Love Burns Out: Mr. Li Loves Me

Chapter 42: Li Zhengting wants it, she can only give it to him

She just wanted Wen Rong to know that half of her suffering and difficulties were caused by Li Zhengting.

Isn't it true that standing by and watching is the biggest accomplice?

Even if she is soft-hearted towards Li Zhengting in the future, her words today will become a thorn that will pierce Wen Rong's heart deeply.

……

Wen Rong came downstairs and sat on a bench in the garden rest area. Although the sun was shining brightly today, Wen Rong felt that she could not feel any warmth.

Yun Sheng's words echoed in her ears.

She was right. From the moment the Wen family had problems, to when Wen Cheng was arrested and his father was hospitalized, if Li Zhengting had just given them a look, the Chu family would not have been so blatant.

It's just a matter of words, and all her difficulties will be solved.

But Li Zhengting just stood by and watched her and her loved ones in dire straits.

……

Wen Rong sat on the bench in a daze. The cool autumn wind blew her long brown hair, making her shiver from the cold.

Suddenly, she felt a weight on her shoulders, and a black suit jacket was firmly covered on her body, still carrying the residual warmth of its original owner.

"Why do you look so miserable every time I see you?"

Wen Rong looked up and saw the tall and graceful Chu Xiuyan, staring at her with her head down.

Chu Xiuyan didn't expect to meet Wen Rong here. After not seeing her for a few days, her small face, which was already the size of a palm, looked even thinner.

He was so thin that his tiny chin was exposed, and there was a faint blue color under his eyes, which showed that he had not had enough rest.

Chu Xiuyan couldn't help but soften his tone, "Are you feeling unwell?"

……

Wen Rong blinked and lowered her eyes.

Obviously, she and Chu Xiuyan were not in a relationship where they could exchange pleasantries and discuss each other's illnesses.

She was not stupid or slow. A man putting a coat on a woman and even looking at her as if he was not a friend were all signs that something was wrong.

Wen Rong didn't want to provoke him, nor could he afford to provoke him.

So the only choice is to stay away from it.

She stood up, leaving her large, warm coat on the bench, and turned to leave.

But his arm was grabbed.

Wen Rong frowned and tried to break free, but she was no match for the man's strength.

The originally dull little face was stained with a hint of anger, which made it look a little more lively. "Mr. Chu, please let me go!"

Chu Xiuyan looked at her motionlessly. She couldn't leave unless he let go. The stalemate lasted for two minutes.

Although there are not many people here, the combination of handsome men and beautiful women is eye-catching enough, and many people passing by will take a look at them.

Wen Rong felt scared. Although she had a clear conscience, she was afraid that the news of her entanglement with Chu Xiuyan would reach Li Zhengting's ears.

Apart from anything else, that person's possessiveness is terrifyingly strong.

She didn't want to bear his wrath anymore.

Chu Xiuyan looked at her secretly troubled and slightly annoyed expression, his peach blossom eyes filled with joy. It was the first time he saw her like this.

"What did you think of what I told you last time? As long as you agree, I will immediately invest in Wen's Enterprises to ensure that your family will be prosperous and wealthy for the rest of their lives, even better than before."

Wen Rong was now more certain of his guess.

Thinking back to what he said last time, she was so angry that she wanted to laugh, "Mr. Chu, you are meddling too much."

After she finished speaking, she bit her lip and twisted her wrist hard, trying to use brute force to escape Chu Xiuyan's shackles.

That little bit of force couldn't shake Chu Xiuyan at all, but he saw Wen Rong's delicate skin gradually turning red during the pulling.

He didn't insist anymore and let go of her hand.

Wen Rong took a step back, put his wrists behind his back, and said calmly, "Don't worry, Mr. Chu. My husband has already promised to help the Wen family make a comeback. My father will also get the best medical resources. He has also prepared a bright future for my brother. As long as Li Zhengting is there, the Wen family will enjoy endless wealth and glory."

Chu Xiuyan's expression changed immediately!

He and Li Zhengting have been brothers for so many years and have a life-and-death friendship, so naturally he knows him very well.

Since he agreed to help Wen Rong do these things, he must have gotten something more than this.

He and Li Zhengting are both profit-seeking capitalists who put profit above all else. If it is not a business that can make a lot of money, they would not bother to start it.

Chu Xiuyan's amorous peach blossom eyes were filled with anger, and he said sarcastically, "It seems that you have sold yourself to Zheng Ting?"

Wen Rong lowered his head and looked at his toes, and answered silently in his heart: Yes.

Every deal has a price, and he offered so much that she simply couldn't refuse.

At least she got herself a good price, didn't she?

Even though Li Zhengting threatened and forced her to agree.

In Chu Xiuyan's eyes, Wen Rong's silence became a tacit agreement.

He tried his best to control the urge to pinch her chin, gritted his teeth and said gloomily, "Stupid, do you know who he is? Doing business with him is just like being a gambler. Li Zhengting has never lost in the world of fame and fortune, and you will only end up being exploited."

Wen Rong was stunned for a moment, then she curved her eyes and smiled, and slowly spoke with her lips curled up: "He has bad intentions, what about you?"

Chu Xiuyan was shocked. Some clues that he had not had time to dig into were ruthlessly brought to the surface by Wen Rong.

Wen Rong took a step forward and asked in a different tone than usual, "Chu Xiuyan, are you helping me without asking for anything in return? Or did you also think of the price, but your good brother placed the bet before you?"

"That's why you got so angry that you stabbed him in the back in front of me!"

Chu Xiuyan took a deep breath and took a step forward. His 189cm height gave off a strong sense of oppression.

But Wen Rong was not afraid of him.

After the window paper was broken, she felt more at ease.

Chu Xiuyan changed his previous unruly attitude——

"Just you, do you think you can alienate me and Zheng Ting? Wen Rong, you are not that important."

He bent down to pick up the suit on the bench, casually put it on his arm, his face returned to normal, and said indifferently:

"My sister will be returning home soon. I'll have to think carefully about my situation and make plans early."

He walked a few steps, then stopped and said:

"I, Chu Xiuyan, never break my promises. You can come to me anytime you have figured it out."

……

Wen Rong stood in the cold wind for a long time, until all her broken emotions were blown away. Then she walked towards the ward as if nothing had happened.

Until she left, Li Zhengting clenched the wine glass in front of the French window on the third floor, and the expensive red wine inside shook slightly.
