1 Year Of Beginning

Who Zhang Liang chooses as his wife is never your business.

Never your business.

The phrase struck deeply in Miss Su's ear. In the past, she had tried to ask her grandfather to set her up with Zhang Liang because she wanted to be the one to win him over. Many people admired him because of how much he made the company advance in just a few years.

However, Zhang Liang always stood up on the blind date that the older generation set up. She was patient and asked her grandfather to set up another date. However, Zhang Liang never appeared. Not even in a single one. This made her frustrated.

Why?

Why wouldn't he come?

Even if he didn't want the blind date, couldn't he come and say that he didn't want to accept?

When she was unable to accept the treatment anymore, Miss Su had no other choice but to come to the office and asked him directly. He treated her coldly, not any different than many other women who tried to get close to him.

This was why she couldn't accept when she saw a woman managed to get close to him. And that woman was actually a nobody. She was just an ordinary worker in his company who happened to meet with him because she was working there. And they grow close.

"You're not worthy!" Miss Su yelled.

Feng Mian crossed her arm. "Who are you to deem me unworthy?"

"I…I'm Su Anya! The most beautiful woman in the world! The heir of Su Family…"

"I know all of that. The reporters are quite diligent when giving reports about family members of influential families," Feng Mian cut off Miss Su, Su Anya, words. "What I want to ask is who are you to Zhang Liang?"

"I…"

Towards this question, Su Anya was at loss. She didn't really have any connection whatsoever to Zhang Liang aside from one sided crush from her. There was no business partnership with Zhang Liang's company too. After all, the only collaboration with Su Family was on the side company that Zhang Liang managed back then.

Feng Mian looked at Su Anya and continued coldly, "Since you don't have any relationship, you're the one who shouldn't interfere in his life. Whatever he chose and decided are all up to him. Those around him could only give suggestions, but they couldn't decide."

Su Anya stood frozen in her place. Her face flushed in embarrassment. Even though Feng Mian was true, she didn't want to admit it.

"You wench!"

Swish!

Su Anya raised her hand, attempted to slap Feng Mian. Seeing the incoming slap, Feng Mian wanted to run, but her body couldn't react fast. She knew that it would hit her for sure.

Grab!

"Whoa there, you're still as violent as ever."

A playful and childish tone, yet at the same time familiar entered Feng Mian's ears. She could see Su Anya's hand stopped a few centimeters away from her face and beside her, Zhang Ai was holding Su Anya's wrist.

Zhang Ai arched her eyebrows. "Are you sure you're a woman, Su Anya?"

"Shut up!" Su Anya bellowed. She attempted to retract her hand back but she realized that she couldn't move it at all. Dread began to gather in her face. It was then she remembered that all Zhang Family members, including Zhang Ai, were forced to train martial arts. Even though Zhang Ai looked extremely amiable and playful, this woman was capable of beating a grown up man because of her martial arts.

"Tsk, tsk, what a violent woman. Well, I can say for sure that you're truly a dirty woman who shouldn't have been here," Zhang Ai took out her phone and showed the screen to Su Anya. "Good bye, Miss Su."

Feng Mian didn't know what Zhang Ai showed, but Su Anya's eyes turned lifeless the moment she saw it. In the next moment, her legs trembled as she fell on the dirty restroom's floor. Tears began to gather in her eyes.

Zhang Ai harrumphed. "You only cry now and not before you take action. Da Jie, Er Jie, let's go."

"What are you doing here, Xiao Ai?" Lu Di La asked calmly. After she had helped Feng Mian a bit, she decided to just watch from the side. She didn't expect that the little wife Zhang Liang picked for himself actually had quite the temper. When she was angry, she didn't filter her words anymore, yet each word was filled with reasons and power behind.

Lu Di La always thought of Feng Mian as a little sister she had to protect, but now, she found out that Feng Mian was much more interesting than what she thought.

Feng Mian didn't realize it, but her speech and how she handled the infuriating Su Anya had made the two women accept her completely. Before, they mostly accepted her because of Zhang Liang. But now, they genuinely liked Feng Mian. Women had to be strong in their own way and knew when to hold their ground and to retreat back.

Zhang Ai grinned. "Liang Ge is worried that Er Jie didn't return back for a long time, so he asked me to fetch you."

"Ah, sorry for the trouble." Feng Mian was surprised. She didn't mean to stay here for a long time too, but because of Su Anya's appearance, she was delayed. The three of them walked out of the restroom one after another.

"No problem. Next time someone creates trouble for you, you can just call me. I'll surely beat…"

"If you beat another woman, Father will ground you and forbid you from shooting the drama, Xiao Ai."

Zhang Ai's body froze. She turned around and saw Zhang Liang stood at the other end of the corridor. Seeing the cold look on Zhang Liang's face, she knew that her brother was serious with her.

"Liang Ge, you know that I no longer beat people around. Besides, if I try to, you're just going to stop me," Zhang Ai reasoned.

She might have learned martial arts, but it was nothing compared to both Zhang Xue and Zhang Liang. The two of them were on a completely different level than her. At first, they didn't learn martial arts because they wanted it but because of their safety. After all, they couldn't live peacefully when so many people were trying to target their lives.

"Go inside. Father is already waiting." Zhang Liang sighed and pointed to the back.

"Kay~."

"I'll be going first, Liang." Lu Di La also walked past Zhang Liang into the hall again. There were several people looking in their direction, but they soon got busy with whatever they were doing again.

Feng Mian looked at Zhang Liang timidly. "Uhm, I…"

"I heard everything."

Feng Mian: "…" aren't the doors made to be soundproof?

Seeing that Feng Mian was staring at the door, Zhang Liang chuckled. He looked to the hall and saw some people were still looking towards this direction and walked closer to Feng Mian, who stepped back and bumped to the wall behind her.

His left hand was placed on the left side of her head while his right hand touched her chin lightly. His black eyes stared straight to her similarly black eyes. She could see herself in his eyes, looking all timid as she replied his gaze. Slowly, he opened his mouth, "Can I kiss you?"
