72: Proposing to the world's richest man

No matter how dissatisfied Qu Wanxin was, she was taken away.

Jiang Li and Fu Xiangqi stood at the entrance of Villa No. 1, watching the person being taken away by the police.

When Qu Wanxin saw the two of them outside, she immediately tried to open the car door to get out.

However, she didn't succeed because she was held down by the police in the squad car.

A police officer approached Jiang Li. "Miss Jiang, is this the person?"

Jiang Li nodded. "Yes."

"Alright, we will investigate thoroughly."

"Mm."

Jiang Li watched the police car drive away, unsure of what the subsequent outcome would be.

Not long after arriving at the station, Qu Wanxin confessed that her good friend, Jiang Huayi, was the one who told her.

Jiang Huayi was subsequently brought to the police station for questioning.

Jiang Huayi naturally wouldn't admit to it.

As a result, the two of them started a physical fight right there in the police station.

It took a great deal of effort for the police to separate them.

After being separated, their hair, clothes, and faces were a complete mess.

Their hair was disheveled, and their clothes were covered in creases.

Some police officers even had scratch marks from fingernails on their faces.

The moment they were separated, neither spoke, but with just a glance, they were about to start fighting again.

One police officer couldn't take it anymore. "This is a police station! If you fight again, you'll all be detained!"

Hearing this, the two of them immediately fell silent.

In the end, the two of them confessed everything. Not only were they fined, but they were also detained... On Jiang Li's side, she arrived at the Jiang Group, where Tang Yuanmu had already compiled a list of all the companies involved.

"What are the conflicts of interest with these companies?"

"This Li Family Company likely regretted their decision a bit after seeing how successful Xiyuan Hotel became."

"Why do you say that?"

Tang Yuanmu told her everything he knew. "The boss of this Li Family Company bought the farmhouse. Something happened in the middle of it, so he resold it. He probably didn't expect there to be an underground spring."

Jiang Li heard this and asked, "Was he the biggest instigator behind the scenes?"

"No, he's secondary. The most significant one is the Zhao Family Company."

"The Zhao Family Company? I remember they started out in the hotel business!"

"Yes, Chairman Jiang. The Zhao Family Company had a hotel a few kilometers away from Xiyuan Farmhouse. Because there's a mountain behind Xiyuan Hotel, many people go there for hiking, so there were many residents. But once Xiyuan Hotel was built, the Zhao Family Company's hotel saw no customers and eventually closed down."

Jiang Li entered the office and sat in her chair. "Xiyuan Hotel only affects that specific area; as for other places, it hasn't affected them at all. Since they're so bored, let's build a new hotel right across from their hotel. We'll call it Xiyuan Hotel as well."

"Yes, Chairman Jiang."

Tang Yuanmu thought to himself that the Chairman was wealthy anyway.

She didn't lack the funds.

"As for this Li Family Company, it wouldn't be too much to snatch a few of their business deals, right?"

Tang Yuanmu thought that the Li Family Company was small to begin with and only had a few deals every few months. "Not too much at all."

"Good, then let's do it that way."

A few months later, the boss of the Li Family Company and the boss of the Zhao Family Company both came to the Jiang Group, begging for mercy.

Unfortunately, Jiang Li wasn't there.

Tang Yuanmu saw the two of them downstairs when he came to work.

"President Tang, President Tang, can you contact Chairman Jiang? We really know we were wrong."

"Yes, we truly know our mistake. Can you ask Chairman Jiang to show some mercy?"

Tang Yuanmu heard them and said, "CEO Li, CEO Zhao, I really can't make the decision on this matter. Besides our Chairman Jiang's handiwork, there's also the Fu Group's involvement. Did you forget that our Chairman Jiang's boyfriend is the young master of the Fu Group?"

Hearing this, the two of them finally realized how grave a mistake their original decision had been.

Forget the young master of the Fu Family; they couldn't even see Chairman Jiang herself.

The two had no choice but to accept their fate. They quickly minimized their losses and left the premises.

Back then, for the sake of a little profit, they had hired a large number of internet trolls to smear Jiang Li online.

They just didn't expect that Jiang Li would have so many fans; they simply couldn't win.

The movie she participated in back then, although she only had ten minutes of screen time, had gained Jiang Li a lot of fans.

Of course, Jiang Li only had that one movie and never acted again.

Fu Xiangqi took Jiang Li on a trip to the Philippines.

During this month, Fu Xiangqi successfully found the girl Jiang Nan liked, Xia Anqian.

He also conveyed Jiang Nan's feelings of admiration. As for how far the two had developed now, he didn't know.

In any case, they were now boyfriend and girlfriend, so he immediately brought Jiang Li to the Philippines, where divorce is not permitted after marriage.

Moreover, today was the auspicious day chosen by both sets of parents to register their marriage.

Jiang Li looked at the famous Philippine attraction, Rizal Park.

The environment was quiet and peaceful with a sea breeze blowing, making it very suitable for resting.

Fu Xiangqi went to get some fruit for Jiang Li and left for a moment.

Jiang Li felt that Qiqi was taking a long time, so she got up to look for him.

Before she had gone far, a little girl in a princess dress handed her a rose.

Jiang Li didn't pay much attention and took it in her hand. Then, a little boy in a white suit grabbed her clothes and subsequently handed her a rose.

Jiang Li took the rose, and the little boy immediately ran away.

One after another, many children came to give her flowers.

Before long, the flowers in her hands had become quite heavy.

After waiting for a while and seeing no more flowers coming, a group of people approached. they placed a veil on her head and bundled the flowers together, turning them into a large bouquet.

Fu Xiangqi arrived before Jiang Li, holding an exquisite bouquet of roses.

He knelt on one knee and took out a ring with his other hand.

Seeing this, how could Jiang Li not know what was happening?

Her parents and family, as well as Fu Xiangqi's family, had all arrived to witness this moment.

"Lili, I want you to have someone to rely on for the rest of your life. I want to help you with everything. Lili, are you willing to marry me?"

Jiang Li smiled and said, "I am."

Hearing this, Fu Xiangqi immediately placed the ring on Jiang Li's finger.

This ring was specially designed by Fu Xiangqi and was unique in the world.

Inside, it even bore the initials of the two: 'L&Q'.

After putting on the ring, Fu Xiangqi directly picked her up, tilted his head, and kissed his beloved.

Jiang Li responded to him as well.

On this same day, the two registered their marriage.

Divorce is not allowed in the Philippines, which is why Fu Xiangqi specifically chose this place.

Father Jiang, Mother Jiang, and the others all offered their congratulations.

Jiang He and Jiang Yan were also particularly happy.

Fu Youchi, He Yue, and Shen Yuan were also very joyful.

They had been traveling around the Philippines together these past few days to give the young couple some space.

Jiang He and Xie Huaian also enjoyed their time traveling here.

As did Jiang Yan and Mo Jinnan, and Jiang Nan and Xia Anqian.

Soon, back home, the Fu Group and Jiang Group broke the news of the two registering their marriage.

There was even another piece of major news: Fu Xiangqi had become the world's richest person even before inheriting the Fu Group.

The reason he became the world's richest person was that everything Fu Xiangqi had researched during this period was extremely popular globally; one could say Fu Xiangqi had directly monopolized these sectors.

Coupled with his investments in some foreign companies, all of it added up to make him leap to the position of the world's richest person.

Furthermore, Jiang Li became the only 'rich, beautiful, and successful' woman on the global rankings.

Even without counting her companies, just based on the daily funds from the system, Jiang Li was the person with the most cash in the world.
