It was like a person drowning; at that moment, she could either choose to hold onto him or let him sink!
And in the end, she held onto him.
She redeemed him from the abyss!
Given his condition last night, if Rong Yan hadn’t chosen him in the end, he might have forced her. Once he forced her, any good feelings Rong Yan had slowly built for him would surely have turned into fear. And their relationship would have been doomed!
With her personality, she definitely wouldn’t want to stay by his side, and he would absolutely not let her escape.
The only possibility would be him forcefully keeping her by his side. However, by doing so, Rong Yan would hate him.
For him, such an outcome was no different from falling into the abyss!
“I will give you time,” he said.
Rong Yan was so shaken by his words that before she could collect herself, her left hand was already taken by him again, “Let’s go.”
It wasn’t until they came to the hot springs that Rong Yan found out that the legendary most expensive natural hot spring resort in Capital City was also a recreation area under Li Group.
The hot spring resort was situated by the mountain and near the water, with picturesque scenery.
Li Shengxiao was a clean freak and disliked crowded and noisy places, so when he came for a hot spring bath, the resort had cleared the area in advance.
Consequently, the manager had also been waiting at the entrance early. Upon seeing them, he first looked at Rong Yan with a face full of shock.
Today, this important figure who always came alone actually brought a woman with him?
And he was holding her hand personally!
His heart skipped a beat, and cold sweat started to form on his forehead. He quickly averted his gaze and respectfully greeted the two, “Mr. Li, this lady… Welcome to our hot spring resort.”
Li Shengxiao glanced at him indifferently and interrupted his obsequious flattery that was about to be endless, asking, “Is everything ready?”
“It’s ready. It’s just…” The manager stealthily glanced at Rong Yan again, took out a handkerchief, and began to wipe the cold sweat forming on his forehead, saying anxiously, “Well, Mr. Li. Miss Shen and her friend are also here, and I thought you wouldn’t be bringing any guests, so I…”
The rumor outside was that Li Shengxiao didn’t have any women by his side; the only one who could occasionally appear beside Li Shengxiao was Shen Siyuan.
As the eldest daughter of the Shen Family and Mr. Shen having a good relationship with Mr. Li, it naturally meant his sister also had an uncommon relationship with Mr. Li.
When he received a call from Li Group, he hurriedly cleared the area.
When it was time to clear out Miss Shen, she refused to leave. Considering the rumors about their relationship, not wanting to offend the future Mrs. Li, he didn’t force her out.
Now that Mr. Li had brought a woman here, and their behavior was so intimate, he feared he had caused trouble.
The manager was so scared that his legs were shaking, and his forehead was continuously sweating profusely, trying to explain himself, “I told Miss Shen that you were coming, she insisted on greeting you, so I… couldn’t make Miss Shen leave beforehand.”
What if he couldn’t continue talking, what then?
Why did he believe the unreliable rumors from outside!
Who said Mr. Li didn’t like women, didn’t want women close to him, when there clearly was a woman by his side!
This was it. He was doomed now.
At the mention of Miss Shen, Rong Yan could clearly sense the man beside her frowning slightly. She looked at him in confusion and casually asked, “Who is Miss Shen?”
As the words left her mouth, she felt that wasn’t a good question. But since she had asked, as his legitimate girlfriend and secret wife by contract, she seemed to have the right to ask. Surely he wouldn’t get angry just because she asked a question, right?
