C1 Slag Man

February 14th. It was the twentieth birthday of An Xi Nuo. At the same time, it was also the date of her engagement to Zhou Jiaming.

At the city's most luxurious X Hotel, the two held a grand engagement ceremony and simultaneously announced that the Anuo Group and the Zhou Group had officially joined forces to enter the jewellery industry. It was a typical business alliance.

It was just that the two of them had been classmates for four years, and they also had the appearance of a golden couple. It was easier for others to believe that the two of them had perfectly combined their feelings and emotions.

Under the flickering lights, regardless of whether they were sincere or not, everyone raised their glasses in celebration. However, there was only one person who put down the cup in silence. His pair of black lacquer eyes were staring at An Xi closely, as if he was determined to catch the light of his prey.

"An Xi Nuo?" Zhai Yuji raised his glass and held it in front of An Xi.

His eyes were full of undisguised predatory intent as he sized up An Xi and Na Nuo.

He had an oval face, willow shaped eyebrows, cherry lips, and a rosy, plump, classical beauty. His almond eyes, however, carried a coldness that could not be seen from a thousand miles away, especially that overly icy face. There was not even a hint of gentleness in his face.

The corners of Zhai Yuji's lips curled up in a smile. He was very satisfied with this.

An Xi glanced at Di Yu's angular appearance. She was certain that she didn't know him, nor did she have any business dealings with the An Nuo Corporation. She didn't even bother with him as she turned to leave.

"You haven't told me your name yet." Zhai Yu moved in a flash, once again blocking An Xi Nuo's path.

An Xi Nuo frowned, not willing to be entangled with him any longer. She said lightly, "An Xi Nuo."

He intended to turn around and leave, but was stopped by Di Yu, who was usually indifferent. He couldn't help but feel angry, but he frowned slightly as he stared at Di Yu Gun to see what he was going to do.

"An Xi Nuo, very good name, very suitable to be my wife." The corners of Zhai Yuzhan's lips curled up in a smile. A trace of a smile flashed across his blade-like face. It was unexpectedly gentle, like the first melting of ice and snow, and captivated the hearts and souls of those who looked at him.

However, An Xi Nuo seemed to completely ignore him and said coldly, "Being suitable doesn't mean that it is possible."

"I heard that the An Nuo Group needs a financial partner." Zhai Yuzhan took a sip of his wine and spoke as if victory was in his grasp, "I think you should know that I'm the new CEO of the Zhai Group."

Zhai Yuji extended his broad palm in front of An Xi's face.

An Xi looked from Zhai Yu Guai's hand to his unfathomable eyes, but he had no intention of shaking hands with him.

After a slight pause, he snorted coldly, "It's a pity that the An Nuo Corporation has already decided on a partner."

I heard that the president of Zhai Group had made a lot of new project plans as soon as he took office, he transferred most of the focus of Zhai Group's overseas expansion to the country. The top management of Zhai Group strongly opposed it, but it was met with his iron wrist, which almost wiped out the entire top management of Zhai Group.

He was the most callous, brutal and mysterious CEO.

She admired his decisiveness and calmness, but she would never marry with such a person.

It was because the two of them were too similar and this man's ability was too unfathomable that she had no confidence in controlling him.

"Oh? "Is that so?" The corners of Zhai Yuji's lips curled up in a beautiful smile. "How about we make a bet?"

"Unfortunately, I don't want to bet with you." An Xi Nuo's face was cold as she moved away from Yu Guan.

"It doesn't matter if you win or lose, you can still obtain the Phantom Heart." Zhai Yuji said in a slow and unhurried manner.

An Xi Nuo's footsteps slightly paused, her usually cold and arrogant eyes flashed a moment of hesitation.

"Phantom Heart" was a sapphire, famous in the world for its ability to change colors under the moonlight. This sapphire was the last gift her parents had given her on her fifth birthday, because on the same day, her parents had died in a sea of fire and she had lost that precious gift in a state of panic. "Phantom Heart" was a sapphire, famous in the world for its ability to change colors under the moonlight.

"No, thank you." An Xi covered her eyes, and replied with an even colder voice. She hid the sadness and resentment in her eyes.

Then, he stepped on his high heels and left without looking back.

The smile on Zhai Yuzhan's face grew wider as he stared at the cold and aloof back. He finished the glass of red wine in one gulp, his dark and gloomy eyes growing increasingly dark.

He took out his cell phone and quickly sent a text message to An Xi Nuo. Then, he directly told the assistant to prepare the matters related to the cooperation with An Nuo Group.

As for An Xi, she was preparing to go to the locker room on the second floor and change into a new set of formal attire. When she reached the corner of the stairs, she received a message from Zhai Yu.

"It's a small meeting room on the first floor and half the first floor. I've prepared a surprise for you, looking forward to working with you — Zhai Yu Dian."

With a cold expression, An Xi Nuo quickly deleted the message from Zhai Yu Guai. She was about to go upstairs and walk away when she suddenly heard Zhou Jiaming's voice.

"Little demoness, you're thinking of me so quickly?" The voice that was usually gentle, now carried the unfamiliar tone of An Xi Nuo.

Stopping slightly, An Xi frowned and walked towards the small meeting room at the corner of the stairs with uncertainty.

Within the half-opened door, two figures could be vaguely seen intertwining with each other. Although it was dimly lit, it was impossible to determine just who that figure was.

"I hate you, I'm just …" I just want to take one last look at you. " A sweet female voice came from the gap between the doors.

"What's annoying about that? You're the one who likes me!" Zhou Jiaming smiled.

An Xi Nuo slightly frowned, hesitating as to whether she should go closer to confirm.

"Jianming, I love you so much!" Miao Shuya began to loudly voice out her feelings.

Zhou Jiaming replied, "I love you too, Shuya."

An Xi Nuo closed her eyes and was silent for a moment.

Three seconds later, when she opened her eyes again, there was no trace of warmth in her originally indifferent eyes. It was frighteningly cold.

Without any hesitation, An Xi walked step by step towards the source of the sound. Suddenly, she pulled open the half-opened door. Borrowing the light from the corridor, she faced the two shocked faces.

"Xeno!"

"Director An …"

Zhou Jiaming and Miao Shuya cried out in alarm together. Their faces, which still had an emotional look to them, were filled with astonishment.

"All of you, very good." An Xi looked at the two of them coldly. There was no expression on her frozen face.

"Director An … Sorry, I... "I didn't mean to …" Miao Shuya clutched the faraway dress in both hands, crying her heart out.

An Xi Nuo didn't even look at her and directly looked at Zhou Jiaming.

She had never believed in love, nor in men. Because of the An family's rule, one must marry in order to inherit the family's inheritance. That was why she decided to get married.

The reason why they chose Zhou Jiaming was because of his gentle temperament and his pursuit of her for four whole years. The conditions of the Zhou Corporation were also very suitable for the marriage alliance of the An Nuo Corporation and yet, they were still unable to escape from this vulgar farce.

"Xeno, I'm sorry." Zhou Jiaming's eyes were filled with guilt.

"And then?" An Xi Nuo looked at Zhou Jianming, her heart was cold and indifferent. At this moment, she had an indescribable feeling, which made her feel very uncomfortable.

"I really love Shuya, so... You can help us! " "Zhou Jia Ming's eyes were pleading.

His chest inexplicably felt a lump in his throat, but his face still remained calm as he said, "Okay, then we will cancel the engagement. All the cooperation between the An Nuo Group and the Zhou Group will be cancelled, and the Zhou Group will compensate the An Nuo Group for all their losses."

"Compensation?" Zhou Jiaming couldn't help but sneer, "So in your eyes, our relationship can only be bought and sold with a string of numbers, right?"

An Xi Nuo frowned. Her cold face did not reveal any expression, but her pair of indifferent eyes held a trace of sadness. Unfortunately, that sadness was also discovered by Zhou Jiaming.

"Since you did something wrong, you will naturally have to bear the consequences. If we suddenly cancel the engagement, the stock market will definitely be in turmoil. Also, the sudden suspension of the Zhou Group's cooperation will greatly affect the development of the An Nuo Group." An Xi Nuo coldly stated the truth.

On the other hand, Zhou Jiaming felt that An Xi was becoming more and more ruthless: "Am I wrong? What's wrong with me seeking my true love? If the marriage alliance fails, you can only say that you didn't grab onto my heart, so what right do I have to bear the consequences?! "

Zhou Jianming deliberately grabbed Miao Shiya, who was crying quietly by the side. His gentle and delicate face carried a cold and provocative look.

"True love?" An Xi sneered, a hint of a mocking crack appeared on her frozen face: "I hope you can also speak so brazenly on the Zhou Group."

After a long while, he finally replied, "It's better than having ice cubes like you. If it wasn't for the An Nuo Corporation, do you think I would really want to marry you? Don't joke around. Even if you're a Heavenly Immortal, no one would be willing to marry an emotionless ice cube to live with you. "

Miao Shuya, who had been keeping her head down all this time, gripped the lapel of Zhou Jiaming's shirt tightly, avoiding their gazes. Her eyes were filled with resentment, since the An Nuo Corporation had an An Nuo Corporation, no matter how arrogant she was, those men were all crazily chasing after her. As for her, no matter how sweet and beautiful she was, she could only act shamelessly.

An Xi couldn't see the hatred in Miao Shu Ya's eyes. At this moment, she was closely staring at Zhou Jianming's familiar yet unfamiliar eyes. For the first time, she realized that being shameless could really be so disgusting.

Just as she was about to turn around and leave coldly, a group of reporters came from who knows where and suddenly blocked the three of them in the narrow corridor, preventing them from entering or leaving.
