Chapter 324 Unsolicited Gifts and Regret
A wave of gasps swept through the crowd. The gift was incredibly valuable.
Rarely, Su Yunxi's pretty face was also filled with shock, and she couldn't help but sigh, realizing the man she chose was becoming more and more remarkable.
Li Jiajia finally reacted, completely stunned.
As a native of Jiangzhou, Li Jiajia naturally knew the prestige of Qingcheng Martial Arts School. Eighty percent of the shares were worth at least hundreds of millions. This was just given away?
And it was given to a man she had treated like dirt.
Just moments ago, she had said the gifts were cheap and uninspired, with others giving out Rolexes and properties.
Now, this stock transfer agreement, its value alone, was enough to crush everything. It was like a resounding slap to Li Jiajia's face.
Unreconciled, Li Jiajia rushed to Old Man Lin, flailing her arms, "Old man, have you lost your mind? Why are you giving eighty percent of the shares to this good-for-nothing who freeloads off women? He's a scoundrel, don't you know? Are you out of your mind, or just senile?"
Old Man Lin's face instantly darkened, "How dare you insult Mr. Chen! Slap her!"
Lin Lei darted forward and slapped Li Jiajia across the face.
Ah—
A scream.
She fell to the ground, landing on her backside. Ignoring her swollen cheek and bloodied lip, she stared intently at Chen Xuan, her expression becoming extremely complex.
Even if Su Yunxi had the ability and means, she wouldn't give such an expensive gift for Chen Xuan, a freeloading scoundrel.
Could it be that Chen Xuan was actually a significant figure?
"Mr. Chen, not only did you detoxify me, but you also protected my Lin family. If you don't accept it, I will kneel down to you right now!"
Old Man Lin said, his emotions becoming somewhat agitated, about to kneel before Chen Xuan.
"No, no... I'll take it, I'll take it."
Chen Xuan quickly supported Old Man Lin, who was about to kneel.
"That's good!"
Old Man Lin was immediately relieved.
This attitude, seen by Li Jiajia, made her feel even worse. The shares were being given to Chen Xuan, yet it was like begging him to accept them, as if they were afraid he wouldn't.
She became even more convinced that Chen Xuan possessed true capabilities!
"Good for you, Chen Xuan. When we were together, you kept it from me. Now that we're divorced, you're not hiding it anymore."
Her eyes were full of venom.
After signing the contract, Chen Xuan continued to greet guests.
"Chen Xuan, I know I was wrong. I hope you can forgive me."
Li Jiajia took a deep breath, got up from the ground, and slowly walked in front of Chen Xuan, tears streaming down her face, her eyes red.
The reason she was so humble and low-spirited was to probe just how capable Chen Xuan truly was.
Chen Xuan glanced at Li Jiajia. Li Jiajia was also good-looking, and at this moment, she appeared pitifully fragile. If it were anyone else, he might have believed Li Jiajia's apology was sincere. But he knew Li Jiajia too well; he had no faith that such a person could reform.
After all, a dog can't change its habit of eating excrement!
Chen Xuan said resolutely, "Li Jiajia, let me say it again, we have no relationship anymore."
"You can't treat me like this. We were together for several years. Don't you have any feelings for me at all?" Li Jiajia played the emotional card.
If it were before, Chen Xuan might have forgiven Li Jiajia. But after experiencing so much, this woman had colluded with her lover to poison his mother and cuckold him. How could such actions be forgiven?
"If you don't want to stay here, then get out quickly." Chen Xuan said expressionlessly.
Li Jiajia was furious, jumping up and down in anger. She pointed at Su Yunxi, "Is it because of her?"
Chen Xuan sighed and said indifferently, "From the moment you betrayed me and colluded with your lover to poison my mother, there was no possibility for us."
Li Jiajia trembled, disbelieving Chen Xuan's words, and shook her head, "No, it's because of this woman!"
"I'm telling you, no matter how rich you are, he is my man, and he has nothing to do with you," Li Jiajia shouted.
The response Li Jiajia received was a resounding slap.
"You dare to hit me?" Li Jiajia touched her face, looking at Su Yunxi in disbelief.
If it were in the past, Li Jiajia would absolutely not dare to challenge Su Yunxi. But Li Jiajia considered herself superior as someone from the provincial capital, with powerful forces backing her. Her heart was already devoid of fear.
Li Jiajia was about to charge forward, but Chen Xuan stopped her.
"Yunxi, leave this to me."
Chen Xuan smiled at Su Yunxi. Su Yunxi stared into Chen Xuan's eyes for a few seconds before finally nodding.
After speaking, Chen Xuan looked at Li Jiajia, "Are you truly repentant?"
Li Jiajia nodded like pounding garlic, "I truly regret it. I remember your kindness."
Even with a face full of sincerity, Chen Xuan still caught a hint of coldness.
Chen Xuan pretended not to notice anything and continued to receive guests. Li Jiajia, like the hostess, began to attend to the other guests.
Su Yunxi was very confident, but still a little nervous. What if Chen Xuan still had feelings for Li Jiajia? After all, they had been together for so long!
Later, she smiled bitterly and shook her head. She should trust Chen Xuan.
At this moment, a group of constables in uniforms and black leather shoes, from the police station, rushed over.
They were fully armed, their dark weapons particularly intimidating.
"What do you people mean?" Black Tiger stepped forward and asked immediately.
At this, the square-faced middle-aged man stepped forward and said sternly, "Is this Xuanji Hall?"
This square-faced middle-aged man was named Fang Hua, the boss of the Jiangzhou Police Station.
In front of Fang Hua, Black Tiger dared not act arrogant, saying, "It is indeed Xuanji Hall."
The square-faced middle-aged man said expressionlessly, "We received a report that your Xuanji Hall is harboring contraband. Now, take everyone away!"
Saying that, a group of constables charged forward without discrimination, preparing to arrest people.
"Are you mistaken? It's Xuanji Hall's grand opening, how could we be harboring contraband?" Black Tiger argued.
"Scram!"
Fang Hua raised his hand and slapped Black Tiger across the face.
Black Tiger covered his face, burning with anger.
He could see now that the contraband was just an excuse. These people were deliberately causing trouble.
Hearing this, Li Jiajia understood. It wasn't that Chen Xuan was capable at all, but that Chen Xuan had engaged in illegal and criminal activities. No wonder people were giving him such generous gifts.
She didn't want to be implicated and immediately shrank back.
A constable rushed over, grabbed Chen Xuan's wrist, "You are under arrest. Come with me."
"Why are you arresting me? I have nothing to do with this," Li Jiajia immediately panicked and shouted.
The constable pointed at Chen Xuan, "Do you know him?"
"I absolutely don't know him."
Li Jiajia shook her head like a rattle drum, quickly distancing herself from Chen Xuan, a stark contrast to her earlier clinginess.
"Go to hell! You were busy running around just now, we all saw it clearly. If you weren't related, why would you be so busy? Do you think I'm stupid?"
However, they wouldn't listen to her explanations. The constable cursed a few times, grabbed Li Jiajia by the collar, and slapped her left and right, causing Li Jiajia to scream miserably.
"I really have nothing to do with him!"
Li Jiajia sat on the ground, crying bitterly.
Damn it, I should have known better than to throw myself at him.
