Chapter 43 Yu Wanwan Refused Him
Li Qianluo knocked on the door, but no one answered. Half a minute later, when they were about to go back, the door was opened from inside. It turned out to be a woman with wine red bobbed hair, her bright eyes wearing black eyeliner and slightly thick lips with orange lipstick.
Her T-shirt, shorts and flat sandal were all black.
Seeing a woman show up, Li Qianluo fired up. "Where is Li Youhan? Call him over!"
Jiang Jingjing was in a fog when seeing this furious woman. But she found that this woman resembled Li Youhan somewhat in face.
"For what?" As a woman, Jiang Jingjing was put on alert when another women, who appeared to be very beautiful, came for Li Youhan. The biggest blunder she made was not stopping Li Youhan sleeping with the woman last night.
"Who are you? Why are you in his room? Where is he? Does he think he can so easily get away with what he has done?" Noticing Jiang Jingjing"s vigilance, Li Qianluo guessed that she might be Li Youhan"s wife or something.
"What happened last night?" Jiang Jingjing cast a baffled look at her, not sure whether she had anything to do with the woman last night.
"Yes! Something happened last night. Call him out! A real man shall never hide behind a woman." In front of that strange woman, Li Qianluo raised her chin, as she knew that in dealing with such a strange woman, one must first take the pride out of her.
"Well, he is not here." Jiang Jingjing, who had been waiting for Li Youhan for a long time, spread out her hands.
Upon hearing that that man was not in the room, Yu Wanwan let out a sigh of relief. She gently tugged at Li Qianluo"s dress and hinted that they should head back by casting a look at the direction from which they came.
"Who are you?" Li Qianluo asked Jiang Jingjing seriously with a straight face, while patting Yu Wanwan"s hand which was tugging at her dress.
"Huh. It is none of your business." Jiang Jingjing leaned against the door frame and looked down her nose at Li Qianluo, with her arms crossed over her chest.
Li Qianluo pulled Yu Wanwan, who was concealing herself behind, forward. "Look! She will be Li Youhan"s wife. You would do well to go away right now!"
Jiang Jingjing"s face went sullen when she saw Yu Wanwan. She recognized Yu Wanwan at first sight, and took her in a firm grasp. "Come over. Is it your plan to come here last night? Do you have a crush on Youhan? Tell me!"
Li Qianluo hurried forward and tried to free Yu Wanwan. "Let go of Wanwan!"
The three women grappled, which struck the waiter dumb.
Just at the moment, the elevator stopped, and a man in an army uniform walked out. He coldy looked at the three women pulling and pushing outside his room, not having the slightest intention to move a step forward.
When he was about to turn round, someone familiar came into view. It was the woman from last night!
Li Youhan had his eyes focused on Yu Wanwan, so that he didn"t notice Li Qianluo, who stood with her back to him. He strode toward Yu Wanwan and s.n.a.t.c.hed her away from Jiang Jingjing.
Those three women stood there stupefied. Li Qianluo guessed that it must be Li Youhan. Before she could say anything, Li Youhan pulled Yu Wanwan into the room and shut the door. The other two were left outside. The angry Jiang Jingjing stamped her feet.
Li Qianluo cast a satisfactory look on, as she could tell from Li Youhan"s behavior that he had no place in his heart for Jiang Jingjing.
Jiang Jingjing responded her with a hostile glare, and left the hotel.
Then Li Qianluo became the only one left in the corridor. She was at a loss what to do next. Afraid that that man would bully Yu Wanwan when they were alone in in the room, Li Qianluo soon rang the doorbell and banged on the door.
"Wanwan, open the door!"
After a while, the door was opened from inside. Li Qianluo breathed a sigh of relief as she saw Yu Wanwan coming out.
"Qianluo, let"s go." Yu Wanwan calmly pulled Li Qianluo towards their room.
As soon as they went into the room, Li Qianluo asked what they talked about.
Yu Wanwan smiled and shook her head. "It is settled. Our paths shall not cross again."
Looking at the calm Yu Wanwan, Li Qianluo was somewhat puzzled. "What did you talk about? Why did you come out so quick? Would he not like to take the responsibility?" Li Qianluo immediately stood up from the sofa and got ready to take up the matter herself.
"Qianluo! It"s not what you think." Yu Wanwan pulled the furious Li Qianluo down onto the sofa, and briefly told her what had happened.
Actually, that man was willing to be responsible to her. It was Yu Wanwan who didn"t want to leave D City for A Country.
That man came from the capital of A Country. He would just stay here for three days for some personal affairs. He had promised to respect Yu Wanwan"s choice and marry her after he went back home.
Both of them remained calm during the talk.
Yu Wanwan refused him, for she didn"t want to marry a stranger simply because they had spent a night together.
Before Yu Wanwan left, that man also told her his phone number, so that Yu Wanwan could call him if she wanted to.
Since Yu Wanwan had made the decision, Li Qianluo can"t very well force her to marry him. She merely felt sorry for Wanwan. Though Li Qianluo and Si Jinheng had been strange to each other, they got along well later. But in Wanwan"s case, she chose to give in.
That night, Li Qianluo and Yu Wanwan slept together and chatted late into the evening. Li Qianluo seemed to have experienced a lot more in the past days. Her story went from the time when she went to SL Group, to the time when her mother-in-law made a scene in the company.
It had pa.s.sed two o"clock early in the morning. Li Qianluo happily fell asleep, with her arm around Wanwan"s waist. Seeing Li Qianluo"s arm around her waist, who behaved like a innocent child, Yu Wanwan shook her head and went to sleep.
In the morning, after Li Qianluo arrived at the company, things got hotter, as everyone in the company knew that Li Qianluo had a thing for the CEO and was brought in for that reason.
So wherever she went, everyone looked at her with odd looks.
Li Qianluo felt extremely tired. But she would never surrender. "Don"t worry about what other people think of me, and just do what I should do, " Li Qianluo thought to herself.
It had been an exhausting day. Li Qianluo was isolated in the department. Her colleagues dumped their workloads on her whenever they felt like it.
At 6 o"clock pm, her colleagues knocked off one after another, while Li Qianluo was still typing a formula for facial mask into the computer. At the moment, her phone rang. It was Si Jinheng.
"Hi." Li Qianluo answered the phone weakly, while kept typing.
"Still at work?" The half-an-hour wait had clearly squeezed the last bit of patience out of him.
"Yes. Many others need the formula tomorrow. I have not finished it." Li Qianluo wanted to go off work. But she had no choice.
Si Jinheng frowned at the words. After hanging up, Si Jinheng made a call to Yun Qi.
