, he remained very calm, without any change in expression.

"Heh, Mr. Henry, cut the act. The moment you boarded the plane, we already knew. You committed crimes in our Dragon Country before and managed to escape. But this time, you won’t get away," the middle-aged policeman said with a sneer.

The police knew all of this, naturally, thanks to the information provided by Shen Dong.

Shen Dong certainly didn’t want Henry to enter the country and wait to assassinate him.

He wasn’t afraid, but he was worried that Henry would target the people around him.

Shen Dong had researched Henry’s profile and knew that this assassin would stop at nothing to fulfill his mission.

It was quite common for him to target those close to the intended victim.
