The Fake Heiress's Inner Thoughts Were Heard by Her Entire Family

Chapter 131

The conference hall was brightly lit and spacious, with seats filled by corporate leaders. The staff guided Jing Zeyou to the front row, indicating his seat.

Jing Zeyou sat down, crossing his long legs, looking at the large LED screen on the stage projecting the words 'The 20th North river Financial Summit'.

Jing Zeyou glanced at the seat next to him, where Shen Huaichu's name was displayed.

"Mr. Jing," a cool voice came. Jing Zeyou looked up to see Shen Huaichu.

Shen Huaichu's lips curved into a polite smile, "Mr. Shen."

Shen Huaichu sat down, maintaining his usual expressionless demeanor.

As the conference hadn't started yet, the two began to chat.

Jing Zeyou was still curious about the figure he had seen at Shanchi Racing Track. "Mr. Shen, did you also go to Shanchi to watch the race recently?"

A ripple appeared in Shen Huaichu's eyes, "Yes, I went to watch Gu Lin race."

Jing Zeyou raised an eyebrow imperceptibly, his lips curving slightly, "I thought I had seen wrong. Mr. Shen really cares about his brother. Coincidentally, Yi Yi was also racing at Shanchi Racing Track at that time."

Shen Huaichu responded calmly, "Is that so? What a coincidence." He naturally knew that Jing Yi was racing at Shanchi, otherwise he wouldn't have gone to watch.

Jing Zeyou maintained his composure, speaking in a joking tone, "I had intended to greet Mr. Shen after it ended, but it seems you left quite early?"

"I'm not interested in racing, I just went to take a look."

Jing Zeyou's smile deepened, "But it's a pity Mr. Shen didn't stay until the end. That final overtake was quite spectacular." He subtly steered the conversation deeper.

Usually, Jing Zeyou wouldn't deliberately bring up topics the other party disliked, but when it involved Jing Yi, he had to understand Shen Huaichu's thoughts clearly.

A hint of warmth colored Shen Huaichu's gaze, "It's not really a pity, there will always be a next time."

This was exactly what Jing Zeyou was waiting for. The smile in his eyes seemed to carry a different meaning, "Mr. Shen doesn't like racing this time, but will like it next time?"

Given how greatly the car accident had affected Shen Huaichu, how could he be certain he'd be able to watch the entire race safely next time?

Jing Zeyou wasn't planning to 'play the spoilsport', but there were some premises he wanted to clarify with Shen Huaichu.

Shen Huaichu's eyes flickered slightly, catching the unspoken implication in Jing Zeyou's words. For a moment, Shen Huaichu wanted to lay all his thoughts bare, his gaze not wavering in the slightest.

"Mr. Jing, as long as I want to, I can."

Jing Zeyou gave a soft laugh, leisurely crossing his arms and leaning back in his chair, "Well then, we shall see."

Shen Huaichu was indeed a formidable person, something Jing Zeyou had never denied. But he didn't believe it was something that could be accomplished just by wanting it.

The distance between Shen Huaichu and Jing Yi was farther than either of them imagined.

While these two were engaged in their verbal sparring, the CEOs of other groups and companies behind them silently looked on. Although they didn't know what the two were discussing, the atmosphere was certainly far from harmonious.

Weren't Hengjing and Huarui Group supposed to be cooperating? Were they always this fierce even as business partners?

At this moment, the summit began, with the host enthusiastically introducing the day's agenda, "Respected guests, welcome to the 20th North river Financial Summit!"

"What?! That Shen Huaichu was there for Jing Yi?!" So after all this, Shen Huaichu wasn't there for Gu Lin at all, he was there for Jing Yi!

In the Jing family study, upon hearing Jing Zeyou's words, Jing Zeqian stood up abruptly, looking extremely agitated.

Although Jing Zeqian wasn't exactly familiar with Shen Huaichu, he couldn't say he didn't know him. Outstanding ability, ruthless execution, decisive actions - Jing Zeqian didn't deny any of these qualities.

However, no matter how impressive the other party was, let alone being an outsider, even if he were his own brother, Jing Zeqian wouldn't think him worthy of Jing Yi.

Just thinking about the other party having designs on Jing Yi made Jing Zeqian unable to calm down. He paced back and forth in front of Jing Zeyou's desk restlessly, while Jing Zeyou continued to handle his work, seemingly oblivious to the person in front of him.

Seeing his brother still focused on work, Jing Zeqian strode to his desk, "Brother, how can you still have the mind to work now?"

Jing Zeyou looked up, puzzled. He was at the age of supporting his family, if he didn't work, was he supposed to waste time watching his brother pace back and forth?

Even though Jing Zeyou didn't speak, Jing Zeqian knew his brother was silently mocking him. His voice tinged with urgency, he said, "Shouldn't we be thinking of a way to deal with this?"

"Deal with what?"

Jing Zeyou lowered his head again to continue his work, but to avoid Jing Zeqian interrupting him again, he responded to his agitated brother.

"To stop them, of course!"

Jing Zeyou paused, looking at Jing Zeqian with an exasperated expression.

If he wasn't afraid of hurting his brother's feelings, he sometimes felt that at least half of Jing Zeqian's success with 'Startrack' was due to luck.

Seeing his brother's speechless look, Jing Zeqian finally realized, "Oh right, they're not even together yet..." He laughed awkwardly.

Isn't this just anxiety clouding his judgment?

Thinking about it carefully, they really couldn't do anything. Realizing this was truly frustrating.

"So, we can't do anything?" Jing Zeyou was still working with his head down, "You could always expand 'Startrack', then swallow up Huarui Group, so he won't have time to think about these things."

Jing Zeqian silently looked at the person at the desk. Was his brother taking him for a fool?

Seeing Jing Zeqian sit back on the sofa with a frustrated look, Jing Zeyou casually said, "You're not the Queen Mother of the West in heaven, why are you so keen on breaking people up?"

Jing Zeyou's mention of this reminded Jing Zeqian of another 'wolf' - Wen Qingyan.

What kind of fate did the two brothers have? Each of them had invited a 'wolf' home.

"I'm just looking out for them as a brother!" Jing Zeyou gave him a strange look, "How are you looking out for them?"

Aliali: 673eba99c4f3f33ac4ee9836He was genuinely curious. Surely they couldn't banish someone ten thousand miles away just for showing a bit of interest.

Jing Zeqian stammered, unable to come up with anything.

Jing Zeyou leisurely lifted his eyelids, resting one arm on the desk, "Don't view people through colored glasses."

Moreover, if he hadn't mentioned it, Jing Zeqian would probably still think Shen Huaichu's appearance at the racetrack was just a coincidence. With such 'keen' perception, what did he think he could do?

Jing Zeqian let out a light snort. His brother's words sounded nice, but he was sure his brother had 'warned' those two long ago.

A barking dog doesn't bite! Pah pah pah! Wasn't he insulting himself too with that analogy?!

Jing Zeyou watched Jing Zeqian pat his mouth, ignoring his seemingly random behavior, "Where's Yi Yi?" He hadn't seen her since he came back.

"She left early this morning for the place where Jun Jun is filming. Said she was treating it like a relaxing vacation."

Meanwhile, Jing Yi, who had already boarded the plane with Shen Xi, was sleeping with an eye mask on, leaning on Shen Xi's shoulder.

It took several hours to fly from North River to where Jing Zejun was filming. The two had fallen asleep like this after boarding the plane, and didn't wake up until the plane was about to land.
