Zheng Wen asked Mi Li and Bai Ting out to shop at the department store owned by the Si Family for a day. Both parties were very happy, as if they had forgotten the unpleasant incident at the restaurant last week.

After separating, Zheng Wen couldn’t wait to call Si Cheng. “Son, let me tell you. You have to seize this opportunity. I’m having a meal with the Bai family today.”

When Si Cheng heard this, he frowned slightly. “Why are the two of you still stirring up trouble? Don’t they mind that I’m married?”

Zheng Wen clicked her tongue unhappily. “What do you mean by stirring up trouble? Didn’t I do all of this with a smile on my face for you? You’re heartless. Let me tell you, Bai Ting can’t miss this opportunity. As expected of someone who has seen the world since she was young and knows how to make a proper choice.”

“It’s all thanks to my glib tongue. The Bai family doesn’t mind that you’re married now. Bai Ting is a long-term person. Not to mention that Tan Si’s child isn’t yours, even if it’s yours, she can tolerate it. Isn’t this how marriages of our class are like? Everyone has an illegitimate child. Only your father is under my strict control. That’s why this sort of thing didn’t happen. That’s because I’m capable!”

Si Cheng ignored Zheng Wen’s words. He only felt that Bai Ting was a little strange. Her conditions were not bad either. Although his family’s conditions were slightly better than theirs, he was not divorced yet. There was no need for the Bai family to be so desperate, right?

However, Si Cheng didn’t have time to think too much now. He only wanted to avoid his mother monitoring him to get the divorce settled. He changed the topic and said, “Mom, do you want your son to commit bigamy?”

Zheng Wen frowned and said, “What nonsense are you talking about? I’m warning you. Hurry up and go through the divorce procedures. You always say you’ll do it. It’s been almost a month. I still haven’t even seen the divorce certificate.”

As the Si mother and son spoke, the Bai mother and daughter were also discussing them.

Mi Li held Bai Ting’s hand and sighed softly. “Daughter, it’s been hard on you. If it weren’t for the fact that our overseas business is severely damaged and we urgently need funds, you wouldn’t have to be in such a hurry to marry a man who has already been married once.”

Bai Ting looked at her mother and comforted her, “Mom, I’ve enjoyed the good life you’ve given me for so many years. Now that something has happened to my family, how can I stand by and do nothing?”

“Si Cheng’s condition is not bad, and he’s also my type. Don’t worry, I don’t feel aggrieved.”

Mi Li stroked Bai Ting’s hair lovingly with a gratified expression on her face. However, when she thought of the situation of her family’s business, she could not help but say worriedly, “Zheng Wen wants to marry us because she sees our strength overseas. However, we appear strong, but are actually weak now. To outsiders, it’s nice to say that we see an opportunity for China to develop rapidly, so we transferred a portion of our business back. However, we know the actual situation.”

“I’m worried that your life will be difficult when they find out the truth after you get married.”

Bai Ting was very calm. She looked out of the window and revealed a faint smile. “Don’t you have confidence in your daughter taking down Si Cheng? As long as you deal with him, so what if you’re discovered? He’s the future head of the Si family.”

“Mom, the two times Zheng Wen met us, she was testing our connections overseas. If I’m not wrong, this should be the reason why the Si family wants to find us for a marriage alliance. Therefore, we have to get that sum of money before they find out. As long as our company can stabilize the situation, we can naturally help him expand the overseas market. This is a win-win situation.”

Seeing that Bai Ting knew what she was doing, Mi Li felt a little relieved.

Under Zhou Yun’s advice, Tan Si finally brought Yuan Shao into the production team to film.

Tan Si was preparing to film a big night scene on set when she received a call while waiting.

“Miss Tan, Jiang Huai and Tan Ming went to the production team of Windward for an audition today, but we can’t find out the results of the audition now.”

When Tan Si heard the words “Windward”, her grip on the phone tightened. “Did you get photos of them?”

The voice on the other end of the phone sounded again. “Yes, they were indeed a little intimate, but we’ve been following Jiang Huai for so long and haven’t found anything out of line between the two of them. However, we can’t follow them into the company. Moreover, Jiang Huai is very vigilant and practices anti-reconnaissance. We didn’t dare to follow too closely. The photo taken this time is a little blurry, so it’s not enough to explain anything..”
