Chapter 1284: The Story of Ling and Heng (547)
This person’s back view was too similar to that man in Los Angeles.
She retracted her cold gaze, took out the electronic car key, locked the car door, and followed him into the hospital.
It was just a simple surface wound. After the doctor treated it, it was wrapped in gauze. There was no need for the gauze, but Ian insisted.
In the end, because her wrist was tied up like this, when she walked out of the hospital, she looked at the direction of her car and found that this man was really scheming. She really could not drive anymore.
“I’ll drive the car back for you. Where do you live?” Ian walked beside her, signaling her to give her the car key.
Feng Ling was not someone who liked to compromise, especially when the man opposite her knew how to play by the rules. At this moment, her phone rang. She picked it up and answered: “h.e.l.lo, Xiao Ba, en, I’m not home. I’m in the hospital right now.”
“I’m fine. I met with some trouble earlier. My wrist is a little bruised. I came to the hospital to take care of it.”
“You don’t have to tell Ji Nuan. Recently, the company has been so busy. It’s not easy for her to have a good weekend to rest. Don’t let her worry. En, if you want to come, you can. Help me drive the car back.”
“Okay, I’ll send you the location.”
Feng Ling hung up the phone and turned to look at Ian. “Sorry, my friend will be here soon. She can send me back. Thank you, Mr. Ian.”
Ian raised his eyebrows slightly. “Why do you always seem to be guarding against me as if I’m a thief? Do I have ulterior motives or something?”
“No, you’re thinking too much. I’m just not used to being too close to strangers.”
“I’ve seen you a few times. Are you a stranger?”
“Are we very familiar with each other?” Feng Ling asked instead of answering.
She had no intention of giving him a chance to take advantage of her. He had met countless women who were shrewd and scheming, but he had never seen such a stubborn woman. More importantly, when she saw that he was interested in her, she was even more distant.
If this was her way of seducing men, he could only congratulate her on her success.
But this was not her intention. She really did not want to have anything to do with him.
“All right, I won’t argue with you.” Ian glanced at her car. “I’ll accompany you to the car. I’ll leave if your friend comes.”
Feng Ling didn’t say anything and walked toward her car.
In any case, he had arranged a VIP room for her in the hospital, so he quickly called a doctor over to help her bandage her wound. This way, she wouldn’t have to wait in line.
After returning to the car, Feng Ling sat in the driver’s seat, picked up her coat, and put it on. The sleeves of the coat covered the white gauze on her wrist. Then she picked up her phone and kept looking, ignoring the man sitting in the pa.s.senger seat.
However, her phone was suddenly taken away from her hand. She looked at the empty phone, and in the blink of an eye, she saw that Ian was smoothly and naturally taking her phone to call his own.
Feng Ling looked at him. “What are you doing?”
“Give me your number, and we’ll know each other in the future. We’ll no longer be strangers.” Ian was very direct. After receiving her phone number, he did not say anything more and handed it back to her before she flew into a rage. “Don’t worry. I’m very busy too. I don’t have much time to disturb you. But since we’re both single, it shouldn’t be too much to contact each other when we’re not busy. It doesn’t violate any morals. You can be uninterested in me, but it won’t stop me from being interested in you. There’s still a long way to go.”
Feng Ling reached over and s.n.a.t.c.hed her phone away. Seeing that he had saved her phone number into his contact list, she was clearly unhappy. “You’re being rude.”
“If I am too polite, I can’t get the woman I like.”
“…”
Were men so shameless when chasing women nowadays?
As expected, only the cold and aloof Mr. Mo was pleasing to the eye. In the past, aside from being nice to Ji Nuan, his att.i.tude toward everyone else was so cold that it was as though they were separated from each other’s world. He never did anything to make things difficult for others. Even to Ji Nuan, he treated her sincerely. He had never played so many tricks.
She did not speak anymore, nor did she want to communicate with this person. She just looked at the time on her phone impatiently, waiting for Xiao Ba to rush over.
At this moment, the man next to her suddenly reached over and leaned closer. When Feng Ling abruptly turned to look at him, the man had one hand on the steering wheel in front of her and the other on the chair behind her. Although he did not put too much distance between them, the way he locked her in the driver’s seat caused Feng Ling’s eyelids to twitch.
“How deep of an injury did you have to hide your heart so well?” Ian looked into her eyes. “You’re so young. You shouldn’t be so depressed.”
Feng Ling looked away expressionlessly and was too lazy to answer.
…
America, Los Angeles.
Li Corporation.
“CEO Li.”
Secretary Yu Zheng knocked on the door and entered the CEO’s office, holding a few meeting doc.u.ments in his hand. When the group of men entered, he was actually a bit nervous. After all, Li Nanheng had taken over the Li Corporation for several months. Although he was swift, decisive, and had made the company seem like a new layer of skin, his overall performance was slowly improving. In the past six months, when he returned, the Li Corporation had been in its best condition. However, CEO Li had always been a good person, but his temper was always bad. Besides the necessary work relations.h.i.+p, he rarely communicated with the a.s.sistants and secretaries in the company.
However, there was an a.s.sistant named Xiao Xu by CEO Li’s side. It was said that he had followed CEO Li out of XI Base for many years. He was efficient, diligent, and tight-lipped. Aside from interacting more with Xiao Xu, CEO Li usually worked with a dark face and rarely smiled.
Thus, although everything in the Li Corporation had been progressing well in the past six months, this CEO Li, who never showed them any respect, really made his subordinates tremble in fear when facing his secretaries and a.s.sistants.
Earlier, he was in a meeting when Xiao Xu called him. Afterward, CEO Li saw a photo or something in his phone. His expression was so dark that it could freeze the room. Everyone in the meeting room was so shocked that they didn’t even dare to breathe.
