460 Come, let Brother teach you art of war in bed! (1)

"..."

Zhang Hongyan couldn't help but cover her mouth to suppress a burgeoning smile, her curiosity piqued. 'I've never heard of this girl behaving so freely within the chamber of commerce.'

'What exactly is she aiming for?' she mused, intrigued by the intentions of Wang Li, the esteemed president of the industrial chamber of commerce.

Zhang Wei, on the other hand, had his priorities clearly defined in life.

Ignoring the brewing intrigue, he then beckoned Wang Li closer with a suggestive curl of his finger.

"Hm!?" Wang Li, initially perplexed given the large table that lay between them, hesitated for a moment.

Then, as if making a resolute decision, she bit her lip and—

Thud!

With a determination that flushed her cheeks with shame, she climbed over the table, her actions bold yet tinged with embarrassment.

'Daring!' Zhang Hongyan couldn't help but think, impressed by Wang Li's boldness.

Despite the evident shame painting her face, Wang Li crawled over the table towards him. Yet, even before she could reach him fully, Zhang Wei extended his hand, grasping her waist, and pulled her closer.

"Ah!?"

Wang Li's startled yelp echoed as she tumbled towards him, finding herself unexpectedly supported by his steady form.

'So manly...' Looking up, she saw him, one hand securely around her, the other miraculously balancing a teacup, not a single drop spilled.

The playful glint in his eyes only amplified her embarrassment, her own bold move now feeling like a clumsy attempt at flirtation.

Zhang Wei leaned in closer, taking her by surprise once again.

Wang Li, caught off guard and flushed with a mix of emotions, shut her eyes, bracing for whatever came next—only to be jolted back to reality by his voice.

"Begone thot."

"Right!!" The realization struck Liu Dongzi like a thunderbolt, his eyes widening. "Liu Ming! That's the name of her—" His voice trailed off, snagged by a second wave of astonishment that rendered him momentarily speechless.

!!

An sudden silence enveloped the gathering, with Wang Haoron, Wang Li, and Zhao Hongyan suspending their breaths, their gazes swiveling towards Zhang Wei, laden with suspicion.

Zhang Wei, embodying the calm at the eye of the storm, gently set his teacup down. "Don't overthink it. I merely kidnapped her," he declared with unsettling nonchalance.

Gasp!

"Cough! Cough!" Zhao Hongyan hastily clutched at her chest, her breath caught in a choke.

The audacity of openly admitting to kidnapping, and that too in front of the patriarch of a prominent family?

What on earth was Zhang Wei plotting?

Liu Dongzi wasn't just anyone; he was a deputy of the provincial party!

Yet, turning to gauge Liu Dongzi's reaction, Zhao found not the anticipated outrage but an expression of... understanding?

"Doctor Zhang, it seems your actions were justified. She, in fact, didn't deserve our family. A woman of her beauty and grace is only fitting for someone as esteemed as Doctor Zhang!" he proclaimed, astonishingly endorsing the abduction.

'Doctor? what the hell!?' Zhao Hongyan's churned in confusion, the brother's abilities were becoming too terrifying for her now., while the Wang siblings, privy to Zhang Wei's renowned healing abilities, seemed less taken aback.

Zhang Wei, seemingly on a quest to astonish further, nodded sagely. "Old Liu, fret not. She was always part of the family," he said, his lips curling into a mischievous, almost sinister smile. Then, as if detonating a bomb in the midst of silence, he revealed, "In fact, she's my blood cousin..."

Hiss!

The information landed among them like a stone in still water, sending ripples of stunned silence through the gathered assembly.

Their expressions, a tableau of disbelief and shock, mirrored the complexity and unexpectedness of Zhang Wei's bombshell.

Liu Dongzi, the seasoned veteran of countless political and familial dramas, found himself grappling with the abrupt twist.

His eyes, wide with surprise, flickered between Zhang Wei and the direction Chen Yulan had disappeared. "Your cousin?" he echoed, his voice a mixture of incredulity and reassessment, as if the pieces of a puzzle were falling into place, yet defying the picture he had envisioned.
