Fortunately, Rong Yan arrived at the office early and removed all of the flowers and love messages. Otherwise, the media might just blow things up and fabricate stories.
Once the rumors spread, the Baina International stock prices would definitely be affected.
It was no wonder that Rong Yan would be infuriated. Previously, it was the CEO of Imperial Court, Mo Qiange and this time, it’s a dauntless man who had the audacity to confess to Luo Anning.
It would be strange for Rong Yan to not be infuriated!
Luo Anning left Xu Zhiyuan alone and returned to her office. She then switched on her laptop and got ready to work, after which she received an email from Xu Zhiyuan.
She decided to open it out of curiosity.
The photo was enlarged after some buffering and Luo Anning got a great shock.
The grand and opulent entrance of the Baina International office tower was actually decorated by a gigantic heart-shaped wreath made of stunning and vibrant roses. In the middle of the wreath, were the words arranged in blue roses – “Anning, I love you.”
There were several photos of different sizes that were taken from different angles. Clearly, there was more than one culprit.
Seems like the employees were staring at me peculiarly because of those roses.
Luo Anning pressed a hand on her aching head and walked towards the French window where she grabbed her mobile phone and gave Du Xiaoran a call.
“Anning, do you like the gift?” Du Xiaoran asked in a jovial and gentle tone.
“Xiaoran… it’s over between us. I’m now Rong Yan’s wife. Don’t do those silly and meaningless things anymore,” Luo Anning said while biting her lip.
Du Xiaoran fell silent.
After a long while, Du Xiaoran asked, “Anning had I not let you go back then, would things be different now? Would I have become your husband?”
Luo Anning’s heart sank and she answered, “… Xiaoran, there are no ifs in this world. It’s… over between us… ”
“Haha… Anning, you’re still as resolute as you always were.”
Luo Anning smiled wryly. She had to be decisive and resolute since she was now Rong Yan’s wife and every action of hers would affect the Rong Family and Baina International.
She could not tarnish Baina’s reputation because of her personal reasons, at least not when she was still Young Madam Rong.
After smiling for a while, Du Xiaoran said with a straight face, “Anning, I won’t give up on you. If I knew that this would be the outcome after struggling for so long, I would have returned two years ago instead of letting you go because of a ridiculous reason.”
“Xiaoran, what’s the point of that? You know that I’m already married to Rong Yan and that’s a fact that cannot be changed. I’m not good enough for you so you don’t have to waste anymore time on me. Change your perspective and you’ll realize that there are plenty of other women who are better than me in this world.”
“But, you’re the only woman I want!”
“Xiaoran… you’re just making things harder for me now.”
“I understand but this is inevitable. I have the rights to express my love and you have your rights to reject me too but you don’t have the right to stop me from loving you.”
…
Luo Anning sat feebly on the couch after hanging up. Du Xiaoran was too stubborn and could not be persuaded.
She could only hope for him not to do anything too absurd.
After ending the call, she received another email from Xu Zhiyuan which roughly meant, “Young Master Rong is throwing a fit in the office and smashing everything in sight.”
All the employees on that floor were pleading for her to calm him down, for fear of being attacked by the infuriated Rong Yan.
