Contract Bride, the power game of misplaced love

The editor-in-chief was startled and shook his head quickly:

"No, people are least defensive at night. If he does something bad to you, you will be in big trouble."

Li Zhijian smiled slightly and said calmly:

"Editor-in-chief, don't worry, I just want to invite him to a cafe to talk."

The editor-in-chief shook his head, still not quite believing it:

"Okay, I'll go with you. If he does anything bad to us, we won't care."

Li Zhijian looked at him again.

She had never thought that her editor-in-chief would be so kind to her employees.

His defense of herself made her more determined to get Xiao Yuhenghao to withdraw the charges against her.

"You say hello to him and I'll sit next to you. If he doesn't do anything out of line, we'll apologize to him. But if he dares to cause trouble, we won't be afraid of him."

Li Zhi always felt that Xiao Yuheng had bad intentions. If the editor-in-chief was not here to cause trouble, he would not have let it go.

Then she said softly:

"Editor-in-chief, I am enough on my own, you don't have to accompany me."

No matter how Li Zhijian persuaded her, the editor-in-chief refused to let her meet him alone. He said worriedly:

"Zhijian, you don't really understand men. I asked you to admit your mistakes, but I don't want you to sell your soul. We need to hold our heads up high. We need to hold our heads up high."

Li Zhijian wanted to cry but had no tears. From childhood to adulthood, she only had her grandmother.

She didn't know anyone well, and she always felt that as a father, she was a little worried about her child, so she finally gave in:

"Thank you, Editor-in-Chief. I'll tell you after I finish talking to him!"

The editor-in-chief held his eyes and smiled:

"Then call him over quickly. We need to be more proactive."

Li Zhijian originally wanted to say that she had already called Xiao Yuheng.

However, seeing the editor-in-chief's eager look, she couldn't help but give her a call.

Not long after, Xiao Yuheng's voice sounded again: "Have you figured it out?"

Li Zhijian said indifferently:

"Mr. Xiao, I see you are busy today, why don't we come back tonight?"

Xiao Yuheng didn't expect that she would take the initiative to ask him out tonight, as if she had other intentions.

At the moment, he was in a very good mood. When he heard the word "tonight", he did not object, but was a little proud:

"Li Zhijian, what on earth are you planning? Then let's do it tonight!"

Before she could open her mouth, Xiao Yuheng quickly told her about a garden hotel.

Li Zhijian shook her head. Xiao Yuheng had obviously taken advantage of her. She didn't plan to meet him here.

"Then let's go to a cafe or a restaurant."

Xiao Yuheng sneered and said coldly:

"Li Zhijian, please don't let your imagination run wild. Do you think I sent you here for something else? I don't want to spend the night in a hotel. It's too dirty."

Li Zhijian felt that she seemed to have misunderstood, so she quickly apologized:

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean anything else."

Xiao Yuheng cleared his throat and spoke indifferently:

"There is a high-end restaurant on the 29th floor. We can dine and chat at the same time."

Li Zhijian felt relieved and responded in a low voice: "Okay."

Just as she was about to hang up the phone, Xiao Yuheng suddenly spoke:

"Li Zhijian, since you apologized to me, this meal should be my treat."

Li Zhijian almost dropped her phone. This was a rich second-generation man, how could he make things so difficult for her?

However, due to the other party's identity, she couldn't say much, she just smiled:

"OK then."

"See you at seven tonight."

Li Zhijian nodded slightly: "Yes."

As soon as she hung up, the editor-in-chief couldn't wait to ask:

"What did he say?"

Li Zhijian snorted:

"I promised to go out for a while."

The editor-in-chief was relieved and said to himself:

"so far so good."

When Li Zhijian thought about Xiao Yuheng asking her to treat them, she felt something was not right. The seat chosen by Xiao Yuheng must be very valuable.

But having said that, you can't go back on your word, right?

She didn't have much savings and was afraid that she would be exposed tonight, so she boldly asked:

"Editor-in-chief, can you give me some money?"

The editor-in-chief did not hesitate at all and asked generously:

"How many would you like?"

Li Zhijian thought about it and realized that he only had less than a thousand yuan in cash.

It would cost at least two thousand yuan, so she made a gesture.

The editor-in-chief was stunned. "Two hundred?"

"No, two thousand."

The editor-in-chief searched his pockets and found that he had less than 500 yuan. He paused and took out a bank card.

Put it into Li Zhijian's hands:

"I don't have that much here, why don't you go down and get it? The six numbers at the end of my phone number are mine."

Li Zhijian refused to accept it, so she quickly said:

"No, that's it. I'll ask for help from someone else."

The editor-in-chief insisted on putting the bank card in her hand, and the two of them pushed and shoved each other.

It just occurred to me to borrow some money, just in case!

At this moment, a figure appeared in front of them. Zhou Qinghe was holding a package and shouted excitedly:

"Hey, I received your package."

Li Zhijian felt a little embarrassed, but the editor-in-chief was still very generous and insisted on giving her the bank card:

"Take it, thank you."

With that, the editor-in-chief left.

Zhou Qinghe and Li Zhijian were left behind, both of them looked confused.

Li Zhijian was afraid that she would overthink it, so he quickly said:

"Qinghe, I went to ask the editor-in-chief for some money, but he didn't have any money, so he gave me this bank card and told me to go get it myself."

Zhou Qinghe had an expression of envy and jealousy. It was rare for someone to enjoy such preferential treatment.

It seemed that the editor-in-chief was very nice to her. She nodded calmly:

"Okay, I understand."

After saying that, Zhou Qinghe handed the phone to Li Zhijian.

"I'm here to help you deliver the goods."

Li Zhijian took the package and found that there was no name or number left in it except his cell phone number.

This seems to be a special package.

Li Zhijian looked around but couldn't tell who sent it. She took it in her hand and said with a smile:

"Thank you, Qinghe."

The two exchanged some pleasantries before Zhou Qinghe reluctantly left.

After Zhou Qinghe left, Li Zhijian quickly opened the package. She had not told anyone the address of her new company. Where did the package come from?

When he opened it, he was stunned. It was full of photos of her and Zhao Yunshan.

I don’t know who was so bored that he made her look like this.

She sat down and received a message that she hadn't contacted Zhao Yunshan for a long time. She wondered how he was doing.

She took the phone and dialed Zhao Yunshan's number, but no one answered after waiting for a long time.

Just as she was about to hang up, a female voice suddenly rang out:

"Hello, is there anything I can help you with?"
