Ling Yiheng looked at the hung up phone with a murderous look on his face. This woman had hung up his phone!
He stared blankly at the phone for a while, and then he actually started laughing. It was like a spring breeze blowing away the rain, yet also carrying a trace of strangeness with it.
In this world, besides his mother, Zuo Zisheng was the second woman who dared to hang up on him. The more this girl fled, the closer he wanted to get to her.
If she hadn't acted too truthfully, he would have suspected that this might be a method that she wanted to capture and use in order to lure him into her trap.
However, it was impossible for him to do so even if he wanted to.
The relationship between him and Zuo Zizhen was simply a mess.
There was a knock at the door, and he said come in.
The doorknob was twisted from the outside, and when it was opened, it was the one he had been waiting for.
Because Ling Yiheng had previously gone to a meeting in the UK, there were many matters concerning the cooperation case that he had yet to discuss with Luo Yunzhi. Thus, he had arranged for him to come to the company today to discuss it.
In order to avoid offending his employees, Luo Yun had changed into the suit he disliked the most, but his tall stature made him look surprisingly handsome.
"Alright, take a seat." Ling Yi pointed towards the sofa at the side, his eyes filled with a smile.
Luo Yunzhi was also overjoyed. The deal with the British team had already allowed them to achieve twice the results with half the effort.
Others didn't know that Ling Yiheng and Luo Yunzhi were planning to create a company outside of the Luo Family's group and L. Force. The company didn't need to be big, but it could carry out independent research and development of land, and could also help Luo Yunzhi break away from the Luo Family.
Originally, Ling Yiheng wanted Luo to work directly with L. Force, but after some discussion, the two decided to set up a new company.
Now, with just a few more partnerships, the new company would be able to operate. At that time, Luoyang would be CEO, handling all the important matters of the new company, and he would have the power to compete with the Luo Family.
In the office, the two men discussed the development in detail, discovering almost simultaneously the weakness of another competitor.
"Malone Group is indeed the start of the real estate business, but they only focused on the development and utilization of the land, maximizing their benefits. They just ignored the problems of people and the environment, which is their fatal injury."
Ling Yiheng agreed with Luo Yun's words, "I've discovered it too. Then, I think we have a chance of winning. Once this development proposal can be finalized, our new company will be able to directly participate."
Both of them were almost determined to get the case, but they didn't take the other factors into account.
In another area, there were already people targeting this cooperation case, waiting for the right opportunity to make their move.
Luo Yunzhi recalled another case concerning product development and excitedly began to discuss it with him.
At this moment, he realized that something was wrong with Ling Yiheng.
"Yi Heng, it seems like you're not paying attention at all." Luo Yunzhi silently looked at Ling Yiheng for a long time, before smiling and reminding him.
Only then did Ling Yiheng come back to his senses, realizing that he had been distracted, and was thinking about how he would teach her a lesson after seeing Zuo Zixian.
He coughed lightly a few times, wanting to cover up his embarrassment. However, it was obvious that Luo Yun's friend of many years did not intend to let him go. After all, teasing Ling Yiheng was not that easy.
"Let me guess, to be able to distract young master Ling who has always placed first is definitely not that simple. A woman, I suppose? "
Looking at Luo Yun's interested expression, Ling Yiheng's face fell. He had no intention of continuing.
However, Luo Yun then mentioned Zuo Ziqian.
"I've seen the news that spread around like crazy online. It seems that Miss Zuo really has a special relationship with you."
Catching the subtle changes in Ling Yiheng's expression, Luo Yunzhi immediately understood that there must be a story going on between them. Although it wasn't necessarily as wonderful as what was written online, there was definitely a clash between the two.
"I don't know when you're going to be so nosy." Ling Yiheng replied with a faint smile.
He had thought that this would stop Luo Yun from talking about this topic, but he had not expected the other party to become even more enthusiastic.
"I don't want to get involved with other people's business, but I do care about my own brother's business. After all, who will be my sister-in-law in the future? " Luo Yunzhi said half-jokingly, his eyes continuously observing Ling Yiheng's expression.
Ling Yiheng, who was sitting opposite to him, didn't know how to reply.
After a long while, he sighed, "It seems that I can't hide anything from you."
He did not want to bring up the matter about Zuo Zixian, but Luo Yunzhi could see the concern in his heart.
"It seems that Miss Zuo is very important to you." Luo Yunzhi's tone was full of meaning, but Ling Yiheng did not reply.
Judging from his expression, he knew that he wasn't wrong.
Luo Yunzhi thought of something else as he asked sternly, "You haven't forgotten that you have a fiancee, have you?"
Ling Yiheng pinched the center of his brows, he really couldn't stop talking, "So, aren't we talking about work? "Why are you talking about my private life now?"
"Because your private life obviously affects your work, and life is not just about work." Luo Yun meant something.
Ling Yiheng waved his hands in frustration, "Alright, let's talk business first."
Seeing that he really didn't want to discuss his private life, Luo Yi didn't say anything more and continued to discuss the development of the project with him.
After the discussion was over, Ling Yiheng finally remembered to have someone prepare a cup of tea for Luo Yun. Just as he put down the phone, he heard someone knocking on the door.
Ling Yiheng knitted his brows, he knew that it was impossible for them to be here to deliver tea.
"Big brother Yi Heng, open the door. It's me."
Hearing Mika's voice, both Luo Yun and he were stunned for a moment before looking towards the door.
However, there was also a hint of anticipation in his eyes.
Ling Yiheng didn't know that he wasn't the first one to recognize Mika, but he was the first one to agree.
However, this matter was never mentioned to anyone by Luo Yunzhi, so naturally, no one else knew about it.
I didn't want to see Mika, but I let her in.
Today, she was wearing a simple casual attire. Her watery eyes were brimming with energy, and her cheeks were flushed from the intense running. However, the light makeup on was still enough to make people's eyeballs pop out.
When he saw her walk in, Luo Yunzhi's adam's apple bobbed up and down. His gaze unconsciously paused on her for a few more seconds.
"Big brother Yi Heng, you have a guest?" When Mika saw him, she was surprised. She suddenly felt that she had not come at the right time.
Just as Ling Yiheng was about to introduce him, Luo Yunzhi took the initiative to stand up and politely extended his hand towards Mika, "Hello, I'm Yi Heng's friend, Luo Yunzhi."
Luo Yun Zhi... The name hovered in her mind for a moment. It was familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had heard it before.
"Hi, I'm Mika, her Chinese name is Qiu Shitong." She held out her hand, smiled at him, and looked at him a little.
This man was tall and sturdy, a few centimeters taller than Ling Yiheng. He had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and while looking around, he carried a slightly aged look, yet he carried a very imposing manner.
He was of a completely different type from Ling Yiheng. Ling Yiheng's temperament was cold, like a glacier, while the man in front of him was full of masculinity.
Somehow, it took Luoyang a long time to let go of her hand, which made Mika feel awkward.
Ling Yiheng lowered his head to sort through the documents without noticing it. After putting them down, he asked Mika what she wanted to talk to him about.
Mika looked at Luo Yunzhi and smiled embarrassedly at Ling Yiheng, "I just bought two tickets for the movie, and they're for tonight. Yi Heng, can you accompany me to watch it?"
She had wanted to call him, but had come in person to try to get closer to him. She had been waiting for him to get off work, but she hadn't expected anyone to be in his office.
Ling Yiheng rejected him without even thinking, "I'm not free tonight. I have to see a very important partner."
He had tried his best to avoid contact with her, but it seemed that the more he retreated, the closer she would get, and this kind of Mika only gave him a headache.
A look of disappointment flashed across Mika's face, but she managed to squeeze out a smile. "So it's like this. Alright then, we'll talk about it when you have the time."
Ling Yiheng suddenly thought of something, looked at Luo Yun who was standing at the side, and asked: "Are you free tonight? Why don't you go with Mika to the play? "
Luo Yunzhi and Mika were shocked by his words, but when they came back to their senses, they laughed heartily. "I'm free, but I don't know if Miss Qiu is willing to let me join you."
Mika looked at Ling Yiheng, her eyelashes slightly trembling. After thinking for a while, she agreed, "Alright then. But don't call me Miss Qiu, it's too formal. "Since you are Yinheng's big brother's friend, you should call me Mika."
"Alright, you can ask me to allow it." Luo Yunzhi looked at her with a smile, his eyes seemed to be searching for something.
Since Luo was driving here, they chatted for a while before he took the initiative to send Mika home to change her clothes. In the evening, he would take her to see a play.
Ling Yiheng stayed in the office and continued to do business, but he and Luo were almost aware that he was just running away from Mika.
However, the most important thing seemed to be to settle the matters at hand and then fly to France to settle things with that woman, Zuo Zixian.
