Chapter 1215: Acquiring the Xiao Family

While Xiao Mingyang was in a daze, Zhang Kaifeng straightened his clothes, placed his hand on the car armrest, and said with elegant manners like a nobleman, "Please tell Yuqing for me that I'm sorry Tang Na caused her trouble. I'll convey her apology to Yuqing on her behalf."

"Don't worry, I will."

"Also, keep an eye on the man in your family. He hasn't given up his pursuit of power, and his unexpected counterattacks can often be more devastating."

“I know,” Xiao Mingyang said with confidence, like a born king, “I have already had Da Zhong control Xiao Jincheng, so he won’t have any chance to take advantage of us! Xiao Jincheng has caused me and Yuqing so much suffering, and now, we will not let him go easily!”

Zhang Kaifeng gave Xiao Mingyang a deep look, then got out of the car and said, "I hope you can keep your word!"

Seeing Zhang Kaifeng about to leave, Xiao Mingyang quickly called out to him, asking, "Hey, don't go yet! Do you want to acquire our Xiao Group or not?"

"If your price satisfies me, I think I'll consider it."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Mingyang knew that Zhang Kaifeng was tempted. However, the reason he would compromise might not necessarily be the few points he had just listed.

Although Xiao Mingyang took the initiative to sell the Xiao family business, it does not mean that the Xiao family business is without merit. If Xiao Mingyang were to reveal this news, people who want to cooperate with him would probably be flocking to the Xiao family's doorstep.

But if Zhang Kaifeng were willing to acquire Xiao's Group, it would be a huge favor for Xiao Mingyang, and he would owe Zhang Kaifeng a favor in return.

On the surface, Xiao Mingyang seemed to dislike Zhang Kaifeng, but in his heart, he trusted the guy. It seemed that the two of them had unknowingly developed trust in each other.

Xiao Mingyang doesn't like owing favors to others, so he will find ways to make up for it.

With a smile playing on his lips, Xiao Mingyang said, "I hope you can consider it soon, because I need to settle everything at the Xiao Corporation before Qingtian's wedding, and return to China safely with Yuqing. Perhaps this time we won't be coming back. And when that happens, you're not allowed to cry without us by your side!"

Zhang Kaifeng glared at Xiao Mingyang and said, "You're overthinking it!"

After saying that, Zhang Kaifeng slammed the car door shut again.

The deafening noise made Xiao Mingyang wince in pain. He leaned out of the car window and yelled at Zhang Kaifeng, "Didn't I tell you not to slam my car door!"

The only response to Xiao Mingyang's roar was Zhang Kaifeng's silent back.

……

Sitting in the coffee shop, Donna nervously gripped her cup, her eyes constantly glancing towards the door, as if she were waiting for someone.

I glanced at the time; it was already half an hour later than the scheduled time. Would that person even show up?

"Beautiful lady, may I sit here?"

The sudden voice behind her startled Donna. When she saw who it was, she couldn't help but complain, "You're so unpunctual! You're late, don't you know that?!"

Faced with Donna's accusation, Siwen smiled and said, "I wasn't late, I even entered this coffee shop earlier than you."

Donna was taken aback, not believing Siwen's words, and questioned, "If you were already here, why didn't you come to find me? Are you happy to see me sitting here alone?"

“Beautiful lady, don’t be so temperamental,” Si Wen smiled brightly, dazzling and warm, making one unconsciously believe his words. “The reason I didn’t come to find you is because I wanted to make sure no one was following you. Your fiancé is not an easy guy to deal with, so I had to be careful, which isn’t wrong, is it?”

Seemingly finding Si Wen's words reasonable, Donna didn't pursue the matter further. Instead, she anxiously asked, "You said that as long as I cooperated with you and caused trouble for Lin Yuqing, you would make Lin Yuqing disappear! But why is she still doing well, and even able to continue seducing my fiancé!"

"Wait, let me have something to drink first, I'm thirsty." Si Wen raised his hand and called over the waiter. He hesitated for a long time in front of the menu before ordering an iced mocha.

After the waiter left, Donna's eyes could kill.

Siwen seemed to only then notice Donna's displeasure, and said, "Oh, right, I came today to give you a gift. Here, this is your wedding present!"

Looking at the heart-shaped box in front of her, Donna had an urge to throw it away! But out of respect for Siwen, Donna could only patiently open the packaging and find a key inside.

Donna picked up the key suspiciously and asked, "What is this?"

"Weren't you always curious about what was in Zhang Kaifeng's locked box? I found the key for you, which can satisfy your curiosity."

Donna and Zhang Kaifeng came to France together, ostensibly to order a wedding dress and suit, but Donna knew it was just a pretext; Zhang Kaifeng was definitely busy with other things. Strangely, despite the short and hurried trip, Zhang Kaifeng carried a box with him, which he treasured every day, but Donna couldn't even touch it.

Donna thought that Zhang Kaifeng's secret must be hidden inside, even though reason told her not to touch it. Donna just couldn't control her desires; every day, looking at the tightly closed box, she felt an urge to smash it.

Now, the key to unlocking the box is right in front of her, and it can unlock Zhang Kaifeng's secret, but Donna hesitates.

Looking into Donna's eyes, Si Wen knew what was troubling her, so he teased her, "What's wrong? Aren't you scared? I thought you loved Zhang Kaifeng so much, but you're just a coward!"

Holding the keys in her hand, Donna looked at Siwen defiantly and said disdainfully, "It's just looking at a box, why would I be afraid!"

"Alright, then I'll wait for your good news."

Glancing sideways at Siwen, Donna asked coldly, "Besides this key, don't you have anything else to say? I did as you said, so why haven't I seen Lin Yuqing disappear? You're not lying to me, are you?"

Sipping his iced coffee, Siwen smiled brightly, staring innocently at Donna, and said, "How could I possibly lie to you? I'm just trying to help you! In terms of our relationship, I'm your distant cousin, we're family. I'll only help you get on your feet, so don't worry."

Donna had always been skeptical of this suddenly appearing distant relative. However, she had asked her mother, who confirmed that she did indeed have a cousin in China whom she hadn't contacted for many years, and that the situation perfectly matched Siwen's description.
