Arranged marriage, love blossoms; a fiercely devoted soldier dotes on her alone.

"Honey, if Grandpa really gives all my shares to both of us, what will happen to him in the future?"

Qin Huanhuan leaned close to Xiao Zhan's ear and whispered a question.

Even now, Qin Huanhuan still can't believe it's true. She now owns 11% of the Xiao Group's shares, making her a billionaire and the second-largest shareholder after Xiao Zhan.

Xiao Zhan: "What else can we do but retire and enjoy our old age?"

Qin Huanhuan: "It feels like I'm dreaming."

Xiao Zhan said mischievously, "Pinch your thigh yourself."

Qin Huanhuan didn't react for a moment and asked, "Why would I pinch your thigh?"

Xiao Zhan: "I'll tell you after you pinch me, you have to pinch me really hard."

Qin Huanhuan pinched her thigh hard as if her brain had gone blank.

"Hiss..."

She gasped in pain, a sharp, intense ache instantly coursing through her body…

Qin Huanhuan was in so much pain that tears were almost streaming down her face. She said, "Honey, I pinched you. What's wrong?"

Xiao Zhan chuckled softly, "Do you now believe that everything happening before your eyes is real?"

Qin Huanhuan suddenly realized that she had been tricked by Xiao Zhan, and she said angrily, "Husband, you dare to play me? You just wait and see how I punish you."

Xiao Zhan smiled dismissively.

The meeting ended, and all the shareholders came over to congratulate Xiao Zhan on his election as chairman.

Xiao Zhan shook hands with each of the shareholders to greet them.

At this moment, Xiao Huai'an said, "My old friends, I have arranged the food and drinks. Tonight, let's drink until we drop."

The shareholders echoed, "We'll drink until we drop with the old chairman tonight!"

Most of these shareholders are Xiao Huai'an's old subordinates or old friends. Over the years, they have gone through thick and thin together and have forged a deep friendship.

Xiao Huai'an looked at Xiao Zhan and Qin Huanhuan and said, "If you two have nothing else to do, you should stay here too. We'll need the support of these shareholders for your work in the future."

Xiao Zhan was about to speak.

"Beep beep beep..."

Qin Huanhuan's phone suddenly rang...

Seeing that it was Yuan Fangfang calling, Qin Huanhuan whispered to Xiao Zhan, "It's Yuan Fangfang calling, should we answer it?"

Xiao Zhan pursed his lips and said, "Why not answer? There must be a reason why she wants to chat with me. Just tell her that I agree to see her."

So Qin Huanhuan went to the side to answer the phone.

Xiao Zhan said to Xiao Huai'an and the shareholders, "Dear senior shareholders, I originally wanted to toast you all, but I have very important matters to attend to right now. I'll have to postpone this toast for now, and I'll definitely make it up to you next time."

Xiao Huai'an knew about Yuan Fangfang's situation, so he said, "Xiao Zhan, if you have something to do, go ahead and do it. I'll stay and drink with these old brothers until we're completely drunk tonight."

"Hahaha, I used to be so burdened with a heavy load that I didn't dare to get drunk for fear of messing things up. Now I've shed all that burden and feel as light as a feather. Hahaha, let's go to a restaurant for a drink."

"Let's go, let's have a couple of drinks with the old commander tonight."

"Yes, it's been many years since I drank with the old commander. He used to be a legendary drinker who could drink a thousand cups without getting drunk."

"Tch, back when we were fighting the Sino-Vietnamese War, there was a time when we were in a foxhole and had been without food for three days. When we launched the general offensive, everyone's stomachs were growling with hunger. Finally, we found a case of Moutai in a shell crater. Everyone took half a bottle and chug it down. Then, fueled by the alcohol, we took Xiaoyue Mountain in one go and annihilated the defending troops. We suffered no casualties. The higher-ups found it strange and sent people down to investigate. The old commander told the investigation team to give them two cases of Moutai before telling them the truth, but the investigation team didn't believe it. They said the old commander tricked them into drinking the liquor."

"Hahaha."

Everyone laughed…

With a wave of his hand and full of heroic spirit, Xiao Huai'an said, "A true hero doesn't dwell on past glories. Let's go have a drink."

Xiao Zhan pulled Uncle Yu aside and said, "Uncle Yu, keep an eye on the old man. He's too old to drink too much; it's easy for him to get into trouble."

Yu Bo agreed, "Xiao Zhan, I understand. I will take good care of the old commander. Don't worry."

Xiao Zhan added, "Uncle Yu, don't take what we talked about today to heart. It was just a temporary measure for me. Don't worry, with me here, no one will be able to touch a hair on your head."

Uncle Yu smiled憨厚ly and said, "Young Master, don't worry, I'm fine. I've lived to be over seventy, which is more than enough."

At this moment, Qin Huanhuan walked over and said, "Honey, I've made an appointment with President Yuan, it'll be at...."

Xiao Zhan immediately interrupted Qin Huanhuan's last words and said, "Okay, let's go now."

"Uncle Yu, we're leaving."

Without a word, Xiao Zhan pulled Qin Huanhuan outside...

behind,

Yu Bo's eyes flickered a few times, a sinister and fierce glint flashing deep within them...

As Qin Huanhuan walked, she asked, "Honey, what did you mean just now? Why didn't you let me finish what I was saying?"

Xiao Zhan pulled her along quickly toward the door and said in a low voice, "It's always better to be careful with some things."

Qin Huanhuan blinked, completely bewildered, and said, "We're in the Xiao family compound, and there's no one else around. Does Uncle Yu still need to be on guard?"

Xiao Zhan stopped and said, "Why are you talking so much? Some things aren't what you think. Always be careful."

Qin Huanhuan was even more confused and asked, puzzled, "Xiao Zhan, what do you mean? Do I have to be extra careful when I talk to your family?"

Xiao Zhan looked at Qin Huanhuan and said earnestly, "Some things are not as they seem. In short, one should not have the heart to harm others, but one should not be without the heart to guard against others."

Qin Huanhuan was completely dumbfounded when she heard that…

Xiao Zhan pulled her into the car and asked, "Where did Yuan Fangfang ask us to meet?"

Qin Huanhuan looked at Shen Jun sitting in the driver's seat.

Xiao Zhan: "Shen Jun can be trusted."

Qin Huanhuan then said, "President Yuan asked you to meet her in her hotel room."

Xiao Zhan paused for a moment, then asked, "Why meet in her room instead of somewhere else?"

Qin Huanhuan said irritably, "Go ask her yourself."

Xiao Zhan knew that Qin Huanhuan was still angry about what happened with Uncle Yu, but he couldn't tell Qin Huanhuan about Uncle Yu right now. So he said to Shen Jun, "Go to the hotel where Yuan Fangfang is staying. When we get to the hotel, you drive away immediately after we get out of the car. Wait for my call and then drive the car back to pick us up."

Shen Jun understood and replied, "Understood, Instructor."

Qin Huanhuan said, "Yuan Fangfang wants to talk to you about something. Is it appropriate for me to be here?"

Xiao Zhan: "What's inappropriate about you being my wife? There are no secrets between us."

Qin Huanhuan rolled her eyes at Xiao Zhan and muttered, "You still have the nerve to say there are no secrets between us? Then why didn't you tell me about Uncle Yu?"

Xiao Zhan looked at Qin Huanhuan seriously and said, "Now is not the time. I will tell you later."

After saying that, Xiao Zhan hugged Qin Huanhuan and said, "You must know that the most unpredictable thing in the world is the human heart, and people are most susceptible to temptation. Money, women, power, these can all turn people from good to evil, so we must be careful in everything we do."

After ten minutes,

Xiao Zhan and Qin Huanhuan entered Yuan Fangfang's hotel room.

Yuan Fangfang wasn't surprised to see Qin Huanhuan come with Xiao Zhan. She calmly said, "Young Master Xiao, I've heard so much about you. Please have a seat."

Xiao Zhan, too lazy to be polite, asked directly, "President Yuan, you can say what you have to say now."
