Marriage Before Love: Mr. Li is Addicted to Wife-Chasing

How does it feel to be alone at one's own wedding? That was the case for Xia Chenxing. Her groom was absent, and she had a rooster for a stand-in. Despite being married for three years, she never met her husband and was everyone's laughing stock and scorned because of that. But so what? No one would know her happiness! Sports cars, mansions, and luxury brands were all hers. She could wear a different set of clothes and jewelry every single day while never running out of money. Most importantly, she did not have to stress herself over procreating! Was there anyone who would not love a life of freedom and indulgence like this one? That is, until one day, she had to break into a private box to avoid some thugs and met a mysterious, cold man... and he had his sights on her. Xia Chenxing: I'm married. My husband will beat you up if you bother me again! The man's advances escalated instead of stopping, leaving Xia Chenxing falling apart from the inside, and she warned him again, "My husband and I love each other very much. Love is stronger than money, and you stand no chance. Give up!"The man appeared even more delighted at her words, and a faint smile appeared on his cold visage. One day, Xia Chenxing was finally pushed over the brink and snapped: Hey! Are you crazy? Why are you stalking a married woman?! Go to the hospital and get checked if there's something wrong with you. And stay away from me! That was when the man finally asked: What's wrong with me stalking my wife? Then, cupping her shocked, dainty face, he said: Good. Now call me 'darling'!

Xia Zhiguang was so angry that his entire body was trembling. He scolded angrily, "Get lost. You have no right to speak here. Even if you have 3% of the shares, you have to be of a certain caliber if you want to enter the board of directors. You don't have the right to stand here now!"

Hearing this, Xia Chenxing unhurriedly took out an item and threw it in front of Xia Zhiguang. "Open your eyes and look carefully. I have more than 3% shares!"

Xia Zhiguang did not believe him and gestured for his assistant to take a look. The assistant picked it up and said in surprise, "CEO Xia, Miss Xia has 6% of the shares. She doesn't have to apply to join the board of directors."

Xia Zhiguang did not believe her. He took the document and read it carefully. It was indeed six percent. No wonder she had only wanted three percent of the shares previously. She had wanted to join the board. He had really underestimated this unfilial daughter! He gritted his teeth and cursed countless times in his heart, but there was nothing he could do about Xia Chenxing.

The directors looked at each other, their eyes filled with shock. They did not expect the second daughter of the Xia family to be so scheming.

Xia Chenxing calmly fiddled with her earring. For the past few years, she had been buying up shares in the Xia Corporation. The retail investors had very few shares. After so long, she had only collected three percent. Although she had reached the threshold to enter the board, she still had to apply. She might not have much say yet, so she simply set up a trap and had Zhuang Meiyu transfer three percent of the shares to her. With six percent, her word would have weight.

Seeing that Xia Zhiguang was staring at her without saying anything, Xia Chenxing said calmly, "It looks like CEO Xia can't think of any effective solution. In that case, let me share my thoughts with the directors." Her voice was clear and calm, but she gave off a steady and experienced feeling. She did not look like a young lady in her twenties at all.

She said, "Firstly, Xia Zhixi will take full responsibility and issue a statement to apologize as soon as possible. At the same time, we have to think of a way to obtain Mrs. Wan's forgiveness to prevent public opinion from fermenting further. Secondly, the hospital has to immediately issue a statement to fire Xia Zhixi in case the incident is used by someone with ulterior motives to attack the Xia Corporation. Lastly, Xia Zhiguang has abused his power and should bear all the losses caused to the company. These are my views."

This plan was reasonable, especially the last one, which was deeply favored by the shareholders. Everyone agreed. If no one objected, it was equivalent to a unanimous vote and could be carried out immediately.

Xia Chenxing said again, "CEO Xia, I've already written the statement for you and Miss Xia. I'll send it to you after the meeting ends. Please release it. You don't have to worry about Mrs. Wan. I'll take over her surgery. Of course, the condition is that you transfer me back to my original position." It was impossible to make her leave with such little means!

Xia Zhiguang gritted his teeth, but he had to agree to her conditions.

After the meeting ended, Xia Chenxing left the meeting room happily. However, Xia Shouguang suddenly followed her and said, "Second niece, congratulations on entering the board of directors at such a young age."

Xia Chenxing smiled and replied politely, "Uncle, you like to tease me. My shares are not even as much as yours."

Xia Shouguang changed the topic and said, "Chenxing, I underestimated you in the past. Now, it seems that you're the most capable person in the family. Uncle admires someone like you. I wonder if you want to go to Uncle's house? Aunt always misses you."

Xia Chenxing said calmly, "Thank you for Aunt's concern, but I've already made an appointment with Grandmother today to accompany her. Forgive me for not being able to agree." She rejected him outright. Xia Shouguang was not a good person either. It was not so easy to use her as a weapon.

Xia Shouguang was not angry. He said kindly, "It's fine. We can do it another day. You young people have your own things to do. Uncle will invite you again next time." The two of them bade farewell amicably and separated.

… .

After the meeting, Xia Zhiguang quickly left the company. The anger in his heart had reached its peak. If he didn't vent it now, he would go crazy.

Xia Zhixi knew that she had made a big mistake and was discussing it with her mother at home. But before the two of them could think of a good solution, Xia Zhiguang kicked the door open angrily.

The mother and daughter were shocked and looked at the door. Xia Zhiguang didn't even change his shoes. He unbuckled his belt and pulled it out to hit Xia Zhixi.

Xia Zhixi quickly hid behind her mother and said in panic, "Dad, I know my mistake. Calm down. You'll kill me."
