Chairman Husband, Too Boorish - 111

Chapter 111 : You are the biggest variable in my life.

She approached and happend to saw a silver-gray Mercedes-Benz driving in the other direction at the entrance. The car slowed down when it turned, so she could see the person in the driver's seat clearly.

Yan Liang's footsteps subconsciously paused, and the whole person froze there, watching the red taillights getting farther and farther away, and finally disappeared completely at the corner.

—Just now, was it Ye Qing?

A voice in the depths of her heart immediately jumped out and shouted, yes.

It was Ye Qing, she actually saw it clearly, so she already understood why Liang Xi Cheng wanted to get rid of her. The person he probably wanted to see was Ye Qing, right?

She pursed her lips and walked towards the car expressionlessly. After two steps, she found that she was going in the wrong direction. The red warning light had been flashing just now, but now it was not on. She pressed the car key in her hand again, and soon the car beeped twice again.

She turned back, opened the car door, bent down and got in.

As Liang Xi Cheng said, she opened the reserve box and found three thick books, all about architectural design, and they were all limited editions.

She had looked for such a collection of books many times before, but she had never found any. She didn't expect that now she had it in her hands, she didn't feel excited at all.

Her heart was always in a trance.

Ye Qing went to see Liang Xi Cheng, why didn't he tell her?

He sent her away and met Ye Qing alone, why?

But on second thought, why did Liang Xi Cheng tell her? She wasn't originally his, right?

Her mind was in a mess, and she was restless. Yan Liang found that she couldn't concentrate at all.

She flipped through the pages of the books in her hand as she read them and finally closed them reluctantly ...

15 minutes, Liang Xi Cheng said 15 minutes. For the first time, she felt that time was a torture for her.

Every minute, every second.

***

"Tell me, what's the important thing you want to talk to me about?" Liang Xi Cheng sat firmly on the big chair, his slender fingers tapping the folder beside him from time to time.

Ye Qing put the plan she brought in front of him, "This is what I want to show you today."

Liang Xi Cheng's long fingers moved slightly, looking at the "half-quarter" plan written on it, he did not rush to read it, but raised his eyes and looked at the woman in front of him.

"This shouldn't be what you show me now. I haven't participated in the cooperation between Liang and Ye since I came to EC."

"Have you ever thought about going to Liang headquarters?" Ye Qing sneered, "Xi Cheng, the you I know is not a man who would willingly lean towards EC. Isn't your ultimate goal the entire Liang? This is a half-quarter plan for the cooperation between Liang and Ye. Why don't you have the right to know?"

Liang Xi Cheng moved his long fingers and pushed the file in front of Ye Qing. He had no intention of checking it at all.

His deep voice was still calm, "It's not a matter of power. There is no order without rules. Now that I am sitting in this position, I have to do what I should do. Ye Qing, I am very grateful for your consideration for me, but it is really unnecessary."

Ye Qing's eyes darkened, "Is it because of that woman?"

Liang Xi Cheng raised his eyebrows, knowing in his heart that she was going to get to the point. He did not respond, but just glanced at the wall clock calmly.

Five minutes had already passed, and there were still ten minutes left.

He did not want to break his promise to his woman, not even for a minute.

"Xi Cheng, you were not like this before. Work is the most important thing for you. Are you sure that you are going in the right direction? Are you sure that you will get everything you have always wanted?"

The Liang family has complicated relationships. Although it can be regarded as a business empire built by Liang Qi Cheng, there are several peers around Liang Qi Cheng. Liang Qi Cheng is the eldest brother. Several brothers who started the business together are now trying to get a piece of the pie. Some are still fighting lawsuits, and some have been sitting in the position of shareholders, ready to make a move.

Liang Xi Cheng has a good business mind and his methods are also vigorous and resolute. It is because of his young age that the old guys on the board of directors tried their best to make him leave the Liang headquarters and go to EC.

But Ye Qing never thought that a man like Liang Xi Cheng would be willing to stay in EC for his whole life, and Uncle Liang Qi Cheng would not allow his son be demoted to EC. After all, this is just a subsidiary, and his platform should be the entire Liang.

And her, Ye Qing, is the only bargaining chip that helps him ascend to the final throne.

Although she compares herself to a bargaining chip, she still thinks everything is worth it for him.

"I know what I want." Liang Xi Cheng stood up and looked at Ye Qing, "I am very grateful that you have been helping me all these years. I also know that you went to the UK for so many years before to be my good assistant. But Ye Qing, everyone should have what they want to do, and you really don't have to revolve around me. I know what I want, and you should also think clearly about what you want most."

I want you!

What I want most is you, Liang Xi Cheng!

Ye Qing shouted loudly in her heart, but her throat seemed to be blocked by a huge stone, and she never had the courage to shout.

"I have another important matter." Liang Xi Cheng raised his wrist and looked at his watch, which was obviously an order to leave. "It's almost time. Do you have anything else to do?"

Ye Qing bit her lip, swallowed the bitterness in her throat, and spoke again, her voice was particularly hoarse, "Xi Cheng, I don't want to beat around the bush with you anymore. I want to ask you now, do you really want to marry Bai Yan Liang because of the child in her belly?"

Liang Xi Cheng was not surprised that she knew about this. Ye Qing had a good relationship with Liang Jing Shan in private. With Jing Shan's personality, she must have told her about it a long time ago.

But it's good that she knew, so he didn't waste time explaining anything. "Yes." He said concisely, "My child, it's impossible for him to be an illegitimate child."

In one sentence, he had clearly stated his position. Ye Qing's heart sank straight into the endless abyss. She only felt uncomfortable, disappointed, and heartbroken. She couldn't help but say, "Are you so sure that the child that woman has must be yours?"

"What did Jing Shan told you?" Liang Xi Cheng was obviously a little unhappy, his thick sword-like eyebrows frowned, and his tone was a little low, "I know that our two elders have confirmed our marriage before. But Ye Qing, this is just the idea of the elders after all. I, Liang Xi Cheng, have never been a person who dares to do things but not to take responsibility. I admit that I owe you. In the past few years, I really haven't had any other ideas. I just let it go.

“But, after all, the relationship between us was just a verbal discussion between the elders, not to mention that it was all based on a business marriage. You and I are very clear that we have not announced any engagement news to the public. Now that such a variable has appeared, I can't have anything with you anymore, so you don't need to waste time looking at me."

Looking at the woman in front of him with an increasingly ugly face and her trembling lips almost being bitten by her, Liang Xi Cheng couldn't bear it after all.

He sighed lightly and his tone softened a little, "Ye Qing, you are very good, you deserve to find a better man than me to have you. I'm sorry, maybe my words and deeds hurt you, I will remember that this is what I owe you, and I will do my best to compensate you for whatever you want in the future, provided that I can do it. There is still friendship between us."

Friendship?

It's really funny!

Herself, Ye Qing, has spent so many years of her youth for Liang Xi Cheng, is it just to get a so-called "friendship"?

No, she doesn't want friendship, she wants his love, even if his love can't give her, she wants to be the woman who can stand by his side!

Liang Xi Cheng had already grabbed the coat beside him. Ye Qing glanced at him and spoke faster than him, "Xi Cheng, we have known each other since childhood. Although you admit that there is some affection between you and me, no matter what, we can be regarded as childhood sweethearts. You may not believe me, but I still have to say, that Bai Yan Liang, do you trust her so much? Some things, even if you see them with your own eyes, may not be true. I hope you don't regret it for the rest of your life."

Her tone was a little anxious, and her eyes were red. Perhaps she was afraid that her emotions would get out of control. She finished speaking in one breath and walked out of the office.

Liang Xi Cheng put on his coat expressionlessly, picked up the folder on the desk and caught up with Ye Qing at the elevator entrance.

She was wiping her tears. When she saw Liang Xi Cheng chasing her out, she was ecstatic, but the moment she saw the file he handed her, her whole face collapsed.

"Take this away." Liang Xi Cheng said calmly, and before entering his special elevator, he handed the tissue in his pocket to Ye Qing.

Ye Qing held the documents in one hand and tightly grasped a pack of tissues in the other, watching the double doors of the elevator slowly close. Her red eyes were filled with resentment and unwillingness—In the end, is all you can give me just a pack of tissues?

Liang Xi Cheng, how can I be willing to accept this?

***

Yan Liang looked at the mobile phone standing upright on the dashboard. It was the timer she had just made. It just jumped to the number 13:30 and was still jumping.

She glanced at it unconsciously, and then continued to lower her head. There was a piece of white paper on the thick book. She held a pencil she had just found from the reserve box in one hand and scribbled on the white A4 paper.

When her mind was so confused, she thought of using an extreme method to calm herself down, that is, to draft her own design drawing.

At this moment, she looked at the half-lined lines on the A4 paper, and for the first time she felt that this method was actually feasible.

Counting today is Monday, and she should send another drawing to Rex in two days. Regarding the design competition, Rex also told her personally on the phone that he had signed her up, and there was not much time left. She should really focus on the design competition now. After all, such an opportunity is not always available.

The car door was suddenly opened. Yan Liang looked up and saw Liang Xi Cheng standing outside, bending down and sitting in the driver's seat.

"You drew it?" Before Yan Liang had time to put away the drawing at hand, Liang Xi Cheng had already seen it. He reached out and took it and looked at it with bright eyes. The corners of his mouth curled slightly, "In just fifteen minutes, you can draw these lines. Indeed, my woman is very talented."

Normally, when he mentioned the words "my woman", Yan Liang's face would always flash a few traces of unnaturalness, blushing, and refutation in vain, "I am not your woman."

But now, she was calm.

Liang Xi Cheng was so cautious, this little woman couldn't hide any emotions, and wrote them directly on her face. He could see something at a glance. He put the drawing on the dashboard and saw her mobile phone standing there. The time just jumped to 15:00. Liang Xi Cheng curled his lips and reached out to take the mobile phone. Yan Liang was one step faster than him. She rushed over and grabbed the mobile phone in her palm.

She explained, "... I, I just set the time when I drew the design!" After a pause, she added weakly, "... This time is not fifteen minutes, I set it to twenty minutes, and it will jump ..."

Liang Xi Cheng looked down at the woman who was still leaning on his arms from above. She held the mobile phone in one hand and had a reluctant expression on her face, which made him very happy. Yan Liang looked up at the half-smiley eyes above him, and she really wanted to dig a hole in the ground and crawl into it—

Shame on me, shame on me, so shameful!

Bai Yan Liang, what the hell are you talking about? The more you try to cover up, the more obvious it becomes. This really proves the saying "explanation is equivalent to covering up"!

She realized belatedly that she was still lying on his laps. Just as she was about to straighten up, Liang Xi Cheng suddenly reached out and hugged her tightly.

The car was originally small, and the two of them were completely glued together after going back and forth.

Yan Liang struggled and stared at him in annoyance, "... Let go!"

"What are you angry about?" Liang Xi Cheng smiled instead of getting angry, raised his eyebrows, "Your unhappiness is written on your face. What's the matter? Huh?"

Is it that obvious?

Yan Liang's heart skipped a beat, and she struggled even harder, "... I'm not unhappy, you, you let go first, let me go!"

"You just pounced on me yourself." Liang Xi Cheng chuckled, and his handsome face moved closer to her, and his hot breath sprayed on her neck ambiguously.

No matter how intimate the two of them were, every time he got close to her like this, Yan Liang couldn't help but be moved.

She wanted to hide behind, but Liang Xi Cheng quickly held the back of her head, making her unable to move at all. His enchanting eyes stared straight into her pupils, causing Yan Liang's heartbeat to speed up. Her dark eyeballs moved rapidly, but she didn't dare to meet his compelling gaze.

Instead, he laughed out loud, and his calloused thumb gently stroked her cheek, and his low tone was extremely ambiguous, "I didn't know that you would miss me so much even if you only left me for fifteen minutes, but you don't have to restrain yourself like this, just say it if you miss me, I'm happy to hear your true feelings."

"... I didn't ..."

"Shh, listen to me."

Yan Liang's unconvincing rebuttal was interrupted by Liang Xi Cheng. He raised his eyebrows, and his slender fingers just happened to press on the corner of her eyebrows. The force was not light or heavy, but it seemed to press on the tip of her heart, which made people palpitate.

He said, "Listen carefully to what I say now. I will only say it once. I just met Ye Qing. I know you might have run into her in the parking lot. I didn't hide it from you on purpose. I just felt that there was no need to say more because my relationship with her is not what the outside world has said. Of course, it did develop in that direction before, but you appeared in the middle. Bai Yan Liang, you are the biggest variable in my life. So now everything is not as originally planned, and therefore, I feel it is necessary to meet her and make things clear."

Yan Liang didn't expect that he would take the initiative to mention Ye Qing. She was indeed unhappy, and she admitted that she was jealous. Jealousy, jealousy ... There was also a day when she would have such emotions raging in her chest because of a man. Even when she first learned about the things between Liang Jing Shan and Ning Zhi Yuan, she was just angry, but she had never had such strong emotions.

Did she ... really fall in love with this man?
