Run Away from My Honey a Thousand Times - Chapter 175

Chapter 175 The President Is Too Headstrong
On the top floor of Lingtian International, a man stood in front of a French window. His icy blue eyes scanned the hurried crowd downstairs, as well as the rising sun.

Xiang Lei knocked on the door and entered. The morning meeting was about to start, and he came in to inform the man.

However, today, the president did not read the documents at his desk. Instead, he was in a rare mood to look at the scenery downstairs. This was the first time he had met such a President Ling in two years.

The faint sunlight sprinkled into his body. Even if the warm sun hit him, it still couldn’t change the cold aura on his body. There was also a sense of loneliness.

Xiang Lei was a smart and capable person, but this time he hesitated, not knowing if he should disturb him.

Finally, he looked at the clock on the wall and couldn’t help but whisper, “President, the meeting will start in five minutes.”

Ling Yue did not turn around. His gaze was still cold as before. He landed on the pedestrian and looked aimlessly.

He raised his eyebrows.

Why did he have this kind of leisure today … Perhaps, it was because that woman had returned.

As usual, President Ling listened coldly to the people from the project team taking turns to speak. The executives of Lingtian International were accustomed to their cold and formal presentations.

Xiang Lei had been sitting beside him recording. He didn’t know if he was overthinking it, but he always felt that the president was a little absent-minded today.

The meeting went very smoothly, mainly because Ling Yue wasn’t picky. Of course, the project plan reported above was also carefully prepared by this group of people.

“Xing Jie will be transferred to the deputy general manager of Lingtian Science and Technology Asia Pacific Region, and the current director of Lingtian Real Estate will be directly removed.”

The man sitting in the center suddenly spoke. The people sitting around him couldn’t help but be stunned. Ling Yue didn’t look at them and directly asked if there was anything important. Everyone couldn’t react, so they all shook their heads.

When they saw Ling Yue leave, they slowly came to their senses, “What exactly is going on?”

Ling Tian International had many industries under its banner, and Ling Tian Science and Technology and Ling Tian Real Estate were important pillar industries. This sudden transfer of personnel would inevitably have an impact on the entire body.

“Director and deputy general manager of the Asia-Pacific region, did the president tell you what exactly happened to these two important positions?” The people below did not leave and looked up at Xiang Lei.

Xiang Lei shook his head. He was also very surprised.

Seeing Xiang Lei shake his head, the group of people didn’t ask anymore embarrassedly. They just thought to themselves that no one dared to discuss this matter anymore.

They had basically understood Ling Yue’s methods and character.

President Ling, once he decides something, it is impossible to change it. Furthermore, he must have his reasons for doing so. Not to mention the fact that they dare not have any objections, even the members of the board of directors do not dare to ask.

No one in City A had the ability to shoulder the burden with Ling Yue.

Xiang Lei packed up the documents and returned to his office.

“I heard that the director of Lingtian Real Estate was directly removed?” Shen Jingxue strode to Xiang Lei’s table and asked him with a frown.

Xiang Lei raised his head and nodded without any hesitation when he saw her.

“Do you know the inside story?” Shen Jingxue asked.

Xiang Lei smiled faintly. “You know the president better than I do. Why would he tell me so many reasons? He has his own reasons for doing so. Furthermore,”

He paused and smiled helplessly, “The president has always been very … willful.”

Yes, Ling Yue is a very willful person. If he doesn’t like it, he will use all his strength to chase after him until the other party is dying and unable to resist.

From the looks of it, Ling Yue definitely did not look like such a boring person. In the past, he thought that he was overthinking things. Later, he slowly analyzed a lot of Lingtian business cases, and some of the funds were actually used for unnecessary investments.

To be frank, the president used money to bully other companies. Especially the one a year ago, the stock market was in turmoil. As the mastermind behind the scenes, the president of his family still sent the young master to school expressionlessly.

It was as if hitting a business opponent had become a way for the president to vent his anger.

“Secretary Shen, you can talk to the CEO in detail. I don’t think the CEO is as cold as he looks. You are the only woman around him these years. I think the CEO must love you very much, but he is not good at expressing himself.”

Xiang Lei smiled sincerely at her. He could tell that Shen Jingxue was not confident.

After Shen Jingxue heard his words, her expression became somewhat pale. She half-lowered her head to conceal the embarrassment on her face and forced a smile. “You’re busy. I’ll make him a cup of coffee.”

Shen Jingxue’s footsteps were somewhat empty. She was very guilty, but at the same time, she was also very unwilling.

The man said last night that he would cancel the engagement and offer Fu Hai’s plot of land as an apology.

Xiang Lei was right. Ling Yue was used to doing whatever he wanted, and it was only a matter of time before he agreed or refused.

As for the so-called woman who stayed by his side, she had never entered his heart at all.

The door was knocked lightly. Shen Jingxue carried her usual gentle smile and walked in carefully, placing the coffee lightly on his desk as usual.

“In the afternoon, I want to pick them up after school. After that, I’ll take them to Lefang Garden for a walk. I heard that there are a lot of new plants there. It’s better for children to see more green plants.” She spoke with the tenderness of the past.

Ling Yue still held a pen in his hand and signed the document. He didn’t even look up at her.

Shen Jingxue was not anxious. She was willing to wait. She had been waiting for three years, and she had always been very confident.

“No need, I will go pick them up.”

His deep voice rang out, and his hand was still rustling familiarly on the paper.

Just as he finished speaking, Shen Jingxue froze. He wanted to personally pick up the child? Why? He was obviously busy this afternoon, wasn’t he?

The pen was gently put down, and the reviewed documents were put aside by him.

Ling Yue slowly raised his head. In that instant, Shen Jingxue looked into his azure eyes. She was still indifferent and heartless, as if it was always calm and steady like the deep sea.

Such a man would undoubtedly attract women and moths to the fire.

“Even if the engagement is delayed, it won’t change anything.” He suddenly spoke.

Shen Jingxue only felt a burst of pain in her chest. Why did you say such heartless words? Were you not willing to leave even a tiny bit of leisure to me?

“Yue, why? Why can’t you fall in love with me?”

The depths of her eyes were bitter. She did not understand why, with her background, her excellence, and her sincerity, she was unable to move him.

The man frowned. He didn’t like to be questioned.

Of course, Shen Jingxue knew his displeasure. Her gaze became somewhat absent-minded and she said inexplicably, “I can change the kind of woman you like for you. I really am willing.”

She had never thought that she would let go of her arrogance and speak to a man like this. Miss Shen Qi, who had been flattered by men since childhood, was actually so lowly that even she herself was shocked.

Ling Yue raised his eyes and swept her a glance. After a long time, he said indifferently, “I don’t know.”

Shen Jingxue’s heart trembled. She thought that he wouldn’t tell her, but she didn’t expect him to answer like this.

Her eyes glittered again, “Then before you’re certain, please don’t reject me, okay?”

Last night, Ling Yue had already decided to cancel the engagement. Old Master Shen was very angry, but Ling Yue used Fu Hai’s land to step down the stairs for them. No matter how angry the old man was, there was nothing he could do. Everyone knew that he was lucky to be willing to give you face.

Ling Yue’s temper was probably the same as Old Master Ling’s back then.

But unexpectedly, Shen Jingxue put down her rich and wealthy airs, cried like a child, knelt on the ground, hugged his legs, and refused to cancel the engagement.

Perhaps Ling Yue was still a bit human. In the end, he agreed to announce to the media that he was delaying the engagement because of work. In fact, he did not say when the next engagement would take place. Therefore, everyone knew that this was simply a long way off.

Finally, Ling Yue looked at her strangely and said, “Go out and work.”

When Shen Jingxue closed the door, her heart was still trembling. She kept telling herself that at least, he didn’t directly reject her.

For a cold man like him, it was only because he didn’t understand emotions that he did so. If he didn’t reject him, then he must still have thoughts towards her.

She secretly encouraged herself, but another voice completely pulled her back to the bottom of the darkness.

“Miss Shen is so outstanding. There are still many men in the circle. Why are you so persistent?”

Shen Jingxue was a little unhappy. She turned around and saw that it was Zuo Shaohuai.

Zuo Shaohuai was still laughing sinisterly, but today, he looked even more treacherous, as if he was waiting to watch a good show.

“I love him. I won’t give up so easily.” Shen Jingxue proudly raised her chin to show her determination.

To be honest, Zuo Shaohuai really felt that Shen Jingxue and Ling Yue were quite suitable together. Unfortunately …

“Miss Shen, he has someone in his heart. You can’t move in.”

He kindly warned her, smiled, and no longer chatted with her. He reached out and directly pushed the door open.

Shen Jingxue excitedly grabbed his hand. She almost hysterically shouted, “Impossible!”

Shen Jingxue’s voice attracted the attention of others.

Everyone already knew this morning that Secretary Shen and President Ling had delayed their engagement, but no one dared to give her any face. She was the seventh young miss of Shens, and no one could guess Ling Yue’s thoughts. At this time, everyone with brains knew that they shouldn’t bring up this matter.

However, everyone still couldn’t restrain their curiosity. They wanted to eavesdrop on their conversation. Young Master Zuo was their president’s best brother. Young Master Zuo definitely knew the inside story.

Zuo Shaohuai turned around and glanced at the crowd behind him. Everyone withdrew their gazes in embarrassment.

Zuo Shaohuai was not Ling Yue. He was not so ruthless and cold in his dealings. He lowered his head to look at his hand that was being pulled by Shen Jingxue and shook his head at her.

“Miss Shen, you must think that you know Ling Yue very well.” When his gaze met hers, Shen Jingxue finally reacted. She was too excited and let go of her hand embarrassedly.

She replied confidently, “I know all his likes and dislikes.”

“Then do you know what kind of woman Ling Yue likes?” Zuo Shaohuai still smiled enchantingly.

Shen Jingxue was stunned.

Zuo Shaohuai laughed even more sinisterly. As he recalled a certain woman, he said, “Barbaric and tyrannical. Hmm, there is also a bit of violence.”

Just as he said the last sentence, Shen Jingxue was completely stunned.

“Don’t waste your time, because she’s back …”
