Qi Lingxuan quickly walked to the door of the conference room and saw First Master waiting anxiously.
Upon seeing his son, he quickly said, “Come in with me.”
After the two of them entered, the door closed.
Secretary Si brought Tang Li to Qi Yihan’s office. After opening the door, he said to her, “If Madam needs anything, you can tell the other secretaries.”
“Alright.”
After Tang Li walked in, Secretary Si returned to the conference room.
At around ten o’clock, Imperial Capital City was brightly lit, especially the business center. There were tall buildings and large international companies all around.
Tang Li sat on the sofa by the French window. As she looked out the window, she took out her phone.
Previously, the higher-ups asked her to do something for them. Knowing that she would have time in a few days, she called Minister Liang.
After the two of them discussed when they would meet, Tang Li started to do research on opening an entertainment company.
There were many procedures to start an entertainment company.
She could get someone to help her start the company, but she wanted to find the talents herself.
When there was something to do, time passed quickly. When the office door was opened, Tang Li realized that it was already half past midnight.
Then, she turned to look at the man who walked in.
There was a layer of coldness on the man’s body. When she looked over, he concealed that layer of coldness.
He walked behind Tang Li and placed one hand on the back of the sofa and the other on her shoulder. He leaned forward and kissed her lips, saying, “Madam, sorry to keep you waiting.”
“It’s alright.” Tang Li put away her phone and stood up. She walked up to him and wrapped her arms around his neck. “Did the meeting tonight not go smoothly?”
“Yes, Lingxuan was in charge of the project that First Brother worked on after we left. First Brother couldn’t answer any of the questions I asked him, so we waited for Lingxuan for two hours.”
Qi Yihan was very angry with this father and son, so he lost his temper tonight.
Tang Li touched his face and said, “Then punish them properly.”
“Mm.” Qi Yihan patted her waist. “I’ll clean up the desk and then we’ll go down for supper.”
At the mention of supper, Tang Li thought of the crispy meat she brought back. “No need. I brought some crispy meat from Professor Wang’s house. It’s still hot in the bag. Let’s go to the car to eat later.”
Qi Yihan didn’t object.
After he was done cleaning, the two of them walked out together.
As soon as they walked out of the office, they saw First Master and Qi Lingxuan walking out of First Master’s office one after another.
First Master’s expression was ugly and ashen, but Qi Lingxuan looked indifferent.
The four of them walked into the elevator together.
First Master glanced at Qi Yihan and Tang Li before retracting his gaze and asking Qi Lingxuan, “Are you going back with me or not?”
Hearing that, Tang Li look at Qi Lingxuan.
Qi Lingxuan, on the other hand, looked at the number button. With a straight face, he looked arrogant.
First Master didn’t expect Qi Lingxuan to be so stubborn. He was so angry that he was about to flare up.
Qi Lingxuan said, “If you want me to go back and marry Tan Wenjing, then you can continue to pretend that I’m not your son. I won’t marry her.”
Being threatened by his son in front of Tang Li and the others, First Master was furious again. He asked with a straight face, “How is Tan Wenjing not good enough for you?”
“I don’t want to marry a woman who wants to set me up.”
“You…”
Ding!
When the elevator arrived at the parking lot, Tang Li held Qi Yihan’s arm and the two of them walked out first.
After First Master got into the car, his tone finally softened a little. “You’ve had enough of throwing a tantrum. Whether you want to marry Tan Wenjing or not, we’ll talk about it later. However, you were the one who negotiated the collaboration with HRZ Group. They’ve already sent someone over to discuss the details. If you don’t show up, how are we supposed to discuss the details?”
“Don’t you have two other sons?”
“You…” Since he wouldn’t listen, First Master decided not to talk about it anymore.” No matter what, you have to participate in this project. Also, come back with me tonight.”
“What if I don’t go back?” Qi Lingxuan no longer had any feelings for his father, nor did he plan to give him a face. He knew that in the end, he would definitely return to the Qi family because without him, the project would be certain to fall flat.
“You…” First Master was so angry that his face and neck turned red. He wanted nothing more than to slap this thing to death. However, when he thought of the project, he endured it.” If you don’t want to marry her, then don’t. You’ve caused enough trouble. Come back with me. ”
Qi Lingxuan looked at the anger in the man’s eyes and smiled mockingly.
However, this time, he didn’t refuse. His goal was to make First Master take back his words about marrying Tan Wenjing. WIthout punishing the people who killed the granny who raised him up, Qi Lingxuan would never leave the Qi house.
…
When Tang Li and Qi Yihan returned home, it was already past one.
Qi Yihan felt sorry about making Tang Li wait until so late at night every night. After lying on the bed, he hugged her waist and said, “Don’t come and pick me up when I’m working overtime in the future. Go back and rest early.”
Tang Li looked at him and said with a smile, “I feel like something is missing if I don’t hug you to sleep.”
Hearing that, Qi Yihan smiled.
He lowered his head and kissed her lips before burying his head in her shoulder. His voice was hoarse and bewitching. “It’s my fault.”
Tang Li smiled. She put her thigh on top of him and fell asleep.
The next morning, when Tang Li woke up, Qi Yihan was already out of bed.
At that moment, faint voices came from outside. It was Linlin asking Qi Yihan, “First Master, is Master awake?”
Qi Yihan, “No, let her sleep.”
Linlin, “Alright, I’ll go for a run with Uncle Zhang and Qiqi.”
Qi Yihan, “Let’s go. I’ll go with you.”
“Alright.”
The sound quickly disappeared. Tang Li rubbed her face against the blanket and then fell back into her slumber.
When she woke up again, it was quiet.
When she washed up and went out, Butler Yang was the only one standing in the courtyard outside the house.
When Butler Yang heard footsteps, he turned around and greeted her, “Good morning, Madam.”
“Good morning, Butler Yang.” Tang Li glanced at Butler Yang and found that his lips were dry and his eyes were slightly bloodshot. She said, “Butler Yang, your fever has been getting more serious recently. I’ll prescribe you some pills later. After taking the pills, I guarantee that you can recover immediately.”
