章 140: Chapter 140 Love Begins in a Mystery and Goes Deep (2)

Fan Shaoming had gone against his mother's teachings for Su Xiaoyue, yet he was unwilling to let Jun Group take advantage—there were countless unseen battles within the two groups' attempts to establish business relations.

But his esteemed mother had been eager to marry him off; if she knew he had softened for Su Xiaoyue, letting Jun Group take advantage, she would probably be happy.

Thinking of this, Fan Shaoming felt even more dejected—he didn't need to guess to know his mother would be grinning, and her smile would be a slap in his face, loud and clear. After all the daughters of noble families she had presented to him, he remained uninterested, even claiming that the woman capable of stirring his heart hadn't been born yet. But before his words could settle, his heart had already fluttered.
