A feeling of disgust surged through Wen Ning's heart, although she also knew that she was a little sensitive.

After all, who in business wouldn't flatter someone, but she rarely did so.

But...she suddenly thought of Li Chengyu's offer to accompany her to the banquet last night.

What he said at that time was that he was worried about Li Beichen.

But after the whole banquet, I didn't see him paying much attention to this. Instead, he came to get to know dignitaries like Minister Liang?

She felt inexplicably being used.

"Is this the good husband you always maintain? I think he is quite good at flattering me."

Li Beichen's cold voice suddenly sounded behind her, very close to her.

Wen Ning turned around suddenly——

Seeing his sarcastic eyes, I felt like I was being stabbed in my heart, and said unhappily, "You are so weird and weird, I always have a good time with you. If you want to please others, no one will pay attention to you."

It was he who made fun of himself first.

"Yes, I want to please you, but you don't give me a chance."

Unexpectedly, the man was not angry at all, and his deep eyes staring at her were like ice turning into water, extremely gentle.

Wen Ning's face was full of black lines, what happened to him?

Before she could react, Li Beichen took her little hand and walked directly to the screen next to the study room.

"Li Beichen, what are you doing?"

Wen Ning was speechless, lowering her voice and trying to get rid of him. She stared nervously at Li Chengyu, fearing that he would find out.

"Don't worry, he is only thinking about trying to please Minister Liang and the others. He doesn't care about where you are."

Li Beichen raised his eyebrows carelessly, closed the door with his long legs, and pushed her against the screen with one arm.

This is the tea room of the study, and the space is extremely small.

Wen Ning smelled the sudden masculine scent, and his body enveloped her. She almost went crazy, and she refused in a low voice, "Get out of the way, I'm leaving, don't make trouble..."

"Don't you want to know why Li Chengyu went out of his way to get to know Minister Liang?"

Li Beichen stared down at her and spoke to himself.

Wen Ning was stunned and heard him sarcastically say, "Minister Liang is the popular candidate for vice president next year. There are rumors that he has been confirmed. Minister Liang is also the main purpose of Li Chengyu coming to the banquet tonight!"

Wen Ning was completely stunned.

She thought Li Chengyu just wanted to please some powerful people and pave the way for business.

Unexpectedly, Minister Liang will be the vice president next year.

"One more thing, you may not have noticed, Minister Liang and Fu Shendong have a very good relationship.

Moreover, Fu Shendong's real power should be higher than Minister Liang.

Li Chengyu established a good relationship with Minister Liang, and Fu Shendong naturally joined him. "

Li Beichen narrowed his eyes, "Then do you know why Minister Liang paid attention to Li Chengyu?"

Wen Ning was confused by his question and subconsciously said, "Don't make a fuss, maybe Cheng Yu already knows Minister Liang."

"We've known each other for a long time? With his identity?"

Li Beichen sneered coldly and squeezed her soft hand slightly, his eyes still very gentle, "Ning Ning, you were taken advantage of by him.

Have you forgotten that you went to see Si Xiuyuan as soon as you entered the venue tonight?

Si Xiuyuan is Minister Liang's nephew. I think Li Chengyu heard this news, so he was particularly attentive.

Minister Liang mistakenly thought that you were all Si Xiuyuan's friends, so he didn't put his guard up.

In addition, Li Chengyu was so flattering that he was asked to come up and serve tea. "

Wen Ning was startled when she heard this. Looking into Li Beichen's deep and sharp eyes, she suddenly remembered that when Si Xiuyuan introduced Minister Liang just now, Li Chengyu also said that he wanted to invite Si Xiuyuan to his home for dinner.

Perhaps it was that sentence that made Minister Liang feel that Si Xiuyuan and Li Chengyu were very familiar.

Is it really...that's what Li Beichen guessed?

The Li Chengyu he said was very scheming, and his real purpose of coming here was to marry the future vice president.

She frowned, and after thinking for a moment, she looked at Li Beichen's handsome face, shook her head and said, "Even if what you said is true, he came here to get to know dignitaries.

But I also think he is paving the way for the company. After all, they are all people who work in the mall. If they want to succeed, they can't help it by flattery. Li Chengyu wants to move up, so he wants to get to know Minister Liang.

Speaking of you, aren't you here tonight just to win cooperation and to curry favor with Fu Shendong? "

"Not at all."

Li Beichen looked at her deeply, "It is the Li family's task to cooperate.

And I came here expecting that you would be among those invited.

I just want to see you. I don't want to suck up to anyone. "

"..." Are you sick?

The man's hot eyes almost burned Wen Ning.

She secretly scolded him for being shameless and talking nonsense, but her cheeks couldn't help but heat up, and her whole face became angry. She glared and cursed, "Do you think I'm stupid? Do you want to be shameless?"

"One word is false. The sky was struck by thunder." Li Beichen's majestic body suddenly came over.

Looking down at her angry bright eyes, he suddenly raised his sexy lips and said, "Ning Ning, thank you for letting Si Xiuyuan save me just now.

Facts have proved that I did not go in one direction..."

"..." Would you please shut up.

Wen Ning blushed completely and denied it, "I, when did I ask Si Xiuyuan to save you.

I wish you would be framed and kicked out by those people! "

"Huh? You already know that I've been framed, and you're still making excuses?" Li Beichen's sexy voice became gentler, with a hint of ambiguity, "Ning Ning, is it difficult to admit that you are kind-hearted to me?"

"Don't be so sentimental."

Wen Ning was unable to stay still due to his ambiguous gaze, "Get out of the way, I'm leaving."

She pushed him hard, but the man was like a copper wall. His body was hard and domineering, just like the feeling in her memory. She couldn't push him away no matter what.

"Li Beichen, what do you want to do?"

Wen Ning was so angry that his almond-shaped eyes spit out a trace of bright anger, "Please see for yourself how bad your reputation is now. I don't want to stay with you, lest people misunderstand that I am alone and alone, and Li Chengyu is right next to me... "

She lowered her voice, "Do you want to kill me?"

Li Beichen lowered his eyes and looked at her delicate eyelashes that were about to explode.

It was as if he was really a god of plague and was being shunned by her.

The man pursed his lips in silence. His handsome face was outlined deeply and dimly by the moonlight outside the window, but his straight nose and delicate jaw were charming and dangerous.

He is an old man in his thirties, but he looks frustrated and restrained at the moment, just like the little wolfdog she scolded, pitiful and silent.

Wen Ning inexplicably thought of Si Xiuyuan's words.

Now anyone can laugh at him, but he doesn't care, just like a naturally proud person.

But every time she taunted him, he seemed hurt.

After all, it was really the man she loved, and she couldn't be as devoid of empathy as ordinary people.

Just like now... seeing him showing his grievance and being bullied, she felt soft towards him.

Wen Ning sighed, she couldn't be soft-hearted anymore, she would be driven crazy by his shameless show of weakness.

She turned cold and quickly got out from under his arms, "Don't bother me anymore."
