Dump Husband and Run Away with Baby - C208

Yan City.

Lei Zichen had already been chased by the media to the point where he couldn’t stand it anymore. He didn’t want to create such a huge scene, but he was helpless as Irene frequently showed photos and information to the media, allowing the media to understand every step of their progress.

Naturally, he knew the reason why Irene did this. On one hand, it was because she was eager to share her joy with the outside world. On the other hand, it was because she wanted to create pressure through the media and public opinion.

Lei Zichen was extremely busy. He didn’t dare to slack off in the wedding for even a second, and the acquisition plan for the West Hill Villa Group was also proceeding in an orderly manner.

Lei Zichen’s plan was based on the management plans of the senior shareholders. He had compiled a detailed plan. Of course, the first step was to start with the surrounding industries of the West Hill Estate Group.

At that time, Xishan villa was Tao Ran’s handiwork and his style of doing things had always been one that was willing to help the weak. Naturally, the small scale industries around them had all been given to some small companies that were not well-known, but were still considered to have potential to operate. Even though these small companies had developed to different degrees, their scale still lingered between small and medium-sized enterprises.

As long as a company like this was able to attract them, they would naturally bow their heads in submission. Although the Lei Clan would have suffered losses in the past, Lei Zichen still firmly believed that this initial investment was essential.

Obviously, the current acquisition plan was already beginning to bear fruit, and some of the companies were already beginning to waver. As long as he worked hard, Lei Zichen believed that the phrase ‘a thousand miles of dike destroyed in an ant’s nest’ was the best explanation for his project.

However, what was strange was that with Tao Weiguang’s perception, he didn’t realize that his trump card project was under threat. Lei Zichen had no choice but to focus all of his attention in this matter, fearing that there might be a trap involved.

“Ring, ring, ring …” As Lei Zichen was busy, the phone suddenly rang.

“Hello.” Lei Zichen picked up the phone, but his eyes never left his documents.

“Brother Zichen, it’s me.” Elene’s gentle and sweet voice, however, didn’t affect Lei Zichen’s concentration in the slightest.

“Oh, what is it?” Lei Zichen asked absent-mindedly.

“You were the one who promised to accompany him to Bertie to test his wedding dress.” Seeing that she was about to succeed, she became more and more less cautious than she used to be. Occasionally, she would even dare to act like a little miss with Lei Zi, making it so that she could live a little longer. However, Lei Zichen had satisfied all of them one by one.

“Oh, I’ll pick you up that night.” This was already the fifth time that Irene went to test her wedding dress, and she had already tried out almost all of the wedding dresses in the shop. During this period, she had also made appointments with quite a few designers, and had seen quite a few famous works, but she was still not satisfied with any of them.

The more brazenly Irene’s nature was exposed to Lei Zichen, the more Lei Zichen would doubt his choice, even to the whole world. Tao Tian looked kind and innocent, but didn’t want to be so cruel, and Irene acted so willfully, but she acted so innocently.

Lei Zichen let out a bitter laugh, “Irene, I’m very busy right now. If there’s nothing else, let’s not talk about it. I’ll come pick you up tonight.” With that, Lei Zichen hung up the phone, allowing himself to be immersed in his work. It was only when working that Lei Zichen felt peaceful for a moment, as if the whole world was none of his business. Only in front of his eyes, the work at hand, the projects, plans …

When it was time to get off work, the afterglow of the setting sun dyed Lei Zichen’s window red, yet he still subconsciously lowered his head to organize his documents. Even though Tao Jiaxi’s family was already in the decline, other people couldn’t relax even a little.

“Lei Dong, you still haven’t left?” Wisely, who had gotten off work, passed by Lei Zichen’s office and asked with a surprised expression, “It’s already time to get off work, aren’t you and Miss Irene going to test out your wedding dress?”

“It’s true!” Lei Zichen raised his head up from Cheng Shan’s documents. He looked at Wisely in surprise, then looked at his watch, “Oh my god, it’s already this time. Let’s go. Wisely, you should leave first. I need to pack up and get off work.” Lei Zichen smiled, but there was no hint of joy in his expression.

After packing his things, Lei Zichen stood up and left the office. At this moment, the Lei Clan office building was completely empty. Only a few guards and cleaners were patrolling back and forth. They greeted Lei Zichen with a nod of their heads.

Lei Zichen suddenly had a strange feeling. It was as if he was in another world and he was the only one who didn’t have this complicated and mundane world. He also didn’t know why he didn’t have any joy in getting married.

“Ring, ring, ring, ring …” A hasty ringing of the phone interrupted Lei Zichen’s meditation. It was Irene.

“Brother Zichen, I’ve been waiting for a long time, why haven’t you come?” Irene’s voice was sweet with a hint of impatience.

“Oh, I’ve just gathered some data and forgot the time. I’m already in the parking lot, wait for me for a bit.” Lei Zichen adjusted his voice so that everything looked relaxed and natural.

“Seriously, you don’t place any importance on my date at all. I’m going to test my wedding dress with you.” Elene raised her voice to express her displeasure.

As the date of the wedding approached, Irene felt that victory was in sight. All her waiting and patience was worth it. Right now, she regarded Lei Zichen as a close man who could reveal his true self as he wished.

“It’s my fault, it’s my fault.” Lei Zichen didn’t explain anything. As for the princess’ temper that Irene had recently revealed, he just said, “It’s my fault.” He didn’t want to argue, didn’t want to explain, just let Irene be happy.

“I knew I was wrong, yet I came out so late. The truth is, everyone in our company has left. I’m the only one left, I don’t know how desolate it is.” Seeing Lei Zichen apologize, Irene felt a little proud, so she added another sentence.

“Alright, let’s stop talking. I’m going to start driving.” Lei Zichen didn’t want to continue with Irene like this. He didn’t want to talk about nutrition anymore, so he hurriedly hung up the phone and got into the car.

From the start of the wedding ceremony until now, Lei Zichen had always been a stranger watching the show. It was as if the person who was going to get married wasn’t him, but someone he wasn’t related to.

He was familiar with every step of the preparations for the wedding. Everything that had happened in the past had been done with his heart, and he wished that he could do it to the extreme.

But now, all of this made him feel completely bored, and he could only move about mechanically.

Lei Zichen frowned as he drove as he drove. This was the most common expression he had, especially after he returned from S City. It was as if nothing in this world could make him happy.

The car moved very fast, and in a short while, it arrived at Irene’s office. After making a phone call, Irene hurriedly ran out from the office.

“Brother Zichen, you really made me wait for you for so long. Do you know that no one is willing to accompany me when everyone is gone? Hmph, you’re a bad guy, but you actually forgot to test your wedding dress. Sigh, I’m really angry.” The moment Irene got into the car, she started chattering non-stop. On the other hand, Lei Zichen was still frowning and not saying a word.

“Brother Zichen, why aren’t you saying anything?” Irene saw that her mouth was parched, but Lei Zichen didn’t say anything, instead feeling a bit uncomfortable.

“Nothing, you’ve already said everything. What else do you need me to say?” Lei Zichen indifferently said. His face was expressionless as he stared at the side as he drove the car.

Seeing that it was boring, Irene closed her mouth and stopped talking.

The car drove into Shijin Street and stopped in front of Patty’s door. This was the fifth time they had come here. Irene was clearly familiar with the environment and procedures here, so she loosened her seat belt and walked inside.

Seeing Irene standing in a row, the waiters in the room greeted her politely, “Miss Ai, you’ve come again. Welcome.”

The head waiter welcomed them with a face full of smiles, “Mr. Lei, you’ve come too. I’m so good to you. I’m so envious of you.” The supervisor looked at Lei Zichen, who was standing behind him, and continued.

“It’s okay, it’s just that I’m always late or something. It makes me very unhappy.” Irene wasn’t angry enough, she would never give up when she got the chance.

The supervisor was slightly surprised. He looked at Lei Zichen’s expressionless face, not knowing what happened between the two, so he changed the topic, “Miss Ai, I’ve already left the wedding gowns that you said I would compare them with carefully. Please follow me.” The supervisor said as he brought Irene to the VIP fitting room.

Lei Zichen was waiting beside. He was bored out of his mind as he flipped through the pages of a magazine, looking at the TV screen beside him.

On the television, the financial news was being broadcasted, as well as the news about the marriage between him and Irene that he was not surprised by. On the television, the financial news was being broadcasted, as well as the news about the marriage between him and Irene that he was not surprised about the public news about his privacy.

When he thought of Tao Shi, Lei Zichen’s heart skipped a beat again. It wasn’t just because of that person who hurt him so deeply from far away, but also because of this unfathomable old man. Even though his goal of buying the West Mountain villa group was already clear, but Tao Weiguang still didn’t show any signs of defending himself and retaliating.

“Brother Zichen, do you think I’m beautiful?” Lei Zichen was thinking about all the things related to Tao Weiguang. Irene had already changed her wedding dress, excitedly rushing out of the fitting room. In front of Lei Zichen were all sorts of shapes, and she was extremely excited.
