NovelEnglish670 Ability Was Evident
The Lu Family, who were facing Ji Yan and Shen Hanxing’s aura, could not catch their breath for a moment. Anger flashed across Lu Guo’s face, and the wrinkles on his face tightened. He looked at Ji Yan and said in a deep voice, “President Ji, are you not giving me face?” In the past, the Lu Corporation and the Ji Corporation were worlds apart, so he had to give in to Ji Yan many times. But now that the Lu Family and the Su Family were connected by marriage, the company’s prospects were bright and the Lu Family was about to rise to the top. How could Ji Yan not give him face? The Lu Family was no longer the Lu Family of the past. Were they going to be trampled on by Ji Yan like this? The reason why so many noble families attended Lu Shaoyang’s wedding was that the Lu Family had lots of potentials. So what if Ji Yan looked down on the Lu Family? Many rich and powerful families wanted to build a relationship with the Lu Family! He was not afraid of Ji Yan now!
The more Lu Guo thought about it, the more confident he became. He looked up at Ji Yan and said, “President Ji, I’m much older than you, after all. In terms of age, you should call me uncle.” He felt that if he were to back down now, he would only embarrass the Lu Family. More importantly, he was not willing to give in in front of Ji Yan. He took a deep breath and directly put on the attitude of an elder to Ji Yan and said in a strange tone, “You’re a young man. It’s normal for you to not understand the relationship between parents and their children. Isn’t it bad for a man like President Ji to get involved in the quarrels between women?” He laughed coldly and said in a tone of disdain, “I can’t believe that the President of the Ji Corporation is being controlled by a woman. I’m afraid people will laugh at you if they know about this.”
Ji Yan did not even blink when he heard this and said firmly, “I respect and love my wife. My wife has done so much for the Ji Family. If I can’t stand up for her when she’s being bullied outside, then I’m not worthy of being her husband.” Ji Yan was tall, had long legs, and had a noble temperament. He was speaking in a cold tone but his words carried warmth. He continued, “What’s more, what era are we in now? President Lu still has such old-fashioned thinking. Men and women have been equal for so many years. Who said that men can’t get involved in women’s arguments?” He held Shen Hanxing’s precious hand in front of everyone and said in a powerful voice, “My wife is my precious gem. I don’t usually dare to speak to her loudly for fear of scaring her. I also don’t ask for anything from her for fear that she will be forced to do something she doesn’t want. So who are you to criticize my wife in front of me?”
Ji Yan’s words were full of coldness, arrogance, and contempt. He did not put anyone in his eyes at all! Lu Guo’s face was pale and his eyes were filled with shame. However, he did not dare to say anything when he met Ji Yan’s dark eyes. What was he saying? Even if the Lu Corporation had a bright future, they are still considered to be less successful as compared to the Ji Corporation before the project was successful. Lu Guo had already mustered up enough courage to say a few more words to Ji Yan and even resist him. How would he dare to continue offending Ji Yan? If he really offended Ji Yan, he would probably die without even knowing how he died. Being one of the three major players of S City was not something that could be described with words. The ability was evident.
The courage that Lu Guo had mustered up with much difficulty was crushed by Ji Yan just like that. He remained silent for a long while and did not say another word. His behavior made the others look at him with a hint of sarcasm. Indeed, the small family could not make it. Even if they had the chance to rise to the top, they would not be able to achieve much. They were laughed at for no reason. If Lu Guo could endure it silently, people would sigh at his fortitude. However, he mustered his courage for a while and then gave in when faced with Ji Yan’s tougher attitude. It was really a joke.
Those who knew about the business world could see the future development path of Ji Corporation and Lu Corporation through the short conversation between Lu Guo and Ji Yan. On the other hand, many socialites were watching Ji Yan’s performance. How many women dreamed of a man like Ji Yan? Domineering and affectionate with appearance being very outstanding. This simply made others’ eyes red with envy! However, Shen Hanxing was also very outstanding. Other than her background, there was nothing else that could be criticized about her. Other than making the socialites jealous, it was difficult for them to have any other thoughts about her. They could only secretly pray that their future marriage partner would be half as good as Ji Yan.
