Quick Wear: The Heirless Boss Wants to Get Close to Her Every Day

Chapter 773 The Capitalist's Daughter vs. the Tough Guy Military Officer (5)

"Heh, then just wait for me to call the disciplinary committee and report you." Shen Shuyi said coldly, "I've kept all the letters we exchanged."

Li Donghai gritted his teeth upon hearing this, staring intently at Shen Shuyi's beautiful face. This two-faced woman was extremely reserved when she was dating him, refusing to even hold his hand. He thought she was some innocent little white rabbit, but she turned out to be a black-hearted and wicked woman!

He's going to be promoted to the rank of battalion commander this year, and if Shen Shuyi causes this trouble, it'll be a huge loss!
He could return the sewing machine and bicycle, but the six thousand yuan had already been mostly spent by his mother and him on bribes and entertaining guests.

His mother was a rural woman who used to be very frugal. It's all Shen Shuyi's fault for spoiling her appetite. She spends money extravagantly and loves to compete with others. I wonder how much she has left now.

Are we really going to have to sell the old house?
His dad would probably get up from the ground and yell at him for being an unfilial son!
"Xiaoyi, I really can't come up with that much money all at once. Can you give me some more time? I swear, I will definitely pay you back as soon as I have the money."

"Got money? Won't you need to spend money to marry Xiao Shu?"

"Raising a child is free?"

"With your salary of just over a hundred yuan, it will be ages before you pay me back."

"Li Donghai, you're not trying to renege on your debt, are you?"

Seeing the contempt in her eyes, Li Donghai became enraged. "Then what do you want? I don't have that much money right now!"

Shen Shuyi snorted, "I don't care if you sell the house or borrow money. I'm only giving you three days. If I don't get the money after three days, those letters of complaint will be sent to the Discipline Inspection Commission office!"

Li Donghai was furious at her heartless attitude. "Fine, Shen Shuyi, you're very good."

"Don't regret it after the breakup!"

Shen Shuyi turned and left, waving behind her, "Only those who can't pay back the money in three days should regret it."

She hadn't taken more than a few steps when she heard an emergency notification from the system.

[Dear host, Yan Zheng is nearby. He may have even overheard your conversation with Li Donghai!]
Shen Shuyi only asked, "Does he recognize me?"

[He might not recognize you; after all, even though you're engaged, you haven't seen each other much. He's been stationed at his post and only recently returned home to visit relatives.]
Shen Shuyi nodded, "It's understandable that they can't recognize him, because Yan Zheng's face was also very blurry in the original owner's memories."

System 66 thoughtfully provided guidance to Shen Shuyi, with an invisible red thread leading her along it; following the red thread would lead her to the destination.

Following the red line, Shen Shuyi spotted Yan Zheng at a glance.

The first thing you see is a tall figure. The man has a buzz cut, deep-set features, a straight nose, and eyes that are intimidating even without anger.

A white shirt and trousers, paired with a belt, accentuated his broad shoulders, narrow waist, and long legs, making him extremely attractive.
Shen Shuyi subconsciously glanced at the man again.

"66, he looks so cool and brave."

Shen Shuyi walked in his direction, deliberately brushing past him.

When Yan Zheng was bumped, she quickly said, "Sorry."

"Comrade, did I hurt you?"

Yan Zheng met the girl's bright eyes. Wasn't this the same woman who had been arguing so fiercely just moments before?

"fine."

"Be more careful when you walk in the future."

Shen Shuyi felt that the sunlight was completely blocked by the man in front of her. He was too tall and imposing. "Okay, thank you for the reminder, comrade."

Yan Zheng nodded slightly and turned to leave.

This is just a small episode.

He never expected to see this straightforward young girl again the next day.

At that time, Yan Zheng and his parents brought gifts to the Shen family's gate. They immediately saw a girl in a pink dress sitting in front of the sofa. The sunlight from the window shone in, making her face and forearm skin glow white.

When the girl looked up, her bright and beautiful eyes startled Yan Zheng, who awkwardly looked away.

Seeing their son's sullen expression, the strict parents couldn't help but sigh. It seemed this marriage proposal had to be called off; they didn't want to waste the good girl's time. The two families exchanged greetings and pleasantries before getting down to business.

In the hall, Shen Shuyi sat next to the Shen couple, while Shen Yuwei had disappeared, seemingly afraid that Yan Zheng would take a liking to her and pester her.

Shen Shuyi greeted her parents softly, "Hello, Uncle and Aunt."

"Oh, so you must be Xiaoyi. It's been a long time since I've seen you. You've grown even more beautiful," said Yan's mother, Chi Yue, with a smile, and then asked Yan Zheng to come over and greet her.

"Xiao Yi, this is Yan Zheng. He is currently stationed on the island and is on leave to visit his family."

Shen Shuyi looked up at Yan Zheng and said, "Hello, Comrade Yan."

"Hello, Comrade Shen." Yan Zheng spoke in a formal and methodical manner, but fortunately his voice was magnetic and pleasant to the ear.

"The main reason I've come here is to discuss the marriage between the two children," said Yan Tianyou, the father.

Shen Hui nodded to indicate that he had no objection. "The children are all grown up and it is indeed time for them to get married. Our Shen family has no objection to this marriage."

The Yan couple were taken aback. They had thought the Shen family would at least hesitate, since they knew their son had been wounded on the battlefield.
Yan Tianyou said, "But A-Zheng was injured, which might delay Xiao Yi's work."

Chi Yue chimed in, "We've come here mainly to dissolve the engagement."

Now it was the Shen family's turn to be dumbfounded.

So all their planning these past few days was just a joke, a complete blunder?
The Yan family took the initiative to break off the engagement, so why are they still worried?

Before they could answer, the Yan family spoke again.

“It was our son, Azheng, who delayed Xiaoyi. We will do our best to make amends.” Yan Tianyou handed a gift list to the Shen couple.

Shen Shuyi took the gift list and handed it to Yan Zheng.

She spoke with righteous indignation, “Comrade Yan was wounded while protecting the country. Battlefield fire is merciless. He is a great hero of our nation. How can I betray my promise because of his injury?”

The Shen couple were exasperated upon hearing this. They could have easily received compensation, so what was this brat up to?
The Yan family is wealthy and influential; this compensation will certainly be substantial!

Just as Shen Hui was about to speak, Shi Lan quickly tugged at his sleeve and whispered in his ear, "The dowry is even more. What if she doesn't marry and goes to Hong Kong with him? Yuwei will be very heartbroken!"

Shen Hui coughed lightly, "We've already discussed it, so let's listen to the young people's opinion on this matter."

The Yan couple were greatly shocked and felt that the Shen family was really nice, especially the little girl.

But they can't take advantage of a kind-hearted young girl; this is a lifelong matter.

The Yan family wanted to try to persuade her further, but then they saw the little girl stand up and speak to their dull-witted son.

"Comrade Yan, it's been a long time since you've been back to Shanghai, hasn't it?"

"Yes, it's been about two years."

Yan Zheng hadn't recovered from what she had just said when she heard her continue, saying that she was a great hero.

"A movie theater opened on the northeast corner of Huaihai Road. The building is very impressive."

"Shall we go for a walk over there?"

"Let's also talk about our marriage."

Having said all that, Yan Zheng had no reason to refuse and could only continue the conversation on the way.

He didn't want to ruin the young girl's life.
