Chapter 45: 045 Coming in person to poach from Wuye’s turf? Chapter 45: 045 Coming in person to poach from Wuye’s turf? The sudden downpour turned into a curtain of rain, blurring all the lights of Pingjiang City into a single swath, as if they were part of an oil painting.

Qi Zeyan gripped his wineglass tightly.

He vaguely remembered that he had indeed joked about Tang Wan’s name.

The expression of his assistant remained unchanged as he set the materials aside, “Boss, shall I step out?”

“Why step out when I haven’t finished speaking?”

“That…” the assistant pursed his lips, “Don’t you need some time alone, to process this matter?”

After all…

When the spark of infatuation was snuffed out, didn’t one need some time alone to drink and dissipate it?

“Process what? Just give me a summary of her situation, I can’t be bothered to flip through the materials.”

“This is the one the Jiang Family has taken a liking to…” The assistant’s voice carried a hint of hesitation.

Mainly because if the fifth master or the Jiang Family really took a liking, the most probable action they’d take was to…

Dig a hole, bury their boss, and give him a grand funeral!

And then probably stomp on the soil twice more, fearing he wasn’t dead enough.

Qi Zeyan, however, didn’t mind, “Their family originally came to break off the engagement, and besides, a verbal marriage agreement has no basis. She’s unmarried, and I am fond of her, so why can’t I pursue her?”

The assistant nodded; this reasoning was sound. The fifth master came over to break off the engagement, after all, it wasn’t like poaching from a brother.

He picked up the materials and highlighted the key points about Tang Wan to Qi Zeyan.

Qi Zeyan listened carefully as he drank his wine.

His budding feelings had just rippled a little when he felt a huge wave crashing head-on, slamming him onto the beach, where he could only struggle helplessly.

But if the Jiang Family wanted to call off the engagement, wasn’t that a golden opportunity sent by the heavens?
