Deliberately Approaching-Chapter 570 - 532 Sending a Dowry

"Why is there a call at this time?"

A bad feeling suddenly surged into his heart, and Li Zishen quickly picked up his phone and pressed the answer key.

"Brother Shen, too late, the person has escaped." A low voice from Du Feng came through the phone, carrying a trace of anger and regret, "But the communication devices and map used for contact were all in his car. Based on the situation we’ve got so far, the lady’s body has been dealt with, and there are photos and recordings on the phone."

"Send them all to me."

"Yes."

"Slow down on everything you’re handling... and head to Country Y immediately, without alerting anyone."

Du Feng immediately perked up with utmost attention.

"Brother Shen, you mean..."

"Make it clean and thorough, understood?"

"Understood, you can count on me, Brother Shen."

After hanging up the phone, Li Zishen clenched his teeth as he looked through the photos and videos sent by Du Feng. He stopped the recording after just ten seconds.

Two screams, like countless blades, pierced his heart, causing him such pain that he couldn’t breathe.

Li Wanshan!

I’ll make you lose everything, an eye for an eye!

Mom, I’m sorry!

Rest assured, you will have a grandson.

What Li Zishen didn’t know was that those so-called communication devices and the map were deliberately left for Du Feng by Leng Lingxiao’s orders.

...

Before long, it was half-past twelve in the afternoon.

Just as Wang Jinhui had predicted, the temperature had risen and the day was mild and sunny.

Looks like tomorrow will be great weather too!

According to Huang City’s customs, Tang Xiaowan’s dowry must be sent to the Leng Family the day before the wedding, and all the items included in the dowry, as well as the various vehicles and equipment used to transport it, must also be adorned with red silk cloth.

At this moment, the servants at Nanfeng Mansion were busy moving the dowry into the cars under the direction of the butler, Li Fugui.

Everything, both people and items, were in even numbers.

"My goodness, we agreed to keep it simple, a mere gesture would do, yet this is so elaborate!"

"But it provides good material for the reporters."

"Ah, what a headache, so many cars in such grand procession, aren’t we afraid of being targeted?"

"Ptui, ptui, ptui, wishing good fortune and great luck!"

While Tang Xiaowan was leaning on the balustrade of the terrace, observing and lamenting, Wang Junchen, who stood not far behind her, already had moist eyes.

His beloved daughter was marrying so soon; she was supposed to wait until after she graduated from college.

Leng Lingxiao is really lucky!

Ten years older than Tangtang, a whole decade. Well, never mind, it’s good for a man to be older, he will be more caring.

If anyone dares to upset Tangtang, I’ll wipe them out.

"Dad, what are you sneaking around for?" Tang Xiaowan suddenly turned around, her face full of suspicion.

This call of "dad" caught Wang Junchen off guard, so nervous that the tears he had been holding back finally spilled over.

He quickly pretended to stroke his whiskers to secretly wipe them away.

Dad, how sweet it sounds!

It shows how much she admires me!

Just as Wang Junchen cleared his throat, ready to express his fatherly love, Cheng Shi suddenly came running over, his right hand holding a phone.

"Miss, there’s a message for you."

Wang Junchen slightly turned his head away, responding grumpily, "Who’s it from, Li Zishen?"

"Yes, it came to my phone."

He just knew it was Li Zishen.

He was well aware of the little games men play; it’s just to cause trouble for Leng Lingxiao.

"Just delete it, it’s not even worth reporting."

Cheng Shi quickly looked at Tang Xiaowan.

With just one command from her, he would delete it immediately.

"It’s for me?" Tang Xiaowan bit her lower lip and frowned towards the phone, "What did he send?"

"Let’s have Cheng Shi read it to you."

Wang Junchen smiled at Cheng Shi; he decided to listen to how Li Zishen was planning to cause trouble for Leng Lingxiao, guessing it was probably about sending some resources.

"Miss?" Cheng Shi asked with a frown.

Tang Xiaowan chuckled, "Read it."

"Okay, a total of... two messages."

"Xiao Wan, you’re actually only interested in Chi Sea, right? Consider selling Hai Sheng to me for 2 billion. Just imagine, if you put all your effort and funds into Chi Sea, how would it be? I believe you’d do even better!"

"If you’ve considered it, you can find me anytime tomorrow. I just happen to have lawyers in Huang City, but of course, a few days later is also fine. You decide the time."

After hearing this, Tang Xiaowan was instantly fuming, wishing she could call him and berate him fiercely.

Is this an acquisition?

It’s clearly an attempt to sow discord, to undermine us while expanding his own influence.

Please, do you think I’m stupid?

"Really lavish, 2 billion?" Wang Junchen was shocked that Li Zishen had offered ten times the acquisition price.

"Pfft, who cares, no good intentions!"

Although Tang Xiaowan seemed to grit her teeth when she spoke, deep down, she was still somewhat shaken.

billion! That’s not a small amount!

But she had principles and couldn’t just give up on Hai Sheng, which was just getting on the right track, because of the alluringly high offer. It would let down many people.

"Have you decided?" Wang Junchen looked intently at his daughter with a face that said he was just there for the drama, "No regrets?"

Tang Xiaowan nodded firmly.

So, under Wang Junchen’s suggestively watchful eyes, Cheng Shi not only deleted all the messages but also blacklisted Li Zishen’s mobile number.

...

At the same time, the Leng Family was also busy with everyone looking joyfully happy. The already impressive main building was decorated even more lavishly.

Madam Leng handed out red envelopes to everyone.

She was too excited, unable to contain her joy.

"Remember, from now on, address her as the young mistress. You can’t call her Lady Tang anymore."

Everyone answered in unison, "Yes."

"Good, I appreciate all your hard work. Now, go on with your tasks."

A few minutes later, Shen Yiming drove over, not for any other reason but to witness the grandeur of the dowry delivery. Li Ruonan, suffering from morning sickness, stayed at the Shen Family home.

There was still one hour before they would receive the dowry.

"Hey, where have all the elders gone?"

"They’re in the study, practicing in advance. They’re afraid my dad will get nervous and say the wrong thing."

"Can’t be that bad."

"Actually, I’m a bit nervous too."

With that, Leng Lingxiao took a deep breath.

"What do you think Wang Jinhui will give that girl... as a dowry?" Shen Yiming asked curiously.

"Trying to rob someone?"

"You know I’m just curious."

Shen Yiming was ignorant of the fact that Tang Xiaowan was Wang Jinhui’s biological granddaughter, but he reasoned that since Tang Mei was now Wang Jinhui’s lawful wife, Wang Jinhui would surely consider face-saving measures. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

After all, he’s the richest man in Huang City; even if reluctant, he’d still give a few nice things as a dowry.

"Just give me a little hint."

"Out of the way, don’t block the mirror. Does this suit look all right? I can’t let down my Tangtang."

Leng Lingxiao didn’t care at all about the dowry.

From the beginning to the end, all he wanted was the person, Tang Xiaowan. Marrying her was the luckiest thing in his life.

Shen Yiming: "..."

You can’t deal with this brother anymore, wife-struck!

Wait, I think I am too.

Yeah, good bros, birds of a feather flock together.

"By the way, is Li Zishen coming?" Shen Yiming picked up a bunch of green grapes, looking gossip-hungry, "If he dares to come, I’ll make sure to..."

Leng Lingxiao understood the rest of the unsaid words.

What Shen Yiming doesn’t realize, if he strikes, he will definitely embarrass Li Zishen.

"Hmph, as if I’d be afraid of him. What a joke!" Leng Lingxiao arched an eyebrow, straightened his silver-gray tie, the proud look on his face nearly spilling out.

His implication was that he didn’t need to do anything.

On his wedding day, he couldn’t be bothered with Li Zishen. It’s most important to be happy.

"Let him eat his heart out with envy!"
