He said he doesn't love me

The noisy occasion made him feel a little dizzy. He was clearly used to socializing with cups and glasses, so what happened today?

Li Cheng looked around and found that there was no one familiar at the scene. Everyone was just pretending to be nice. He suddenly envied Sun Ran, who had friends, a brother, and was so pretty and well-behaved.

Being able to move freely in such a place is also a manifestation of strength. There is no need to look at anyone's face, and there is no need to waste time talking to people you don't know.

He and I are from two different worlds. Although his company seems to be developing well, there are still loopholes. Most people choose to cooperate with him in the hope of getting on board the Sun family's big ship by using his name.

"Hey, Mr. Li, is it possible that your partner doesn't like being with you?"

The person who spoke was sent by Xuan Ya Group. He had some relationship with the boss. His name was Zhao Yu. He was a middle-aged man who looked a little fat. He usually looked superior. Now he was the first choice for the company's external assignment and was very proud of himself.

He walked up to Li Cheng, patted his shoulder, and said arrogantly: "Sometimes, when a person tries every means to climb up, he also has to see if he is worthy of the high branch. Don't you think so? Hahahaha. Don't be surprised, Mr. Li, this is how we talk, straight to the point." He glanced at Li Cheng, hoping to see desolation on the other's face, so as to further prove that what he said was correct.

What's so great about Li Cheng? Isn't it because of the favor of the young master of the Sun family that he has risen to prominence? The company has gone from being on the verge of bankruptcy to being a listed company now, and everyone has given him benefits for the sake of the young master.

He just hoped to get some benefits from the Sun family, but the Sun family only introduced business to Li Cheng and had no intention of helping him with anything else, so Li Cheng often worked overtime and seldom went home.

But in the eyes of outsiders, it seemed that the young master of the Sun family was tired of him, so he was unwilling to let him go home, and now he and he appeared separately at the same banquet.

Everyone around him had a partner or a companion, but he was all alone.

Zhao Yu thought he was right and that was why Li Cheng was speechless. He could hardly hide the disgust in his eyes.

Li Cheng was distracted as he looked into the distance, which gave Zhao Yu more motivation. He kept talking non-stop, and the people who were originally chattering with him immediately shut up when they saw this.

Even if Li Cheng really climbed up the social ladder, he was still half a member of the Sun family. The Sun family would never allow others to bully their own people, even if they didn't like them.

Besides, whether the two of them have a good relationship or not is actually none of their business. He is the boss after all. What qualifications does Zhao Yu have to say that about Li Cheng?

Don't you look at yourself? You are also a person who relies on connections. How dare you criticize others? At least they started from scratch. Their hard work is also inseparable from their ability to get to this position.

"How about this, you call me brother, and I'll ask our boss to consider cooperation with your company?" Zhao Yu was still talking nonsense, and Li Cheng walked quickly towards Sun Ran.

The onlookers were shocked. Was he going to find the young master to question him? Was he going to die?!

"I told you to stop talking! No matter what, he is in the same position as you. Who are you to criticize him? And what you said is so harsh!"

"That's right, just wait. The young master will be here soon. You'll be lucky if he doesn't crack your head open."

"You can mess with anyone else but the Sun family. Good luck to you."

Everyone started to blame Zhao Yu, as if they had not been involved at all and tried to clear themselves of all blame.

Zhao Yu sneered at this: "It's strange that Young Master Sun would pay attention to him! Didn't you see that Young Master Sun didn't even look at him just now? Okay, I'll wait for him, you guys just wait and see!"

They were right. Li Cheng went to find Sun Ran, but not to call him to task. Instead, he went to say hello.

Sun Ran was eating watermelon while Tang Lele chattered around him. He nodded from time to time to show that he was listening. In fact, he was getting annoyed. Was this person's mouth like an alarm clock in the morning? It kept ringing.

Someone come and save me!

Anyone can come, please please!!

If I had known I would have to listen to this person's rambling, I would have followed my brother and the others! At least I don't have to listen to a monologue all the time.

"Sun Ran, are you coming to the party too?"

Who will save me?! Let me see!

Sun Ran turned his head and saw Li Cheng standing in front of him. The watermelon in his mouth was still squeezing juice like crazy. He had to swallow it first, and then he could say, "What a coincidence, are you coming to the party too? Do you know Uncle Qin?"

Seeing that Sun Ran ignored her, Tang Lele turned around and went to look for her brother, leaving the two of them to talk on their own.

"Well, I have a collaboration with Mr. Qin, so I came to take a look." Li Cheng waited for him to finish eating and wanted to ask him to go somewhere else, but he saw Sun Ran suddenly walking towards him, holding his stomach.

"Do you know where the bathroom is? My stomach hurts so much... maybe I ate too much." Sun Ran was in so much pain that sweat began to break out on his forehead. Li Cheng stepped forward to help him.

"I know where it is. I'll take you there." He took Sun Ran to the bathroom, then ran to get him some toilet paper and waited at the door.

After solving the major issue in his life, Sun Ran felt much more energetic. He tidied himself up, washed his hands, and came out to see Li Cheng still there, raising his eyebrows.

"Why are you still here? Is there anything I can help you with?" Sun Ran asked tentatively. Since you saved me from Tang Lele and helped me find the bathroom so quickly, I will help you out. If you need help, forget it. I'm very busy.

Li Cheng walked over and held his hand, then hummed, "I want to... ask you to help me hold the stage, okay?"

"Ah...ah?" Sun Ran looked bewildered. To hold up the scene? No way, you are CEO Li, what kind of scene can't even you hold down?

Li Cheng thought he was unwilling, but still tried to persuade him, so he could only roughly tell him what had just happened.

Now Sun Ran understood. It turned out that others were saying that they were not in a good relationship, mocking Li Cheng for trying to climb up the social ladder and getting abandoned by me?

It’s quite interesting, let’s go and take a look!

What kind of person is this? He doesn't even give Li Cheng a bit of face. If the two companies have any cooperation in the future, it will be so embarrassing.

"Come on, come on, I'll do you a favor! Take me over there and have a look. I'm a little curious about who is so stupid as to not even give you face." Sun Ran asked him to take him over. Li Cheng nodded and pulled him along. After two steps, he suddenly let go of his hand and slowed down so that Sun Ran would not fall behind.

His eyes were fixed on Sun Ran's injured hand.

Be careful, don't touch him again, it will hurt again soon.

Li Cheng encouraged himself in his heart: Very good, he didn't refuse my hand holding, calm down, Li Cheng, don't be anxious. Take it slow, don't be too anxious.

Sun Ran didn't understand his twists and turns, and thought he was disgusted by the smell on his hands, so he lifted them up and smelled them. There was no smell, just the scent of hand sanitizer.

Could it be that Li Cheng is a hidden mysophobia?

Sun Ran: So scary, he is a mysophobia freak.

Li Cheng: I was so happy. He let me hold his hand for ten seconds.

The two walked to the place just now. Zhao Yu didn't expect Li Cheng to really call Sun Ran. The smugness on his face disappeared instantly. He gave Sun Ran a flattering smile, and Sun Ran felt like he was going to get stye.

"I heard...you seem to have a lot of opinions about Li Cheng. Let me hear it. There's no need to whisper behind my back. Just tell me." Sun Ran laughed and seemed easy to get along with.

Zhao Yu didn't expect that he was not here to cause trouble for him. He thought that his reputation was so great that even Sun Ran would give him some face. Immediately, he felt a sense of unwarranted pride.

"Xiao Ran, I'm not saying anything, but your taste in choosing people is not very good. Look, this Mr. Li is not worthy of you at all."

Sun Ran almost wanted to take action, but he still kept smiling: "What do you mean? He is not worthy of me, are you worthy of me?"

"Of course I can! Look at me, not only am I strong and healthy, but I can also earn 20,000 yuan a month! It's 20,000 yuan a month!" His joy almost blinded Sun Ran. I wonder where he got the courage to say such things!

The people around him quietly moved away from Zhao Yu, fearing that Sun Ran's anger would hurt them by mistake.

"I'm not saying anything, but look at your butt and waist, you're a good match for me. What do you think? Think about it, hahahaha." Zhao Yu laughed, not noticing that Sun Ran was holding a bottle of champagne in his hand.

"How can I be worthy of you? How about this? Not only me, I will introduce my brother to you as well. You make 20,000 a month, which is more than enough to support the family, right?"

Zhao Yu nodded, indicating that he was very sensible, but he looked down on Sun Li and felt that Sun Li was a little too fierce, and he was afraid that he could not handle it.

"Bah, don't you see what you are!" Sun Ran looked at Li Cheng and confirmed that he was holding up his phone to record the video. He then cursed without hesitation, "You are from a small company? How dare you covet me?! Brother!! Brother!! Someone is bullying me!!"

The situation suddenly changed. Before Zhao Yu could react, Sun Li heard the noise and rushed over and kicked the man to the ground.

"What's wrong? What? Where did he touch you?!" Sun Li hurriedly checked Sun Ran's condition, and was relieved to see that his clothes were intact. Seeing that Li Cheng was recording the video, he asked him to take his phone to check what had just happened.

Zhao Yu must have been drunk. After being kicked over, he kept insulting Sun Ran, saying that he looked very suitable for him, and that Li Cheng was just a live-in son-in-law. He also brazenly said that he and Sun Li were having an affair.

Sun Li was already angry when he watched the video. He took the champagne in Sun Ran's hand and smashed it on Zhao Yu's forehead. Blood splattered everywhere, and Zhao Yu covered his head and wailed, but how could Sun Li give him this opportunity? He went up and kicked him again!

Feeling that it was not enough to vent his anger, he directly gave a kick that would cut off his family line.

"You think you can say my name directly?! Huh?! Who the hell are you?! Your boss has to be humble when talking to me, and you actually dare to target me!!" He squatted down and grabbed Zhao Yu's hair, cursing viciously: "Speak, keep talking! How is my brother?! How am I?! How is Li Cheng?! I want to see how many lives you have!!"

As he said that, he punched Zhao Yu in the nose. Zhao Yu let out a wail and fainted.

Sun Li stood up slowly and took out a silk scarf from his pocket to wipe his hands. Qin rushed over immediately after hearing what was going on, and Sun Qing also ran over.

Seeing that the matter had been resolved, Qin Wenyan arranged for someone to send Zhao Yu back and asked his men to stop all cooperation with Xuan Ya.

"Brother... calm down." Sun Ran was scared. He just wanted his brother to help him vent his anger and save face for Li Cheng. He didn't expect it to turn out like this.

Sun Li wiped his hands, rubbed his brother's head, and comforted him: "Are you scared? When you encounter this kind of thing, you have to be quick, accurate and ruthless. Remember? If you have a dirty mouth, you will get retribution sooner or later!" As he said that, he glared at Li Cheng. Sun Ran almost thought that he was going to beat Li Cheng up, but he didn't expect that he just cursed.

"If someone says something to you, won't you talk back? Will you curse them? If not, then fight. If mutual fighting doesn't work, then beat him until he can't fight back. If you can't even protect yourself, how can I trust you to leave my little one to you?!"

"Okay, okay, it's okay, it's okay. Go wash first, there are wine stains on your clothes." Sun Qing pulled the man away. Sun Ran looked at the mess on the ground and suddenly felt a little scared.

Is the third brother so hot-tempered? You can't tell at ordinary times...

Oh, he had beaten the original body before, also with a direct kick. Sun Ran suddenly felt pain in his buttocks, and the feeling was still vivid in his mind.

"Um...is this a big enough honor?" He whispered to Li Cheng, who nodded stupidly. It wasn't just enough, it was more like enough.

I guess no one will dare to say bad things about him to his face anymore!

"Are you going home tonight?" Li Cheng asked him. Sun Ran shook his head and pulled him aside.

"I may not go back recently. I'm going to participate in the competition, Lan Yu, do you know?" Sun Ran looked at him and Li Cheng nodded. He knew that this competition was in cooperation with their company.

"Are you going to attend? Do you have a designer?"

"Yes, he's a famous designer in the industry, Mr. Shuangyi! Isn't that awesome? Hahahaha, I want to win a big prize and go see the Northern Lights!!" Sun Ran's eyes were shining and his tone was full of excitement. Li Cheng was unconsciously affected by him and slowly began to laugh.

"Then you have to work harder. When will the filming be?"

"The shoot will be at 1:30 pm on Thursday. Will you be there then? After all, we are working together," Sun Ran asked him. Li Cheng was not sure whether he would go or not, as attending the shoot was not included in his schedule.

But Sun Ran seemed to want him to go, so he nodded: "I will go and help you look at the clothes when the time comes."

There are a lot of people at the shooting location, and clothes and things are easy to get lost, so they usually bring friends over to help watch things.

"Okay, okay, I was just wondering what to do! My brothers are all busy that day, it would be great if you could go!!"

He did not tell them about his relationship with Xia Yi. After all, if they knew about it, they might think that he won the award through backdoor, so he just said that his brother asked Teacher Shuangyi to help with the design.

"See you then! Remember not to wear anything valuable, it's easy to lose it."

The banquet ended in a hurry due to the disturbance. Everyone went back slowly. Li Cheng said a few more words to Sun Ran and left.

"I'm really sorry, Uncle Qin, for disturbing your party." Sun Li calmed down and looked apologetic.

Qin didn't think anything of it when he heard this, but patted him on the shoulder: "Uncle is also wrong. He didn't chase the man out earlier, and let you do it. Is the youngest okay? Are you scared?"

Sun Ran shook his head: "No, thank you for your concern, uncle. I'm really sorry to ruin your party."

Qin smiled and said, "It's okay, it's okay. Next time, just come over earlier to calm the situation for me, okay? Uncle hasn't seen you dancing for a long time."

"Of course! I hope uncle doesn't mind." He answered obediently, neither humble nor arrogant, which made Qin Wenyan like him very much.

After saying goodbye to the host, the three returned home.

"Don't be so impulsive next time. I've already given the order to cut off all cooperation with Hyun-A from now on." Sun Qing patted Sun Li's shoulder and asked Sun Ran to go upstairs to wash up and go to bed first.

The two brothers were sitting on the sofa chatting about something. Sun Ran could only hear Sun Li saying: I should have protected him like this before, so I have to stand up today, I am his brother.

I can't hear what comes after that.

A few days later, at 7pm on Wednesday, Xia Yi called him and asked him to have lunch with him the next day and go directly to the shooting location after lunch. Sun Ran agreed immediately and happily circled around the room.

Great!! One step closer to the Northern Lights!!
