In the end, Si Cheng could only leave dejectedly because Bai Ting had called the bodyguards at home. If he continued to pester her, he would be thrown out.
“What a cold and heartless person,” Si Cheng said at the entrance.
He had completely forgotten what he had done before. He was the one who had let Bai Ting down first.
The servants were angry when they heard that, but Bai Ting was only glad that she had seen him and would not be hung up over Si Cheng anymore. In the future, she would only feel disgusted when she thought about him.
“From now on, don’t let Mi Na enter the house, I don’t like her,” Bai Ting ordered.
Although the servant did not know what was wrong with the two young ladies, her young lady’s orders came first. She replied, “I understand.”
Si Cheng did not receive the Bai family’s help. Instead, he held his breath and was determined to make a name for himself. When the time came, he would definitely make the Bai family regret it.
Since then, he had been busy with his career. However, because he really did not have enough money, he was a little worried. At this moment, the person who was negotiating with him said, “You can totally borrow some. In this day and age, if you want to do something big, you have to take risks.”
“But the bank won’t approve the loan. Our family is still bankrupt,” Si Cheng said.
The man laughed. “You don’t have to borrow money at the bank. There are plenty of other ways.”
Just as Si Cheng found the loan shark, Zou Yi received the news and passed it to Zou Bai. He smiled. “Si Cheng is really naive. He dares to trust anyone. Let’s help him.”
After Zou Yi received the order, he quickly instructed that this matter must be completed. They could not be blamed for Si Cheng being chased for his debt.
During this period of time, Zou Bai was just short of staying at the Jiang family’s house. He had to stay here for an entire day every day. Li Mei was already used to him being at home, and her attitude changed from unaccustomed to very enthusiastic.
After interacting with him for a while, she realized that Zou Bai was only cold on the outside but warm on the inside. He treated each of them very well, and the two children were happy to have their father’s company.
The more she looked at Zou Bai, the more she liked him. When the children were playing, she called Zou Bai to the study.
Li Mei said, “Zou Bai, I’m considered your elder. I’ll only ask you one thing now. What do you think of An’an?”
“I want to marry An’an,” Zou Bai said firmly.
Of course, Li Mei knew his determination. Zou Bai had not just been saying pretty words previously. The share transfer contract had been delivered the day after the banquet. Such a move already made her feel relieved.
However, marriage was not just between two people after all. It was between two families. She was worried about the Zou family’s attitude towards An’an.
Although the two families were well-matched and An’an had given birth to two children, she could not accept that the Zou family treated An’an badly at all. They could not even slight her. She was her precious darling that she had finally found.
“Then what does your family think?” Li Mei asked.
Zou Bai understood what Li Mei wanted to ask and said, “Previously, An’an refused to let me tell my family, so they still don’t know about me and An’an. However, when I go back this time, I’ll immediately tell my parents. They’ll definitely be very happy.”
“An’an is my precious daughter and the future head of the Jiang family. You have to remember this,” Li Mei said.
Zou Bai nodded. “Don’t worry. Our family won’t mistreat An’an. Mom likes her a lot, and with me around, I won’t ever let her suffer at all.”
Zou Bai wasn’t a rich second-generation heir who relied on his family. He was the head of the entire Zou family. His words were convincing.
Only then did Li Mei feel relieved. “I’ll remember what you said today. If your relationship with An’an runs out in the future, you have to remember the feelings you had when you were young. Don’t hurt her.”
“I swear, if I ever hurt An’an, I’ll die a horrible death,” Zou Bai swore to the sky.
When Li Mei heard his words, a smile appeared on her face. “Alright, I believe you.”
Zou Bai was overjoyed by Li Mei’s change in attitude. When the two of them came out of the study, he was still smiling until he saw Zhao Yan sitting on the sofa.
Jiang An got someone to bring tea over to serve him. Then, he sat opposite her and waited for Li Mei. Her brothers had gone to work today, so only she and her mother were at home.
Zhao Yan wasn’t here to visit Li Mei to begin with, so he started chatting with Jiang An.
After all, he was a guest, so Jiang An couldn’t just leave him here. Fortunately, Zhao Yan was an interesting person, so they chatted happily.
However, Zou Bai knew that he definitely had malicious intentions. He walked over with a cold expression..
