Chapter 340 - Set Up
*************
CHAPTER 340
He had liked Bai Qing Mei since the day they met but just like him, she was hell-bent on ruining Dream Star Corporations that she threw him no glance.
And now the only one she had eyes for was for Ye Cheng. Although she often denied it, Hao Huizhong could read her like a book. He had feelings for her so he could easily detect it when someone was in love.
"No my dear. I think you had me mistaken. I need you to set up a date between her and me and not for the reason you had thought but for something else."
'What is this something that out of all the girls in this world, my boss is the only candidate for it?"
"Think of it as a business stuff but know this, the one thing in which she has that one of the girls in this world has up to her is her hatred for Li Jing."
BADUM!
"Her hatred for Li Jing?"
"Yes. No one hates Li Jing as much and Li Xiu due to the fact that they are supposedly sisters. Li Jing took all from her and it is because of Li Jing coming into her life that she became what she is today. Do not forget it is why she pours out all her frustration on you."
"I know, brother but Li Jing never did anything. So why support her over Li Xiu?"
"This is so because Li Jing had crossed someone she shouldn't have. She played with fire when she interrupted with Ye Cheng and Bai Qing Mei's love."
"Hahaha…" Hao Zhi Ruo laughed loudly, ignoring her environment for the third time. "Please brother, what love is that? The one of pretense?"
"Umm, not really."
"Do not try and talk me into believing shit. I know you like Bai Qing Mei, you always have but she had been in love with Ye Cheng since. She always liked him and you two staying close to him only ended up making her feelings for him grow."
"This wasn't what I called to discuss, young lady."
"What? You are shocked I know so much? I normally studied you before you really took off on your revenge spree. Sigh, alright all you want is to set a date then you can exploit the hatred Li Xiu has for Li Jing and then use it to your advantage. How clever."
"Now that you know, would you help me? And it isn't really exploiting per se. She would still be getting revenge. We would only be her support to do what she wants. At the end of the day, we have a common enemy."
"Of course I would help you but because you are my blood. I would love someone to use Li Xiu so she understands how it feels when she uses people. The only person I bit is Li Jing. But she isn't my business as well."
'You can say she made the wrong friend and inherited his enemies as well. Thanks, dear. I would communicate to you the place and all and send you money to buy the needful. Thanks, little sis."
"Anytime brother. The only thing I ask of you is to keep in touch, please. Do not leave me again."
"I won't. I promise."
"Alright. I would hold you to your word then. Just be good and okay for me okay?"
"Sure. You take care and endure it a little while longer. Soon I would be okay and can take you out of this city and country entirely to lead a better life."
"I am happy anywhere you are brother. That is what matters to me the most," Hao Zhi Ruo corrected.
"Okay. Goodbye, dear."
"Bye, brother."
Once the call ended, Hao Zhi Ruo smile widened. She felt immense joy within her just from hearing from her brother. This was like a dream come true to her.
It was like God had finally answered her prayers and she spoke to him again.
'This is a request from my brother and even though I do not want Li Jing to experience harm as she had never hurt me, I want Li Xiu to suffer. I just hope and pray that her stupidity would always get the best of her and she would flop this. It would be best if she makes Bai Qing Mei's plan fail and earn her wrath in return. Yes, I pray it turns out that way.'

At the same point in time, Ye Cheng and Li Jing arrived at the registry for the wedding. Both of them had just come in a not too formal wedding dressing but a simple white short off-shoulder gown while Ye Cheng wore his brand new dashing black suit with a white inner shirt.
Although he had planned not to look all too formal, he failed miserably in that quest and ended up with the opposite. To him be it a formal, contract, or fake wedding, so long as he was getting married to Li Jing, he was ready to wear the best of the best.
Upon casting her gaze on him, Li Jing smiled. He looked dashing in his outfit and she recalled one of the reasons why she had liked him in the first place. He was the most handsome man she had ever seen.
The godlike man she had once boasted to Yin Lifen about. If only she was getting married to him on a better basis.
Taking in a deep breath, Li Jing made her way towards where he stood by his car. He had not yet noticed her arrival as he was busy typing away on his phone when she got there.
Due to this absent-mindedness, Li Jing took hold of the opportunity to admire him the more. Subconsciously her heart yearned for him even though she wanted to stay and play neutral.
'Naughty mind, naughty Li Jing. Sigh! Why is your life like this?'
This was the man she was going to be spending a few years with depending on what occurs. She was going to see his handsome face daily while having to bear with his new distant attitude.
'Hmm, whatever happens, I am happy that it is he and not Kim Fan. Perhaps I can reopen his heart again.'
