Chairman Husband, Too Boorish - 125

Chapter 125 : In the business world, human relationships are thinner than paper.

Liang Xi Cheng had a coat hanging on his arm. He pulled his tie as he walked. Seeing his mother's worried face, he quickened his pace, "Mom, don't worry, just leave it to me."

Li Yun Qin's eyes were red, obviously she had cried. Liang Xi Cheng felt sorry for his mother. He patted her back soothingly and softened his voice, "You must be tired. Go and have a rest. Just leave it to me. It'll be fine."

Li Yun Qin's voice was a little hoarse, "Xi Cheng, please persuade your sister. Her belly is so big now. I'm really afraid that something will happen ... Today your grandfather and your father are furious. There will definitely be a lot of big changes in Liang family tomorrow. Although your father has tried his best to control some media reports, our Liang family certainly can't cover up such a big thing ... There are a lot of things going on outside. That Ning Zhi Yuan is nowhere to be found. Now your sister is still like this ... How can I sleep?"

"Mother, don't worry." Liang Xi Cheng gave a glance at the servant beside him, "You go upstairs and rest first, leave this to me."

Li Yun Qin has always believed in Liang Xi Cheng's ability. She is now in a state of panic. There are a lot of things waiting for her to deal with at home, and there are also many excuses to be made to relatives. After thinking about it, she nodded and let the servant help her go to the room.

Liang Xi Cheng waited for Li Yun Qin to walk away before he reached out and knocked on the door.

"Go ... Go away ... I won't see anyone ... Get lost!" Liang Jing Shan's uncontrolled and sharp voice came from inside.

Liang Xi Cheng frowned and reached out to turn the door handle. He found that the door was locked from the inside. He called the housekeeper again, asked for a bunch of keys, and then ordered the housekeeper to open the door.

As soon as the door was opened, it was pitch black inside. The incandescent light from the corridor shone a little inside. Liang Xi Cheng was standing at the entrance. A familiar figure could be vaguely seen leaning on the black sofa. The room was a mess, with several boxes and some decorations scattered on the thick carpet.

"Who came in? I said I don't want to see anyone, get out of here, don't you have ears?!" Liang Jing Shan raised her head suddenly, her exquisite bridal makeup was completely ruined, but the moment she saw the tall and straight figure standing at the door, she immediately struggled to get up from the ground, "... Big Brother."

Liang Xi Cheng reached out and pressed the headlight switch with a snap, and the darkness was immediately replaced by dazzling light. Liang Jing Shan didn't adapt for a while and squinted her eyes subconsciously.

"... Big Brother, tell me, where is Zhi Yuan? Tell me." Liang Jing Shan rushed over and grabbed Liang Xi Cheng's wrist, shaking it vigorously, and tears fell down, feeling so wronged.

Liang Xi Cheng reached out and held Liang Jing Shan's hand, frowning, "Have you had enough of your tantrums? Don't you know that man didn't want to marry you from the beginning to the end? You are no longer a child—men, husbands, are not your toys. If you want them, you can exchange them with what you have? Don't you understand?"

"What did I exchange? I didn't! Zhi Yuan and I are truly in love!"

Even though she knew in her heart that what Liang Xi Cheng said made sense, she still didn't want to admit it, because as soon as she admitted it, she knew that she would become nothing.

She worked so hard for so long, she persisted for so long, and now she even has a child, but why ... it still ended like this in the end?

She was unwilling!

"It's useless to say this to me again and again. He doesn't want to marry you." Liang Xi Cheng obviously no longer has the initial patience for this sister. She schemed against Yan Liang one after another, completely stepping on his minefield. He can still stand here and say these words in a calm tone just because her surname is Liang. "Don't do these reckless things again. You locked yourself in the room, and in the end, the one who is sad is still Mother. Jing Shan, I will tell you one last time, it's useless for you to do these things, Ning Zhi Yuan will never come back."

"Impossible, impossible!"

Liang Jing Shan hugged Liang Xi Cheng's wrist like crazy, her face was distorted, and she kept talking, "... Why do you say that? Is it ... Did you take Zhi Yuan away? It must be like this, it must be like this, right? Big brother! Why do you treat me like this? Had I ever let you down, why do you treat me like this? What good will it do to you if I can't get married? You are so cruel—“

Liang Xi Cheng held down Liang Jing Shan, who was out of control, with a vicious look between his eyebrows. His tone was deep, and every word was like a sharp blade.

"I'm cruel? Jing Shan, ask yourself, how many chances have I given you? Do you think I really know nothing about the little tricks you did under my nose? I'm just giving you a chance because you are my biological sister. But you plotted against Yan Liang before, and then you didn't hesitate to hurt others with your own hand. Why don't you ask yourself why you are so cruel? Yan Liang doesn't seem to have done anything to let you down."

"..." Liang Jing Shan's lips trembled, and she shook her head in disbelief.

Big brother, he knows everything?

No, she did it so secretly, he couldn't possibly know ... Is he testing her?

"Big brother, I didn't ..."

"Don't say these meaningless words to me anymore." Liang Xi Cheng was not willing to listen to her nonsense anymore. He waved his hand and pushed her away a little. His gloomy face had no room for turning back, and his voice was cold and distant, "Don't have any crooked thoughts anymore, take good care of your baby. If there's nothing wrong, it's best not to leave here."

"... Big brother."

Liang Jing Shan shouted in panic, but Liang Xi Cheng had already walked out of the room without looking back.

She leaned against the wall weakly, and waited until the door was shut forcefully before she realized what she had lost and what kind of situation she was in. She tightly protected her abdomen, and slowly realized that her heart was aching dully.

It was a kind of unwilling pain after losing, as if countless poisonous snakes were gnawing at her heart, making her face, which was already twisted enough, even more cruel.

—Why, why do all people treat her like this?

Bai Yan Liang ... Bai Yan Liang ...

Is it all because of Bai Yan Liang?

Even her own brother wanted to take away her happiness, just to protect that woman ...

After a long while, she staggered and fell on the carpet, laughing neurotically—she found that she was getting more and more sleepy, but it was also because of pregnancy.

***

Last night she drew some sketches and found some information. The design competition was only two days away, so before going to bed, she read all the design competition materials Liang Xi Cheng had given her. Finally, she contacted Rex again, knowing that he would be back today. After she got up, she sorted out the drawings she had drawn in the past few days, and then prepared to have some breakfast and go to the company.

The servant had prepared breakfast for her. Yan Liang ate a little and went directly to EC.

She had been staying in the villa these days, and she was busy with her own design drawings when she had time, so she didn't know that the things she had with Liang Xi Cheng and Chu Yi Sheng that day had already spread all over the city.

Although Liang Xi Cheng had used means to suppress the report later, he could suppress the report, but he couldn't suppress the rumors.

As soon as Yan Liang entered the company, she found that everyone looked at her differently. Before she figured out what was going on, she bumped into by Qin Zi Yin at the elevator entrance.

She has been working intermittently during this period. Qin Zi Yin hasn't seen her for several days. Now when she caught her, her eyes were shining with gossip.

"You dead woman, you were hesitant to tell me the truth before. You said, you and Chairman Liang ... did that? You actually did it secretly, how abominable!"

Did it secretly ...

This description is really ... Yan Liang didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

She pulled Qin Zi Yin to a less crowded corridor, and then asked after remembering something, "Is there ... a report?"

"Nonsense! The whole city is in turmoil, Yan Liang, you dead girl, I really underestimated you, you either don't make a move, or you make a quick profit when you make a move? Chu Yi Sheng from Far East even confessed to you, I'm so jealous!"

Yan Liang didn't want to joke with Qin Zi Yin. This matter was so big. She lived with Liang Xi Cheng these two days and didn't know anything, and he didn't mention it to her, but now ... she felt a little uneasy.

"... Zi Yin, did Liang Jing Shan come to the company today?" Qin Zi Yin frowned, "Liang Jing Shan? She is from the design department, I don't know much, oh, by the way—“ She remembered something and slapped her thigh excitedly, "Her wedding was cancelled. It is said that the groom disappeared. If you ask me, this is really retribution!"

Yan Liang laughed faintly and didn't say much, "I came to get something. I have asked for leave these days."

Qin Zi Yin pulled her and talked a few more words, asking her if she was really pregnant, and asked her when the wedding was, and told her that she must let her attend. Yan Liang thought that this matter was completely unrelated, but it was not easy to say more, so she just agreed temporarily.

When she went to the design department, she didn't see Liang Jing Shan, but what surprised her was that those who used to regard her as a thorn in the flesh actually showed her courtesy one by one. Even Yu Jing Wei, the director of the design department, greeted her with a smile. Yan Liang couldn't help but sigh in her heart, feeling the warmth and coldness of human emotions. Sure enough, in the business world, human feelings are thinner than paper. As long as you have status, position, and backing, and you stand firmly at a certain height, those who once dislike you and wished for your failure will also compliment you with a smile.

She didn't stay in the design department for long. She took her things and prepared to leave. However, she unexpectedly ran into Liang Xi Cheng who had just entered the CEO's special elevator at the elevator entrance.

The back figure flashed by, Yan Liang opened her mouth to call him, but the double doors of the elevator were closed. After thinking about it, she went back into the elevator and pressed the top floor.

She arrived at the floor where Liang Xi Cheng was, thinking of calling him first, but his phone was turned off.

Yan Liang knew that this was his private number, but it was unlikely to be turned off at this time. The more she thought about it, the more strange it felt. She decided to go directly to the office to find him. As soon as she got out of the elevator, she unexpectedly found that a short and fat middle-aged man walked into the office side by side with Liang Xi Cheng.

Yan Liang has been on EC for so many years, so she naturally knows the famous bigwigs in listed companies in City A.

So just by looking at the back of that person, she could tell that the person was Ye Sheng Ming.

The current president of Ye's is middle-aged, but because he has no son, he has not retired yet.

The Ye family has developed rapidly in the past few years and has always had a lot of business dealings with the Liang family.

Yan Liang didn't know before that Ye Sheng Ming had a daughter named Ye Qing, nor did she know that Ye Qing and Liang Xi Cheng had a long history.

But now she knew it very well, so she was even more surprised. Ye Sheng Ming took the initiative to find Liang Xi Cheng ... It shouldn't be for work, so, because of Ye Qing?

Yan Liang hesitated and stood at the elevator door. For some reason, the feeling of uneasiness in her heart became stronger and stronger.

She knew that eavesdropping was too unethical, but her curiosity was completely aroused. She couldn't turn around and leave.

Still raising her feet involuntarily, Yan Liang slowly walked towards the heavy oak door.

There were only two offices on this floor. The secret room she used before was now empty. She stood at the door of the president's office and stroked the loose hair on her earlobe a little unnaturally. Although the conversations were not very clear, they still reached her ears intermittently.

"Nephew Liang, you've done a great job here." Ye Sheng Ming sat on the sofa and gave Liang Xi Cheng a thumbs up, not hiding his admiration for him at all. "Under your leadership, this EC has helped Liang's make a lot of money, right?"

Liang Xi Cheng took a cigarette out of the cigarette box, held it between his fingertips and played with it for a while, then put it in the corner of his mouth. He squinted his eyes, lit the cigarette, and took a puff.

"Uncle Ye, you rarely come to me on your own initiative. You shouldn't have just want to praise me today, right?"

Ye Sheng Ming laughed, "My dear nephew is my own family, so I won't say anything in secret." He sighed, his tone a little sad, "My precious child has been very depressed recently, unwilling to do anything, and has been locked in the room all day. She has lost a lot of weight. You know, I only have this precius child. Seeing her like this, I really ... Alas, I feel so distressed. Even if I make billions, I can't make up for this pain. You and Qing Qing grew up together. That girl listens to you the most. Xi Cheng, you should help Uncle Ye and go see Qing Qing."

Liang Xi Cheng had already guessed that Ye Sheng Ming's initiative to come to him must be related to Ye Qing. He quietly inhaled and exhaled the mist, and a large cloud of smoke obscured most of the expression on his handsome face.

Ye Sheng Ming was cunning and knew very well that Liang Xi Cheng was much more difficult to deal with than his father Liang Qi Cheng.

If it weren't for his daughter's appearance, and the fact that Liang Qi Cheng didn't make any movement at all, and Liang Jing Shan's wedding was a mess, he would have felt that he was not only tricked, but also that he couldn't do anything. Even if he had evidence against Liang Qi Cheng, he couldn't use it carelessly.

With no other options, he could only choose to take the initiative to meet Liang Xi Cheng.

Seeing that he didn't move, Ye Sheng Ming suppressed his anger and continued to put on a weak smile, "Xi Cheng, I have also seen the recent gossip headlines. You also know that Qing Qing has been devoted to you since she was a child, so those news have a great impact on her. She is now unable to eat or drink, and she can't bring herself to come to you. I am not ..."

"Uncle Ye."

Liang Xi Cheng suddenly spoke up, interrupting Ye Sheng Ming's words with a deep voice. He stretched out his hand to flick the ash, and his movements were lazy.

"You are also very clear about the current situation. If I go to see Miss Ye again, it will only bring her false hope and do her no good."

Ye Sheng Ming didn't expect him to refuse so straightforwardly. His face froze. He wanted to get angry but couldn't. After a moment of silence, the fake smile on his face was restrained, and he got straight to the point, "In a project that Liang and Ye cooperated on before, our Ye originally occupied 6 points. Now I am willing to give up 3 points and give them to you Liang family."
