Chapter 232: Chapter 232 would not have a second female owner
Li Jingran was so angry that he laughed.
She really could think of something.
Xu Wanwan said unhappily, “What are you laughing at? I only promised to return to the Li family and not to sacrifice the happiness of the rest of my life.”
“I think you’re thinking too much.”
Li Jingran said slowly, “The happiness of the rest of your life is in my hands.”
Xu Wanwan gritted her teeth and said, “What nonsense are you talking about?”
“In short, it doesn’t make sense.”
“If you bring your girlfriend home and see me, it will also be a troublesome matter.”
She didn’t want to be chased and scolded as a mistress.
Xu Wanwan wanted to argue further, but she was interrupted by Li Jingran. “This is all your imagination. The Li family will not have a second mistress other than you.”
Xu Wanwan was stunned.
Li Jingran’s expression was inexplicably serious, and no one could see any hint of profanity or playfulness.
When he said this, his eyes were firm and his tone was sincere.
Xu Wanwan paused for a few seconds and looked away in panic, but her heart gradually softened.
She admitted that during the days she stayed in the Li family, Li Jingran had given her a lot of warmth.
She also gradually regarded the man as her reliance and did not want him to leave her.
If it weren’t for the things that happened after that, without her parents stopping her, she would have always admired and liked this man.
However, there were many things that couldn’t be stopped. What had already happened couldn’t erase the damage.
Looking at the domineering contract in front of her, Xu Wanwan actually resisted a little. However, when she looked up, she could still see a trace of hope in CEO Gao’s eyes.
She couldn’t bear to break CEO Gao’s last hope.
Xu Wanwan’s eyes became determined. She picked up the pen and quickly signed her name at the end of the contract.
The penalty on the contract was 100 million.
As long as she made good money, she would be able to pay it back sooner or later.
Xu Wanwan pushed the contract back. “It’s signed. Please Don’t disturb me anymore in the future.”
Li Jingran looked at the delicate handwriting on the contract and curled his lips in satisfaction.
But he didn’t agree to her request and said meaningfully, “What, Miss Xu won’t go home with Me Now?”
Xu Wanwan held back her last bit of temper. “The contract doesn’t specify when I should go home, right?”
Li Jingran was stunned.
This was an oversight.
If it was possible, he hoped that she could go home on time every night, the sooner the better.
Xu Wanwan couldn’t guess what the man was thinking, so her expression became more serious. “Director Li, if you have nothing else to do, please go out. I still have something to discuss with director Gao.”
She had already agreed to what she should have agreed to.
He couldn’t possibly delay her work, right.
Li Jingran’s goal wasn’t to disturb her at all. He just wanted to keep her in the Li family.
Having achieved his purpose, he naturally left the private room without saying a word.
After Li Jingran left, the silent people in the room finally dared to make a sound.
Some people sighed deeply, while others picked up their cups and drank quickly. They could finally heave a sigh of relief.
Gao Zongsheng quickly stood up and looked at Xu Wanwan with gratitude. “Miss Xu, it was all thanks to your help just now. Let Me Toast to you!”
Xu Wanwan shook her head lightly. “You’re welcome. This matter is also related to me. I should have helped you.”
CEO Gao still felt very grateful in his heart.
If it weren’t for Xu Wanwan, the business that he had risked his life to protect for decades might have been destroyed tonight.
However, the price that Xu Wanwan had paid was really too high..
It would be fine if she liked Li Jingran, but if she didn’t like him, she would definitely not be happy in the future if she stayed in the Li family for the sake of an Qing company’s future.
After the discussion, most of the people in the private room had left. Gao Zongsheng looked for Xu Wanwan and said with a troubled expression, “Miss Xu, there’s something I want to ask you.”
Xu Wanwan had drunk a few glasses of wine that night, and her mood was slightly better now. Her face was still flushed, and she nodded. “Ask away.”
“Do you... have a good impression of director Li?”
This question came out of Gao Zongsheng’s mouth very abruptly.
Because he didn’t look like a gossiper.
Because of this, the expression on Xu Wanwan’s face became even more puzzled. “Why do you ask?”
“Miss Xu, although I can’t bear to part with Anqing company, but...”Gao Zongsheng said and sighed heavily, “But to sacrifice the rest of your life’s happiness, even if I can protect Anqing Company, the burden in my heart is pressing down on me until I Can’t breathe.”
“It’s not that I don’t know about the power of the Li Corporation. The feelings between the wealthy families are too complicated. If you want to leave the Li family in the future, I’m afraid it will be very difficult.”
Xu Wanwan understood what he was worried about.
She pondered for a moment and pretended to be relaxed. “President Gao, you’re worrying too much.”
“People are selfish. I’m not that great. I Won’t sacrifice my own happiness for the sake of others.”
Xu Wanwan’s eyes sparkled. “If I had no feelings for Li Jingran, why would I agree to his absurd requests?”
Gao zongsheng still didn’t understand. “I think director Li cares about you very much. Since you have feelings for him, why do you want to separate?”
“There are feelings, but as you said, feelings are very complicated,”Xu Wanwan said faintly. She looked calm on the surface, but her mood was heavy. “Apart from feelings, there are many practical problems.”
Gao Zongsheng was a sensible person, and he understood immediately.
Yes, the feelings between wealthy families were always full of grudges and disputes.
Moreover, for a wealthy family like the Li family, if they were not of the same family background, even if they liked each other, they would still face too many problems after they got together.
Xu Wanwan smiled slightly. “In short, don’t think too much. Just take this matter as me being willing.”
“Only when Anqing Company develops well, as the company’s designer, can I achieve better results.”
Gao Zongsheng was very touched and said seriously, “Alright! I’ll strive to develop the company as soon as possible!”
Xu Wanwan walked out of the hotel. It was already dark outside.
She stood by the roadside and looked at the endless stream of cars. She adjusted the thin coat on her body and exhaled a breath of white steam.
A new coat suddenly appeared behind her, covering her entire back.
Xu Wanwan felt a wave of warmth assaulting her. She subconsciously turned around and was caught off guard by a strong chest.
The refreshing and pleasant smell of a man instantly entered her nostrils, and the temperature between her breaths became scorching.
The man’s magnetic voice sounded above her head —
“Have you drunk?”
On such a cold day, diving into the man’s warm and steady embrace gave her an inexplicable sense of security.
However, surrounded by this warmth, Xu Wanwan actually felt a little wronged, and her nose suddenly felt sour.
Why didn’t he want to believe her at that time?
Why did he want to ruthlessly abandon her when she had completely opened her heart and soul?
Xu Wanwan took a light breath, raised her hands, and pushed the man away.
She stood to the side with the man’s coat behind her.
The cold wind messed up her hair. Her voice was soft and soft in the wind.
“It’s so cold. Why aren’t You Back Yet?”
