Chapter 1537: Chapter 1537: Her Chance Has Arrived

“Wenwen, have you heard? Chu Liyuan has someone else outside.” Zhang Xiaona burst into Liu Wenwen’s home excitedly with the news.

“What? Where did you hear that? Is the source reliable?” Liu Wenwen’s eyes revealed an uncontrollable mix of anticipation and glee.

“It’s true. The news is absolutely reliable–one of my close friends told me.”

“That’s great! See, I knew it! A man like Chu Liyuan could never spend his whole life tied to just Jian Dan.” Liu Wenwen’s face lit up with a big smile.

“Exactly! That Jian Dan–what does she have? When it comes to looks, she’s nowhere near you, Wenwen,” Zhang Luna flattered her.

“You’re absolutely right. Looks like my chance has finally come.

Chu Liyuan–this man, I’ll make him mine.” Liu Wenwen declared as her gaze confidently swept towards the direction of Qin Corporation outside the window.

“Wenwen, do you already have a plan?” Zhang Luna’s eyes shimmered as she looked at Wenwen.

“There’s a groundbreaking cocktail party for Jingrun Real Estate tonight. I’ve already heard Chu Liyuan is going to attend–it’s the perfect opportunity.”

“Wenwen, this is practically heaven helping you!”

“Tonight, I’ll make sure this man becomes mine.”

“I can already picture how Jian Dan will look when she sees Chu Liyuan holding you in his arms right in front of her.” Zhang Luna spoke excitedly.

“It’ll definitely be very entertaining.” Liu Wenwen smirked at the corner of her mouth, her eyes flashing with determination.

Jian Dan, determined to clear the misunderstandings surrounding Uncle Chu, decided to reveal the truth to her friends. But to ensure no outsiders overhear, she came up with a plan.

Everyone currently in Li Garden was someone she trusted completely.

When the people downstairs saw Jian Dan and Chu Liyuan walking hand in hand from upstairs, their faces all had the same expression: widened eyes, mouths, and noses, staring at them.

Jian Dan quickly made a “shh” gesture, stopping them from screaming.

Earlier upstairs, Jian Dan had already written down the whole story on a piece of paper.

Once everyone read it, realization dawned upon them.

Mengmeng took a pen and wrote on the paper: “Jian, are you having everyone here join you in this act?”

Jian Dan laughed and wrote back: “I had no choice! I just couldn’t bear to see Uncle Chu being treated so unfairly.”

Xia Mengjiao grabbed the pen from Mengmeng and wrote: “Unfair? Who has been putting up with everything for whom?”

Jian Dan made a gesture of apology, writing: “Once this is over, Sister Zimo will treat us all to dinner.”

The moment the name “Sister Zimo” appeared, everyone fell silent like quails, and no one dared express dissent–they obediently nodded, agreeing to cooperate.

Indeed, Sister Zimo’s name carried weight.

“Uncle Chu, your influence is leagues behind Sister Zimo’s,” Jian Dan leaned in and whispered teasingly to Chu Liyuan.

“Well, isn’t it all because of Jian Jian?” Chu Liyuan quirked his lips into a subtle smile.

Jian Dan feigned innocence and looked away.

To make the act more believable, Jian Dan left Li Garden with the group, carrying luggage to sell the story.

Watching Jian Dan’s retreating figure, Chu Liyuan’s eyes were filled with melancholy.

Great, now he wouldn’t be able to sleep until this was over.

“Are you four planning to stay hidden in that room forever?” After Jian Dan left, Chu Liyuan spoke to the smaller ones’ room.

The four little ones hesitantly opened their doors one by one.

“Uncle Chu, about this…”

“You’ve really managed to create a mess for me. Great job. Now I won’t see Jian Jian for days. Are you happy now?” Chu Liyuan glared at the four little ones, his face dark.

Jian Xiaokai scratched his head, at a loss about how to handle the situation.

“I told you, Dad wouldn’t do this kind of thing!” Xiaoxin suddenly ran up and hugged Chu Liyuan’s leg tightly.

The other three little ones gave Xiaoxin a “Where were you before?” kind of look.

“Um… Our problem is just because we care too much. Even geniuses mess up sometimes,” Kuaikuai spoke in his usual cool tone, though there was a hint of embarrassment.
