Ye Zhen looked up at him. She was just saying it casually. Did he really want her to continue praising him?
Unable to think of anything, ye Zhen could only change the topic. “Uncle Li, are we going back to Your House or Qingcheng Now?”
They had already eaten. At this time, they should be back to Qingcheng, right?
“Yes. Let’s go back to my house first.”Li Junsheng squeezed her palm. Ye Zhen had long noticed that he liked to squeeze her hand.
“My parents have prepared some gifts for your grandfather and uncle.”
So now they had to go back and get the gifts.
“You don’t have to be so polite, right?”Ye Zhen was still wearing the bracelet on her hand. She couldn’t help but want to leave.
“Uncle Li, tell Auntie later that I can’t accept this, and then you can return this to your mother, okay?”
“No,”Li Junsheng refused. “If you want to return it, you can do it yourself. I Can’t take back what my mother gave me.”
Ye Zhen started to feel a headache. “Uncle Li –”
“Alright, it’s just a bracelet. It’s not a big deal. Don’t be nervous.”
“I’m not nervous.”Ye Zhen glanced at him, she was different from him. “I just feel uneasy. After all, Auntie is so good to me and really believes that I’m your girlfriend. But I lied to her.”
She could fight back against those who were unfriendly to her, or she could retaliate without holding back.
But against those who were very good to her… Ye Zhen’s heart was extremely soft. Ever since her mother passed away, there were too few people who were good to her.
She really didn’t want to lie to a person like mother Li who was sincere and caring.
“If you really don’t want to lie to her, you don’t have to.”Li Junsheng took her hand and kissed it on the lips. “If you turn a fake into a real one, then you’re not lying to her.”
What did he mean? Before ye Zhen could react, the Li family had already arrived. She couldn’t finish her sentence.
Li Junsheng’s father said that he had prepared some gifts, but ye Zhen looked at the pile of special gifts and couldn’t help but think that they were just casually prepared.
“Zhen Zhen, come over more often when you’re free. Even if Junsheng isn’t free, you can come often. When you’re coming, just give me a call. I’ll get someone to pick you up.”
“Auntie –”
“Also, Junsheng is busy with work all day and all night. If he ignores you, call me and tell me. I’ll help you teach him a lesson.”
“I won’t, Auntie. Actually –”
“If Junsheng Bullies You, tell me as well.”Mother Li smiled and patted ye Zhen’s hand. “Don’t worry, I Promise I’ll stand by your side.”
Ye Zhen didn’t have the chance to say the rest of her words. Even when she got into the car, she couldn’t say that she wasn’t Li Junsheng’s girlfriend at all.
After the car drove away from the Li family, she glared at Li Junsheng with dissatisfaction.
After being told by Li Junsheng’s mother, she felt even more guilty. What should she do?
Li Junsheng didn’t know what ye Zhen was thinking. It was a two-hour drive. He let her rest for a while.
“I don’t want to sleep now, uncle Li. I think it’s better for you to explain it to your parents. If your mother finds out, she’ll be angry.”
As for his suggestion just now, ye Zhen didn’t dare to think about it anymore.
“Don’t worry.”Li Junsheng looked at the nervousness on her face, amused. “My Mother Won’t blame you.”
How could she not blame him? She couldn’t bear the thought of her mother’s disappointed look when she found out that she wasn’t Li Junsheng’s girlfriend and was only pretending.
“Okay. Don’t think so much. I’m very busy next. I brought you home because I don’t want my mom to Nag Me. If you’re really so unwilling to help me, I’ll clarify things with my mom after I’m done with my work. How about it?”
“Okay.”Ye Zhen nodded. “Then you must make it clear to Auntie. After all, it’s not good to lie to an elder.”
Especially to such a kind elder. Ye Zhen felt really guilty.
Li Junsheng looked at the seriousness in the little girl’s eyes and laughed in his heart. His mother had known long ago that this little girl was silly.
But it was because of this that she looked even cuter. She couldn’t help but go over and give her a kiss on the lips.
Ye Zhen widened her eyes and looked at him. There was obvious blame and confusion in her eyes.
I already said that it was fake. Why is he still kissing me?
“Rest for a while. I’ll call you when we get there.”
Ye Zhen felt a little annoyed when she saw that he didn’t seem to care about the kiss just now. After thinking about it, she couldn’t help but open her mouth.
“Uncle Li, I think it’s better if you don’t mess around with your family next time.”
She suggested seriously, “That’s not good. People will think that you’re very casual.”
He’s very casual? Li Junsheng frowned. He didn’t admit to the accusation. Instead, he looked at ye Zhen’s serious little face and found it funny.
“You mean that if I don’t mess around and get other people’s consent, that’s fine, right?”
Ye Zhen nodded seriously. “Yes. Of course, you have to get other people’s consent.”
“I see.”Li Junsheng held her shoulder and looked at her seriously. “Then, Can I Kiss You Now?”
Ye Zhen looked at the enlarged face in front of her and shook her head subconsciously. Li Junsheng didn’t give her a chance. He leaned over and the unfinished words disappeared from his lips.
“If you don’t object, then you agree.”
Ye Zhen opened her mouth to speak, but how could she agree? She was simply objecting, okay?
But she didn’t have time to say the rest of the words. She heard his vague words clearly.
“Zhen Zhen, your mouth is so sweet.”
..
When ye Zhen woke up, she found the car parked outside the Lu family home.
It was getting late, and Li Junsheng was sitting next to her reading a document. The setting sun just happened to shine in from the side of the car window where he was sitting.
She saw the layer of halo on her body. It made his facial features look somewhat surreal.
Her fingertips moved slightly, trying to capture that layer of halo. But she found that her hand was held by Li Junsheng.
He was holding her hand with one hand and reading a document with the other. When she woke up, he had also felt it.
“You’re Awake?”
Li Junsheng put the document aside and looked at her eyes, which had just woken up and were still somewhat confused.
“I was still thinking that if you don’t wake up, I might kiss you awake.”
He pinched her palm and kissed her lips. “After all, sleeping beauties are all woken up by Kisses.”
Ye Zhen’s face was a little red. For Li Junsheng’s analogy, she pulled her hand out of his palm and looked around.
“Is this my grandfather’s house?”
“Yes. Let’s go. Get out of the car.”
He wouldn’t wake her up if she didn’t wake up. Ye Zhen looked at the side of his face, and a strange feeling welled up in her heart again.
He was really a gentleman, taking special care of ladies. She was asleep, and he would rather wait than wake her up.
He was usually considerate and gentle to her. His smile was especially gentle. As the mayor of a city, he did not put on airs at all.
However, such a gentleman actually did not have a girlfriend. It was really —
Lu Manjiang was especially happy to see ye Zhen and Li Junsheng coming. Today, ye Zhen’s uncle, Lu Zhixuan, was also there.
Lu Zhixuan was about the same age as Li Junsheng. Both of them were young and promising, and both of them had outstanding looks.
The two of them had interacted with each other a few times before, and they had something in common.
Ye Zhen sat at the side and did not speak. She listened attentively to the two of them.
She was not an idiot. Except that she was slower than the average person in terms of emotions and reactions. However, she was quite sharp in other aspects.
Li Junsheng’s position determined that he saw things differently from them. When they were chatting, they hit the nail on the head with just a few words. Every suggestion was pertinent, feasible, and well-analyzed.
Lu Zhixuan was chatting happily with him. When he spoke, his expression was excited, and his eyes were bright.
Li Junsheng was opposite him. No matter what topic he was talking about, when he spoke, there was never too much emotion, nor was there too much of it
Ye Zhen narrowed her eyes and occasionally chatted with Lu Manjiang. But from time to time, her gaze would fall on Li Junsheng. This was really a very gentle person.
Who knew who would have such good luck in the future to be able to get him like this.
Li Junsheng was chatting with Lu Zhixuan, but he did not miss ye Zhen. Feeling her gaze on him, he smiled without a trace.
The results were good.
..
When ye Zhen entered the company, she realized that the way those people looked at her was different again. She ignored those people as if nothing had happened and went straight to the elevator.
When she entered the elevator, there were a lot of people inside. She even smelled the smell of breakfast, which made her frown uncomfortably.
There were colleagues crowding around her. It was Xiao Xu from the same department. The way she looked at her was full of gossip.
Ye Zhen glanced at her, not intending to talk to her.
She had only wanted to teach ye Ninghan a lesson. She didn’t expect Li Junsheng to really come into the company and carry her away.
She was probably already out of the office. Sure enough, as soon as she arrived at the department, Xiao Xu couldn’t help but come over. “Ye Zhen, who was that man that day? Is He your boyfriend?”
“No.”
“Who are you lying to? wasn’t he the one who hugged you like a Princess?”
It was a princess hug. Let’s not talk about the man’s looks first. Just this one princess hug alone was enough to attract fans, okay?
Many celebrities were seen on television carrying a woman in their arms as if they were flying. However, after watching the interview, they realized that there were only a few who really had the strength to do so.
“It really wasn’t.”Ye Zhen didn’t intend to say anything more. To her..,
the most important thing at the moment was to find out the mole in the company. Everything else had to be put aside at this moment.
She wondered if the mole would be so anxious to make a move when he and Ning Hai were about to reconfirm the new plan.
“Ye Zhen, is that person really not your boyfriend?”Xiao Xu’s desire to gossip didn’t die down. “He looks so familiar to me. I think I’ve seen him somewhere before.”
“Is that so? Maybe it’s because he has a common face.”
“D * MN. Ye Zhen, don’t you feel guilty? With that face and a common face? How do you expect us to live?”
Ye Zhen was stunned for a moment. As if she had thought of something, she suddenly laughed.
That was true. Li Junsheng’s looks really could not be considered a common face. Thinking of his curved eyebrows and smiling face, ye Zhen felt her heart palpitate slightly.
Ye Zhen didn’t wait too long. On the third day, she spread the news that her plan with Ning Hai had been finalized and was about to be put on the agenda. She really did manage to find out who the mole was.
A member of the planning department had been in the company for more than two years. He had just started to get in touch with the core business of the company. She didn’t expect him to do such a thing.
Ye Zhen did not think that she was so kind that she could laugh off other people’s schemes. She immediately wanted to call the police and arrest the employee for stealing the company’s secrets.
Her methods were swift and fierce. The entire planning team saw her sharp side.
Just as she sent that person to prison, ye Nanshan came looking for her.
“Why did you make such a big fuss?”Ye Nanshan was angry when he saw his daughter. “Why didn’t you think about the company?”
Ye Zhen felt that this was a new concept. She raised her eyebrows. “Why didn’t I think about the company?”
Find out the mole so that they wouldn’t dare to betray the company again. Why was it that when it came to ye Nanshan, it was because she didn’t think about the company anymore?
“Is it honorable for such a thing to happen to the company? Why didn’t you think about it? Is this something that can be publicized?”
Ye Nanshan slapped the table as he spoke. “He made a mistake. Just tell him to get lost. Why did you hire the police? Are you trying to make people laugh at our company for having such a person and trouble?”
“Dad, I think your idea is the problem.”Ye Zhen did not give in. “If such a person appeared in the company, wouldn’t I be shaking the Tiger by announcing this to the public? It would also let those people know the consequences of betraying the company. This was one of the reasons. Two, it was precisely because this was done in a timely manner that not only could the company’s problems be minimized, but it could also let the people in the industry know the attitude of our company.”
“The attitude toward each of the original plans, the attitude toward each of the cooperating customers, how did it become that I let others laugh at US when it came to you?”
“You –”
Ye Nanshan was angered by her attitude, but ye Zhen suddenly smiled. “Dad, how can you say such an obvious fallacy? It looks like you’re really getting old.”
She leaned forward and placed her hands on the edge of ye Nanshan’s desk. “Dad, if you have the heart but are unable to support this company, you might as well let someone else do it.”
“You, you unfilial daughter.”Ye Nanshan stood up abruptly and pointed a finger at ye Zhen’s face. “What do you mean?”
“Nothing.”Ye Zhen gently waved his hand away. “I want to tell people that I have 20% of the company’s shares. “Father, if you can’t bear the responsibility of the company, I don’t mind sitting in the position of the chairman and taking on the responsibility of the company.”
“Good, good, good. You’re really my good daughter.”Ye Nanshan pointed at ye Zhen and nodded hatefully. “Let me tell you. I’m still very young. If you want to sit in this position now, don’t even think about it.”
It was true that he and ye Zhen’s mother had founded the company. However, he did not want to hand the company over to this girl, ye Zhen.
His company was to be left to Ye Jianhao. That was his son. That was the heir who could shoulder the heavy responsibility of the family.
Ye Zhen smiled faintly. “Is that so? That’s really a pity. But we can also try. How long can you sit in this position?”
“Unfilial daughter, unfilial daughter.”
Ye Nanshan cursed as he watched ye Zhen leave. When he sat down again, the expression on his face was filled with malevolence.
That damned Lu he. Even if he was dead, he still had to obstruct her. If she hadn’t given the company’s shares to a little girl like ye Zhen, where would ye Zhen have the courage to yell at him like that?
No, he had to think of a way to take back the company’s shares from that girl.
He also had to change the company’s surname to Ye. Everything could only be left for his son.
..
Ye Zhen did not know what ye Nanshan was thinking. After getting rid of that mole and making ye Nanshan almost vomit blood, she was in an extremely good mood.
So when the phone rang, her voice carried a hint of joy.
“Hello, I’m Ye Zhen.”
On the other end of the phone, Li Junsheng was stunned for a moment. Because of the joy on the other end of the phone, the corners of his lips curled up a little.
“Are you in a good mood today?”
“Uncle Li?”Ye Zhen took the phone and quickly went back to her office. She closed the door. She didn’t know why she had to do this. “Why are you here? Is there something you need me for?”
“Yes. I have a small matter that I need to trouble you with.”
Li junsheng used the word “Trouble”. Hearing his overly polite attitude, ye Zhen suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
“Tell me, what is it?”
“There is an opera tonight at the Qingcheng Grand Theater. One of my subordinates happens to be the person in charge of the theater, so he sent me two tickets. He wants to ask if you are free tonight to watch it with me?”
Go to the opera? Ye Zhen’s first reaction was, Li Junsheng actually liked to watch opera? She had thought that a person like him wouldn’t have any entertainment in his spare time.
“It’s the Camellia Girl from the Royal Theater of Paulie in England. This opera is very famous, and the Royal Theater of Paulie is well-arranged.”
“Okay, I’ll go.”
Ye Zhen hadn’t gone to an opera or a concert for a long time. It was a good opportunity for her to relax.
“Then I’ll pick you up after work. We can go over after dinner.”
“Okay.”
After hanging up the phone, ye Zhen was a little excited when she thought about going to the opera with Li Junsheng? Was this a date?
Feeling her face burning up, she patted her flushed cheeks.
Calm down, this is fake. Fake. You are not Li Junsheng’s real girlfriend.
..
Li Junsheng really came to pick up ye Zhen when he got off work. This time, Ye Ninghan was walking behind ye Zhen. So she happened to see ye Zhen getting into Li Junsheng’s car.
Even if Li Junsheng’s face only flashed by in the car, it was enough for her to see clearly who that face was.
Gritting her teeth, Ye Ninghan only felt hatred as if her gums were about to bleed.
On what basis?
It seemed as if all the good luck had gone to that woman, Ye Zhen?
The grandfather who was a professor, the uncle who doted on her very much. And the shares that her short-lived mother had left for her even if she had to die. And now, there was an additional Li Junsheng.
Thinking of Li Junsheng’s conditions, Ye Ninghan hated him even more.
Ye Zhen had hooked up with Li Junsheng, but what about her? Whenever she thought of Chen Liang pestering her, she got sick of it. She wished she could kill that man.
Take a deep breath, calm down, and then calm down.
If she couldn’t bear it, then she would mess up the big plan. She couldn’t be anxious, much less panic. She had just arrived, and it was still unknown who would win.
She had to think carefully about how to snatch Li Junsheng over. And how to make ye Zhen Lose Everything, nothing.
