《Love's Vicissitudes: A Pursuit of Beloved Wife》C41. An Awkward Meeting
Advertisement
Li Fengjue's face changes, and he shuts up.
Taking a deep breath, Yuexi gathers all her courage and says, "No one knows the relationship between us except for the Li and Xu families, so who I am with has nothing to do with you. Since we don't have feelings for each other, there is no need to continue pretending to be a good couple. "
Li Fengjue reaches out and grabs her wrist, with his eyebrows frowning, and says in a cold voice, "You have no feelings for me? Then that day why did you go to Fengdu regardless of everything when you heard that I was in trouble?"
Yuexi is dumbfounded, with her heart trembling.
She was indeed worried about Li Fengjue that time. After that romantic night, she misunderstood his feelings for her.
She thought she met a good man. But when she learned the truth, she was like being poured by cold water from head to toe, and her body was without a trace of temperature.
She is nothing more than a pawn in his mind, a pawn with no importance.
Thinking of this, she clenches her fists tightly and looks at him and says, "It was a misunderstanding. If you could answer the phone that day, I wouldn't be stupid to run to Fengdu, nor would I almost lose my life. What I didn’t expect is that the reason why you didn’t answer the phone was because you saw a woman who you love but can’t have, so you panicked and were also afraid of my questioning!”
Hearing these words, Li Fengjue's long eyes narrow into a slit, with a hint of danger in them, "Who told you these?"
The strength of his hand increases. Yuexi frowns because of the pain, and her heart is even more sullen.
Li Fengjue's reaction tells her that her guess is true.
With a sneer, Yuexi doesn't know whether she is happy or sad, and she says, "Do you think I need other people to tell me these things? The reason why you don't want to marry Xu Ziqi is not for the so-called freedom, but because you are afraid that your sister-in-law will be jealous. When she saw us in bed, you couldn’t explain, so you just left me and ran away.”

Yuexi’s wishful thinking seems rather ridiculous in terms of these things. She doesn’t know about how long Li Ya and Li Fengjue have known each other, and how long they have fallen in love. She doesn’t know any of these!
Why did Li Fengjue save her? Not out of kindness, but she still has use value.
Taking a deep breath, Yuexi continues, "It's not easy to find such a fool like me, right? When I suffered in the hospital, you were missing, but when Li Ya called you, you came back as soon as you could. Isn’t the difference too obvious? "
Li Fengjue's face becomes gloomier, pinching her wrist harder.
Yuexi sneers, "She is your favorite woman, but I was almost killed by her. You are indifferent about that, and now you are even asking me to behave like your obedient wife. Don’t you find it too ridiculous?"
His eyes are filled with anger, and his sharp jaw tightens. Of course Yuexi knows that he is angry, but how about her, isn’t she feeling painful in her heart?
Li Fengjue shakes her hand hard. He stands up sharply, slams the door behind him, and leaves.
Yuexi is lying on the bed. Her ankle gets painful, but her heart is more painful just like being stung by a needle.
Li Fengjue will never come again, as long as they talk about all these openly, they do not need to meet again.
Tonight is doomed to be a sleepless night.
Early the next morning, Yuexi comes to the company and hears that Lin Chuchu has resigned.
In the end, Lin Chuchu didn’t do nothing wrong. She wants to pursue a happy and more tasteful life, and this is human nature, but Yuexi is not feeling good in her heart.
If Xu Tianyun knows that Lin Chuchu put drug in the lipstick, how would he feel?
As soon as she sits down, Liu Chen comes over with a cold face and throws a stack of documents on the table.

Yuexi looks at him puzzled and asks, "Manager Liu, what does this mean?"
"This is the task assigned to you by our boss. Although the contract has been signed with the Li's consortium, we can’t be sloppy about the subsequent product docking and other potential problems. The company will send you to ..."
"I will not go!" Yuexi flatly refuses.
This time is not the same as last time. She just scolded Li Fengjue last night. How can she go to discuss business with him today? She doesn’t want to be embarrassed.
Liu Chen sneers and throws another stack of documents on her table.
"This is the task assigned to you by the company, and our boss has already flown to the UK today. If you have any problem, you can talk to him when he comes back.
After saying this, he glares at her fiercely.
Yuexi feels strange about it. She doesn't seem to have offended him much, why is he so angry and particulate to her today?
Suddenly she thinks of Lin Chuchu's resignation, could it be because of this?
Looking at the documents in front of her, Yuexi feels a headache.
She hugs herself tightly, making a howling cry.
Today Chen Ying asks for leave and doesn’t come. She has no one to complain to. She has no other way but to take this difficult task.
Liu Chen assigns several interns to her, together with several technical backbones, who are ready to go to the Li company to discuss some business issues.
Yuexi is very worried along the way. Interns are happily talking, and she is the only person so nervous that her palms sweat.
She now has only one idea in her heart, which is to avoid meeting Li Fengjue, otherwise they will be so embarrassed.
But people always meet someone who he or she doesn’t want to see.
Under the Hilton Building, when they get off the car, they just meet Zhao Ya and Li Fengjue.
Yuexi takes a breath, quickly lowers her head, trying to avoid them, and then enter the building.
Unexpectedly, her colleagues all step forward and greet Li Fengjue enthusiastically.
"Good morning, president Li, we are employees from Hongsheng. Today we are coming to talk about the technical issues."
Li Fengjue makes a cold face and doesn't speak a word. Zhao Ya, who is standing beside, smiles and says, "Who is the person in charge?"
Hearing this, the colleagues all turn back and look at Yuexi.
She just lifts her foot and now has to put it back. She purses the corners of her mouth to make a smile, stepping forward, and reaches out politely to hold Zhao Ya's hand.
"Miss Zhao, I am Bai Yuexi, from Hongsheng, and I am in charge of this project."
Zhao Ya smiles again and says, "Okay, when I send the president out, we will ..."
Before her words are finished, Li Fengjue's cold sight comes over, but instead of looking at Yuexi, he looks at Zhao Ya and says, "Today's meeting is canceled, you can go now."
After saying this, he lifts his slender legs and returns to the building again.
Looking at his back, Yuexi breathes a sigh of relief, but the dangling heart is a little painful now.
The colleagues who follow behind her all see that the relationship between them is so subtle, and they are all talking about it.
"It seems that the rumors are all false. President Li looks at her so coldly, just like looking at a stranger."
"Yeah, they must have nothing to do with each other!"
