Strategic Marriage

Chapter - 09

In Xiao Estate

Everyone had gathered in the living room as Xiao Shen had something to announce. Xiao Zhan was also present there. He was sitting with Xiao Wei and Xiao Ruyi.

"Grandpa, what do you want to say?" Zhan asked and Shen cleared his throat to get others attention.

"I have something important to announce." Shen said.

"What is it?" Xiao Xiang asked curiously and Shen took a deep breath.

"I have decided to collaborate with the Wang Empire through an arrange marriage." Shen said making others shock.

"What?" Everyone said in unison.

"Keep quiet." Shen said while glaring at everyone.

"Why do you suddenly want to collaborate with the Wangs? That's through an arrange marriage?" Zhan asked curiously.

"Because of the benefits of Xiao Empire." Shen said coldly an Zhan nodded his head.

"You said arrange marriage. Then who will marry whom?" Xiao Xin asked curiously and Shen glanced at Zhan.

"Xiao Zhan will marry Wang Xing." Shen said and Zhan became shocked while Wei was happy.

"That's good then." Wei said as he knew that if Zhan tied with the Wangs through a marriage then Wangs would helped Zhan if anyone tried to snatch Zhan's position as the CEO of Xiao Empire.

"It's not good at all." Zhan said.

"Why?" Ruyi asked while frowning.

"Mom, dad. You know that I have a girlfriend. I am planning to marry her." Zhan said.

"See, Xiao Zhan. I don't have any problem with whoever you date. But I warned you before if your lover can't give us any business benefits then forget about marrying her." Wei said.

"Chen Li is the third daughter of Chen Industry. And Chen Industry is a big industry. If I marry her then I can get benefits from her father's company." Zhan said.

"As you said, Chen Ling is the third daughter of Chen Industry. She might be the daughter of Chairman Chen but she doesn't have any official position in her family's company. Besides, she is not even an important member of her family because of her siblings who were elder than her and more successful than her." Ruyi said.

"Exactly. Compared to Wang Xing who is in charge of hotels and resorts of Wang Empire, Chen Ling is nothing in front of her. So, forget about Chen Ling and marry Wang Xing." Wei said coldly and Zhan just angrily stared at Wei.

"A-Zhan." Shen called and Zhan sighed before turning to his grandfather.

"If you don't want to marry Wang Xing then I won't force you." Shen said.

"Dad..." Wei stopped as Shen raised his palm to stop him.

"I know you are a sensible man. So, think before refusing the proposal. I am giving you two days to think about it." Shen said and Zhan nodded his head.

"Thank you, Grandpa." Zhan said and Shen patted his shoulder.

"If Xiao Zhan refuse to marry Wang Xing then what will happen to the collaboration with the Wangs?" Xiao Xin asked curiously.

"Then Xiao Sheng will marry Wang Xing." Shen said and the others were surprised.

"What?" Sheng asked in disbelief and Shen nodded his head.
