Chapter 49
In the middle of the banquet, Yue Zhi held Qing Li and came to the front of the hall, in front of a small platform built by countless freshly cut white roses that were flown in, he didn’t need to say anything to draw attention to himself, because everyone’s eyes were already on him.
“Thank you for giving me the honor of coming here tonight.” His opening remarks were simple, and polite to the point, “I invited you all here tonight, mainly to introduce you to my fiancée, Qingli.”
He put a hand on Qingli’s shoulder, “She will be the boss’s wife of my Yue’s in the future, seeing her is the same as seeing me, she is young and thin-skinned, I hope that in the future, you will take care of her.”
Yue Zhi knows that Qing Li is not good at facing this kind of occasion, also will not say anything, so he alone is enough, but the doting expression and small action, already enough to show that he attaches importance to Qing Li, not to mention his words.
His words are no less than a boulder thrown into the mirror lake, stirring up a thousand waves, even married couples, such as Shen Jun and Qi Yuyu, do not dare to say that see the lady equal to see the boss, in the pre-marriage there are countless agreements to ensure that even if the two sides divorced, in addition to the woman get the money can not be divided into the rights of the group and the shares.
Yue Zhi said this kind of words, whether it is moved by the true feelings or the crown, are enough to let the man sigh he was beauty dazed, women in the green pear envy and jealousy on the basis of adding some hate.
After that, there are people who come to talk and observe the two of them in the name of congratulations and congratulations, sincerely or falsely, Yue Zhi doesn’t care, just listen to the happy on the line.
In the middle of the green pear to washroom, out in the outer room to see a familiar face, the chairman of the board of directors of the cloud rise group of wife, legend and Yue Zhi have old love of the woman, Qi Yuyu.
The first time they met, Qi Yuyu looked at her with eyes full of loathing, and now it is even more undisguised hatred.
Qing Li lightly swept a glance at her, did not make any conversation, and was about to leave after washing her hands on her own.
“Stop.” Qi Yuyu called out to her from behind.
Qing Li turned back and looked at her without saying anything, that indifferent look was inexplicably very much like Yue Zhi when she was in a bad mood, Qi Yu Yu looked even more heartbroken.
“That pair of earrings of yours, it was given to you by Yue Zhi, right?”
“Yes.” Qing Li said, “So what, what does it have to do with you?” Her tone was flat and devoid of any emotions, as she had already prepared herself mentally for all sorts of things regarding Yue Zhi’s love history.
Qi Yuyu however, as if she was being demonstrated, she was so angry that she was shaking, her face reddened, “You, what do you have to be so proud of! What do you know, you don’t know anything about my past with Yue Zhi, I was Yue Zhi’s first love, I gave everything for him, he will always have me in his heart, there is no way he can ever forget me!”
“So?” Qing Li looked at her, “Mister is already thirty-three years old, he has rich life experiences, it’s only normal that he has a history of relationships, no matter how he was in the past, right now you’re the chairman’s wife of Yun Sheng Group, and me, I’m the one who’s the fiancée of Mister, that’s the reality.”
After saying that she didn’t also don’t care what Qi Yuyu’s reaction was, she turned around and left.
As a result, she just walked out of the bathroom not far, and was blocked by a few female guests, she could feel the disdain and provocation in the other party’s eyes, but was too lazy to deal with it, “Something wrong?”
“Qing, Ms. Cherry? May I ask which family’s daughter you are, how come I’ve never heard of you before.” The one in the lead purposely called Qing Li’s name in a strange accent, and then asked like this.
“Which family is not, I’m an orphan who grew up in a garbage dump and was picked up by mister.” Aonashi said.
“Huh?” A few women pretended to be surprised, “So miserable?”
“Well, miserable, never went to school and read, can’t play a musical instrument, can’t dance, don’t know anything about art or business, is there anything else you guys want to ask?” She asked calmly.
“Then what makes you like this to be with Mr. Yue, you don’t help his career in any way.” A female guest in a purple gown couldn’t help but lower her voice and drink.
“Well ……,” Qing Li frowned in thought, “Maybe because I can help him kill people.”
She looked at a few small greenhouse white flowers in front of her and smiled, “The kind of killing where you don’t see blood or a body.”
A few women were like avoiding the plague, instantly scattering like birds and beasts.
Qing Li grunted softly breathlessly and returned to Yue Zhi’s side, from beginning to end Qing Li did not say anything, but after the banquet was over still felt a little tired, when the car was traveling back, she leaned on Yue Zhi’s shoulder and sighed in a rare way.
“What’s wrong?” Yue Zhi squeezed the back of her neck.
“Mister is really great, dealing with so many people every day, I just feel tired of my heart all night today.” Qing Li said.
“It’s okay, they are all dirty things dirty people, you don’t need to have any more contact with them in the future.” Yue Zhi said, “Just stay by my side properly.”
Qing Li nodded, she was very self-aware and knew that there was no way she could be helpful to Yue Zhi in her career, so all she could do was to listen to Yue Zhi, not to cause him any trouble, so that he could have an arm that he could rest in peace, and give him thorough protection.
But Qi Yuyu’s face inexplicably appeared in her mind, and she thought of Shen Jun’s deliberately provocative words, and Qi Yuyu’s indignant and resigned expression at that time.
“How can Mr. and Qi Yuyu …… be completely unconcerned, Qing Li silently thought, she did not have any cynical thoughts, she was just simply curious about what kind of a relationship Yue Zhi had once had.
Yue Zhi laughed softly, propped up his head and looked at her, in the dimly lit carriage, it looked very gentle, “I thought you would hold back until when to ask me.”
“Oh.” Qingli responded a little dumbfounded, “Then are you willing to tell me?”
“Of course, there’s nothing to hide.” Yue Zhi thought for a moment, “As we all know, Qi Yuyu is a schoolmate who is two years older than me, we were in the same school from the National University of Singapore until we went to London to study for postgraduate studies, she was my first love, the only woman I have ever loved for so many years, however, later on, my company suffered from the targeting of the Yunsheng Group, and a crisis arose, so she switched to the embrace of Shen Jun, and became a young granny of the Yunsheng Group, and Shen Jun also stood out amongst the several heirs with the help of the Qi family and inherited the Yunsheng Group.”
“What about the ones that aren’t well known?” Qing Li listened to his tone, even with some immodest flirting, and knew that things were far from simple.
“She and I have actually known each other for many years, it wouldn’t be wrong to say that we grew up together, but I have never had male or female feelings for her, otherwise I wouldn’t have watched her marry someone else without doing anything about it.” Yue Zhi said reaching over Qing Li’s waist, the force was so big that it was like he wanted to embed Qing Li into his body, his dark eyes stared at Qing Li, “Like you, I will never let go, if you want to leave me in the future, I will definitely do whatever it takes to keep you, I won’t look at you leaving.”
Qing Li looked at him, suddenly experiencing an unprecedented sense of suffocation, but she didn’t hate this feeling, instead, she gained a strange sense of security from it, no matter what, being needed by someone, especially being needed by Yue Zhi, was something she couldn’t wait for.
“I won’t leave, even if someone held a knife to my neck and told me to leave sir, I would choose to die rather than leave.” Aonashi said.
“That’s good.” Yue Zhi kissed Qing Li’s lips, his kiss and his usual gentle completely different, with violent predatory, not to Qing Li kissed to suffocation, lips red and swollen do not stop, until the end of the day as if rewarding the sweetness in general, gently sucking a few times, in order to show appeasement.
Qing Li gasped, and thought of Qi Yu Yu’s sentence “I gave everything for him”, “Could it be that Qi Yu Yu and Shen Jun made a deal, she married over, Yun Sheng will let Yue Clan go, that’s why she said to me, she gave everything for you.”
“She said that to you?” Yue Zhi snorted, “Yue Clan’s rise from the dead was the result of my efforts to save the day, she ran off to marry Shen Jun in her own words, she was also self-moved thinking that she had given everything for me, asking me to emotionally reciprocate, to give her the love that she wanted, how could that be possible, if I had any feelings for her I would have already had them long ago, and wouldn’t have waited until now. Everyone thinks that I have old feelings for Qi Yu Yu, but in fact she is just an ordinary old acquaintance to me, no different from Lin Cai Yue.”
Qing Li settled down, even if she didn’t understand before, now she slowly understood, love is sometimes like this, she is also the same as Qi Yu Yu, longing for Yue Zhi’s emotional response, longing for a unique love, only she is lucky, because she got it.
Thinking of Qi Yuyu, her heart inexplicably some acid, Qi Yuyu know it, know their own pay is futile, know that they have never entered the heart of Yue Zhi?
She looked at the side of Yue Zhi’s face, always feel that he still have unfinished words, this matter is not so simple, Qi Yuyu’s words, should not be just a background so simple a few words only.
Yue Zhi didn’t continue, obviously he didn’t want her to know, so she shouldn’t ask anymore.
But there were some things that she had to know, “Cui De told me that the person who is going to deal with me you know, and has targeted you several times before, who is the other party?”
Yue Zhi first froze, then sighed again, pulling up her hand and slurping on the engagement ring, “How can we say today is the day of our engagement, shouldn’t we do something intimate to push our relationship further, how come all we talk about are things that are not so happy ah.”
Qing Li froze, her tone was flustered, “I’m sorry, I didn’t know about this, I just asked when I thought of it, I didn’t want to make you unhappy, what should I do now?” She reached out and wrapped her arms around Yue Zhi’s neck, she moved up and kissed Yue Zhi’s cheek, “Sir, is this okay?”
Yue Zhi “haha” laughed twice, “Ah Li is so cute, it’s okay, I’ll tell you if you want to know.”
“That man, is my father, but he boasts of not marrying and giving everything for the people and the party throughout his life, so he didn’t marry my mother and couldn’t recognize my existence.”
“He didn’t care for me in any way except to provide monetary support, and after my mother’s death, he dumped me in South Africa, when I would have died if it hadn’t been for Chansey and West Pole.”
“How old?”
“Fourteen.” Yue Zhi smiled and touched her head, “Don’t show this kind of expression, compared to Ah Li, I’m already considered very lucky, thanks to those years in South Africa, I was able to get in touch with the world of mercenaries, expanding other industries with Yue’s security as a base, before I could have what I have today, and thanks to those years, I was able to get systematic military training, have I ever told you that my force value is on par with the West Pole, it’s just easy not to make a move.”
“Really?” Qing Li was surprised, how could she not connect Yue Zhi, who looked like an elegant scholar, with Xiji.
“You’re frustrating me with this skepticism, I’ll go to the base this weekend to help you train, so you can see the strength of your future husband.” Yue Zhi said.
Qing Li stiffly responded, “Uh-huh.”
“What’s wrong?” Yue Zhi came to her ear, “Hearing the words Future Husband shy?”
The two fooled around and kissed again.
Yue Zhi introduced his past in a few sentences as if he was hiding Qi Yuyu’s affairs, covering up the details of those South Africans who had stepped on corpses and survived in the flesh and blood by any means necessary, as if he was talking about another experience he had once had when he went out on a trip.
“Wait a minute.” Qing Li gasped and grabbed Yue Zhi’s hand, “You still haven’t said why your father wants to deal with you.”
Yue Zhi looked up fondly from the nape of her neck and downplayed, “It’s just that he wants to control me and make me do those dirty hands for him, and I didn’t listen properly.”
He wrapped Qing Li in his arms, “Sooner or later, one day, I will completely break away from his control, and drop him to the altar, so that he will no longer have the means to tell me what to do, Ah Li, you must be with me, waiting for that day to come.”
That feeling that Yue Zhi didn’t tell her the whole story came back, perhaps it was because she had more time to observe Yue Zhi brightly after the two of them got together, and that made her sharper, hence this feeling.
But it didn’t matter, she wouldn’t force herself if he didn’t say anything.
“Good.”
