Did you lose?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLose? No way. Big brother, don\u2019t undermine me like that. When I\u2019ve gone up against Zhan Wei, I honestly haven\u2019t lost that many times.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It was about even.<br \/>\nOkay\u2014maybe slightly more than half.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI even slapped him across the face,\u201d<br \/>\nLan Ruoruo muttered. \u201cI\u2019ve disliked him for so long. I\u2019ve been wanting to throw him in a sack and beat him up for years.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou actually did it? Sounds like you were just angry and embarrassed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lan Ruoruo: \u201c\u2026Brother, whose side are you on? I\u2019m your sister! Zhan Wei is our long-time rival. Yangtai\u2019s business is booming\u2014they\u2019ve even opened a new branch.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cZhan Wei\u2019s capabilities shouldn\u2019t be underestimated.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI never have. We\u2019ve been rivals for years, and I\u2019ve always seen him as a worthy opponent.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lan Dongxiao nodded. \u201cThe market\u2019s getting tougher, and even successful companies take hits. Yangtai has grown under Zhan Wei\u2019s leadership, but they\u2019re not immune to losses. Everyone\u2019s looking to adapt and transform.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMaybe we won\u2019t be competing forever.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He didn\u2019t want to end up as Zhan Wei\u2019s colleague\u2014it would mean constant rivalry with a formidable opponent.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s better to stand out independently than to always be locked in competition.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s better to stand out on your own than to constantly face intense competition.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe cut my beard, and I was furious\u2014I wanted to skin him alive. Then I saw him drinking coffee with a young woman, and I acted out a scene straight from a TV drama. I used the moment to stir up trouble and ended up slapping him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAfter that slap, I felt amazing\u2014physically and emotionally. Honestly, I\u2019ve wanted to hit him for a long time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lan Dongxiao asked, \u201c\u2026Did your hand hurt?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt stung a bit at the time, but it\u2019s fine now. I iced his face and, since my hand was sore from the hit, I iced that too. It doesn\u2019t hurt anymore.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lan Dongxiao chuckled. \u201cYou slapped him, then helped him with the swelling? Why\u2019d you even hit him? Were you that bored?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lan Ruoruo pouted. \u201cDo you think I wanted to put a cold compress on him? He said he\u2019d call the police, and I panicked. So I had to apologize, help him with the swelling, and even promised to treat him to a meal in a couple of days.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe was having coffee with a young woman? Who was she? He\u2019s been in Yangcheng for five or six years, and he\u2019s kept a clean record\u2014no scandals, no affairs, and he\u2019s rejected every woman who\u2019s tried to pursue him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCould it be that he has\u2026 unusual tastes? Maybe he likes married women?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt first, I thought the same\u2014either he was secretly married or liked someone else\u2019s wife. But it turns out she was his sister-in-law. She brought her two kids here for summer vacation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lan Dongxiao said, \u201cSo it was his sister-in-law. I told you\u2014he\u2019s not the type to get involved with just anyone.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He quietly suspected that Zhan Wei had feelings for his sister.<\/p>\n<p>But neither of them seemed to realize it.<\/p>\n<p>They had been locked in conflict for so many years, seeing each other as sworn enemies. If there were romantic feelings between them, they wouldn\u2019t be obvious.<\/p>\n<p>Despite their rivalry in the same industry, Lan Dongxiao thought Zhan Wei and his sister were an ideal match.<\/p>\n<p>A talented man and a beautiful woman\u2014both strong and capable.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s how he felt, but he was never sure enough to say it out loud.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fpm_end\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 In the past, whenever my younger sister took business away from Zhan Wei, he would sometimes show up at [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[20],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-17899","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-married-at-first-sight"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17899","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=17899"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17899\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17899"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=17899"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=17899"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
