Li Ze fearlessly met Wang Jingjing's gaze, smiling:

"It's just what it seems. Although Uncle Wang took on the responsibility of the Wang Group at a young age and has worked tirelessly all these years, he's always paid attention to his health and maintained good fitness. How did his condition take such a sudden turn for the worse in the past few years?"

"Could there be some hidden issue?"

Wang Jingjing stared intently at Li Ze, her eyes flickering coldly, but eventually, her expression gradually softened. Suddenly, she broke into a smile.

"Young Master Li, you think too much. Do you think I don't know my own father's health?"

"Really? Maybe I'm just overthinking."

Li Ze chuckled lightly and spoke casually, but inwardly, he couldn't help but sneer. As if I'd believe that!

He knew all too well that Wang Fugui's illness was entirely orchestrated by Wang Jingjing! The private doctor in charge of Wang Fugui's condition was also her person.

"If I remember correctly, after my engagement ceremony with Wang Jingjing, under her manipulation, Wang Fugui's illness would relapse, treatment would fail, and ultimately... he would die suddenly!"

"Then, with most of the Wang family already under her control, she would completely take it over."

"However..."

Li Ze frowned inwardly.

Wang Jingjing truly lived up to her reputation as one of the top villains in the book. Her psychological resilience was indeed formidable. If it had been anyone else, they would have panicked under such a sudden probe. But she adjusted her mindset in just a few seconds.

"That's good. It's fine as long as the misunderstanding is cleared up. But, Young Master Li, there are some things that shouldn't be said carelessly."

"Don't you agree?"

Wang Jingjing smiled sweetly, like a flower blooming on a mountaintop. Her stunning beauty seemed to make everything around her fade into insignificance.

The attendant standing by her side, dressed in a white jacket and a black tie, couldn't help but glance up at her. He felt as if he was completely captivated by her nearly perfect figure.

A flash of greed appeared in the attendant's eyes. If he could taste such a beauty, it would be worth dying for!

Suddenly, he felt a chill run through his body and instantly realized something was wrong. He silently cursed his misfortune.

Li Ze was still standing right there. Wang Jingjing was his fiancée!

Blatantly staring at the fiancée of the eldest son of the Li family was courting death!

"Ga-ga."

The attendant's neck turned stiffly, and then he saw Li Ze's expressionless face and those cold, piercing eyes!

His body immediately froze.

"Where do you think you're looking?"

Sure enough, Li Ze's voice came through, devoid of any warmth.

No matter what, Wang Jingjing was now his fiancée in name, his possession, and his possession... how could he allow anyone else to touch it? Even a single glance was unacceptable!

The attendant felt a chill in his heart. He hurriedly bowed repeatedly, sweating profusely, and said, "Young Master Li, I was wrong! I definitely didn't mean to... I am willing to accept any punishment!"

Because of his nervousness, his words were stuttering and stumbling. At this moment, the attendant deeply regretted his actions.

Was he an idiot? How could he make such a basic mistake! A scolding was inevitable, not to mention the embarrassment, and he might even have his wages docked.

Of course, the attendant wasn't overly worried. In his understanding, Li Ze had a pretty good temper, so he didn't really think Li Ze would do anything severe to him.

Li Ze's expression remained unchanged, his eyes slightly narrowed. "Oh, since you're willing to accept punishment, I won't make things difficult for you."

"Resign voluntarily and get out of Haiching City."

"What?" The attendant froze.

Resign and leave Haiching City?

The attendant's face turned pale.

"No, Young Master Li, are you joking? My whole family is in Haiching City!"

"Hmm?" Cold light flashed in Li Ze's eyes, chilling to the bone. "Do I look like I'm joking with you?"

"If I ever see you in Haiching City again, I'll have someone dig your eyes out! My possessions, are they something you can covet?"

Under that gaze, the waiter's body went limp, and he collapsed directly to the ground, his face pale as ash.

It's over.

He had been foolish for a moment, taking one too many glances, and now he had jeopardized his own future and destiny.

Everything he had struggled so hard for in the first half of his life.

All gone!

"No, Mr. Li, please give me another chance. I won't dare again, I promise!"

The waiter crawled desperately towards Li Ze, clutching his thighs and pleading incessantly.

But Li Ze impatiently kicked him away with a single push: "Get lost!"

"Mr. Li, is it really necessary to go this far?"

A clear voice came from beside him, prompting Li Ze to turn his head. It was Wang Jingjing speaking, her expression calm but with a hint of anger flickering in her eyes.

The tone she used seemed to imply that he belonged to her!

Li Ze stepped closer to Wang Jingjing, stopping right in front of her. "Of course it's necessary. Some people just never understand their place or who they're dealing with. Naturally, they must pay a painful price... Don't you agree?"

His words carried a weighty implication as he spoke.

Wang Jingjing's expression subtly changed. The opponent's upright posture, sharp gaze, and domineering, almost arrogant language, unexpectedly brought her a faint sense of oppression!

Was this still the same dandy young master who had never been taken seriously by her before? The way he made her feel today was indeed different!

"I'm tired today. Let's stop here," Li Ze said, turning to grab a towel from the side to wipe the sweat off his face. With that, he turned and walked away.

"Ding! Host successfully altered the plot!"
