Chapter 4: A Serpent's Heart

Chapter 4: A Serpent's Heart
Wen Jiao paused, and then said, "Xie Zhang and him are on good terms, right? They also say behind his back that he has been cursed in the past two years and has completely changed into a different person!"

Bian Yue didn't say anything.

She couldn't connect Li Siheng's elegant and noble face with the scheming and unscrupulous businessman.

He is a passionate gentleman, who is more suitable to be trapped in the land of pleasure and depression, making countless crazy women die for him.

The wipers quickly moved across the glass, splashing raindrops that were thrown onto the road.

Bian Yue leaned against the window and said nonchalantly: "He did it to make money. No one would call him a dishonest businessman. Everyone would just praise his means."

Wen Jiao stepped hard on the accelerator and looked at Bian Yue angrily, saying impatiently, "You idiot! You're turning green on your head! Why are you still speaking for him?"

Bian Yue pointed ahead and kindly reminded: "Don't look at me, look at the road."

It would take Wen Jiao an hour to drive home, so he kept scolding Bian Yue in her ear for a full hour.

Wen Jiao said, Bian Yue, wake up, Li Siheng didn't just change today, he has changed for a long time, it's you who refuses to admit it.

Wen Jiao added, you don’t have to be sad, I will introduce you to a few men right away. They are not as powerful as Li Siheng, but they are definitely good at coaxing people and knowing how to be affectionate. I guarantee you will be satisfied.

Bian Yue rubbed his forehead without saying a word.

I thought I would have insomnia at night, but unexpectedly I slept very well.

I slept until the next afternoon and was woken up by Wen Jiao.

Wen Jiao threw the red dress worth tens of millions on her bed and urged, "Princess Moon! I won't introduce you to any men today. There's a dinner party tonight. I'll take you there to vent your anger."

Bian Yue half closed her eyes, she had just woken up and her mind was still unclear.

The afternoon sun poured in through the floor-to-ceiling windows, shining on Bian Yue's jade-like skin.

She tidied her hair haphazardly and asked sincerely, "What are you venting?"

"Don't you know? Shen Jinci has returned to China. Xie Zhang held a welcoming banquet for him at Victoria Harbour tonight." Wen Jiao paused, then continued, "Li Siheng will also go, and his female companion this time will be Shi Anan."

Bian Yue didn't listen much further, but when she heard the three words "Shen Jinci", she became absent-minded.

Bian Yue didn't know much about the celebrities and dignitaries in Hong Kong's circle, but who didn't know Shen Jinci?
He was the youngest patriarch of the Shen family in a hundred years.

Bian Yue remembered that when she was 16 years old, the Bian family was destroyed and no one knew about it. All major media and newspapers were reporting on the event that 23-year-old Shen Jinchi became the youngest boss of Lixing Group.

No one in the public media has ever seen Shen Jinci's appearance, and he is mysterious. However, Bian Yue is in the center of power and wealth, so she always hears news about him.

How he used thundering methods in the Lixing Group and how he made those difficult old antiques obey him in just one year, everyone in Lixing was convinced.

Hong Kong used to be dominated by the Shen, Bian and Li families, which formed a three-way balance of power. Later, the Bian family went bankrupt, and the Li and Shen families merged all of the Bian family's businesses, forming a new hedging force.

The difference is that on the Li family's side, Li Siheng is still studying at the age of 18 and has just started working in the family business. No matter how smart he is, his methods are still immature. Shen Jinci has already monopolized the power of the Shen family, and no one will say a word against him.

It is rumored that Shen Jinci is a hypocrite who will do anything to achieve his goal, and his methods are both cruel and clean.

Later, 27-year-old Shen Jinci went to Northern Europe alone. It took him only two years to complete the business expansion in more than a dozen countries, piecing together the last piece of the business puzzle of Lixing Group.

Now, 29-year-old Shen Jinci has firmly sat at the top of Hong Kong, overlooking the world.

He has returned to his country, and the power structure in Hong Kong is about to change drastically.

"As soon as you moved out of the Li family, Li Siheng took Shi Anan out to date. This is clearly a slap in your face!"

Wen Jiao walked up to Bian Yue, bent down, and held her face earnestly, "If Shi Anan shows off tonight, you, the little princess, will make a fool of yourself!"

Bian Yue didn't care whether she made a fool of herself or not. Given Shi Anan's identity, she didn't need to do that.

But
This Shen Jinci, she wanted to meet him. In the high-end VIP lounge of the banquet, Wen Jiao, wearing a shawl, took the tea from PR, and waited for the latter to leave respectfully before looking at Bian Yue with wide eyes.

"You actually want to seduce Shen Jinci? Bian Yue, Shen Jinci is different from Li Siheng and Xie Zhang! He is not a young master, he is a man of power. You want to approach him? You don't even know what he looks like!"

"You misunderstood!" Bian Yue explained helplessly, "Isn't the Bian family's inheritance locked up in a Swiss bank by the Li family? I want to discuss business with Shen Jinci. If he helps me get the money out, I can give him 20%."

Wen Jiao intuitively felt that Shen Jinci might not be interested in this deal.

The Bian family's inheritance is indeed an astronomical figure, but Shen Jinci. According to Xie Zhang, that person is very afraid of trouble.

"Okay, how about we see each other later and give it a try?"

Bian Yue nodded, still unsure: "If it doesn't work, forget it. I'll think of another way."

Wen Jiao had seen the good relationship between Bian Yue and Li Siheng, so she couldn't help but ask, "Bian Yue, Li Siheng wouldn't ignore you. Have you asked him?"

Bian Yue's face was calm as she picked up the lipstick with a dull look and began to draw carefully.

She said, "I would ask anyone but him."

The banquet was held on a cruise ship at Victoria Harbour. When Bian Yue got off the ship, she just happened to hear the faint sound of bells from the clock tower not far away. It was 6pm.

Bian Yue was not in a good mood, so Wen Jiao took her hand and walked towards the cruise ship chattering all the way.

The elevator door opened, and the luxurious and elegant scent of perfume became stronger in the air.

As soon as Wen Jiao and Bian Yue appeared, the concierge at the door walked towards them with a smile, called out their names accurately, and warmly invited them in.

When you open the door of the box, what comes into view are the stills of the flashy and upper-class people in elegant clothes.

The life of decadence and luxury is burned to ashes.

As soon as the two appeared, they were surrounded by a group of rich ladies. It was like the finale of a good show at the zoo.

The Wen family is one of the top celebrities in Hong Kong. The Wen Group monopolizes almost all cruise ship production in Hong Kong and is a top listed group.

And Bian Yue is the richest girl in Hong Kong.

Bian Yue was wearing a red dress; the bright color made her look noble and flamboyant. Just standing there, she was already more beautiful than all the other girls.

A rich girl looked at him with sympathy and flattery, "Bian Yue! Don't be too sad."

The most uncomfortable thing is naturally the grassland above your head.

Bian Yue smiled casually, "I'm fine."

As soon as she finished speaking, Shi Anan had already pushed through the crowd and walked in front of her.

Shi Anan gently held the tall wine glass with her bare hands and smiled gently: "Miss Bian, are you here to see Si Heng?"

Shi Anan was indeed spoiled by Li Siheng and became lawless, but Bian Yue didn't want to add to the joke.

She took Wen Jiao's hand, said goodbye to the other ladies, and left indifferently.

Just as he turned the corner, Shi Anan caught up with him again.

The three of them confronted each other, and Shi Anan smiled even brighter because of her "victory" just now: "Miss Bian wants to see Si Heng, why don't I help you?"

"I'm not here to look for him." Bian Yue said calmly.

Shi Anan became more and more angry. Bian Yue didn't take her seriously at all. She said unwillingly: "Then who can you go to?"
