Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman novel Chapter 111

Jean and Zed showing off became an amusement. She felt even more embarrassed and buried her head into Zed's chest. She tapped Zed's chest to show that she felt annoyed and awkward before she said, "Zed, what do you want to do?"

Jean did not expect that Zed would act boldly and ignore people's reactions. It was an evening party which was attended by a lot of celebrities. Though they were couple, displaying such affection in public made Jean feel ashamed. Jean believed that her face must have turned red.

"You are my wife. I have the right to do this as your husband. Don't you forget why we attend this party today? To show our love!" Zed looked up and stared afar. A wicked smile showed up on his handsome face.

"I attend this party to accompany you. I haven't thought that we should act as true couple and become as intimate as that!" Jean glared at Zed in anger. She tried to get away from his tight hug. But they were in a public place. If Jean tried her best to get away from him, her action might draw more people's attention.

Zed did not take Jean's drudgery seriously. With his arms around Jean, he led her to the buffet table. He place French pastries on a tray, passed it to Jean and said, "Darling, you said that you are hungry, right?"

Zed's action drew attention from the girls who were around them. They were shrieked in extreme excitement. They were crazy about the two of them.

"Oh, my gosh! Why don't I have a perfect, gentleman like him? That's so unfair!"

"Yeah, right. Zed is like a god. I have loved him for many years. And now he had just been easily caught by another woman. I am hearted now! It hurts so much!"

"Ughh! If I am the lady standing next to him, I would be willing to give up decades of my life."

Jean found the words she heard from those young ladies' hard to believe. They were all princesses of wealthy families. They have nearly everything. If they fell in love with any rich and handsome men, those ladies could easily win their hearts. Yet they behaved just like idiots being allured by Zed's handsome face.

Jean shook her head in depression. The moral degeneration of the world was getting worse day by day. Jean did not know what made these ladies go crazy about Zed. It was as if they had drunk a kind of magic potion called "Zed Qi".

But Zed seemed to be very flattered by their reactions. He raised his attractive but cold eyes, and said, "You already have a perfect husband. Why don't you appreciate me? Why do you want other men hug you?" Zed seriously looked at Jean. His deep eyes showed that he was a little upset.

Jean startled after she heard what Zed said. But she got back to her senses soon. She doubted if she had just misheard or misunderstood what Zed said.

Zed's tone conveyed his sadness. She did not have other men besides Zed. Jean lowered her head and frowned. Her beautiful face portrayed that she was deeply thinking. 'If I try to explain to Zed that I don't have other men besides him, he might...' Jean pondered to herself and hesitated to speak.

"Mr. Qi." A familiar voice tingled to Jean's ears. She paused and frowned even more.

She slowly turned back and unexpectedly saw Shirley, her half-sister. Shirley stood gently and quietly while holding her own hands. She smiled like a blooming flower and shyly stared at Zed. Her concern and love towards Zed were hidden in her eyes.

When Shirley saw the woman who turned around to face her, Shirley's smile suddenly froze; she immediately turned stiff. A hint of surprise showed up in Shirley's eyes. She had not met Jean for a long time. She had no idea what's going on in Jean's life and did not expect that Jean had changed so much - she became more beautiful and graceful.

What Shirley even hated more was that she and Jean wore the same dress. Their dresses had the same design and color. And what was even worse? The dress fitted to Jean very well. Jean looked far more beautiful than Shirley.

After Jean found out that their dresses were the same, her face turned grumpy. Jean looked at Shirley from head to toe and complained to herself, 'How silly! How can we have the same dress? How embarrassing! There are two ladies wearing the same dress in such a grandiose party.'

Those who did not know that they were siblings just took the situation as a coincidence. However, those who clearly knew that they were both daughters of Henry must have laughed their lungs out.

Nonetheless, Jean had already cut her connection with the Wen family since the last time in the hotel. Her only concern was the situation was not publicly announced. There might be only few people who knew it.

Shirley's eyes showed her hatred towards Jean, but it quickly disappeared. Her angry look was replaced with a fake, sweet smile. She came to Jean and held her hands. She pretended that she had a good relationship with Jean. "Sister! I haven't seen you for a long time. I missed you so much. I am very glad to meet you again here!" said Shirley cheerfully.

Jean felt quite disgusted after she heard what Shirley said. She was well aware that Shirley was really good at performing and feigning innocence. Shirley was indeed a good "actress".

"Young lady, please go away from me. I am not your sister and I also don't know you. Open your big eyes and pay close attention to your words." Jean said in a cold tone. She did not want to be nice.

Zed stood by Jean's side and took her arms off from her waist. Then, he leaned against the dining table and looked at Jean with great interest.

It had been a long time since Jean showed her fierce attitude towards others. He seemed to be so lucky to see it that time.

Shirley's face turned pale. Her beautiful smile gradually turned awful. But, she still tried her best to maintain her smile. "Sister, don't say such words in this kind of occasions. We have the same blood after all, " said Shirley while holding Jean's hands intimately.

"Get your hands off me." Jean was enraged. She wondered why those people always put her into trouble.

She had already cut her relationships with the whole Wen family. Yet Shirley still pretended to be innocent and seemed to go there to beg for her forgiveness.

"Jean!" Jade unexpectedly walked towards Jean. She wore an elegant cheongsam with blue and white porcelain designs. Though she was already in her forties, her skin was treated well; it looked very smooth. She was also in good shape which added her charm.

Jade's soft, feminine and charming attitude was clearly showed on her cheongsam dress. She looked like a queen radiating her authoritative attitude everywhere.

Jean and Shirley turned around at the same time and saw Jade. Jean looked a bit unnatural, while Shirley still kept feigning sweetness and gentleness.

Jean doubted what kind of person Shirley would pretend to be if she would know that Jade was Zed's mother.

"Who is this young lady?" Jade looked at Shirley and curiously asked.

"Hi, I am Shirley Wen, Jean's sister." Shirley introduced herself.

Jean felt disgusted with her introduction. She felt the itch to throw Shirley out, but she could do nothing but keep calm in such a formal occasion.

"Oh. So you are my in-laws' little daughter. We haven't had a meal since Zed's father and I came back." Jade smiled and said in a pleasant tone.

Shirley was a little puzzled and thought for seconds. Finally she figured out that the elegant lady in front of her was Zed's mother. All of a sudden, she pretended to be gentle and showed her politeness to Jade. She began her performance and buttered Jade up, "You are my brother-in-law's mom. If people don't know that you are his mother, they will surely think that you are his sister. Aunt, you look really beautiful and young."

"Hahaha! How sweet of you."

Shirley still wore her sweet smile. She did not give up her desire to get Zed's love. Though Jean hadn't divorce Zed yet, she didn't want to give up.

It was such a good opportunity for her to meet Zed's mother. So she thought that she should leave a good impression on her. It was very important for her to work on it. She deeply believed that Jade would soon be her mother-in-law.

"Jean, we'd better choose a good day to have a dinner..."

"Dad, mom!" Shirley saw Henry and Joy. She happily waved at them to show where she was.

Henry noticed Zed and Jean from a distance. He had also recognized that the lady standing with them was Jade, Zed's mom.

It was a big opportunity for him to connect and have good relationship with the Qi family. He couldn't let it easily pass.

So he laughed, walked towards Jade and reached his hand before saying, "Hmmm… You must be my daughter's mother-in-law. Aren't you?"

"You are right! You are Jean's father, right?" Jade kindly asked.

"Yes, I am. Our Jean must have brought a lot of trouble to you." Henry politely said. He rarely smiled, but this time, he wore a very big smile.

Joy immediately became friendly and kind when she knew that the lady was Zed's mother. "You are Jean's mother-in-law. I'm so sorry. I didn't recognize you. I heard that you went abroad. When did you just come back? Jean did not tell us that you already came back. This child is getting wildly out of wing! If we had known that you were back, we could have definitely met you and given you some treat, " said Joy hypocritically.
