The Crippled Boss Loves Me

Chapter 922 - 922 Finally Agreed!

922 Finally Agreed!

“Xi’er, I want to treat you well and gain grandfather’s approval, so I will never give up the inheritance rights of the Zhuang Group,” Zhuang Li immersed himself in his performance and said with deep affection. “But Zhuang Yu is cunning and has deceived grandfather. Xi’er, you will help me, right?”

Wei Xi’er resisted the urge to pull her hand back and, suppressing her disgust, whispered, “I don’t desire the best things in this world. I’m already satisfied with having you. You’re the best in my heart.”

A flicker of annoyance crossed Zhuang Li’s eyes. If it weren’t for the Zhuang Group, how could he possibly compromise and be with Wei Xi’er?

“It is precisely because of that, I want to treat you even better.” Zhuang Li embraced Wei Xi’er and revealed a moved expression. He spoke softly, “I don’t want grandfather to be deceived, and I don’t want you to suffer. Xi’er, are you willing to be with me and work hard for our future?”

Wei Xi’er remained silent for a moment, and just when Zhuang Li was perplexed, she raised her eyes, teary, and said, “Zhuang Li, you are so good to me. I’m deeply touched.” She pressed her forehead against Zhuang Li’s shoulder and murmured, “I will follow your lead. Whatever you want to do, I will support you.”

Finally, she agreed! Zhuang Li breathed a sigh of relief. All his compromises and humility during this period had not been in vain! When he achieved his goal, he would humiliate Wei Xi’er thoroughly and make her realize that he was not the man she could hope for!

Zhuang Li was overjoyed and hugged Wei Xi’er tightly and exclaimed, “Xi’er, I knew you were the best!” His voice was filled with joy, pride, and excitement as he said with ambition, “Once I inherit the Zhuang Group, I will give you a wedding that everyone will envy!” He was so elated that he didn’t notice Wei Xi’er’s silence or the cold and dark gleam in her eyes.

“Madam.” On the other side, Shen Hanxing was pulled into an embrace with a faint scent of alcohol.

Ji Yan wrapped his arms around Shen Hanxing’s slender waist, gently kissing her forehead. “Where did Madam go?”

When she heard Ji Yan’s magnetic voice and felt his breath on her ear, Shen Hanxing’s smile deepened. In their intimate posture, she playfully bumped her nose against Ji Yan’s cheek and asked, “Did Mr. Ji have a drink?” Her gaze softened, containing an inseparable tenderness. “Did you have too much to drink?”

“No, I haven’t.” Ji Yan rested his chin on the top of Shen Hanxing’s head and chuckled. Even his chest trembled. He tightened his arms slightly and hugged Shen Hanxing tightly before letting go. “I just felt that the time spent apart from Madam was unusually long. I felt anxious when I couldn’t see Madam.”

Shen Hanxing couldn’t help but look up at Ji Yan. Was he acting spoiled? How rare. The usually composed and reserved man suddenly displaying a spoiled demeanor was even more irresistible than his sincere confession while drunk.

“So, Mr. Ji, you missed me?” Shen Hanxing raised her head, her eyes shining brightly. Her fingertips followed the texture of Ji Yan’s suit collar, gradually moving upward, brushing against his prominent Adam’s apple, and lightly rubbing against his chin. “Why do you miss me so much?”

Ji Yan did not speak, but there was a rare sense of discomfort in his dark eyes. However, he still cooperated with Shen Hanxing’s actions and exposed his fragile neck. He trusted her and placed his fatal spot in her hands. This kind of trusting attitude flattered Shen Hanxing even more.

Shen Hanxing burst into joyful laughter and then grabbed Ji Yan’s tie. “Mr. Ji, you’re truly tempting.” Her lips curved, and she looked at the usually meticulous Ji Yan, who now seemed flustered by her words and actions. The sense of accomplishment in her heart was beyond words.

Shen Hanxing tiptoed and planted a kiss on Ji Yan’s slightly cold lips. “This is a reward for Mr. Ji.”

“Not enough.” Ji Yan’s eyes suddenly darkened. He hugged Shen Hanxing’s waist and did not give her a chance to push him away. His voice was hoarse and his eyes were filled with strong aggression. “Madam, rewarding someone should be sufficiently generous. Only then can it encourage others to strive for better. Merely tasting the surface is far from enough.” As he spoke, he was about to demonstrate how she should reward him through actions.

Just then, a voice filled with a hint of a smile interrupted them. “I suppose it’s not the right time for me to appear?”

Lu Jin, dressed in a suit, stood a couple of steps away with a smile on his face.
