The Malevolent Female Villain Turns Out to Be Me
Chapter 111

The banquet had invited many big and small company heads from Hai City. Except for the older generation who knew that the Sean in front of them was the former Xiao Yongze, the younger generation of entrepreneurs really didn't understand.

However, people had all heard about Xiao Wenyao's commotion at the entrance, so even if they knew Sean was Xiao Yongze, they could basically guess that there was some family grudge behind Xiao Yongze's family leaving Hua Country back then.

But they were not meddlesome people. Xiao Wenyao had a poor reputation in this circle, and no one was willing to deal with him. Some people still cooperated with the Xiao family just out of respect for the former Xiao Yongze, not wanting to see the Xiao family decline. Otherwise, with Xiao Wenyao's way of doing things, the Xiao family would have gone bankrupt long ago.

Now that Xiao Yongze has returned, the Xiao family will probably be beaten by X International in the next few months, and then undergo a complete transformation. As for them, they'll just be honest onlookers.

"Old Xiao, where's your sister-in-law? I don't see her," Shi Ze asked questioningly.

Thinking of his wife, a gentle look flashed across Xiao Yongze's eyes. "Xi Xi is abroad taking care of some matters with our son, and will be back in a few days."

Shi Ze nodded and changed the topic.

"Old Xiao, you're wasting so much by bidding for all those projects just to get back at Xiao Wenyao."

Ye Junli said, "You don't understand. Old Xiao is learning the cat-and-mouse game - after catching the mouse, he'll tease it a few times, making the mouse unable to live or die, and when the mouse gives up struggling, at its most desperate moment, he'll eat it bite by bite!"

Shi Ze couldn't help but make a clicking sound. "So you know Xiao Wenyao will bid on all the clothing and home textile projects?"

The usually silent He Yuanhao spoke up, "Xiao Wenyao has high aspirations but low abilities, and he's long wanted the company to turn things around. This time he has the chance, he'll definitely bid a lot. Because in his view, the probability of winning out of 200-plus projects will be greater than just bidding on one or two projects."

Xiao Yongze sneered, "Exactly, it's because I understand this about him that I'm using this method - first giving him hope, then letting him experience despair."

Just like when he and Xi Xi boarded the plane to leave Hua Country, they were filled with the hope of finally seeing their daughter again, which then turned into the despair of never seeing her again...

How hard those years have been, no one knows.

When they first went abroad, without money or status, they couldn't find any jobs to earn money. Xiao Yongze took his wife to work as odd-job laborers in a car repair shop with little business, thinking about how to get his revenge.

Later, the shop owner always wanted to make big money, and Xiao Yongze started to strategize for him.

So they secretly helped the shop owner start a business while fending off the people monitoring them.

With his amazing business acumen, Xiao Yongze helped the shop owner build up the company in just a year and a half.

The boss had money and, to repay Xiao Yongze, had the people monitoring them eliminated.

At that time, the Xiao couple could have returned to Hua Country, but without the power to overthrow Xiao Wenyao, they chose to stay and build their own business empire. When the timing was right, they could return to Hua Country for revenge.

With the boss's support, he founded the X Clothing Company, while pretending to report the situation here to the people monitoring them and Xiao Wenyao.

Later, the company grew bigger and bigger, and expanded its industries, so it was renamed from X Clothing Company to X Business Group, and later its businesses spread worldwide, becoming the current X International.

It all seemed so simple and smooth, but living as foreigners in a strange land, they were often subjected to racial discrimination and insults from the locals.

All this was thanks to Xiao Wenyao.

Now he had returned.

...

With the upcoming exams, the learning atmosphere in Hai City University's campus has been unusually heavy lately.

Ye Jinmeng has already finished several courses, and when she's free, she just sits in the dorm playing, or rather, reviewing.

When Xu Wanwan returned to the dorm after her classes, she saw Ye Jinmeng sitting at the desk with textbooks, holding a phone in her hand and watching fitness videos, giggling stupidly without even noticing Xu Wanwan's arrival.

Xu Wanwan didn't "startle the snake," quietly walking up behind Ye Jinmeng to see what the girl was looking at.

Sure enough, the girl was watching videos of a fitness coach!

No wonder Ye Jinmeng was smiling and laughing while watching, this was just her cup of tea.

Xu Wanwan took out her phone, opened the video recorder, and leaned in to Ye Jinmeng's ear, saying in a sinister tone, "Aren't you afraid your book-brother Shuning will be jealous?"

This voice startled Ye Jinmeng, and she almost dropped her phone on the desk. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ NʘvᴇlFire.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

"Ah!" Ye Jinmeng's heart was pounding as she turned around to see Xu Wanwan bent over laughing loudly. Ye Jinmeng puffed up her cheeks and grumbled, "Wanwan! You came back so quietly, how could you scare me like that! That's not nice at all!"

"Ai, you can't blame me for that. I came back with plenty of noise, but someone was too absorbed in watching her little coach to notice," Xu Wanwan said, glancing at her phone. "I wonder if I should send this video to Shuning, I bet he'll come rushing over to spank a certain someone's butt!"

Ye Jinmeng: !!!

"Wanwan, you actually recorded me in secret!" She even started to get upset, "Wuwuwu, I knew it, now that Wanwan has Ao, she doesn't love me anymore. I'm so pitiful!"

Xu Wanwan: ...

"Alright, alright, I'll just delete it then."

"Wanwan, you're the best, mwah mwah mwah!" Ye Jinmeng puckered her lips and blew Xu Wanwan some air kisses, which Xu Wanwan looked at in disgust.

"You'd better save those kisses for Shuning. I don't want to be Shuning's rival."

"But I really do like Shuning's physique the best!"

Xu Wanwan: ...

Ye Jinmeng quickly changed the topic, "Wanwan, how are you spending the three-day New Year's break? Are you coming home with me?"

Xu Wanwan didn't say anything, but her face turned red.

Ye Jinmeng didn't understand why, she just asked if Xu Wanwan wanted to come to her house, so why did her face turn red?

Xu Wanwan lightly cleared her throat, "Well, Meng Meng, I'm not going to your house for New Year's."

"Then where are you going?"

Xu Wanwan's face turned even redder. "Ao, Ao said he wants to take me to the He family to formally meet his parents."

Ye Jinmeng's eyes lit up instantly. She's going to meet the in-laws officially now!

"Wanwan, you're going to meet the parents now, ah ah ah, I'm so excited for you!"

Xu Wanwan chuckled, "What are you so excited about, it's me going to meet the parents."

"Well, I'm the one who witnessed you two getting together, so I have that 'my CP is real' excitement!"

She then stepped forward and hugged Xu Wanwan's waist. "Wanwan, you have to be happy!"

Xu Wanwan was very moved, patting Ye Jinmeng's back, "Okay, I'll definitely be happy. We'll all be happy!"

"Then Wanwan, let's get married together!"

Xu Wanwan: ???

"Oh, I mean let's get married on the same day, leave together!"

Xu Wanwan smiled, "You little girl, we're still far from getting married. We have to wait until after graduating from university at least."

Ye Jinmeng thought for a moment, "That's true, we're only eighteen, so young. What's the rush to get married? I'll reconsider it in ten years!"

Shi Shuning: ???
