Liang Ran calmed herself down. She looked at Zeng Hui and said coldly, “Grandpa Zeng might have forgotten one important point. At that time, Fan Jin and I hadn’t broken up. You can hear this from the video. If I put these videos online, what do you think the netizens’ reaction will be?”

Zeng Hui’s expression stiffened. He took a deep breath and barely managed to maintain his composure.

“What do you want for you to stop?”

“Yes…” Liang Ran pondered for a moment and said, “How about this? Grandpa Zeng, return 10% of Liang Corporation’s shares and I’ll stop immediately.”

Zeng Hui frowned. “Your appetite is too big.”

Liang Ran raised her eyebrows. “This belongs to the Liang Family. What’s wrong with me taking it back?”

Zeng Hui felt a bit distressed and didn’t want to agree to her demands. After thinking for a moment, he said, “Secretly filming such videos is illegal. Aren’t you afraid that I’ll reveal everything, and you’ll end up in jail?”

Liang Ran suddenly sneered and said in a desolate voice, “What am I afraid of?”

Ji Xuan frowned and looked at Liang Ran. He could sense the ups and downs in Liang Ran’s emotions.

“What do you mean by that?” Zeng Hui asked in confusion.

Liang Ran curled her lips and lowered her voice slightly. “It means that I didn’t take this video myself, nor did I hire someone to take it.”

Zeng Hui’s face was even more confused and a little uneasy. If that was really the case, then the person who took the video must have a copy. He had to find that person.

“Then who took it?” He asked Liang Ran.

“Don’t worry about that, Grandpa Zeng,” Liang Ran said. “That person definitely won’t let this video leak out. After all, he still has to live a life.”

Zeng Hui was confused at first, but he soon understood. His face turned ashen and he almost couldn’t breathe.

“It’s him? Why did he …”

Liang Ran interrupted Zeng Hui. “This is Grandpa Zeng’s family matter. You can go down and handle it yourself. Now, let’s continue our previous topic. Grandpa Zeng, what do you think?”

Zeng Hui was still hesitant. 10% of the shares was not a small amount.

Liang Ran saw his hesitation and said, “Grandpa Zeng, you have to think carefully. If the video of Miss Zeng deliberately being a mistress is leaked, how much damage will it do to the Zeng family’s reputation? Moreover, it will definitely affect the Zeng family’s stocks. It’s such simple math. Grandpa Zeng, can you understand it?”

Zeng Hui’s eyes were red with anger as he said in a low voice, “Fine, I promise you. After this, you must give me all the backup videos for me to destroy.”

“After signing the share transfer agreement, I’ll hand over all the videos.” Liang Ran nodded with a smile. She was really happy this time. She did not expect to have such an unexpected harvest after coming to the Zeng family with Ji Xuan.

Zeng Hui took a deep breath and sat on the chair dejectedly.

Liang Ran didn’t care about him. She said, “I’ll wait for the signature.” Then, she left with Ji Xuan.

After that, there was nothing else to do. Liang Ran was about to go home, but she was stopped when she reached the living room.

He Yuan looked a little tired and said to Ji Xuan, “Xuan, are you really not going to stay with me at the Zeng family’s house?”

“I’m not related to the Zeng family,” Ji Xuan frowned. “What reason do I have to stay in the Zeng family?”

He Yuan’s face turned pale. “But now that I’m married into the Zeng family, and you’re alone…”

Ji Xuan interrupted her. “That’s your own business. Besides, who said I’m alone?”

He Yuan looked at Liang Ran in surprise and said hesitantly, “I thought you were just playing.”

“That’s none of your business,” Ji Xuan said.

He Yuan opened her mouth, but she couldn’t say anything. After a while, she said, “At least stay for dinner before you leave.”

Ji Xuan didn’t say anything and looked at Liang Ran. Liang Ran raised her eyebrows. “I’ll follow Mr. Ji’s decision.”

Ji Xuan nodded. “Sure, then we’ll stay.”

Although he had enjoyed watching the show today, he never got tired of seeing the Zeng family members jumping up and down.

He Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, “I’ll have someone prepare a room for you…for both of you. You can rest for a while and I’ll call you when it’s time to eat.”

Ji Xuan did not refuse. He Yuan went to call the servants to clean up the room.

The two entered the room, and Ji Xuan took off his coat. Seeing Liang Ran sitting there with her head down, he suddenly picked her up and walked towards the bed.

Liang Ran was startled and quickly wrapped her arms around his neck.

“What is Mr. Ji doing?” Her breathing was still a little unstable.

Ji Xuan threw her onto the bed and leaned over. “You did well today. Let’s talk about the reward.”
