The Queen of Romance: A Summer of Sweet Classics

Chapter 353

But if An Mingchen is ignored, Li Nian's life for the past week can be regarded as very leisurely.This afternoon, I was originally scheduled to go shopping with Ada. Tomorrow, I would sleep, do yoga, and tidy up the cloakroom. The day after tomorrow, I would join my friends before their wedding.

Ada is Li Nian's manager.Married with a four-year-old daughter, Lily. Ada has a very gentle appearance, but her communication skills are very good.Li Nian hit it off with her back then, and the relationship has lasted for more than a year as a companion and friend.The people who know that Li Nian is married can be counted on one hand, and Ada is among them.

When Ada arrived at the mall, Li Nian had already been alone in the dessert shop on the top floor for a long time.When she was bored, she especially liked to fantasize about her life after divorcing An Mingchen.In fact, they are no different from strangers in their current appearance.But as long as the marriage certificate is still valid, Li Nian will always feel a ghost haunting his head.

It has become normal for An Mingchen to play cards not according to common sense. He acts according to his whim and provokes scandals everywhere, but he refuses to allow her to divorce her.If he wanted to use public opinion to humiliate her, but he concealed the fact that they were married as well as agreed.

Li Nian still remembered An Mingchen's strangely indifferent reaction when he proposed divorce for the first time.He seemed to have expected it, so he was stingy with giving an expression. He just moved his lips and said four words, which was impossible.

Later, she resolutely moved out of their wedding room.In the past, An Mingchen always confined her range of activities, but that time he didn't stop her.

Later, his appearance rate in the entertainment section was almost as high as hers.The media reported that his girlfriends were one after another, and many of them were related to celebrities. They were beautiful and colorful, and there was no fixed standard.

Both are tacitly ignoring each other.Li Nian's philosophy to him was that he would choose one of the single-plank bridge and Yangguan road first, and let her take the rest.

What happened last night left a little shadow on Li Nian, so today he has been in high spirits.The two watched a movie together in the afternoon, and when Ada commented on the actors' acting skills, she fell asleep in the seat.

When she woke up, Ada was approaching her face, studying her curiously: "Why did you go last night, I can even see your dark circles."

"……"refuse to answer.

Ada thought for a while, and said three words uncertainly: "An, Ming, Chen?"

"..." Li Nian put the magazine in his hand on his face, looked up as if he didn't hear it.

"So it really is." Ada laughed before saying anything, and said in a low voice, "Why did your shady husband provoke you?"

Li Nian's voice came out muffled: "Don't mention him."

"But I'm very interested now, so I want to talk about him." Ada approached her ear with a smile, and whispered, "Forcing and looting, sadomasochism. Such a good subject, if I report it to the company, I'm sure it will be Gossip that can't stop for a week."

Li Nian pretended not to hear.

"Why don't you think An Mingchen is willing to divorce? No matter how I look at it, I think his behavior is very weird, which is especially in line with the performance of wanting to talk after breaking up with love and giving birth to hatred because of love. If he is tired of you, he must be eager to get a divorce. If He takes pleasure in teasing you, so he won't tolerate you like this. Your attitude towards him is so bad that it can't be worse, and he doesn't care much. Why don't you torture yourself a little more. "

Li Nian was expressionless: "This question is easy to answer. He has bad views, sinister, unpredictable, split personality, and psychopathy. He is just full and has nothing to do. Is your tone trying to make peace with us? But I just hate it." He, I just don't like him, no matter how you help him cover up, I don't want to have anything to do with him."

"I don't mean anything else, I just think I can't bear the insomnia you lose sleep over the divorce every day. And I always think you two are so good together, the beauty of the man and the woman." Ada saw Li Nian's complexion getting brighter. He became less hesitant, sighed and raised his hand, "Okay, let's not mention him, let's watch a movie."

Li Nian suddenly remembered that An Mingchen seemed to have said this before.After half a year of their marriage, after Li Nian had made up his mind to get a divorce, An Mingchen seemed to be really angry when she provoked him. He forced her against the wall of the living room. He even threw the vase to the ground.Li Nian's back was pressed against the cold wall, and she was wary of him for a while, but he just suppressed her, narrowed his eyes, pursed his lips and did not speak.

On one side of them is a spacious floor-to-ceiling window. At dusk, Wanjia lights, An Mingchen tilted his head slightly, watching the ambiguous posture between them through the reflection of the glass, her clenched hands, tight lines, and She was only as tall as his earlobe.He looked at her for a long time, and finally wrapped his arms around her waist, pinched her chin to force her to look over, his voice whispered in her ears, so soft that it made people feel uneasy: "Li Nian, actually you and I It's a good match."

Li Nian never felt that there was any compatibility between her and An Mingchen.Her biggest dream is to have nothing to do with An Mingchen for the rest of her life, and her biggest nightmare is that An Mingchen appears in front of her again.

Li Nian has made countless assumptions, hoping to have a chance to return to the original point more than two years ago.

At that time, there was no word An Mingchen in her life trajectory.She graduated from bachelor's degree step by step. She has an ambiguous opposite-sex friend Lu Yuan who grew up with her three years older than her. She has her own plan and life.The past 20 years have been uneventful, and the occasional turbulence always subsides quickly. She even claims that she is calm and rational. Even when her parents die, she can bury her sadness and nostalgia deeply in her heart. There is no wave on the surface, and she can be objective And take care of whatever happens to you.

In the summer two and a half years ago, An Mingchen parachuted in front of her without warning.

At that time, the Li family was in the biggest business crisis in history, and the faces of the men in charge of the family were all gloomy.There is no one at home, and they have been running around between the bank and the company.The women are also very worried, because it is the time for the release of new summer products, but they dare not mention the big shopping anymore.

The tradition of the Li family has always been that women are used in marriages, and men take on major responsibilities.During that month, almost all married and unmarried women were urgently arranged to go on blind dates, even her 30-year-old eldest cousin who had just divorced.

Li Nian felt it was ridiculous and sad, but she herself was not spared.Because of Lu Yuan's physical condition, their affairs have been suppressed and opposed by their elders.And at that time Li Nian had just had a big fight with Lu Yuan, so he simply followed the advice of his family and went on a blind date.

The first person she saw was An Mingchen.

If women other than Li Nian were asked to list their first impressions of An Mingchen, then [-]% of her vocabulary would be commendatory words.An Mingchen's appearance is handsome and clear, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth. He is humorous without losing his demeanor. His conversation has both depth and breadth.

It's a pity that Li Nian didn't see all these advantages.Her first meeting with him was abysmal.An Mingchen's eyes wandered presumptuously over her all the time, and when he saw her sitting down awkwardly, there was even a sneering smile on the corner of her mouth.

Li Nian still remembers An Mingchen's first action after the first meeting.He looked at her with his chin propped on one hand, leaning comfortably on the sofa, his legs crossed, and the other hand lightly tapping on the armrest of the sofa, his words were very confident, but also very careless: "Miss Li."

This kind of attitude almost made Li Nian so angry that he wanted to leave immediately, but An Mingchen grabbed his wrist and pressed him back to the sofa. His expression was still very arrogant, but he said something that Li Nian couldn't believe: "Li Nian , running away won't solve the problem. You know you can't help yourself now."

"What do you mean?"

Her bewildered expression obviously surprised An Mingchen for a moment, and then he quickly reacted, and the sarcasm on the corner of his mouth became stronger: "Didn't your uncles tell you? Now the Li family needs you to be a princess to solve the business Question. And I, to put it bluntly, was the life-saver. Marriage is what your family means, and although your personality and mine are not reliable for marriage, they don't mind, so they want me If you can help, you must marry me."

He only gave her five seconds to digest this event that meant so much to her, and then he continued slowly: "I know you have someone you like named Lu Yuan, but it's a pity he's not that old I can help you. It just so happens that I also have a girlfriend whom I have been dating for two years, so it is evened out. I will clean up my private affairs within two days, and I hope you and that young master of the Lu family can clean up."

At the end, he glanced at her again, and said with a half-smile: "However, of course, you can also choose not to marry me, if you can withstand the pressure at home."

When he said this, he was calm and confident, as if he was talking about the weather, as natural and relaxed, as if he was sure that she could not resist.But Li Nian went home full of anger and doubts, but he didn't expect the truth to be exactly what An Mingchen said.

She's been sold out by her so-called uncles.From her appearance to her character, and even her medical examination reports from previous years, they were all sent to An Mingchen in an extremely efficient manner.Of course, she also has a copy of his in her hand, but there are very few passages, only about his glorious history of entrepreneurship.

An Mingchen, the only son of An Mai, the leader of Ming An Group, founded Riel by himself at the age of 24.In the next few years, Arrail developed like a fast cheetah, and the rapid growth in scale and strength has attracted the attention of the industry.And the outside world's evaluation of An Mingchen himself is also very high. Public opinion commented that he is tough, decisive, calm and far-sighted.

Li Nian glanced at it and tore the paper to shreds.

People who are betrayed often only know the truth when the transaction is successful, and Li Nian is no different.It was three days later that she found out what happened a week ago. Her uncles had already put forward conditions to An Mingchen in a well-dressed and careful way.

An Mingchen's answer was: "Your conditions are too high. I can't agree to this alone. Even if I agree, I can't guarantee it. But you can choose not to marry Li Nian."

But An Mingchen was the only one who was willing to sit down and negotiate terms in those two months. Even if it was an alliance under the city, how could the Li family disagree.

Li Nian finally understood the hidden meaning of An Mingchen's mocking smile.He firmly grasped the degree of the other party's hesitation and greed, threw out the right bait without hesitation, and had no doubt that he was sure of winning, so he was qualified to smile.

And she is really like those women who got married in ancient times. Whether they are willing or unwilling, those feelings that are forced to be buried and their plans and dreams for the future are always insignificant in front of the so-called interests.

An Mingchen soon broke up with his girlfriend who had been with him for two years.His posture was quite decisive and free and easy, without any sloppiness, and was so indifferent that there was no trace of nostalgia.

Li Nian was lucky enough to watch the breakup scene by accident, when neither party noticed her.

She was not too close to them, she could only see their lips moving.In the quiet coffee shop, the woman opposite An Mingchen was crying all the time, her low voice continued like the buzzing of bees.But he didn't seem to have heard of it, just lowered his head and drank his coffee slowly, his expression was cold enough, he didn't even hand over a handkerchief or a tissue, and even his eyes were so careless.

That cold expression was imprinted in Li Nian's mind and could not be lingered for a long time.Such a handsome and finely crafted face clearly looked like a devil in her eyes.As soon as she thought that this man was about to become her husband, she felt a sudden shudder.

Her mood that day was indescribable.Called Lu Yuan at night, but was told that the phone had been turned off.Called three times in the morning, noon and night the next day, but got the same response as the first night.

She wanted to find him, but found that she was under house arrest at home.At some point, multiple security guards were added to the home, monitoring her from a 360-degree angle.

Li Nian has never seen such unity in the Li family.These relatives of hers really spent a lot of money in order to hand her over successfully.

She couldn't take a step out of the gate for a whole half a month.Li Nian went on a hunger strike to protest, and in the end was forcibly held down and forced to infuse glucose.She tried to escape again, only to find that all the financial resources of the Li family had presumably been spent on hiring guards to prevent her from escaping.

All the people in the family took turns to enlighten her, but she turned them away.She couldn't contact Lu Yuan.The home phone has been cut off, her mobile phone has been confiscated, her internet connection has been cut off, and she is being guarded like a prisoner.

Half a month later, An Mingchen came to visit her.He bent down slightly in front of her, carefully observing her face.Li Nian looked at him coldly, and said coldly: "I still don't like you. Since you want to marry so much, why don't you marry my uncles. I hate you very much."

An Mingchen was amused by her last two words, and it took him a long time to stop his smile: "Your uncles are not as beautiful as you. Even if you are married, you must be sincere. There is no one in your family who is more beautiful than you. "

Li Nian reiterated again: "But I don't like you."

"What does that matter." An Mingchen smiled again, "Whether you like it or not like it won't be the same. Do you still want to count on that half-crippled Lu Yuan? To associate with you, what is the use of such a person if you want to come?"

Li Nian opened his eyes slightly, and then became furious: "So it's you!"

"That's right, I was the one who did it." An Mingchen was still smiling faintly, and said indifferently, "I told you to break up with Mr. Lu within two days, but you didn't seize the initiative in time, so I had no choice but to act. To be honest, I didn't even say a few words before Lu Yuan agreed to break up with you. Isn't your relationship claimed to be very strong? Are you disappointed when I say that?"

Li Nian gritted her teeth and stared at him, almost wanting to stare him out of a hole.

However, An Mingchen remained calm: "Do you want to know the last thing he said after I talked with him?"

Li Nian didn't answer, so he continued on his own: "He said, you and him are not boyfriend and girlfriend. You are just friends who grew up together."

Li Nian's cheeks suddenly lost all color.

She had to admit again that An Mingchen was really good at picking people up.Even if she didn't want to believe these words, Lu Yuan's failure to answer the phone once was enough for her to follow An Mingchen's words and begin to doubt him.

She was silent for nearly 10 minutes. This time, An Mingchen was very patient, sitting on the sofa next to him while flipping through magazines while waiting for her.Li Nian finally opened his mouth: "How can you be satisfied?"

He raised his head and smiled slightly: "I'm not satisfied with this transaction from beginning to end. I've been losing money and being calculated. I'm just trying to get back the cost."

"In this case, why did you agree to marry me?"

"I like you so much that I have to keep you private. Are you satisfied with this answer?"

Li Nian responded with a look of complete contempt.

"You don't believe it? To be honest, I don't believe it either." He looked down at the magazine again and said very nonchalantly, "So I plan to experiment."

Li Nian finally married An Mingchen, even though she hated him very much, was hostile to him, and even hated and feared him a little.

If Lu Yuan was the most effective motivation to support her persistent resistance, then An Mingchen's words were the last straw that broke the camel's back.And in the past half month, her ears were about to be callused by the servants and uncles and aunts at home, and the scope of her house arrest was getting smaller and smaller, so she finally thought that she had to agree to get married or choose to commit suicide. There is no way out.

She is like a doll, given away by the family, and then accepted by the scoundrels with a smile.Once she had such a cognition, she was completely disheartened.

But it was clearly a marriage between the two families, but the wedding of the two was held in a very low-key and simple way.An Mingchen proposed to take wedding photos, but was rejected by Li Nian twice in a row.The wedding banquet list he had drawn up was more than ten pages long, but she threw it aside without even looking at it, her eyes resisting like a hedgehog.

How did she answer it? "No wedding banquet, no wedding, I only register with you."

An Mingchen raised his eyebrows after hearing this, and smiled very refreshingly: "Isn't this a bit willful?"

The wayward person is not her.Conversing black and white has always been An Mingchen's forte. When a person is shameless, the only way to subdue him is to be even more shameless than him.Li Nian definitely couldn't do this.All she could do was stare at him fiercely, then gritted her teeth: "Mr. An, do you still want to tell the world about such a shameful thing?"

"I don't see any shame, please advise. Besides, even if it's shame, it's me and not you. I don't care, what do you care?" He smiled softly, holding his chin. Willing to marry me, don't you ever imagine that when you get married, Lu Yuan will come to snatch your marriage like a prince on colorful clouds?"

His way of thinking is abnormal and different from ordinary people, Li Nian has been unable to see him anymore.

However, in the end An Mingchen still followed his advice.There was no lavish wedding, no guests, no friends, and he didn't even tell anyone they were married.Their wedding was too low-key and simple, there was only a couple, and they were still alone.

For the first time ever, An Mingchen indulged her unreasonable demands, which made Li Nian completely puzzled.She stared at him in a daze in their villa used as a wedding room, then lowered her head and put the ring on her finger, even forgetting to resist.

She didn't realize it until he lowered his head to kiss the corner of her mouth, and instinctively wanted to avoid it, but was trapped between him and the wall and couldn't move.An Mingchen lowered his eyes and said casually, "How long do you think we can keep our marriage a secret?"

Li Nian's answer was: "If you don't tell me, it will last forever until I divorce you."

"If you can leave." An Mingchen smiled, "But what if I really slipped my tongue by accident?"

Li Nian's answer was even colder: "That's your business, you can figure it out. I will never slip up."

An Mingchen still smiled lightly, tilted his head slightly, squinted at the sunset, and stopped talking.The smell on his body was fresh and pleasant, with the faint mint smell lingering on the tip of his nose after bathing, which made Li Nian feel a little dazed suddenly.
