Chapter 166 You must be praising me

Zhuozheng Group
The afternoon sun was blazing, and standing on the rooftop, the intense sunlight made it hard to open one's eyes.

With this temperature and this level of UV radiation, Wen Jiani was worried that she might get a tan.

Fortunately, Luo Zhi rushed over. In Luo Zhi's view, Wen Jiani was standing on the edge of the rooftop, looking very scary.

"Jiani, come down quickly! It's dangerous for you to be standing so high!"

Luo Zhi wanted to go over and pull Wen Jiani down, but he was afraid that if he went over, Wen Jiani would step back and that would be the end of it.

He could only stand anxiously not far from Wen Jiani, trying to find an opportunity to slowly approach her.

"Mr. Luo, I'm pregnant with your child. If you don't take responsibility for me, I'll jump off this building!"

It was so hot that Wen Jiani didn't want to say a word of preamble; she just wanted to finish her business quickly and get back to the office building to enjoy the air conditioning.

"Can't we talk this over properly? You know I have a wife and kids."

In Luo Zhi's eyes, his relationship with Wen Jiani was at most a one-night stand. Even if he had some feelings for Wen Jiani, it was not to the point of abandoning his wife and children for her.

Luo Zhi mentioned his wife, and Wen Jiani continued precisely, "But your wife has already said she will divorce you. She said she's been tired of living with you for a long time."

"So, you really showed her that report?" Luo Zhi frowned slightly; the sweltering heat was wearing thin his patience.

"It's me. I have to think about myself and the baby in my belly, right? I genuinely like you and want to be with you..."

Wen Jiani deliberately stirred up her emotions; she even cried in front of Luo Zhi again.

Luo Zhi couldn't stand seeing women cry in front of him, so his voice softened considerably, "Come down first..."

"No! I just like you and want to be with you openly and legitimately. I don't mind if you give all your assets to your wife and children, I just want you..."

Wen Jianni understood the situation. Luo Zhi, a man who had worked his way up to his current position, would not be threatened by a woman. She could only resort to a softer approach.

What the person in front of him said actually made Luo Zhi a little tempted. It wasn't impossible for him to have a young and beautiful woman as his wife.

Seeing that Luo Zhi remained silent, Wen Jianni continued, "President Luo, if you don't want me, I really don't know what the point of living is. The only reason I'm still staying at the company is because that's the only way I can see you."

This man has always been unable to resist the charms of beautiful women, let alone such a deeply affectionate one.

Luo Zhi quickly replied, "I didn't say I didn't want you."

"Then you should divorce your wife. I know your parents want a grandson. Even if this child isn't a son, I'm young, and I'll make sure they get what they want."

Wen Jiani's words further strengthened Luo Zhi's bargaining power to divorce her. She wanted to brainwash Luo Zhi, saying that Luo Zhi's wife had always been unwilling to have a second child, but she was willing to fulfill their family's wish to have a son for Luo Zhi's sake.

"Is that really what you think?" Luo Zhi finally understood why Wen Jiani was so bold as to ask him to divorce his wife. It turned out that Wen Jiani had researched their family's situation.

Seeing that Luo Zhi was clearly wavering, Wen Jianni quickly nodded, "Yes, I'm willing to do anything as long as I can be with you."

"Okay, I promise you."

The divorce agreement was already at home; signing my name would only take a few seconds.

Wen Jiani was very satisfied to receive Luo Zhihui's reply that he would divorce her. She couldn't help but feel even more affection for her father. Fortunately, her father hadn't been sexist and had cared for his wife, not wanting her to suffer the pain of childbirth again.

In those days, Wen Jiani was a rare only child, and she was showered with love and affection from childhood to adulthood.

The Luo family received news that Wen Jiani had won over Luo Zhi, and Luo Zhi's wife was more heartbroken than happy.

She had already guessed that Luo Zhi would agree to divorce her, but when she learned that Luo Zhi had agreed to the divorce because Wen Jiani had promised to give him a son, the woman still felt very sad.

It turns out that all the years of companionship she and her daughter had provided couldn't compare to the absence of her son, who wasn't even around for a second.

It turns out that in Luo Zhi's eyes, even though her precious daughter was her own flesh and blood, she could be completely replaced.

The woman's resolve to divorce Luo Zhi and ruin him only strengthened further.

As evening fell, the sun slowly sank, and the sky was gently tinged with an orange-red hue. Even the tallest buildings were bathed in a golden glow.

Inside the restaurant, several home-style dishes were laid out on the table, and Mingwei and Pei Ming sat on either side of the table eating their dinner.

"Did Jia Ni tell you? She completely drove a wedge between Luo Zhi and his wife today."

After Mingwei finished speaking, she put a shrimp into her mouth.

"She said that on the surface she was using the promise of having a son to seduce Luo Zhi, but in reality she was using the son to sow discord between Luo Zhi's wife and her, making Luo Zhi's wife think that she and her daughter were far less important than a son who did not yet exist."

Pei Ming spoke in a calm tone, eating as he spoke.

Mingwei chuckled lightly, "Luo Zhi's wife might have hesitated at first, but after today's provocation, she will definitely no longer have any feelings for Luo Zhi as a wife."

"I want to tell you the truth. I just don't know if you'll like to hear it," Pei Ming said, pausing his eating.

Mingwei continued eating her food. "You know I don't like hearing this, so please don't say anything."

"If I don't say it, I feel uncomfortable keeping it to myself."

"Then tell me, tell me and I'll see if I beat you to death."

Since Mingwei had already asked him to speak, Pei Ming said it directly: "I think you should learn more from Jia Ni. Although you are a few years older than her, her boldness and strategy are superior to yours."

Pei Ming thought Ming Wei would be angry after he said that, but to his surprise, Ming Wei remained remarkably calm.

"Sigh, Xu Ling once said that there wasn't a single easy person in your Pei family. Did your whole family have this kind of powerful gene from birth?"

Upon hearing Ming Wei say that the Pei family has strong genes, Pei Ming couldn't help but smile. "You're a member of the Pei family now, so you have to study hard and not fall behind."

Mingwei also rolled her eyes at Pei Ming, "One who stays near vermilion gets stained red, and one who stays near ink gets stained black. With you, this dark ink, by my side, it would be hard for me not to get stained."

"I don't understand for a moment. Were you praising me or insulting me?" Pei Ming continued to smile. Ming Wei had just tacitly acknowledged that she was now a member of the Pei family, which made Pei Ming quite happy.

"Aren't you supposed to be very smart? Whether I praise you or insult you is entirely up to you."

"I don't care, you're definitely praising me."

As Pei Ming spoke, he picked up a piece of fish that Ming Weiyi liked and brought it to her lips.
