Chapter 1831: I Have Always Been the One With Evil Intentions

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“As for CEO Li’s birthday, it has nothing to do with my press conference. Zhi Qin Cosmetics’ press conference can’t be held for 24 hours. In fact, it’s about to end, right?”

The reporter immediately asked, “What about CEO Li’s ex-girlfriend? She suddenly came back and stayed in the same hospital. Why did the two of them get hospitalized at the same time?”

“My ex-girlfriend has just returned. CEO Li, who has always kept a low profile, suddenly threw a birthday party. Is there really no reason for that?”

Xu Qingzhi smiled faintly and said, “I just want to celebrate my birthday. Why would I have so many reasons?”

“…”

“My husband and I have a good relationship. I hope everyone won’t overthink. My colleague was right just now. Today is Zhi Qin Cosmetics’ new product launch. Please be more professional and focus on the new product. Thank you for your support.”

Since these questions had been raised, their focus would no longer be on the company’s new products.

To them, gossip was much more popular than products.

After passing the microphone to the host, Xu Qingzhi turned around and walked backstage with a smile.

The smile on her face only faded when she left the stage.

A colleague followed behind worriedly. Xu Qingzhi was drinking water from a thermos.

“CEO Xu, are you alright?”

Xu Qingzhi put down the cup and shook her head with a smile. “It’s fine. It’s inevitable.”

“… But are you really fine with CEO Li?”

It was not without basis that those reporters had suddenly asked these questions.

Zhi Qin Cosmetics’ new product launch and President Li’s birthday party were the two most eye-catching events in Rong City.

The two of them had always kept a low profile, but it was hard not to pay attention to them.

Was she really fine with Limo?

‘I don’t know.’

She didn’t know what was happening at Limo’s birthday party.

From the questions from the reporters, it was obvious that Mo Xiaona didn’t have a banquet venue yet.

If she appeared, the reporters would react differently.

What was the meaning of this?

If Mo Xiaona appeared, she would be the center of attention.

In the past, it was still the people around her who gossiped and mocked her. Now, because of Mo Xiaona’s appearance, it was magnified infinitely.

She had no choice but to face what she didn’t want to face in front of so many people and pretend not to care.

A third party who interfered in someone else’s relationship.

A scheming woman who used children to get ahead.

An unscrupulous and vicious woman…

Standing outside the hotel, the sky had completely darkened and snowflakes were falling.

Many people passed by on the way. It was obvious how much they liked the snow.

Xu Qingzhi placed her hands in the pockets of her down jacket and caressed the velvet in her palms. She looked into the distance with an indifferent expression.

Her thoughts seemed to have returned to today a few years ago. It was also a snowy day.

She had worked the night shift at a jewelry store for two months just to buy the platinum bracelet.

‘Yes.’

That bracelet was her birthday present to Limo.

The birthday present for the man was a bracelet. Anyone would find it ridiculous.

How could a man wear such a cumbersome thing? Moreover, this was usually worn by women.

If she wanted to give a man jewelry, a watch was undoubtedly the best choice.

A bracelet…

In the eyes of others, she was really stupid.

But she felt that Limo was suitable.

His fingers were slender and his joints were well-defined. Of course, he looked beautiful wearing a ring.

But how was she in that position back then?

He was born with the hands of a rich young master. His healthy skin was fair, his fingers were slender, and his wrists were especially beautiful. He could wear anything.

Giving a watch was too vulgar and expensive. Even if she worked for a year, she wouldn’t be able to buy a watch that Li Mo liked.

Although she had money in her card, she only wanted to use the money she earned to give him a gift because that would be meaningful and valuable.

Li Mo looked beautiful wearing the bracelet.

She didn’t have to think to know.

Although she would definitely be mocked by him, he had always treated her that way.

After some time, she got used to it.

Although their interaction wasn’t normal and they didn’t like each other, there were some things that they could interact with like “friends”.

They organized parties and came to support each other.

Their relationship had always been strange, but as long as there was a connection, anything was fine.

Li Mo might mock her or even give her a nasty look, but this didn’t deny that he wouldn’t wear it.

After working the night shift for two months, coupled with the commission from the sales, he missed two days of classes and worked non-stop for two days. He tried his best to promote the bracelet and finally bought it the day before his birthday.

However, on Li Mo’s birthday, when she had dressed up to attend his birthday party, they were not around.

He was the one who had told her the address of the gathering and asked her to celebrate his birthday. Even though his tone was still unfriendly back then.

In the end, she only heard the waiter telling her that the party’s address had been changed.

She didn’t want to think too much about it. She didn’t want to think that he had deliberately tricked her.

She believed that he was not that kind of person.

But he didn’t even answer her call.

After a few calls, Mo Xiaona answered.

“I’m sorry, because a new club has just opened. Limo changed his mind and came here. Where are you now? It’s getting late. Are you still here? I’ll give you the address.”

The snow had started to fall and it was getting heavier. She had taken a taxi to her destination.

She called Limo again, but he didn’t pick up.

She stood outside for the entire night. The snow had almost buried her.

The velvet box in his pocket gradually turned cold…

That snowy night became a day that she would never forget…

That was also Limo’s last birthday in school.

When she went to school again, she had already taken her annual leave.

When school reopened, Limo’s attitude towards her changed from tit for tat to complete coldness.

He didn’t even look at her or say a word to her.

He didn’t even give her a chance to get close to him.

After that, he graduated.

They went their separate ways.

She would never have the chance to give that birthday present again.

A gust of cold wind suddenly blew and entered her collar, making her shiver.

Coming back to her senses, she blinked, lowered her head, and slowly took her hand out of her pocket.

There was a long purple velvet box on her palm. She raised her other hand to open the box. The lights in the hotel shone on the box, and a simple platinum bracelet lay quietly inside.

A snowflake landed on it slowly.

Platinum jewelry had just become popular in those years. In the past, it was considered beautiful. Although it was not as good as before, it was not considered outdated.

Limo had said that he loved her.

In the past, she could turn over a new leaf.

This year was his birthday. This was a gift that he had prepared for many years. He wondered if he would give it away.

Taking a deep breath, she buckled the box and put it back in her pocket.

She walked slowly down the steps to the parking lot.

Just as she opened the car door, a ray of light shone on her.

She reached out to block it, followed by the sound of the car door opening.

“Miss Xu.”

A slender figure stood against the light.

Frowning, she lowered her arm and looked up at him.

“Who are you?”

“Miss Xu, are you going to President Li’s birthday party?”

Xu Qingzhi was naturally wary. “Why?”

“Miss Xu, please come with me.”

“Who the hell are you?”

“…”

—

Zhi Qin Cosmetics’ new product launch continued. Even though some employees kept emphasizing the new product, the reporters and other guests’ attention was on Li Mo and Xu Qingzhi.

Some people even guessed that Li Mo had gone against Xu Qingzhi this time because he wanted to give her a warning. He wanted her to be sensible and retreat.

Now that her ex-girlfriend was back, it was time for her to give way.

The venue was in chaos. Everyone was guessing how the two of them would end up.

When Limo arrived, they were having a heated discussion.

When they saw the male lead’s face suddenly appear, they all shut their mouths. It was rare for them to meet him. They went forward to compliment him, but they were forced to retreat by the hostility on his body.

The expressions of the staff present did not look good. After hearing so many sarcastic remarks about their CEO Xu, how could they be happy?

No one knew better than them what kind of person CEO Xu was in the company.

CEO Xu had suffered a lot, and now, he was being criticized by so many people. It was all because of this man.

Even though he was the person Rong Cheng couldn’t afford to offend, he couldn’t deny that he was the culprit.

“Where’s Xu Qingzhi?” Li Mo stood in front of them and asked coldly.

“I’m not sure. She’s probably tired and went home to rest.”

“That’s right, President Li, are you complaining that the warning is useless and came to force us?”

This sarcastic tone made Li Mo’s face darken. “What do you mean?”

That person snorted and said, “The press conference was going well because of your birthday party. The reporters’ questions are all about your marriage with CEO Xu and your ex-girlfriend Bai Yueguang. Most of the people present are guessing when the two of you will get a divorce!”

“CEO Li’s methods are indeed invincible. Fortunately, you didn’t bring your Bai Yueguang along this time. You’ve saved CEO Xu some face. If you really brought your ex-girlfriend Bai Yueguang to force the abdication, that would be too much!”

Someone tugged at the indignant female colleague.

“Why are you dragging me along? So what if I’m handsome and rich? I’m also a woman, okay? Don’t think that you’re so popular that all women like you. There are many men in the world who are better than him. I want a good-looking but useless man to show off his love to another woman. What’s the use of a man who’s living like a widow at home? He might as well buy some love and entertainment items from a certain store. They’re all more useful than him!”

“…”

“…”

“…”

Li Mo’s eyelids twitched again and again. “…”

Damn it, were all women so tough these days?

Even sex toys were more useful than him?!

“… … … … …”

Everyone present couldn’t help but sweat for this daring woman. At the same time, they admired her courage.

It was fine if he sounded tough, but the key was to CEO Li.

That was impressive.

CEO Li was not as useful as a sex toy?

“Pfft!”

In a luxurious villa in Ping Cheng City, low laughter sounded.

Shen Fanxing wore a pair of Bluetooth earphones and covered her mouth with both hands. Her eyes curved into crescents and she looked exceptionally beautiful.

Where did this treasure employee come from?

How rare.

Such a woman was probably rare now.

A laugh attracted the attention of the man beside her and he carried her.

“What are you laughing at?”

Shen Fanxing smiled and said, “Limo was reprimanded by Qingzhi’s colleague.”

Bo Jinchuan smirked and asked, “What did she lecture you about?”

“She said that Limo isn’t as useful to Qingzhi as a sex toy… But on second thought, that seems to be the case. We’ve been married for more than two months, but haven’t we always been widowed?”

Bo Jinchuan carried her into the bedroom. Upon hearing her words, his eyes narrowed.

“Don’t make it sound like you’ve used those things before.”

Shen Fanxing blushed and replied, “Of course I haven’t.”

“You sound like you know a lot.”

“The sea of knowledge is boundless…” These seemed to be self-taught.

Bo Jinchuan raised an eyebrow and asked, “You’ve learned it before?”

“No…”

“You can consider using it on me.”

Bo Jinchuan interrupted her calmly, causing her face to heat up.

“You’re indecent…”

“I can only be indecent to you. Please get used to it in the future.”

Bo Jinchuan kissed the corner of her lips and said, “Sit down obediently. I’ll heat up some milk for you.”

Shen Fanxing nodded and continued to hold her phone.

At the press conference, the atmosphere was a little awkward.

The surrounding people didn’t dare to laugh even if they wanted to. The other colleagues held it in for a long time before pulling the female colleague to the back.

“Erm… CEO Li, don’t mind her. I’ve seen her backstage. She probably went to your birthday party. After all, it’s your birthday. How can she not attend?”

Li Mo’s gaze instantly landed on him. “Are you sure?”

Her colleague nodded and said, “Yes, if she wasn’t attending your birthday party, she wouldn’t have left early, right?”

Someone echoed, “She should be attending. I saw a gift box on her backstage. It should be a birthday present for you…”

Li Mo’s cold eyes seemed to have been lit up by a blinding light.

In an instant, the sun shone brightly.

Before that person could finish speaking, Li Mo had already walked far away.

When he reached the entrance of the banquet hall, he suddenly stopped and turned to a reporter. He took the microphone and said,

“Since I’ve decided to get married back then, I have no intention of getting a divorce. In this lifetime, I, Limo, will only have one wife, and that is Xu Qingzhi. Only she has the right and no one else can!”

The entire banquet hall instantly became lively.

“Also, the woman I like… the woman I love has always been Xu Qingzhi!”
