Chapter 1320: The Story of Ling and Heng (583)
Feng Ling really wanted to scold herself for being useless. She always thought that she was very powerful, but when she really fell into the business circle’s trap, she found that she really might not be able to handle it.
In the first ten months, she had been fighting with the people in the company and had yet to stretch her hand out.
Now that she had reached out to the outside, she finally understood how bad the people in this circle were.
She was quiet for a moment before suddenly turning back. “I’ve just been educated by CEO E. CEO Li, do you have any other advice?”
Earlier, Li Nanheng had publicly said that she was his woman, but now Feng Ling had a vigilant look on her face, as if saying, “I’m not familiar with you”. Her entire body was cold and alert, and she looked as if she would walk out at any moment.
At this time, she could still be stubborn. Li Nanheng was so angry that he laughed.
He unhurriedly unb.u.t.toned his exquisite collar. The aura he exuded was different from before, and he truly had the aura of a leader in the business circle. His black eyes stared at her coldly, and his voice was low and indifferent. “Come here.”
Feng Ling’s scalp turned numb from his stare. It was as though he was looking down at her when she was thrown into the training ground for devil training in her teens.
In her heart, she kept telling herself not to get involved with him on such an occasion. “Sorry, today’s occasion isn’t suitable for newbies in the business circle like me. Everyone, have fun. I think I should…”
“I asked you to come here.” Li Nanheng interrupted her mercilessly. The self-ridicule of the newbies in the business circle caused his brows to furrow slightly and his gaze to become heavy.
Feng Ling clenched her fists in her sleeves. Although Yu Zheng was not very familiar with this Miss Feng, he could tell that CEO Li was on the verge of losing his temper. CEO Li clearly wanted to help her, but why did Miss Feng keep avoiding him?
Everyone present could see that the two of them were moving in and out of the room. They couldn’t help but suspect the relations.h.i.+p between Miss Feng and Li Nanheng.
Feng Ling glanced at him again and met Li Nanheng’s eyes. She pondered for a moment and turned back.
“It’s just a small matter. There’s really no need for Mr. Li to interfere.” She raised her eyes to meet his. “There’s also no need to make our relations.h.i.+p so ambiguous in such a situation. This method isn’t what I want.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Li Nanheng’s black eyes narrowed coldly, and his pupils shrank. His tightly pursed lips curved into a mocking smile, but his expression was extremely cold.
The celebrities around the man couldn’t help but s.h.i.+ver. Yu Zheng, who was standing by the side, felt that this lady was looking for death…
Li Nanheng ignored the crowd behind him and walked to the front of her. He looked at her, bent down, and whispered in her ear in a voice only she could hear, “No matter how stubborn your temper is, you still have to pick the right time. Are you sure you want to face me at such a time?” He spoke with a low, cold smile, and every word he said seemed to carry some icicles.
“Otherwise, am I supposed to admit that I’m related to you in front of so many people?” Feng Ling said and stepped back.
“Think about it carefully. If you lose this billion yuan because of your temper, you’ll have to prepare to marry me soon. I gave you face and saved you some leeway. Are you not going to give yourself any leeway now?” The man’s voice was still cold and indifferent, but there was a hint of mockery. “Where did your courage to make a bet with me go? I’m afraid I’m not used to marrying you so easily.”
As she listened, her heart began to beat wildly.
She was confident in the bet, but now, her confidence was mostly gone. After all, someone had suddenly appeared.
She did not speak, but she hated that their positions were not equal. It was like this in the past, and it was the same now. However, every time she thought about it, he seemed to be the first to give in.
At the thought of this, her eyes gradually melted, but there was still some stubbornness in her eyes that refused to cooperate. The biggest resentment in her heart was that she felt that she should have listened to Qin Shuke’s suggestion and given up on CEO E’s financing. She should not have taken this risk and ended up embarra.s.sing herself in front of Li Nanheng.
Feng Ling didn’t realize that the real reason she was upset and angry was because she had embarra.s.sed herself in front of Li Nanheng. She just felt very unhappy.
Seeing that she was still trying to draw the line, Li Nanheng clenched his jaw. In the next second, he suddenly reached out and held her in his arms.
Sensing his movement, Feng Ling took a step back in shock, but was quickly pulled back by the man. The moment she fell into his arms, the man’s voice was right next to her ear, as if whispering to her, and as if his voice could be heard by everyone. “Why are you still throwing a tantrum at me? I only angered you last night. Don’t you want to give me a face in front of so many people? You are my fiancée”
Fiancée?!!!
The crowd was in an uproar!
Feng Ling :”…”
She was about to push him away, but the man had already released her. At the same time, he lowered his eyes to look at her burning gaze. There was a smile in his eyes, but that smile was clearly warning her not to speak carelessly.
If he did not allow her to speak, could he speak so carelessly?
Whose fiancée?
She had only touched the wall with CEO E and had other plans. It was not even a month’s time. How could he shamelessly proclaim himself as her fiancée? Did she agree?
However, in a sense, Feng Ling was also labeled as someone not to be provoked.
Li Nanheng was a very important figure in the business circle of the Chinese. Although he had just taken over the Li Corporation, he rarely partic.i.p.ated in these banquets. Except for those who often worked with the Li family, most people had never interacted with this young master of the Li family.
However, the rumors were all about how unapproachable this man was, how difficult it was to get close to him, and how abstinent he was. Thus, all the socialites present were very interested in him.
However, today, this man had personally shattered their fantasies. Was he… already engaged?
