Chairman Husband, Too Boorish - 127

Chapter 127 : One night without going to bed

Yan Liang suddenly widened her eyes, with surprise written on her face.

—Rex is actually ... a judge for the competition?

But he never mentioned it before.

Liang Xi Cheng just snorted and laughed, "I'm trying to please you, are you still going to give my woman some water? Even if you have this plan, I don't mean to do that."

(T/N: Giving water means giving some leeway on purpose.)

The implication is, my woman is capable, does she still need you to provide her support?

Rex finally moved his lazy body and raised his eyebrows, "It's rare to see you so confident in people, but of course, I also believe in my little apprentice."

The two of them seemed to be praising themselves, but Yan Liang was a little embarrassed by what they said.

The three of them sat down quickly, and the waiter began to serve the dishes. Yan Liang sat opposite Rex. He talked a little more with Liang Xi Cheng. In fact, Rex was a very silent man, but he probably had a good relationship with Liang Xi Cheng, so he talked a little more.

Because he was already a judge of the competition, they rarely talked about the competition now. Rex only talked about some small details in Yan Liang's design drawings, and told her that she just needed to perform normally tomorrow.

Yan Liang said thank you, and her nose was sensitive and she smelled the smell of bitter wormwood on Rex.

She remembered that when she first met him, it was the same smell, which stimulated her to want to vomit, and this time was no exception.

She covered her lips, her face was ugly. The first three months, the pregnancy reaction was the most serious. Liang Xi Cheng saw Yan Liang covering her lips and looking for the bathroom everywhere, so he quickly helped her up and took her in.

She just drank some warm water and didn't eat much all day, but now she vomited it all out.

This was the first time she had such a violent reaction since she became pregnant. She wanted to vomit out all the bile in her stomach. Liang Xi Cheng stood behind her and patted her back all the time. Seeing that she had almost done vomited, he brought her a cup of warm water.

"Are you feeling better? Drink some water."

Yan Liang's face turned pale. She took the water with trembling hands. After drinking half a cup, she felt relieved. When she turned around, Rex was gone. She looked at Liang Xi Cheng in surprise, "Where is Rex?"

"Gone." Liang Xi Cheng let her sit on the sofa. Seeing that her face was still not very good, he frowned, "I'll take you to the hospital for a check-up."

"No, I just have a normal pregnancy reaction." She calculated the time, "The prenatal check-up should be next week. I will go to the hospital after I finish the design competition."

After a pause, she still brought the topic to Rex, "Why did he leave suddenly? Is it me ..."

"It's not you, it's because of him." Liang Xi Cheng pinched her long hair and played with it between his fingers. His low voice was faint, "Now I know why you fainted in the bathroom when you first saw him. Maybe it was the smell of wormwood on his body that made you react?"

Yan Liang blinked, remembering the first time she met Rex, she did smell that scent on him.

"I'm still wondering why Rex smells so strongly of bitter wormwood? When I went to see him alone before, I also smelled that smell on him ..."

"He's been drinking absinthe all the time."

"... Absinthe??"

Seeing Liang Xi Cheng nodded expressionlessly, Yan Liang subconsciously asked again, "Why? As far as I know, drinking too much absinthe will have a great impact on him. He is like this ... No wonder ..." The last few words were almost murmured, "Every time I see him ... I always feel that he has a weird sense of laziness. I thought he was like this, but I didn't expect him ... Is he sick?"

"Rex rarely takes the initiative to talk about himself." Liang Xi Cheng raised the corners of his lips, and his fingertips gently pinched her soft hair, as if passing through his heart, making him want to get closer to her, so there are some things that he almost never tells anyone, but at this moment, he can't help but want to share something with her.

"So I don't have much interest in finding out about his affairs. I only know that he has a female friend in France, and they have been close for several years. The woman is said to be his first apprentice. Of course, Rex, that sullen guy, will never admit that he taught a woman design, but was tricked by that woman in the end."

Yan Liang has always been a quiet person. When she was working at EC, everyone would occasionally talk about some gossip, but she rarely participated. This time, when she heard Liang Xi Cheng talking about Rex with interest, the curiosity deep in her heart was actually aroused. All of them were drawn out—

"Really? He ... had a female disciple before? So I'm not his first disciple."

After a pause, she suddenly thought of something and looked at Liang Xi Cheng with burning eyes, "... You said Rex was tricked by that female disciple before. If that's the case, I can understand why he always gives people the impression of being so arrogant and indifferent. He shouldn't take another disciple. How can he be so kind to teach me?"

Liang Xi Cheng's expression flashed, and a trace of unnaturalness flashed in his deep eyes. Although it was very fast, the man who was always calm and steady, with such an expression, seemed to be particularly conspicuous.

Yan Liang was not stupid, she was smart, and she thought of something at once, and her slightly pursed red lips gradually curled up.

She smiled in front of him, her eyes curved, it was so rare that she knew how to tease him at this time, "Hey, our famous Chairman Liang, why does he seem to be blushing? It's really a rare spectacle in a thousand years. Do you think I should take a picture and tell some reporters tomorrow ... Ah, Liang Xi Cheng, what are you doing ..."

"What are you doing?" Liang Xi Cheng was really a little angry, but only he knew that this anger still carried a softness that he had never given to others. He pinched her slender waist and lifted her up, letting her sit on his lap in an ambiguous posture. He pressed his hand on her lower back, and Yan Liang was face to face with him.

"You little heartless person, what did you call me just now, huh?"

"I called you—Chairman Liang!" Yan Liang raised her white and smooth chin fearlessly, put her hands on his chest, squinted her eyes, like a cunning little fox, "Chairman Liang, did you sacrifice a lot in order to let Rex accept me as his apprentice?"

"Well, I did sacrifice a lot." Liang Xi Cheng raised his eyebrows, knowing how to seize the opportunity, "Then, Miss Bai, should you compensate me?"

Compensation ... these word quickly made Yan Liang's face turn red.

Speaking of compensation, she remembered what happened in his office yesterday. This man now likes to do things to her. Every time, he says that it is a stable period after 3 months, so there is no need to be too cautious. As long as the action is not intense, it will not affect the baby. So every time, he has the opportunity to tear her bones into her stomach ...

"... Don't give me this. Who knows if you are lying to me, you 'swindler'! You only think about your own compensation benefits and squeeze me all day long!"

"Am I a 'swindler'?"

Liang Xi Cheng stretched out his hand to pinch her jaw with a smile. He couldn't help it, so he leaned over and bit her lips lightly. His low voice was a little emotional, "Since you call me that, if I don't do something that a 'swindler' should do, wouldn't I feel guilty for the words you gave me, baby?"

"... What? Um—“

Yan Liang opened her mouth, but her lips were blocked. Liang Xi Cheng had long wanted to kiss her mouth, which was usually sharp-tongued when she was with others, but would moan and groan when she was under him. Once he tasted her, he couldn't stop.

He held her waist with increasing force. The two bodies were originally pressed together, and now there seemed to be no gap. Yan Liang's breath was already messy after being kissed by him. When he moved a little harder, all her rationality ran away from home, and the whole person was limp like water. If she hadn't been hugged by him, she would have fallen down long ago.

The temperature in the room suddenly became charming. Liang Xi Cheng dominated Yan Liang's desire. Just like every time before, he could easily find the sensitive points of her body and let her follow his rhythm and slowly walk into another world.

His hand had lifted up the hem of her dress and directly covered her chest, squeezing it lightly and heavily. His breathing became heavy, and the familiar desire in his body had been completely aroused. Liang Xi Cheng turned around and put Yan Liang on the sofa, ready to start, but his cell phone rang at this moment.

Both of them were stunned, and Yan Liang's rationality quickly returned to her mind. She reached out and pushed the indifferent man on her body, panting, "... You, your phone, ah ... answer the phone first."

"... Don't worry about it."

However, the owner of the phone didn't want to pay attention, but the phone kept ringing. Yan Liang was a little confused before, but now she was completely sober and pushed Liang Xi Cheng harder.

"You, you answer the phone first, the phone keeps ringing."

Liang Xi Cheng leaned over her neck, his hot breath against her skin, Yan Liang felt a burst of heat, her face turned redder, Liang Xi Cheng then cursed twice, then got up, took out his phone and looked at the caller number, his face became even gloomier.

"I'll take a call."

He stretched out his hand and tugged at his already somewhat messy collar, his handsome face was filled with the words "desire unsatisfied", and he walked towards the window not far away. Yan Liang's clothes were a little messy because of what he had just pulled, and when she saw him leave, she blushed and tidied her clothes.

In fact, he didn't walk very far, so she could hear some of the voice on the phone.

It should be Liang Qi Cheng's call, and Liang Xi Cheng's tone was not very good, but Yan Liang imagined that when he was facing her, there was always a bit of hostility and disgust between his eyebrows of the middle-aged man - his tone now should be worse than Liang Xi Cheng's, right?

....

“… Who told you that?”

Without knowing what Liang Qi Cheng said, Yan Liang saw Liang Xi Cheng curl his lips indifferently, saying in a nonchalant tone, “Since he came to find me, it’s my business, Father, what are you worried about? He won’t eat you.”

....

“Oh, I really don’t take him seriously. Don’t you know what kind of person he is? We have been in contact for many years, but it’s just for the sake of profit. You do your thing, I don’t care, I do mine, and I hope you don’t interfere anymore.”

....

"... Father, you don't need to say more. I have said this several times. The answer I gave you the first time is the same as it is now."

....

"... Rest early. If you have time, pay more attention to Jing Shan."

Yan Liang watched him hang up the phone with a gloomy face. As smart as she was, she could guess that the person Liang Xi Cheng just mentioned must be Ye Sheng Ming.

She pursed her lips, stood up from the sofa, and walked towards him, "Xi Cheng, is it your father's call? Is it about ... Ye Sheng Ming?"

Liang Xi Cheng put away his phone, "Don't think too much, this kind of thing is not your concern, you have more important things to do, I'll take you back now, ok?"

Yan Liang wanted to say something else, but after thinking about it, she felt that it would be useless to say more. In addition, she did have a tough battle to fight tomorrow, so she nodded and agreed.

On the way back, Liang Xi Cheng drove the car himself.

Yan Liang sat in the co-pilot seat, her thoughts a little bit wandering. Liang Xi Cheng told her something about design. He said that he had studied design before, but because he was in a high position, he had few opportunities to do it himself. What's more, the most important thing for him was to manage a company. But people like him, measured by Yan Liang's eyes, were all-rounders.

As long as he wanted and wanted to do it, he would always be the best.

When the car finally stopped, Liang Xi Cheng didn't rush to get out of the car. He took out the car keys and looked at her.

"This design competition is linked to the government, so it is held in an open venue. You are the only one participating in our EC. I know there are many people participating in the Far East, including other companies and some fresh graduates. Just like Rex said, you only need to perform at your normal level. Don't put too much pressure on yourself. The purpose of letting you participate was just to train your ability. Winning the award is not the ultimate goal."

Yan Liang nodded, and then raised a bright smile to him, "I know, don't worry, I will work hard and will not let you down."

Liang Xi Cheng stretched out his hand to rub the top of her head. After a moment, he said solemnly, "Yan Liang, after tomorrow's end, wait for me at the entrance of the venue. I will pick you up."

"It's okay, I can go back by myself."

"I'll take you somewhere tomorrow." Liang Xi Cheng smiled mysteriously.

Yan Liang wanted to ask something, but he turned around and got out of the car.

Yan Liang also got out of the car quickly. Liang Xi Cheng's phone rang again. He answered the call and just made a gesture to her, indicating that she should go into the house and rest first.

Thinking that he was so busy, Yan Liang swallowed the words she wanted to ask him where he would take her tomorrow. Seeing that it was getting late, she took the mentality of keeping up her spirits to face the battle tomorrow and washed up and rested early.

Yan Liang has been living in Liang Xi Cheng's villa these days.

Because she was pregnant, Liang Xi Cheng was worried about letting her go back to the apartment where she used to live alone. Yan Liang was not too hypocritical. Recently, she was really busy with the design competition and had no time to make food. So if she lived here, at least there would be servants to prepare three meals a day for her.

Although Liang Xi Cheng was busy with work, he rested early during the time she lived in his villa.

But today, she took a shower, and he still didn't come up.

Yan Liang originally wanted to go to the study to see him, but then she thought that he must be busy, and she was really tired, so she fell asleep with her head against the pillow.

The next day, she opened her eyes and found that Liang Xi Cheng had not slept all night.

—The sheets and pillowcases beside her were flat and cold, indicating that he did not come here to rest last night.

Yan Liang put on a pajamas and got out of bed. She first went to the study, but did not see Liang Xi Cheng. Then she went to the guest room next to her, but there was no one there either.

"Miss Bai."

The servant at home saw her standing at the door of the bedroom and looked around, and called her, "You are awake, I have prepared breakfast for you."

Yan Liang said "Oh", and the servant probably saw that she was hesitant to speak and looked around, so he said very tactfully, "Miss Bai, Mr. Liang went out last night. He seemed to say that he had something important to do, but he reminded me to wake you up before 8 o'clock today."
