Zhang Luoya washed her hands and went to the kitchen to help. 

After piling the home-made noodles on the chopping board neatly, she couldn’t help but ask, “Auntie, do you know where A Chen is?”

Li Manting put the lid of the pot on the chopping board and complained, “Don’t mention that brat. He drove out in the middle of the night. I didn’t tell you because I was worried that you would be sad. But I’ll scold him harshly when he comes back later. He gives so much importance to his work that he doesn’t care about his girlfriend at all.”

Zhang Luoya smiled awkwardly. “Auntie, don’t blame A Chen. Work is important.” She paused for a moment and added timidly, “I like A Chen’s responsible attitude towards work.”

Li Manting looked at Zhang Luoya, feeling more satisfied. Zhang Luoya was well-educated, gentle, and considerate. She would definitely scold her disappointing son later for not caring about Zhang Luoya. 

At the dinner table, Old Mr. Jing saw that all the family members were there except Jing Muchen, so he couldn’t help asking about him. 

Li Manting faltered, but she still had to tell the truth. 

Old Mr. Jing got furious at once. When he saw the sad look on Zhang Luoya’s face, he was so angry that he threw his chopsticks away. “Get the car ready!”

The Jing family had never had such a rebellious grandson like Jing Muchen. 

At the gate of the building of Jing Yang Group. 

Dressed in a tunic suit with ancient coin prints, Old Mr. Jing got out of the car with a white jade pipe in his hand. 

Following closely behind were a black Lincoln and a red Regal. Then Jing Shaofan, Li Manting, Li Muchen, Zhang Luoya, and Ouyang Lv hurriedly got out of the two cars. 

“Dad!” Li Manting rushed over. “Why are you here?”

“Why can’t I come here? Am I not allowed to come to Jing Yang Group?” Old Mr. Jing said angrily. 

“There are so many people here. What are you going to do here?” Li Manting said helplessly. 

They had already attracted the attention of many passers-by. She was so embarrassed that she wanted to take Old Mr. Jing back immediately. 

However, Old Mr. Jing was a retired soldier. He couldn’t control his temper. 

Seeing the situation, Zhang Luoya took out her phone. “A Chen, something has happened. Grandpa is in the company now. He’s downstairs, and he wants to see you. Come down quickly.”

A few minutes later, Jing Muchen, wearing a simple black suit and white shirt, walked through the revolving door unhurriedly with his left hand in his trouser pocket and a cigarette in his right hand. 

“Grandpa, what brings you here?” He took a drag on his cigarette and puffed out a beautiful smoke ring. His eyes narrowed as he squinted at the group of people behind Old Mr. Jing. 

Before everyone could react, Old Mr. Jing raised his hand and fiercely threw his big white jade pipe out. 

“Ahhh!” Li Manting and Zhang Luoya screamed in horror. The others rushed over at once. “Dad!” “Grandpa!” They all pulled Old Mr. Jing to stop him. 

The big white jade pipe was smashed on the ground and broke into pieces. Jing Muchen tilted his head, and his black hair hung on the side of his face. Suddenly, a drop of liquid dripped from his bangs. It was blood! 

Old Mr. Jing was also shocked. After being stunned for a while, he mumbled, “Why didn’t you dodge?”

He usually smashed teacups, inkstones, and other things at Jing Muchen, but Jing Muchen always dodged successfully. 

Li Manting and Zhang Luoya hurried over and asked Jing Muchen, “A Chen, are you okay?”

Jing Muchen raised his head. Despite the bleeding wound on his left forehead, he still looked very handsome. His lips curved into a faint smile, but his eyes were sharp and cold. He looked a little gloomy. 

He reached out his hand, wiped the blood on his forehead, and asked, “Grandpa, why are you so angry?”

Old Mr. Jing was speechless for a long time. Some people around were already taking photos of them. 

When Li Manting saw this, she hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Jing Muchen’s arm. “All right. A Chen, don’t say anything more. Your grandpa didn’t mean to hit you. Don’t be angry. Hurry and go home with me. Chen, call Doctor Shi and ask him to come to our villa.”

She then got into the car, and the others followed her. As soon as they left, the passers-by started discussing with each other. 

“Wow! It’s so exciting when a rich and powerful family has a fight.”

“Yes, it’s so interesting. It’s like a soap opera on TV.”

“How can he use a jade pipe to hurt his grandson? Old Mr. Jing is indeed very ruthless!”

In the Jing family’s villa. 

Shi Mingjun arrived and treated Jing Muchen’s wound. Then he told everyone that it was all right, and they were all relieved. 

Old Mr. Jing sat on the wooden armchair, unwilling to apologize. When Jing Yanxi saw the blood, he got frightened and cried. 

When Jing Muxuan found that it was Old Mr. Jing who hit Jing Muchen, she shook her head and had nothing to say. 

“Yan Yan…” Jing Muchen walked out of the bathroom with gauze on his forehead. 

“Uncle Muchen…” Jing Yanxi walked up to Jing Muchen with his short legs. With tears streaming down his face, he asked, “Uncle Muchen, does it hurt?”

Jing Muchen bent over and hugged him. “It doesn’t hurt. Why are you crying? Boys don’t cry, okay?”

“Uncle Muchen… I thought I would never see you again.”

Jing Muchen was rendered speechless. 

Seeing that Jing Muchen and Jing Yanxi both looked aggrieved, Old Mr. Jing snorted. He remembered that when he led the soldiers to fight in wars in the past, he also suffered serious injuries. 

“Grandpa…” Jing Muchen held Jing Yanxi’s hand and walked up to the old man. “You can set a date for Luoya and me to be engaged.”

Sitting in the corner of the sofa, Zhang Luoya gasped and covered her mouth with joy. 

Li Manting also smiled happily. 

Standing there, Jing Muchen rubbed Jing Yanxi’s black hair while looking at the relieved expression on everyone’s face. But his eyes were unfathomable, and no one knew what he was thinking. 

Li Manting set the engagement date on the twentieth of May because 520 in Chinese meant “I love you.” The Zhang family was also very satisfied. 

On the engagement day, the media crowded the hall. Cameras constantly flashed, and every reporter was vying for the headlines. 

All the screens in D City broadcasted the news about the engagement between the two big companies. They said that Jing Muchen and Zhang Luoya were a perfect couple. Even Weibo was in chaos, and the netizens made posts and comments all the time. 

One post on Weibo was a photo with a caption, “I suspect that Mr. Jing Muchen was only forced to marry Zhang Luoya. He was actually beaten till he bled before the engagement.” This was reposted and shared thousands of times. 

The photo clearly showed Jing Muchen’s bloody forehead. But there was a group of Jing Muchen’s female fans who made comments below. 

“Why is he still so handsome even though his forehead is bleeding?”

“Anyone who dares to hit him, I’ll cut him into pieces.”

“He is so stylish. In this photo, he looks like a handsome gangster. Please touch me.”

Dacheng Company was also put in the limelight. 

That day happened to be Saturday. So all the members of the Jing family and Jing Muchen’s best friends were present. They were all famous figures in D City. Even celebrities and politicians were also there. Zhang Fuhu’s heart was filled with joy while watching the scene..
