My Dangerous Billionaire Husband

The assistant's voice was trembling due to shock. "There has been a wave of consensus that has been making its way through the internet recently. Millions of netizens have been asking Ning Qing to participate in the red wine competition…"

"What?" Zhou Zhilei's chest started to pant, and she chided him sternly. "So, you did not take any action? Did you let the matter develop by its own?"

"Young Miss…I… Ning Qing now is different from what she used to be in the past. She is actually the most influential person in the entertainment industry today. She has millions of fans behind her, and she has the halo of being Mrs. Lu above her head. Now, her merely wearing an evening gown alone can push the sales of any clothing brand. Don't even talk about her Yi Fan red wine…. Young Miss, we cannot force our way with her; we are unable to afford that risk!"

Unable to afford that risk?

Unable to afford that risk!

A bout of fire came alight in Zhou Zhilei's heart. It felt as if it were going to burn her alive. She could hear the words Ning Qing had told her eight days ago in her ears — You seem not to know who I, Ning Qing am.

That was right. In this span of these three years, what kind of person Ning Qing has turned into?

Three years ago, she was still a minor character. She was insulted and had many people roll their eyes at her. Three years later, she battled her stepmother and brought her mother back into the Ning family. She overcame the period of time when Lu Shaoming had lost his memories, and she made him fall in love with her once again. She overcame every obstacle that prevented the Lu family from opening their doors, and they even opened their main doors happily to welcome her…

She transformed from an actress to a Goddess, then a director, and now, she opened a winery…

She never tried to aim for a goal out of her grasp. Every step she took was firm and stable. She's built a house for herself, and now, she used three years time to build a ninety nine floor building for herself. Finally, she wanted to build a skyscraper.

She wanted this skyscraper to pierce the clouds.

She wanted to turn into a legend.

Zhou Zhilei's heart turned cold. She did not know when Ning Qing started to like red wine. She thought that Ning Qing was only studying it for fun…

She actually wanted to open a winery!

But, why she did have to like red wine?

Was it to compete with her?

What did she still have left? She was only left with the Zhou family winery. Why did Ning Qing still have to barge in on her territory right now?

Red wine was her stage to shine and to attract others' attention.

No, she would not allow Ning Qing to steal her thunder in her own domain.

Zhou Zhilei forced herself to calm down. She stared at her assistant and ordered him, "The matters involving Ning Qing are not allowed to go into my grandfather's ears. Do you hear that?"

The assistant froze and said, "But Old Master would find out about it sooner or later."

"Then it is also a matter of time, whether it is early or late. Before the red wine competition, you can never let my grandfather know about Ning Qing's presence. I would never allow Ning Qing to participate in the red wine competition!"

The assistant did not dare retaliate, and nodded his head immediately, "Yes, Young Miss."

At this moment, "Zhilei." Zhou Heng called her. "James is here."

Zhou Zhilei turned her gaze sideways. She saw a British person walking out of the main hall of the airport. He was tall and lanky. He had a handsome face, and the key thing was, he had a pair of clear blue eyes. James was here.

Zhou Zhilei quickly put on a gentle and friendly smile and walked forward.

She did not know beforehand that this red wine sommelier that was extremely renowned internationally was so handsome. She only knew that James was a member of the royal family in England. He had the purest blood of the royal family in England flowing in his veins.

Zhou Heng stretched his hand out. "James, it has been such a long time since we last met. I welcome you to China."

James and Zhou Heng shook hands, he smiled politely as he said, "Old Master, it has been almost a year since we last met. I would definitely need to participate in your red wine competition."

"Thank you James for your support." As he spoke, Zhou Heng patted James' shoulder before he introduced Zhou Zhilei, "This is my granddaughter, Zhilei."

Zhou Zhilei's eyes were a little hot. She was very satisfied with this James.

As for which part of him that she was satisfied with… Mother said that she should look for an appropriate person to marry, and she felt that this James is the most appropriate.

He had the mighty and royal status from the English Royal family. He had the status in the world of red wine, and he had a handsome exterior…

Zhou Zhilei curled the corners of her lips up. She stretched out her right hand. "James, how are you? Nice to meet you."

James glanced at Zhou Zhilei. He nodded his head slightly, and his attitude was distant and cold.

Zhou Zhilei's hand was frozen in mid air, because James did not shake her hand.

"Hehe." Zhou Heng quickly came to relax the awkward atmosphere, "Zhilei, James does not shake the hands of people he does not know well. It was you who was impolite."

Zhou Zhilei took this opportunity and said, "Oh, I didn't know about that. James, please go ahead. There is a car waiting outside; we have booked a five star luxury hotel for you."

"That's right, James. We will chat as we walk." Zhou Heng agreed.

"Wait a minute," At this moment, James waved his hand as he turned his body to look behind him. "I still have another friend who has yet to come out."

Friend?

Zhou Zhilei lifted her gaze to have a look.

Upon looking, her entire body froze.

Ning Qing was here.

Ning Qing wore a cherry blossom short skirt today. The skirt came above her kneecaps. Her calf was slim and fair, and there was a pair of white crystal high heeled shoes on her feet.

This kind of cherry blossom pink made Ning Qing look attractive like the peach in the month of April. Her curls were all let down lazily, and her small, exquisite face that was the size of a palm had a big pair of sunglasses on it. Xiao Zhou was behind her, holding onto the luggage, and she walked out confidently.

"Ning Qing." James waved his hand to her passionately.

Zhou Zhilei saw the extreme difference that James was showing between her and Ning Qing, and she hated it extremely as she broke her nail in the middle of her palm while she clenched her fist.

Zhou Heng saw Ning Qing, and his eyes brightened up. He did not expect to meet this young lady again today here. It was probably a few months ago when he met her that rainy night in the Zhou family winery, and he had not forgotten about her at all.

Zhou Heng took a step forward and said, "James, this is your friend?"

"Yeah, she is. I made a new friend on the plane. Her name is Ning Qing. She is also very passionate about red wine. Just now, she invited me to have a taste of the red wine that she has brewed herself. The taste is extremely pleasant."

There were not too many people that could get this compliment from James, Zhou Heng was taken aback, and looked at Ning Qing in the eyes.

Ning Qing removed the pair of sunglasses on her face. She waved her hand. "Hi, James…" She also froze when she saw Zhou Heng. She ran forward quickly and curled the corners of her lips into a sweet smile. "Grandpa who guards the door, how come you are also here today? It has been a long time since we last met. Grandpa looks even more youthful than before."

Zhou Heng immediately broke out into huge laughter. "This young girl! Your mouth is still as sweet as before."

Zhou Zhilei stood a side while she was flabbergasted. Not only did Ning Qing know James, but she actually knew Grandpa?

She was building up so many barriers, but she didn't expect Ning Qing to have friendship with her grandfather!

Zhou Zhilei went forward quickly. With a smile on her face, she said, "Mrs. Lu, what you do mean by 'grandfather who guards the door?' This person here is my grandfather, Zhou Heng. He is the world renowned king of wineries."

Ning Qing's expression froze. "Grandfather, you…."

She did not dare believe.

This grandfather was actually the world renowned winery owner Zhou Heng?

Zhou Heng lifted his eyebrows up before nodding his head.

Ning Qing's face quickly turned red. She placed both of her small hands in front of her body. She politely bowed towards Zhou Heng formally. "Old Master Zhou, I am very sorry. I did not recognize you. I still thought that you were…"

The grandfather who guarded the doors….

The more Ning Qing thought about it, the more awkward she felt. This Zhou family winery belonged to him, but she had thought that he was the security guard.

Zhou Heng broke out into laughter. "Young girl, how come after you knew that I am Zhou Heng, you have become even more polite? I have gotten used to hearing you address me as grandfather. Now that I hear you address me as Old Master Zhou, it sounds so distant and formal."

Zhou Zhilei felt her chest bleed. This old thing that had to die gave up on his own granddaughter and did not want her, and he actually allowed this evil person Ning Qing to address him as grandfather?

He had such a great relationship with Ning Qing?

Ning Qing looked at Zhou Zhilei's cunning expression before she batted her eyes playfully towards Zhou Heng. "Old Master Zhou, in the past, I did not know your background. Now that I know, you are my idol. I do not dare to recklessly call you 'Grandpa' any longer. If any other person hears it, they would mistake me for wanting to make use of your status in seek for more prestige."

At this moment, James said, "Ning Qing makes sense. She is here to participate in the red wine competition. If she address you as grandfather at the competition, others would definitely misunderstand."

Zhou Heng looked at Ning Qing, "Little girl, you want to participate in the red wine competition? Have you registered your participation?"

Mentioning the words, "Registered", Zhou Zhilei's heart tightened up. She was afraid that Ning Qing would mention the previous time when she had purposely made life difficult for her in front of everyone.

Ning Qing noticed all of Zhou Zhilei's expressions. "Yeah!" She pouted her red lips while she innocently, "Old Master Zhou, these few days I was overseas on a business trip. I missed the registration time for your red wine competition. I don't know if Old Master make an exception and allow me to participate in your red wine competition?"

Zhou Zhilei wanted to talk, but at this moment: "Sure, of course it is fine." James immediately said, "Old Master Zhou, I can use my own honour to guarantee Ning Qing. Old Master Zhou, the wine that Ning Qing brews would definitely not disappoint you. The slogan of our competition is to search for the talents of tomorrow, and to nurture the next generation. Believe me, Ning Qing is the person Old Master Zhou is looking for!"

"Okay." Zhou Heng agreed without any hesitation. "I have known James for over 10 years now. This is the first time that I heard him compliment anyone like that. Ning Qing, I welcome you to enter the red wine competition. I will anticipate the red wine that you have personally brewed."

Ning Qing broke out in a smile just like a flower. "Old Master Zhou, thank you."

Zhou Zhilei was extremely angry. She did not allow Ning Qing to enter the competition, but Ning Qing was good. She seduced James and made him vouch for her. She was friends with grandpa and directly jumped over her to enter the red wine competition.

This woman was really capable and mighty. She has underestimated Ning Qing.

"Old Master Zhou, James, I still have other matters, so I will be leaving. Let's meet again at the competition." Ning Qing waved her hand.

"Okay, bye bye."

Ning Qing brought Xiao Zhou along as she walked towards the main doors. She passed by Zhou Zhilei, and Ning Qing had a brilliant smile on her face. She placed her fair white hand before her chest. She subtly gave a small finger towards Zhou Zhilei — Low.

Xiao Zhou broke out into huge laughter with a mocking tone.

Zhou Zhilei: "…"

…

James was in the luxury car in front of them. Zhou Zhilei sat together with Zhou Heng in the luxury car behind.

The butler that was seated in the front passenger seat handed some documents over to Zhou Heng. Zhou Heng bent his body forwards, and the both of them were conversing softly.

Zhou Zhilei scanned the documents. Ning Qing's photo was in the documents.

Zhou Zhilei's heart tightened up, this old thing that had yet to die was always like this. He was too sensitive. Ning Qing appeared before him first, and she met and had some interactions with James to enter the red wine competition. Although this old thing that has yet to die not have any expressions on his face, secretly, he had sent someone to check on Ning Qing a long time ago.

The butler had first hand news.

This old thing that had yet to die had the best investigation team. In these years, they were experienced as they searched for Dou Dou, and they got even more and more proficient. This was also the reason why she could not lay her hands on Zhou Corporation all these years.

Although this old thing that had yet to die spent all his time at home, but he was able to control the workings of the entire world.
