Chairman Husband, Too Boorish - 84

Chapter 84 : You? What do you call me? Come on, call me again!

Perhaps because he saw Yan Liang staring at him all the time, Chu Yi Sheng frowned. He didn't see her speak for a long time. He coughed lightly, and his handsome brows were already stained with a bit of impatience. "Miss, are you okay?"

Could it be that she was knocked stupid by the collision?

Or, was she planning to blackmail him?

But looking at her gentle and quiet look, she didn't seem like the kind of person with ulterior motives. Chu Yi Sheng just wanted to resolve the matter as soon as possible.

Yan Liang then lowered her eyes. After living in the society for many years, she still has some of the most basic abilities of observing words and expressions.

What's more, having dealt with men like Liang Xi Cheng who were deep and unpredictable, the expression on Chu Yi Sheng's face that flashed across his eyebrows just now represented something that Yan Liang knew well.

".... I'm fine." She secretly tried her best to get up, she tried several times, but it was all in vain.

Seeing Chu Yi Sheng squatting next to her, but showing no intention of reaching out to help her, Yan Liang couldn't help feeling a bit suffocated, and said angrily: "I'm really fine. I accidentally crossed the road without being careful and got hit by a car. Don't worry, I won't blackmail you. You can leave now."

Chu Yi Sheng really didn't expect that this seemingly soft and frail little woman would actually have a bit of arrogance in her bones.

At this time, he originally thought that even if she didn't blackmail him, he would still take her to the hospital ....

And she actually let him go?

She asked him to leave, but he didn't want to leave.

Raising his eyebrows, Chu Yi Sheng watched her little movements leisurely, but he didn't speak or make any movements, but he was curious in his heart——

This woman, when will she ask for help?

Yan Liang was lying on the ground in such a disheveled position, which must be indecent. Unfortunately, she couldn't stand up again, and the instigator beside her, with a playful smile on his lips, just squatted and looked at it without even touching her.

This Chu Yi Sheng!

No wonder she had heard people said before that Young Master from the Far East Group was low-key in his dealings with others, but his methods are ruthless.

It is said that he is currently sitting in a position in the Far East, and he still stepped on his brother to ascend.

Yan Liang thought that she really couldn't afford to offend such a person.

It's just that she can't offend and also can't provoke, so why should he made her beg him? What's the point?

She already felt very aggrieved today. How could someone she didn't even know, come and bully her?

Nowadays, rich and powerful men probably like to see themselves superior to others in this way ....

The more she thought about it, the more frustrated she felt, and Yan Liang bit her lips hard. Seeing that this Chu Yi Sheng was definitely not going to speak first, she finally couldn't help it anymore, "Young Master Chu, it's not good for you to just look at me like this, right? You are also a celebrity. If you're like this on the main road, won’t you be afraid of being exposed by someone with ulterior motives?"

Chu Yi Sheng raised his eyebrows slightly. He was not surprised that she would recognize him. Instead, he raised the corners of his lips and revealed an evil smile, "So this lady, you know me."

Yan Liang didn't intend to hide anything, and said directly: "Yes, I know you. Young Master Chu, there are probably not many people in City A who don't know such a big shot like you. So you'd better not stand in front of me, I won't ask for your money because of this matter, nor do I need you to take me to the hospital. Please leave quickly and do whatever you need to do.”

Chu Yi Sheng narrowed his eyes unconsciously, and suddenly felt that the woman in front of him was even more interesting.

What did she just said?

Just let him do whatever he has to do, right?

Heh, he is already at this age, but it seems that he has never heard this before.

Especially when it came from a woman's mouth, Chu Yi Sheng could naturally feel the cold air squeezed out from between Yan Liang's teeth when she spoke——

This woman is quite stubborn.

But no matter what, it really didn’t look good to just keep squatting like this. The people passing by saw her will thought they were bullying her.

"I'm afraid you will regret it later if I leave." Chu Yi Sheng said lazily, looking at Yan Liang with a half-smile, and finally stretched out his hand to her, "Here, I’ll help you up and take you to the hospital.”

"No need." Yan Liang refused without thinking, "I can go to the hospital by myself."

Chu Yi Sheng raised his eyebrows, "Miss, you know me, but I don't know you. How do I know if you will go to the media to report that my car had hit you when I turn around? Although the responsibility for this accident is not mine at all, but I don't want to have any worries. Get up, stop being pretentious, I won't eat you up even if I take you to the hospital."

This man's speech is really unpleasant!

Will she accuse him behind his back? Is this necessary?

Yan Liang had a cold face, but she knew that if she continued to refuse, she would really become the hypocritical person like that man said!

Forget it, she can’t stand up anyway.

She hesitated for a moment, before reaching out her hand. Chu Yi Sheng supported her and the two of them stood up. Seeing this, the driver also came over and helped Yan Liang into the car. Chu Yi Sheng then said leisurely, "Old Zhang, go to the hospaital."

The car moved forward steadily. Yan Liang sat in the back seat with some restraint. Sitting next to her was Chu Yi Sheng. Although he had not spoken since getting in the car, he always gave her a strong sense of oppression.

Finally arriving at the hospital, Yan Liang hurriedly got out of the car. Her ankle hurt a little, but there was probably no fracture, so she was fine after sitting in the car for a while. The skin on her knee was also scratched, so a bandage should be enough.

"Do you need me to take you in?" Chu Yi Sheng saw the woman hurriedly got out of the car, lowered the window, and looked at her leisurely, seemingly without much sincerity.

Yan Liang pursed her lips. She didn't need his sincerity and said, "No need, I'm fine now."

Chu Yi Sheng raised his eyebrows habitually, closed the car window and told Old Zhang to drive.

When he turned around, he found a gray handbag sitting where she had been sitting.

Maybe she forgot to take it just now.

Chu Yi Sheng stretched out his slender fingers to pick up the handbag, and the corners of his mouth curved. After a moment, he opened the handbag. As expected, there were a lot of documents inside. He took out a registration certificate and squinted at the three beautiful characters written on it——

Bai Yan Liang.

Is her name Bai Yan Liang?

He already remembered it.

***

Yan Liang didn't realize it until she arrived at the hospital whether she had forgotten her handbag on the road or in Chu Yi Sheng's car.

She sat on the corridor of the hospital, thinking for a long time and still couldn't be sure.

Hey, it really rained all night when the house was leaking!

Annoying things happened one after another, never giving her a break!

The simple thing is that the money she just withdrawn from the bank was put inside her pocket, but there were many work documents and her ID card in the handbag. It would be too troublesome to lose them.

But before she can go back to look for him, she have to treat her foot injury first.

After the wound was finally treated, she took a taxi in front of the hospital, went home, and changed into a new set of clothes.

Her stomach was growling with hunger. Yan Liang sat on the sofa in the living room, feeling that she was extremely unlucky today.

Thinking of her lost handbag, she felt anxious again, but where was the handbag now?

Should she just call the police? Or try to find Chu Yi Sheng?

Would it be too abrupt to go to Chu Yi Sheng? What if her handbag was left on the side of the road, would he think that she approached him on purpose?

While sitting on the sofa thinking about it, the doorbell of the apartment suddenly rang loudly.

Who will come to find her at this time?

Yan Liang quickly put on her slippers. Because her knees were injured, she still needed to be careful when walking.

Yan Liang was stunned when she opened the door.

"Where's your cell phone? I called you, why didn't you answer the call?" Liang Xi Cheng's tall and straight figure stood at the door of her house, with his suit jacket hanging on one arm and supporting himself with the other one on the iron door that she hadn't opened yet. With a hint of impatience between his brows, he said, "Open the door."

He ... how could he come to find her?

No, why ... why did he come to find her again?

Didn't she already resign? And he has already settled the salary to her, right? That means he agreed with her resignation, not to mention he gave her two more months of salary ....

As soon as she thought of the extra two months' salary, the anger hidden deep in her heart suddenly emerged.

Yan Liang didn't open the iron door. Her tone was decent, but with a hint of estrangement, "Chairman Liang, what's up?"

Liang Xi Xheng frowned, raised two fingers and knocked on the iron door, "Yes, something's up. Could you open the door first? I'm not used to talking to people in front of iron door."

"But I'm not used to inviting a stranger into my home casually."

Anyway, she is no longer his employee. She doesn't need to be timid in front of him at all. She could say whatever she wants. This is her home.

Why did she has to open the door when she didn't want to invite him in?

Yan Liang thought it was natural, but Liang Xi Cheng was furious!

Is he being rejected now?

This woman ... is really becoming more and more courageous!

"Secretary Bai, am I a stranger?"

"Mr. Liang, I am no longer your secretary." Yan Liang raised her neck and answered in a serious tone, "Mr. Liang, it would be better for you to call me Miss Bai!"

Liang Xi Cheng's words were stuck in his throat, his thin lips pursed slightly, and the curve of the corners of his lips had sunk, "Are you still angry with me?"

Yan Liang's heart skipped a beat.

Losing her temper?

Is she having a tantrum with him?

Ridiculous, of course not!

That was a situation that only existed between lovers. What was herself and him? Boss and subordinate, what right does she have to lose her temper with him ....

"Mr. Liang misunderstood, I definitely did not angry with you, and I am not qualified to lose my temper with you." Yan Liang thought of something and reached out from her trousers pocket to take out the two months' salary that she had just withdrawn from her bank card. The thick wad of money felt a little painful in the palm of her hand. She stretched out her hand directly through the thin slit in the iron door railing, "This is the salary that your EC gave me, but I think Mr. Liang, you must have made a mistake. This is the extra money, I can’t take it, since you come here Mr. Liang, then I will return it to you directly."

She hooked her hand on the narrow gap of the iron door railing and struggled to deliver the wad of money in front of Liang Xi Cheng.

Liang Xi Cheng only felt his temples twitching, and looked at the hand that stretched out from the crack of the iron door in disbelief, still holding a lot of money.

His handsome face and imposing appearance became even darker, and the warmth of his words also dropped sharply, "What do you mean by this?"

"Shouldn't I be the one asking Mr. Liang this?" The little woman who used to be either respectful or shy when speaking in front of him now seems to be a different person. She is really capable of sarcasm, quite remarkable at that. "I resigned yesterday and there is an extra amount of money on the salary card today. In my opinion, Mr. Liang, you are really considerate of your employees. Today is the 25th, and you paid me this month’s salary fully. I am really grateful to Mr. Liang. But for the extra two months' salary, I think the Finance Department must have made a mistake. Mr. Liang should verify with them when you go back. I will not take more money, so I will return it to Mr. Liang now."

As she spoke, she moved her wrist to signal him to quickly take the money and leave.

Liang Xi Cheng had never been so angry in front of a woman before.

In fact, there are very few people in this world who can make him angry this easily, but Bai Yan Liang ....

He was so angry that he laughed, "I'm not used to reaching out and taking money from a woman. You really want to return the extra money back, don't you? It's very simple, you can directly transfer the money to EC's account. That’s it.”

Yan Liang was stunned for a moment, "EC’s account? I don't know the number of the EC's account ...."

"You don't know? It's not surprising. You are not from the Finance Department after all. Give me paper and pen, and I will write it down for you." He suddenly changed his tone and looked very cooperative.

Yan Liang subconsciously frowned, still thinking about something. Liang Xi Cheng spoke again, "I know you are still angry with me about what happened that night. I need to apologize to you. It is indeed my fault. But I came here today not for what happened that night, nor for the money in your hand, I came here for Rex, he wants to see you ...."

"What did you say?"

Yan Liang, who was still struggling, suddenly raised her head and grabbed the railing of the iron door with her remaining hand. Her dark eyes were full of expectation, "Mr. Liang ... well, you are saying that Rex is still willing to see me?"

Liang Xi Cheng knew that he was betting on the right thing just by looking at her enthusiastic expression.

He raised his eyebrows calmly and said, "He has always wanted to see you, but why don't you open the door first?" He pointed to the elevator not far away. The double doors opened just in time. Someone came out of the elevator and deliberately opened the door to him. After glancing in the direction twice, Liang Xi Cheng sighed, "You didn't want me to stand and talk to you like this, right? There are still a lot of people coming in and out from here, and you will be the one everyone gossip about. Also, this extra money may have been miscalculated by the financial department. I will write you the account number and you can transfer it back when you have time."

Liang Xi Cheng has always been a gentleman in front of Yan Liang. At this time, Yan Liang would never have thought that the extra two months' salary was clearly a result of him deliberately asking Guan Jiu to make a call to the finance department.

Of course, his original intention was indeed to compensate Yan Liang.

But now seeing how this little girl with such a grudge about the extra money, he naturally won't say anything more. Following her wishes will indeed be able to soothe her restless heart even more.

"Isn't this money deliberately given to me by you?" Yan Liang tilted her neck, looking a little suspicious, "It's not because of what happened in the Emperor's Palace that you feel a little sorry, so ...."

"Do you think it's necessary for me to do this?" Liang Xi Cheng lied without even frowning his brows.

Yan Liang looked at his "honest" look and thought of Rex again. Ultimately, she couldn't hold on anymore——

In any case, Liang Xi Cheng is still a good person, and what happened in the Emperor's Palace ... he came to save her in the end, didn't he?

He ... maybe he didn't mean it ....

She bit her lip and seemed to hesitate, but in the end, still opened the door.

Liang Xi Cheng watched her open the iron door. The iron door in some eras made a slight sound when it was opened. He furrowed his thick eyebrows almost imperceptibly, and then when Yan Liang invited him in, he reached out and grabbed the collar of his shirt. There was a faint arc on the thin lips, and he walked in with his feet raised.

Yan Liang closed the iron door and then casually went to close the apartment door as well.

The moment the door slammed shut, someone grabbed her wrist. Yan Liang screamed in surprise. Before she could recover, she was pressed against the door panel by a strong force, and the door lock was locked. There was a "click" sound, as if it was within reach, and Yan Liang's breath tightened.

As soon as she raised her head, she saw a pair of bright black eyes. Such enchanting pupils were right in front of her, and Yan Liang's breathing suddenly became chaotic.

".... You, Mr. Liang, what are you doing? Let me go--"

Mr. Liang?

Ha, she called him quite smooth. She used to call him Chairman Liang, but now calls him Mr. Liang. She really knows the difference very clearly.

(T/N: This is the difference between what Yan Liang called him. She used to call him 梁总 liáng zǒng which has been translated as Chairman Liang by the previous translators. And now she is calling him with 梁先生 liáng xiān sheng and I choose to translated it to Mr. Liang.)

But does she know that the words Mr. Liang are as harsh as they could sound to his ears?

"What did you call me?"

The way Liang Xi Cheng narrowed his eyes was so lethal. Yan Liang's pretty face had turned completely red. However, her chaotic breathing still contained his male aura, and as she inhaled, all of it entered her body, all of her limbs and bones seemed to be infected with his breath ....

".... I, Mr. Liang, you ... let go of me a..."

"Say it again." Liang Xi Cheng leaned closer to her. Such a domineering aura directly dominated everything in Yan Liang. She could only hear his deep and rich voice with a bit of seductive ambiguity, "Come on, say it one more time, hmm?"

"Liang ...."

"What I dislike the most in my life is when others call me Mr. Liang."

"…."

Yan Liang's heartbeat was completely messed up, and her thoughts were also in chaos. Now she had no time to ask him to let go of her, but she instinctively thought about what he had just said——

If he doesn’t like others calling him Mr. Liang, then what should he be called?

She is no longer his secretary, and it is not appropriate to call him Chairman Liang. Should she just call him by his name?

Liang Xi Cheng ....

These three words were swirling in her throat, but Yan Liang found that she didn't have the courage to shout them out.

".... You, let me go first. I invited you in to ... talk about Rex with you, not to let you ... let me go first—“

She still knew how to change the topic!

T/N: Happy new year guys!
