Falling in Love with My Contracted Husband - Chapter 313

Chapter 313 Lost Everything

In the past, An Zixi always liked to describe Lin Qiyuan as a beautiful youth who came out of a comic book. Right now, he seemed to be missing such an apt description in terms of a beautiful teenager.

The black hair was cut shorter, and the bangs covering his eyebrows were gone. This way, his facial features were even more exquisite and handsome. There was more of a mature man’s charm.

An Zixi had also changed. His foolish innocence still faded away. He was like a piece of fine rose jade that had been polished over the years. It was so beautiful that it was completely natural.

“Um … do you want to stay for dinner tonight? I’ll cook some dishes that you like.” She lowered her head and rubbed her palms. The atmosphere was so awkward that she really couldn’t think of anything to ask.

“Let me help you.” Lin Qiyuan rolled up her sweater sleeves, revealing her strong and clean arms. An Zixi squatted down and opened the refrigerator. Before the vegetables and fish were unsealed, she picked them up and handed them to Lin Qiyuan. The two of them entered the kitchen together.

It was almost dark outside the window, and the snow was getting heavier and heavier, and the window was covered with a mist of water. Under the bright orange light, An Zixi wore a white turtleneck sweater and took out the washed vegetables and placed them on the table. Lin Qiyuan’s tall figure stood under the chandelier, his head blurred as he chatted with her while cutting vegetables.

“Long time, I’ve fantasized about this scene more than once. Cooking with my beloved wife, there’s only us in the world.” An Zixi listened carefully as he smiled. He only whispered’mm ‘.

This kind of scene was really beautiful. A man and a woman standing side by side were intimately close to each other, even breathing in and out at the same frequency.

An Zixi washed all the dishes and put them in a basin. He turned off the tap and wiped his hands with a towel. Her face was calm from beginning to end, her clear black eyes dimmed a little. She could only listen to Lin Qiyuan’s beautiful words, but she couldn’t give him any more.

Dinner was also as plain as Chinese food. The two of them picked up the dishes in front of them. Lin Qiyuan would occasionally put some dishes into her bowl. An Zixi lowered her head and sent the dishes to her mouth with her chopsticks.

After dinner, An Zixi escorted Lin Qiyuan to the door. She remembered that his scarf had fallen, so she hurriedly ran back and wrapped it around him.

The handsome man stood in the light and smiled. “There’s no need to send me off. Ji Ran is still waiting for you. Go back. It’s cold outside.”

“Then be careful on your way.” An Zixi leaned against the door and said. Her white turtleneck was like jade. Lin Qiyuan walked forward and pinched her nose. “Let’s go. Call me if you need anything. I’m going to stay in Sydney for a few days.”

“Yes.” An Zixi watched his back walk farther and farther, and closed the door in a low mood.

Early in the morning, 8:00 a.m. in Xinjing City.

At this morning’s meeting of the Lee Corporation, the economic downturn has been severe for the past month. Several board members who hold about 10% of the Group’s shares have already agreed a few days ago to elect a more capable person who is more suited to take over the company as chairman of the Group.

Everyone in the office was waiting for Miss Li. When Li Qing came in, the seat the secretary arranged for her was the first seat on the right.

Instead of following the secretary’s instructions, she sat down at the head seat and raised her chin to ask arrogantly, “Are you saying that I’m not worthy of this seat?”

“No, Manager Li, I mean …”

“Then stop talking nonsense and obediently watch from the side.” Li Qing interrupted her coldly and asked her assistant to send the documents she had produced overnight to every director. The old foxes of the board of directors were not thinking about this document at all. They lowered their heads to look at their watches. At the appointed time, the big shot should also be here, right?

The door of the office was pushed open. Li Qing raised her head and looked at it with a heavy gaze. A few men in black suits and sunglasses walked in from outside. Behind them was a person who caused everyone present to gasp.

Tang Jin Chen strode over with a cold expression. His firm profile and pitch-black eyes made Li Qing’s heart skip a beat. His aura was so strong that no one dared to get too close. The black-clothed man next to him stood open one word at a time, and the office door was closed again.

He stopped in front of Li Qing and said in a low voice, “You’re sitting in my seat. Please step aside.”

Li Qing’s eyes were absent-minded as she stood up from her seat in a trance and moved over. Tang Jin Chen sat in the main seat. Li Qing could only sit in the seat arranged by her secretary.

Jason opened his laptop and connected to the projection screen. Tang Jin-chen briefly explained the purpose of his visit to Lee Corporation. Recently, news of Tang Corporation’s intention to buy Lee Corporation had long been spread in the financial circles of Xinjing. Everyone held a wait-and-see attitude towards the news.

Lee Corporation and Tang Corporation have been partners for many years, and the recent turmoil in Lee Corporation has left others scared to guess whether the Tang Corporation Group is behind it.

Li Qing held the merger and acquisition document in her hand. Her face, which was dressed in stunning makeup, gradually turned pale. Why, why did he have to do this? Did he have to force her into a corner?

The price offered by Tang Jin Chen was very attractive, one hundred million for Lee Corporation. In other words, all the board members who held shares in the company would be rewarded accordingly.

This was quite tempting for a company that was about to go bankrupt!

Many members of the board of directors agreed. When it was Li Qing’s turn, she was silent for a long time. Tang Jin Chen gently tapped on the desk and smiled handsomely, “Manager Li, tell me your opinion.”

So far, what else could she say? However, there was a question she had to ask.

“Jin Chen, do we have to go this far?” Even if you don’t love me, do you still have to leave me no way out?

Everyone present lowered their heads in silence. Tang Jin Chen’s handsome face was the same as before, which made Li Qing’s heart beat endlessly. He smiled coldly and asked, “What do you think?”

“I, I don’t know.” Li Qing said guiltily in a low voice. She admitted that she had wronged An Zixi. She was willing to try her best to repay him. Could she leave Lee Corporation behind? This was the only thing she had left.

Tang Jin Chen did not have the interest to talk to her about these things. He asked Jason to give her the contract and sign it if there was no problem.

It was impossible for Li Qing to hand over Lee Corporation so easily. She threw the document on the table in front of Tang Jin Chen and said sternly, “I don’t agree!”

The old foxes on the board of directors were frightened and their backs shook. They all turned to look at Tang Jin Chen. Fortunately, President Tang still had a calm expression on his face. Otherwise, how would he end up?

Tang Jin Chen looked at her with a smile but not a smile. Li Qing’s expression was unclear. Time paused for a few seconds. Tang Jin Chen got up from his chair and buttoned up his suit. He said to the directors, “Since Manager Li hasn’t thought about it, I’ll give her another day to think about it. Goodbye.”

He turned around and walked outside. Jason and a row of black-clothed men followed him. The members of the board of directors sitting below looked at each other. Where did this come from?

Li Qing’s fingernails were deeply embedded in the flesh of her palm. Her heart was so painful that tears almost fell from her eyes. This was the first time she had tasted the taste of failure. Compared to this, the pain in her hand was really insignificant.

Not only did she lose to An Zixi emotionally, she also lost her career in a complete mess.

Outside the office, Tang Jin Chen and his assistant Jason took the elevator downstairs. The purchase of Lee Corporation was hidden from Chairman Tang. If the old man found out, would he be enraged to the point of bringing disaster to the fish in the pond?

As a fish in the pond, Jason followed the principle of thinking for Tang Jin Chen. He said very seriously, “Manager Tang, should I report the acquisition of Lee Corporation to the chairman of the board of directors?”

Tang Jin Chen glanced at him coldly. Jason lowered his head in fright and retreated to the side tactfully, not daring to say another word.

Tang Yuxin accompanied Fu Qingyan to the singing competition in Xinjing today.

After Qing Yan finished singing the last line, the zither music gradually stopped. Tang Yu Xin walked to the stage and bowed with Fu Qing Yan. The applause continued for a long time, and the audience could not help but stand up and applaud Fu Qingyan!

Victory or defeat was decided. Chen Yi, who was on the back stage, knew the result long ago. That kind of singing was not comparable to singing skills. Even if she had excellent singing skills, wouldn’t she still lose?

Behind him, a handsome man slowly approached. His voice was so low that it was charming, “Didn’t I tell you that this kind of competition was meaningless?”

Chen Yiyi’s face did not show the slightest bit of loneliness from losing the match, and her lips curled into a charming smile. “Who said I was here to compete? It’s much more interesting to watch the show than to compete.”

“Watch a play?” Han Yeming followed her gaze. Tang Yuxin, who was on the stage, turned to him and smiled sweetly.

That smile clearly knew that it wasn’t because of him, but it was still stubbornly staring at him from afar. A terrifying and fatal attraction was even more addictive than taking drugs.

“Let’s go.” Han Yeming turned around and walked back. Chen Yiyi reacted and chased after him, “There’s no need to wait any longer?”

“Waiting for who? Do you know anyone?” Han Yeming said coldly.

Chen Yiyi smiled and said, “I don’t know anyone, but can you accompany me to the dressing room to get something? I left my clothes there.”

Han Yeming asked Chen Yiyi to take him there. After taking a few steps, he turned around and continued walking. These movements did not escape Chen Yi’s eyes, and she curled her lips silently.

Awards were still being presented on the stage. Fu Qingyan was surrounded by a group of reporters holding a heavy trophy. She raised her head to look for Tang Yuxin and didn’t call her when she picked up the phone and walked towards the back of the stage.

“Miss Ye, I heard that you are a student of C University. Now that you have won the first prize in the city, will you participate in the national singing competition in the future?” The female reporter smiled and asked Fu Qingyan.

This is the first time Fu Qingyan has accepted a reporter’s question. He replied nervously, “I have no idea for the time being. This singer competition is just a whim. I still hope that I can smoothly get into graduate school.”

“Miss Ye, I just played the accompaniment for you. It was the eldest young miss of the Tong Enterprise. What is your relationship with her?”

“Good friend, thank you. I still have things to do in a while. Let’s go first.” Hearing these reporters’ questions, Fu Qingyan became more and more biased, and he was somewhat impatient as he prepared to go back to look for Tang Yuxin.

From the stage, Fu Qingyan happily saw Tang Yuxin standing in the corridor of the dressing room with her back to her. She chased after her and wanted to pat her shoulder. The man behind her slashed his palm on his neck. Fu Qingyan’s eyes darkened and he fell backwards …

In the dressing room, Chen Yiyi took the coat hanging on the clothes rack. Turning around, she saw Han Yeming’s uneasy expression. She smiled and asked, “Do you want to say hello to that person?”

Han Yeming lit a cigarette and leaned against the door, his face handsome and demonic, “Take your clothes and leave.”

“Oh, whatever.” Chen Yiyi put on her coat and left the dressing room with Han Yeming.

The gray sky was gloomy, and a cold wind blew. Han Yeming’s black coat collar rose high and he walked towards Chen Yi’s parking place.

Chen Yiyi looked up at the sky and smiled, “It’s going to snow soon.”

Han Yeming opened the car door and sat in the car. Chen Yiyi sat behind him. Just as the driver was about to drive, Han Yeming received a text message on his phone. He clicked on it and looked at it with a grim expression.

“What’s wrong? Why aren’t you driving?” Chen Yiyi impatiently knocked on the car window. She wanted to go home quickly and take a hot bath and have a cup of coffee to sleep.

Han Yeming put his phone back in his pocket and opened the door to get out of the car. He didn’t even have an explanation. Chen Yiyi rolled down the window and shouted, “Where are you going?”

Han Yeming strode back as if he hadn’t heard anything.

The driver asked Chen Yi Yi for instructions. Chen Yi Yi closed the window and waved to the driver to drive.

“Young miss, aren’t you waiting for Young Master Mu?”

“Didn’t I let you drive? Drive!” Chen Yiyi frowned unhappily. The driver was afraid of making the young miss unhappy, so he started the car and drove towards Mu Mansion.

When Tang Yuxin picked up the phone and rushed to a dressing room, she was tied to a stone pillar by two men in black suits, and the door to the dressing room was closed. Tang Yuxin’s mouth was stuffed with cloth and she could not make a sound. Her tied hands were constantly struggling.

The unconscious Fu Qingyan was sent downstairs. The old man saw a black car with a girl getting off the car and pushing her onto the ground. Then, the black car flew away.
