Chapter 64 - 64: Choosing Jiang Yan
She looked at Li Ze. Her gaze was once again cold and indifferent.
“Our Jiang family has arrangements with your Li family. I don’t want to make things difficult for you.
“But coming to work in my company was Pei Xin’s choice.
“I don’t care what feelings you have for Pei Xin, but you should at least respect her decision.
“Can’t you at least find out whether I did hurt Pei Xin or not before coming here?
“Please leave my company now and don’t come back to disturb Pei Xin’s work in the future. I would very much appreciate it if you don’t harass my employees.”
Jiang Yuan wanted to chase him away.
Chen Sheng also noticed that something was wrong.
He stopped Li Ze and tried to persuade him. “President Li, we might have made a mistake. I think Miss Jiang Yan is treating Miss Pei Xin quite well.” Chen Sheng looked at Jiang Yan guiltily. “Miss Jiang Yan, President Li was acting on impulse. It must be because Zhang Ying had previously caused trouble for Miss Pei Xin. President Li was afraid that Miss Pei Xin would be hurt again.”
“Zhang Ying is Zhang Ying,” Jiang Yan said calmly. “She’s just a female celebrity. How can she compare to me? Tell him to open his eyes when he finds a lover in the future. Don’t let any Tom, Dick, or Harry serve him. No matter what, I’m going to marry him in the future. 1 don’t want my image to be affected because of him.”
Jiang Yan’s words carried a hint of humiliation, making Li Ze particularly embarrassed.
He stared at Jiang Yan gloomily. If it weren’t for the fact that the two families had an agreement, he wouldn’t have wanted to marry this woman at all.
Jiang Yan did not have such a messy love history.
Jiang Yan had only dated once when she was in university, and then she broke up with that person.
Later, Jiang Yan accepted the family’s arrangement and became his fiance.
During this period, Jiang Yan did not look for a new boyfriend.
Previously, Li Ze had also accepted the fact that he would marry Jiang Yan.
Although he liked to play around with women, the wife he wanted to marry had to be pure and elegant.
As for Jiang Yan, be it her appearance or her past, everything was what he looked for on paper.
Jiang Yan would make a very good wife. However, he did not like Jiang Yan. That was because Jiang Yan was too calm. Calm enough to see through all his lies.
He did not like the feeling of being naked.
Jiang Yan was too smart for him to manipulate.
Therefore, when he found out that Pei Xin was working for Jiang Yan’s company, Li Ze started to panic.
He was afraid that Jiang Yan would deal with Pei Xin in a terrible manner.
Jiang Yan was different from Zhang Ying. If Jiang Yan wanted to deal with someone,she would destroy every aspect of them.
He was also afraid that Pei Xin would find out what he had done in the past five years from Jiang Yan.
She would end up thinking that he was a promiscuous scumbag.
No matter what Li Ze was feeling, it all stopped when he was slapped by Pei Xin.
It was clear, between him and Jiang Yan, Pei Xin trusted Jiang Yan more.
Li Ze left in disappointment.
“President Li, are you alright?” Chen Sheng looked at Li Ze worriedly.
Li Ze looked at Chen Sheng in a daze. “Chen Sheng, why do you think I’ll be alright? Why would Pei Xin choose to stay with Jiang Yan instead of me? She clearly knows about our relationship. Isn’t she afraid that Jiang Yan will harm her? I can’t believe she actually hit me just now to protect Jiang Yan. I don’t understand.”
Chen Sheng looked at Li Ze and felt his heart ache.
In the business world, Li Ze had always been decisive. In order to deal with his enemies, Li Ze’s methods were dirty and ruthless.
Now, he looked like a helpless child.
Pei Xin was the only person who could make Li Ze feel this way.
Chen Sheng said, “Miss Jiang Yan is a person of noble morals. Miss Pei Xin is not a fool either. She will protect Miss Jiang Yan because she knows Miss Jiang Yan’s true feelings. 1 think we should be happy for Miss Pei Xin. When I found out that you’re not Ling Lin’s father, I knew there was a chance of her leaving. Since that’s the case, why don’t we let Miss Jiang Yan protect Miss Pei Xin?”
Li Ze did not say anything.
This was the first time he truly interacted with his fiance..
