Chapter 29: Ye Chen’s Scheme
Surrounded by dignitaries, she was just an ordinary employee…
“Hey, it’s really something else, me, the boss, actually serving my employee. You feeling honored? Want me to light up your ancestral grave too?” Lu Li raised an eyebrow, looking at Chen Xiaoyi with a teasing remark.
“…” Chen Xiaoyi gave Lu Li a reproachful look. Even at a time like this, this bad guy was still joking with her.
“Lu Li is always so gentle, always able to see when I’m nervous, using humor to ease the tension. So warm!” she thought foolishly, seeing a gentle affection in Lu Li’s gaze.
For a moment, Chen Xiaoyi felt as if she wasn’t so nervous anymore.
“So, this is Lu Li!” Ye Chen squinted his eyes. The recent happenings between Lu Li and Zhang Ziqin had spread throughout Hangzhou!
Looking at Lu Li holding hands with Chen Xiaoyi, for some reason, Ye Chen felt an inexplicable irritation rise within him, as if something that should belong to him was taken by Lu Li.
An unnamed flame seemed to burn in his heart.
Zhang Ziqin tried to keep herself calm, holding back the tears that threatened to fall, maintaining her usual cold demeanor.
“Lu Li no longer likes me. I can’t do anything that she would dislike.” She admonished herself internally.
Forcing a smile, she stepped forward: “Lu Li, you’re here. Let’s go in together!”
Once, Lu Li would wait for her like this for any minor or major banquet, but she never gave him a good look. Now, it was her turn.
Only by truly experiencing it did she understand how Lu Li must have felt back then.
Chen Xiaoyi, worried, gripped Lu Li’s arm tighter. She had no good feelings towards Zhang Ziqin, who had hurt Lu Li repeatedly.
Taking from Lu Li, yet treating such a good man as a tool.
This is a bad woman.
“Miss Zhang, I think I’ve made myself very clear! What, your lapdog ran away, and you couldn’t help but want to chase him back?”
With a hint of mockery, Lu Li’s expression turned a bit cold.
“No… no, I never saw you as a lapdog. I just, just…” Struggling to smile, hearing Lu Li refer to himself that way, she couldn’t help but feel more heartache.
Everyone saw Lu Li as a lapdog, but he was the only one who tirelessly pursued her for so many years, including the previous life, even longer. All because of her!
“Enough, Miss Zhang. Why deceive yourself? Haven’t you always treated me as your faithful hound? I admit I pursued you before, but now I don’t want to anymore, is that not alright? I think I made myself very clear last time. Also, we’re not that close, please don’t directly address me by my name,” Lu Li scoffed internally.
Putting on such a pitiful act for whom to see? It’s just that I used to always be by her side, attending to her every need, and now that I’ve suddenly stopped and forcibly terminated our cooperation, this woman panics, wanting to pull me back.
Zhang Ziqin’s current actions only disgust Lu Li. Only her despair could make Lu Li happy.
Thinking of his past self, Lu Li found it laughable, actually hoping to move this woman one day, to change his fate.
“It’s not like that, not like that, Lu Li, listen to me…”
Zhang Ziqin wanted to explain, but Lu Li had no time to discuss anything here, walking past her with Chen Xiaoyi.
Seeing Zhang Ziqin in pain didn’t bring Lu Li pleasure. He didn’t want her crocodile tears; what Lu Li envisioned was far more ruthless than Zhang Ziqin’s current demeanor.
Stepping back to be forgotten, such an idea is nonsense to Lu Li.
“Seems like the unilateral termination of cooperation by Lu Corporation has a bigger impact on Zhang Corporation than I imagined!” Ye Chen darkly thought.
Looking at the distant, desolate figure of Zhang Ziqin, Ye Chen’s eyes flashed with eagerness. His desire to possess her wasn’t new.
In his eyes, Zhang Ziqin must be somewhat unable to let go because her lapdog had stopped licking her, coupled with the difficulties faced by Lu Corporation, leading her to make such an irrational move.
Otherwise, could Zhang Ziqin fall for Lu Li, that waste? Haha, don’t joke.
“Tsk tsk, such a beauty was never suitable for that waste Lu Li. Only a man like me is worthy of her.”
With a sly grin, the perfect time for him to offer his concern was now; women would be moved immediately.
Approaching, Ye Chen looked earnestly at Zhang Ziqin, “Miss Zhang, you remember me, right? I’m Ye Chen, we met at the Zhang family’s banquet before.”
But Zhang Ziqin didn’t respond, just blankly watched Lu Li and Chen Xiaoyi walk away, experiencing the pain once again.
So, seeing the person you love with someone else hurts so much!
Like a knife cutting one’s heart repeatedly.
What did I do in my past life!!!
“Miss Zhang, Lu Li doesn’t care about you, even bringing another woman in front of you, truly heartless. Why bother feeling sad for him? It’s not worth it! If you want to get back at him, why not use his method? Hold my hand, and we’ll show him. He will definitely regret it, realizing your importance in his heart.” Ye Chen didn’t care, continuing with his vile thoughts.
“Also, we can talk about cooperation. Collaborating with my Dragonfly Group will bring far greater benefits than with Lu Corporation.”
Giving an excuse, a reason, women in turmoil easily fall for it, especially when their vengeance rises, needing just an excuse like ‘this is just a test for him’ to act, Ye Chen was confident.
Once Zhang Ziqin does this, she and Lu Li would be completely cut off, and Ye Chen wouldn’t allow his designated woman to still pine for another man.
He really wanted Lu Li to see the woman he once loved fall into his arms!
