In just a few seconds, he Yanran’s expression had already returned to normal. She could not tell that Lin Yan had just given her a huge embarrassment.
He Yanran was good at and knew how to endure. Perhaps it was related to the environment where she had been living under someone else’s roof since she was young. Even if she wanted to imitate Lin Yan’s high and mighty arrogance, she could not learn it. She often felt like she was imitating Lin Yan.
She would often be envious, but she also knew in her heart that Lin Yan’s illustrious family background was destined to make her dazzling and eye-catching. She was born with it, and it had long been integrated into her soul and carved into her bones and blood.
As for her, it was difficult to draw a tiger’s skin and bones. There was only skin and no essence at all.
Lin Yan smiled, and her tone was even more hypocritical than before. “okay, see you tonight. ”
He Yanran retracted her gaze from her body, crossed her arms over her chest, and left the meeting room without even turning her head.
She liked he xiaoting, so much so that she would do anything for him.
So many years of infatuation and waiting, but it could not compare to the short few months that Lin Yan had appeared.
She was unwilling, truly unwilling.
She graduated from a top-notch University in the United States and was quite talented in business. Her personal abilities were also very outstanding. Even if he xiaoting was not around, she could still manage the he corporation in an orderly manner.
She was tactful in her work and knew the ways of the world.
She and Lin Yan were only separated by a prominent background. Why couldn’t she be the one standing by he xiaoting’s side?
No one could snatch he xiaoting away from her, especially Lin Yan.
The sound of he Yanran’s footsteps on the marble floor grew further and further until she could no longer hear them. Lin Yan stood up with the documents in her hands and walked out of the meeting room, walking towards the design department at the end of the corridor.
Just as she put down the documents, the phone in her uniform pocket vibrated. She took it out and took a look. It was a text message from an unknown number.
She clicked to check it. The next second, a line of words came into her sight. “Come here. I’m in the staff bathroom. ”
Almost without thinking, she had already guessed that the person who sent the message was Fu Qingshan.
She frowned and typed a few words nimbly with her fingers. “I’m sorry. It’s work time now. I really don’t have time to meet unimportant people. Please forgive me. ”
After typing, she clicked send.
After waiting for a few seconds, the other party replied, “If you don’t come, I’ll come find you. ”
Lin Yan bit her lip. How could she have forgotten that with this man’s level of shamelessness, how could he be dismissed by her with just a few words?
She took a deep breath and typed another line of words. “stand there and don’t move. I’ll come find you. ”
“Okay! ”
Without thinking too much, she quickly walked to the staff washroom on the other side of the corridor.
After more than ten seconds, she walked into the staff washroom in her high heels. At first glance, she saw a tall man lazily leaning against the washstand and puffing out clouds.
In order to prevent her colleagues from discovering her and Fu Qingshan, she first pushed the door open and looked at the female washroom on the right. When she saw that there was no one inside, she pulled the man in and locked the door.
Fu Qingshan’s originally indifferent and expressionless face slowly had some expression because of her flustered and helpless expression. However, it was very shallow, so shallow that it seemed like an illusion.
“Fu Qingshan, are you done or not? Haven’t I made myself clear enough to you? ”
Fu Qingshan’s eyebrows moved slightly. He put his hand that was holding the cigarette to his mouth and took a deep breath. Then, he slowly spat it out toward her face “Our Dingsheng is the he corporation’s biggest business partner. Without our Dingsheng, the he corporation’s annual net income would be reduced by more than 30% . so… Director Lin, are you still in a hurry to cut ties with me? ”
“Fu Qingshan, are you threatening me with the he corporation? ”
“I’m just stating the facts. ”
Lin Yan took a deep breath. “Fu Qingshan, he xiaoting and I have a mutual interest in each other. We can be considered to be of equal status. Almost everyone in Milan city knows that we’re about to get married. Why can’t you be an ex-husband that people will miss? ”
He didn’t say anything. After a thin layer of smoke, his eyes were cold and calm.
After a long time, Lin Yan felt a tightness in her chest. She couldn’t even breathe properly. Then, he said in a low voice, “Lin Yan, it’s still not too late for you to give up now. ”
“Fu Qingshan, I’ll tell you one last time. I won’t give up. I want to marry he xiaoting. I want to give birth to him… MMM. ”
Before Lin Yan could finish her words, she was sealed between her lips and teeth by the man’s sudden kiss.
His kiss was not gentle at all. It was deliberately torturous and extremely aggressive. It took over every corner of her mouth.
She widened her eyes and looked at the handsome face that was right in front of her. She could not react for a long time.
The thick smell of tobacco in his mouth almost drowned out her sensory system. Slowly, in a breath, it was filled with the smell of his mouth.
A few seconds later, Lin Yan finally reacted. A pair of small hands pressed against his chest, trying to push him away, but it did not move him at all. Instead, he treated her even more harshly.
Every time the man could not win against her, he would kiss her. When he was angry with her, he would kiss her too. She seemed to have developed antibodies and immunity, so she would not be so easily mesmerized.
At least, at this moment, she was not completely mesmerized by him.
Moreover, this was the company, and people could come in at any time. How could she easily admit defeat to him just because of a kiss?
She raised her feet and repeatedly kicked at his calf. However, because of the way he hugged and kissed her, it did not seem aggressive. To him, it was more like an angry coquettish act.
The man used some more strength to restrain her waist, preventing her from moving around.
One Minute, two minutes, or five minutes, she could no longer distinguish.
She only felt her lips and tongue go numb, and her brain completely lost the ability to think. Her entire body was weak like a pool of water, constantly falling down.
Because of her surrender, the iron arm that restrained her waist relaxed a little. She seized this opportunity and raised her high-heeled shoes to kick at his calf, the same position as last time.
This time, she used almost all of her strength. The man let go of her because of the pain. He held his calf and did not straighten his back for a long time.
Lin Yan brushed the Maroon hair on her shoulder and raised her eyebrows slightly “Fu Qingshan, although I want to settle things peacefully, don’t forget that I’m a mentally ill person with a level one psychological trauma and a tendency to be violent. If you want to fight to the death, I don’t mind accompanying you. ”
After saying that, she walked to the door in her high heels. Just as her small hand touched the DOORKNOB, her slender wrist was grabbed by the man’s big hand beside her. Then, with a gentle pull, she landed in front of the man’s lean and strong chest.
“Yan ‘er, I’m going to ask you one last time seriously. Are you going to give up or not? ”
Lin Yan looked up and met his gaze without a moment’s hesitation. She said resolutely, “I won’t give up. ”
He licked his lips. His dark and unclear eyes were filled with unquenchable lust. His voice was Hoarse. “Yan ‘er, I hope that when you beg me in the future, you can also be so resolute. ”
Lin Yan still smiled. “Is that so? I also hope that there will be such a day. ”
After saying that, she reached out and pushed him away. She unlocked the door and walked out without turning her head back.
The bruise from last time had not completely subsided. This time, she kicked him hard again, and he could not feel his calves for a long time.
He landed on the ground and got used to it for a while before he limped out.
The afternoon sun was very bright. Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, shadows fell in, quickly dispelling the gloominess and coldness on his body.
…
Lin Yan returned to her work place from the bathroom, and she did not recover for a long time. Although she acted as if she did not care in front of him just now, how could she not care?
In her heart, she was actually very afraid that Fu Qingshan would do something that exceeded her expectations. Other than this, she was also afraid that Fu Qingshan would use this weakness to threaten her again and again.
In the past, she had only thought that he was already at the top of the military at such a young age, which was already the limit of his ability. She did not expect that his ability to pester women was far beyond his limit.
She spent the entire afternoon in a state of uneasiness. She did not even hear he Yanran calling her when she got off work.
Her assistant, Xiao Chen, was packing up. Seeing that she was in a daze, he quickly walked over and poked her. “Lin Shi, Lin Shi, the manager is calling you. ”
Xiao Chen’s words made her thoughts return quickly. She quickly shut off her computer, picked up her handbag, and walked out.
He Yanran had been waiting at the entrance of the design department for almost a minute. Seeing Lin Yan walk over, she frowned and asked, “director Lin, this isn’t the first time you’ve gone out with me for social engagements. Do you still have to put on an unwilling look? ”
Lin Yan glanced at her. “As for. ”
He Yanran choked on her words and her expression instantly became much uglier. However, she did not continue to say anything. Instead, she walked towards the elevator entrance in her ten-centimeter high heels.
Lin Yan followed behind her and forcefully ordered herself to forget Fu Qingshan’s words.
Perhaps he was just casually saying it, but she really did not have to take it to heart to annoy herself.
During the rush hour after work, there was a bit of traffic jam on the road.
He Yanran’s driving skills were average. It could be imagined that her speed was not that fast. It was clearly only a twenty-minute drive, but she had to drive for forty minutes.
When they arrived at the reserved restaurant, due to the tight parking space, she let Lin Yan out of the car first and told her to go to the private room to entertain the guests. After she parked the car, she immediately went over.
Lin Yan nodded and walked towards the entrance of the restaurant in her ten-centimeter high heels.
When they reached the restaurant, a waiter immediately came to lead the way. It was not until they reached the entrance of the private room on the third floor that the waiter respectfully left.
Lin Yan was not sure if Fu Qingshan had arrived. Because of what he said in the afternoon, she really did not want to face him alone anymore. She planned to stand at the door and wait for he Yanran for a while. After all, she was much more professional than her when it came to socializing.
She stood at the door of the private room for about ten seconds. Before she could collect her emotions, the phone in her handbag vibrated.
She lowered her head and took out the phone from her handbag. Before she could see the number on it clearly, the door of the private room was pulled open from the inside. Then, a tall and slender man’s figure came into her sight. His slender fingers were holding the phone He was dialing her number and seemed to have noticed that she was standing at the door of the private room.
Lin Yan was stunned for two seconds before she reached out and pressed the hang-up button.
The tall and straight man didn’t say anything. He just leaned against the door frame and looked at her lazily.
Lin Yan frowned. “President Fu, are you going to stand here and talk about business tonight? ”
“As long as I want to. ”
Lin Yan pursed her lips. “President Fu, if you think I’m an eyesore, I can leave now. You don’t have to make yourself feel so uncomfortable and awkward. ”
“Oh? ”
“But what should I do? ” He smiled and clenched her jaw with a big hand. “I just like to make things difficult for myself. ”
He seemed to like seeing her being humiliated without daring to speak up. His eyes were filled with tiny, shimmering smiles.
Lin Yan could not be bothered to say anything more to him. Enduring the pain, she pulled her jaw out from his hand and walked past him.
After she walked in, the man turned around and walked in as well.
Lin Yan had been wearing high heels for a whole day and her feet were a little uncomfortable. After walking in, she sat on the dining chair, bent down, and massaged her tired ankles, completely treating him as air.
The man walked over, and his tall figure almost covered all the light above her head. Before she could react, one of her legs had already landed on the man’s half-squatting leg, under the bright chandelier on the ceiling His hands, which were even more beautiful and slender than a woman’s, were massaging her ankles. His movements were neither light nor heavy, comparable to that of a professional massage technician.
After a few seconds, it was as if she had been electrocuted. She wanted to retract her feet, but he easily pulled her back.
The disparity in strength between a man and a woman prevented her from resisting in vain. She frowned and said angrily, “Fu Qingshan, what are you doing? ”
“Can’t you tell? I’m massaging your ankle. ”
She still shrank back. “I don’t need you. ”
“Don’t move. I’ll stop after a while. ”
The implication was that if she didn’t let him massage her, he would find a million reasons to continue massaging her. She had scruples, but he didn’t.
Lin Yan didn’t move again. Since she couldn’t escape, she might as well start enjoying his massage.
He had been in the army for many years and had already developed a set of skills, including survival in the wild, bandaging injuries, rapid bleeding control, and orthopedic knowledge.
Of course, acupoint massage was even easier. What he was giving her now was acupoint massage.
A minute or two passed before she shrank her feet again. “Fu Qingshan, that’s enough. He Yanran will be here soon after parking the car. ”
“It doesn’t matter. I guess she will have to wait for a while. ”
“What do you mean? ”
“It means what it says. ”
Lin Yan felt that there was a hidden meaning in his words, but she couldn’t find anything wrong with it. She just frowned and said, “Fu Qingshan, why didn’t I know that you were so patient with me? ”
“Is that so? Maybe I didn’t show it clearly in the past. As long as you like it, I’ll show it clearly in the future so that you can feel it. ”
Lin Yan smiled. Her voice was so low that it almost reached the dust. “Fu Qingshan, you know that’s not what I mean. ”
Fu Qingshan squatted there with his head lowered. After hearing her words, he slowly raised his head and met her inquisitive eyes. “Then what do you want me to say? Say That I love you? ”
“There are more than ten million men in this world who have said that I love you, but who dares to say that I love you is really that I love you? ”
Lin Yan tried to pull her foot back from his hand again, but this time, the man did not stop her “I just want to say that this kind of thing that you have to settle for the second best is divided among people. I, Lin Yan, am good at everything except for being able to take it and not let it go. But if one day I let it go, then I really let it go. ”
“It’s said that a good horse doesn’t go back to its roots. I think I’ve already done it twice, but the third time is the charm. Fu Qingshan, we don’t have a chance anymore. ”
“after all this, you don’t want to have anything to do with me anymore? HMM? ”
Lin Yan looked at him deeply with her watery eyes. After a while, she nodded. “Yes, Fu Qingshan. No matter what you say, I won’t change my mind. I don’t want to have anything to do with you anymore. ”
“okay, as long as this is what you want, I promise you. ”
Lin Yan didn’t expect him to agree to her so easily. She was stunned for a few seconds before she asked, “is what you said true? ”
“If you don’t think it’s true, I can always take it back… ”
“No need, no need. ” Lin Yan hurriedly waved her hand, “I believe you. ”
Behind her words, the box fell into an unprecedented silence, no one spoke again.
The man took a deep look at her, got up and walked to the French window. He took out a cigarette case from his trouser pocket and lit it up. After taking a deep breath, he said in a low, hoarse voice, “Yan er, if this is really what you want, I am willing to fulfill your wish. As for here… I may stay for a few more days to finish the matter at hand, and then return to the forest city. ”
Over the past few days, she seemed to have gotten used to his sudden appearance, his dominance, and his entanglement. He suddenly said that he wanted to let go and leave. For a second, she actually felt sad, but it was only for a second.
Lin Yan did not say anything. He glanced at her through the French window, then turned around and said, “after tonight, I won’t appear again. ”
She also stood up and walked to his side “I will return the key to the Milan villa to you, and then… I wish you a safe journey. Also, be good to Wen Nuan and the child. Although she’s very scheming, she’s not a bad person. This kind of woman is very suitable to be the mistress of the Fu family, and also… very suitable for you. ”
Fu Qingshan did not say anything. His deep eyes reflected the lights of the thousands of houses outside the window. She thought that he did not like to listen to these things, so she quickly changed the topic. “You… how have you managed to run Flourish & Prosper All these years? ”
“long-distance video. ”
After hearing this, Lin Yan nodded. “Flourish & Prosper is the palace where we learn design. You are very good. ”
“thank you. ”
The conversation ended there.
It was not until he yanran pushed open the door of the private room and walked in that the two of them returned to the dining table from the floor-to-ceiling window.
He Yanran first exchanged a few pleasantries with Fu Qingshan before asking, “President Fu, shouldn’t we have a drink or two to celebrate the signing of the contract tonight? ”
“Sure. ”
“then… two bottles of’78 LAFITE? ”
Lin Yan had been silent the whole time. When she heard this, she suddenly interrupted he Yanran’s words, “ask for Romani Conti. That wine is a little strong, so it’s suitable to send you off. ”
“Send you off? ”
He Yanran frowned, “send you off for who? ”
Lin Yan smiled lightly, “of course for myself. I’m going to Rome on a business trip tomorrow. ”
He Yanran did not have any objections after hearing that. She then called the waiter outside the door and ordered a few dishes and two bottles of Romani Conti.
Before the waiter served the dishes, he Yanran went out to answer two phone calls, one for five minutes and the other for eight minutes. In other words, before the dishes and wine were served, she was almost alone with Fu Qingshan. The two of them had just explained everything Being alone now was more awkward than ever, but she could not say anything.
After waiting for another ten minutes or so, the waiter brought the dishes and the already opened bottle of Romani Conti to the table. After saying please enjoy your meal, she respectfully left the private room. When the waiter walked out.. He Yanran just happened to walk in from outside.
She first apologized, then pretended to turn off her phone to apologize. Then, she poured a glass of wine for Fu Qingshan and Lin Yan respectively. Finally, she poured herself a glass of wine. Then, she raised it and looked at Fu Qingshan and Lin Yan opposite her “Director Fu, director Lin, this glass is for you. Cheers first. ”
After saying that, she drank it all in one gulp.
Fu Qingshan had not eaten dinner. His stomach had been faintly aching. He only took a small sip and did not finish it.
Lin Yan, on the other hand, finished it in one gulp, looking like she really wanted to drink.
He Yanran saw that Lin Yan was in the mood to drink, so she poured another glass for her. This time, she personally walked over and handed it to her “Director Lin, in terms of age, I’m still one year younger than you. Usually, if I do anything wrong in the company, please forgive me. I’ll drink this glass as a toast first, so help yourself. ”
After he yanran finished the red wine in her hand, Lin Yan also finished it in one gulp.
Lin Yan’s alcohol tolerance was not very good. After drinking two glasses of Romani Conti, she was already a little tipsy, and everything in front of her eyes had become overlapping shadows.
He Yanran drank two more glasses with Lin Yan and left early on the excuse that she had drunk too much. Before leaving, she asked Fu Qingshan to send Lin Yan home. Fu Qingshan nodded and did not say yes or no.
She did not delve into Fu Qingshan’s intentions. Then, she picked up her handbag and walked out of the restaurant’s private room.
Lin Yan drank too much. She did not like to make a scene, but she was not quiet either. She kept asking for more wine. In the end, Fu Qingshan could not stand it anymore and took the bottle beside her. “Yan ‘er, you drank too much. ”
“I didn’t drink too much. Look, I know who you are! ”
After she drank, she became a little honest and honest. She was no longer so overbearing and overbearing, as if she had suddenly become a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl.
Fu Qingshan frowned. “Yan ‘er, you can’t drink anymore… ”
“Don’t worry about me. If I drink too much, I’ll call for a designated driver myself. You should leave quickly. I don’t want to see you. ”
After saying that, she snatched the bottle from his hand. She had just poured the wine and hadn’t drunk it when she suddenly felt a wave of heat spreading from her body, invading her internal organs bit by bit. In the end, even her fingertips were unbelievably hot.
This feeling was very subtle, but it was also very bad.
It was subtle because she seemed to have a physiological reaction. The bad thing was that she only had Fu Qingshan by her side. If she didn’t want to feel too uncomfortable, she could only look for him.
But the strange thing was that she usually didn’t have this kind of feeling when she drank. What happened tonight?
