Chapter 170 Huang Ren greets the new boss!
Bai Wenling seemed to slump slightly in a dramatic manner.
She placed her hands on the table, staring at Zhang Wei in speechless astonishment.
Looking at Bai Wenling's dramatic reaction, Xiong Mei couldn't help but offer a wry smile and chose not to comment further.
However, the one most visibly affected by Zhang Wei's revelation was Song Shoushan. Her eyes were wide open, her expression a mix of shock and disbelief. Xiong Mei, noticing her shaken state, asked with concern, "Are you alright...?"
Song Shoushan snapped out of her momentary daze, nodding slowly as she tried to regain her composure. She cast a complex glance in Zhang Wei's direction, her mind swirling with confusion.
'Why was he with my mother last night?' she wondered, her thoughts racing in all directions. The realization of Zhang Wei's marital status was conflicting with her memory of him being with her mother, Zhao Hongyan.
The thought that Zhang Wei might be involved in a situation similar to her father's infidelity triggered a sense of unease in Song Shoushan. The bitter memories of her parents' troubled marriage added to her turmoil.
As her thoughts spiraled, a feeling of growing trauma started budding in her mind. She felt an urgent need to confront her mother, Zhao Hongyan, about this matter.
While emotions ran high and confusion gripped Song Shoushan, Mo Chen seemed to be the one enjoying this unfolding drama the most.
In his eyes, Zhang Wei's revelation was an unexpected gift, making his path to Bai Wenling potentially smoother.
The room fell into a hushed pause as Bai Wenling, still trying to wrap her head around the situation, ventured to ask, "So you are not only married but also have children?"
Zhang Wei shook his head, correcting her, "Only married for now."
Bai Wenling's relief was palpable as she exhaled a sigh, realizing that they weren't sitting with a father of two children.
The thought of inadvertently disrespecting him with teasing remarks about his family had been a concern she hadn't expected to face.
Seizing the moment to quell her curiosity, Bai Wenling pressed on, "So, how old are you? And how many years has it been since your marriage?"
Zhang Wei's response was calm and straightforward, "I'm twenty-five, and it's been three years since I got married."
The girls' expressions collectively twitched in disbelief, and Xiong Mei couldn't help but speak up on behalf of Bai Wenling, her skepticism apparent, "Brother, can you stop lying like this? How can you be married at twenty-five and claim it's been three years already? There's a limit to lying, you know."
Zhang Wei's response only deepened the mystery, "I got married at twenty-two."
!!
"So soon!?" Xiong Mei's exclamation of shock mirrored the sentiment of everyone in the room.
Her mind raced with questions, wondering who the woman was that Zhang Wei had married at such a young age.
The realization that they had married right after graduation added a layer of intrigue to the story.
Her thoughts wandered into the realm of the usual perfect love story, as if straight out of a movie, and she couldn't help but imagine the heroine in this tale.
Bai Wenling and Xie Meirong also held their curiosity at bay, resisting the urge to pry further into Zhang Wei's personal life.
Their expressions betrayed their intrigue about the woman who had captured his heart.
Song Shoushan, however, found herself sinking into a gloomy mood.
Her father's affair had cast a shadow over her perception of relationships, leaving her less than enthusiastic about love stories.
In contrast, the others seemed excited about this revelation, each person's emotions diverging in response to Zhang Wei's unexpected disclosure.
As for Mo Chen, a sense of jealousy began to creep over him, though he struggled to put his finger on the exact reason for his sudden change in mood.
Zhang Wei's decision to reveal his marital status seemed to have a strategic motive behind it.
He was well aware that Song Shoushan was already in the know about his relationship with her mother, Zhao Hongyan, so there was no point in hiding his married status from her.
By being upfront about it, he aimed to prevent any awkward confrontations or misunderstandings in the future.
Moreover, his revelation had a dual purpose with Bai Wenling and Xie Meirong.
By openly stating that he was already married, he was essentially setting a clear boundary.
He wanted them to understand that if they were to enter any relationship with him, it would be as his lovers rather than traditional girlfriends.
This way, he hoped to avoid future complications and potential conflicts arising from discovering his harem of women.
When it came to the possibility of Yu Lei dominating them, Zhang Wei couldn't help but chuckle inwardly.
He pictured her in his mind—those wide eyes with an innocent twinkle, the infectious laughter that always seemed to follow her, and her habbit for making silly faces and uttering nonsensical phrases.
Her behaviour hardly seemed the traits of a mastermind scheming to take control.
Observing her behavior over time, Zhang Wei acknowledged that Yu Lei rarely posed any genuine harm.
It was hard to imagine her orchestrating a complex plan to assert dominance.
Furthermore, he noticed a shift in her attitude lately. She had grown increasingly cooperative when it came to his interactions with other women.
This newfound willingness to accommodate his choices had prompted Zhang Wei to lower his guard and relegate her from the realm of suspicion for the time being.
*Knock, knock!*
In the midst of conversation, a distinct knock reverberated through the room, drawing curious gazes from everyone present. Amidst the intrigue, Zhang Wei's phone buzzed, announcing the arrival of a new message.
"Excuse me a moment," Bai Wenling began to rise from her seat, only to have Zhang Wei preemptively stand up, his attention captured by the unexpected interruption. Swiftly crossing the room, he turned the knob and swung the door open.
Before him stood a man in his late 30s, clad in a crisply tailored white suit. The subtle creases on his forehead betrayed a trace of anxiety, hinting at the urgency of his visit.
"You're Zhang Wei?" The man's voice held a thread of skepticism, his gaze scrutinizing Zhang Wei's features for confirmation. Zhang Wei's nod affirmed his identity.
"Huang Ren, right? Come Inside." Zhang Wei instructed.
"Oh, y-yes!" Huang Ren wiped the sweat off his forehead, a hint of relief in his voice as he stepped inside the room.
Yet, as his gaze swept over the individuals present, his expression contorted slightly in surprise. 'So many young girls?' His eyes flickered back to Zhang Wei, a thought forming in his mind.
'Boss has a thing for younger women!'
Unbeknownst to Zhang Wei, Huang Ren's inner commentary was far from complimentary. Had he known, he might have promptly escorted Huang Ren out.
As the CEO of Tianyi Entertainment, Huang Ren had arrived to secure Zhang Wei's signature on the share transfer certificate.
He hadn't anticipated the new owner of the company to be so youthful, but then again, anyone capable of orchestrating a billion-dollar deal was deserving of respect.
Careful not to let his gaze linger on any of the girls present, Huang Ren settled himself behind Mo Chen, seemingly oblivious to his uncomfortable face.
As Zhang Wei, immersed in his task, began signing the certificates one by one, Huang Ren was keen to avoid any disruption.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
