Chapter 774: Chapter 015: she seemed to be getting used to him
By the time the opera ended, it was almost eleven o’clock. After watching the opera for three hours, no one would feel tired.
Not only did ye Zhen not feel tired, she was even full of energy. After coming out of the theater, the night wind blew, and her expression relaxed a lot.
She looked at Li Junsheng, who was only wearing a shirt. She wanted to return the clothes she was wearing to him, but he pressed on her shoulder, not letting her take them off.
“Put them on.”
“But –”
“Don’t catch a cold.”
Ye Zhen did not refuse again. She was wearing Li Junsheng’s clothes, and she felt surrounded by his aura, as if she was being hugged by him.
That feeling was surprisingly not bad.
Because of the performance, there were a lot of cars in the theater parking lot today. Li Junsheng asked the driver to drive the car to the other side. At this moment, they still had to walk over.
The night wind blew gently. The two of them walked side by side on the road. Their outstanding appearances attracted the attention of many people even in the darkness of the night.
Ye Zhen was a little embarrassed. She leaned in Li Junsheng’s direction.
“Thank you for today. I haven’t come out to watch the opera for a long time.”
“You’re welcome. Anyway, the tickets are given by my subordinates. If there is such an opportunity next time, I’ll invite you again.”
Li Junsheng said it casually. He didn’t mention that it was because he wanted to ask her out, so he specially found someone to pay a high price to buy two tickets for the inner performance.
“Sure.”Ye Zhen nodded. “The performance tonight was really good. The lead actor’s voice was also good, and his performance was also good.”
“Yeah. It was really good.”
The two of them chatted about the opera, and Ye Zhen suddenly thought of another matter.
“By the way, uncle Li, you like to watch opera. Do you like to watch movies?”
“I do.”Li Junsheng nodded. “However, I’m usually too busy with work, so I don’t have much time.”
“Then, if there’s a good movie next time, I’ll ask you out.”
Ye Zhen said without thinking. After saying that, she realized that she was taking the initiative to go on a date with him, right?
“Okay.”
Li Junsheng’s reply was too fast, and Ye Zhen’s face turned slightly red.
It just so happened that the chauffeur had driven the car over at this time. She quickly got into the car and took this opportunity to avoid the question she had just asked.
She did not take the initiative to ask him out, definitely not.
Sitting in the car and looking at the heavy night sky outside, Ye Zhen was a little conflicted. Li Junsheng should not have misunderstood, right?
It was a long distance from the theater to the Ye family’s house.
Ye Zhen actually had a house in the city, but she didn’t want to live there. She would rather spend more time on the road every day, and she would rather live in the villa every day to get in the way of Chen Wan and Ye Ninghan’s eyes, rather than take the initiative to move away and let the mother and daughter be happy.
Sensing that the people around her seemed to be distracted again, Li Junsheng pinched her palm.
Ye Zhen tried to pull her hand back. Her hand was not a toy. Why did he always like to pinch her hand?
Her hand was not pretty either. Compared to her appearance, her hand was considered fleshy. Although her fingers were slender, they were more fleshy than most girls. It was fleshy when pinched.
Li Junsheng stopped her. He pinched her palm and stretched it out, looking at the lines on her palm.
“Don’t move. I’ll read your palm.”
PFFT. Ye Zhen almost choked on her own saliva. Li Junsheng read her palm?
“Uncle Li, aren’t you all atheists? You can read Palm?”
“Yes.”Li Junsheng nodded with a serious look on his face. Ye Zhen didn’t believe him. His finger brushed across her palm. She felt itchy. Besides the itchiness, an electric current flowed from her palm all the way to her heart.
She swallowed her saliva and suddenly felt that it was a little difficult to breathe.
Li Junsheng acted as if he did not notice her abnormality. His fingertip brushed across her lifeline.
“Your lifeline is very long. Although there are some small forks in the front, I can see from the back that you will live a long and rich life.”
Ye Zhen saw that he was serious and did not believe him. Instead, there was a feeling that he was a fraud.
“Your career line is not bad. You will have great achievements in the future.”
Hehe. Nonsense, right?
“Your relationship line –“Li Junsheng paused for a moment and looked up at Ye Zhen. Ye Zhen was a little nervous being looked at by him.
“Your relationship line goes all the way to the end and there are no forks. This means that you will only fall in love once in your life and then you can grow old.”
Really? Ye Zhen pulled her hand back. She looked at it for a long time, but couldn’t see anything.
“Uncle Li, are you lying to me?”
“No. I’m serious.”
“Ha.”Ye Zhen didn’t believe it.
“You don’t believe me?”Li Junsheng’s body leaned toward her. His breath brushed her face. Ye Zhen was inexplicably nervous and swallowed her saliva.
“Hehe. Uncle Li, I don’t think you’re advocating feudal superstition now, right?”
“So?”Li Junsheng stared at the red lips that were close by. His gaze deepened.
“So I really don’t believe what you’re saying.”The atmosphere in front of her was a little strange. Ye Zhen pulled her hand back and smiled awkwardly.
“Since you don’t believe me, I’ll naturally make you believe me.”
Li Junsheng’s last words disappeared from her lips. She widened her eyes and looked at the enlarged face in front of her. For a moment, she felt something flash through her mind, but it was quickly disrupted by his kiss.
His hand covered her eyes. She had no choice but to close her eyes, but her senses were sharper.
His breath, his lips, his temperature, and his kiss.
At the moment when she was powerless and could only snuggle into his arms, he let go of the hand covering her eyes and looked down at her reddened face. His voice was a little hoarse.
“Now, do you believe me?”
Ye Zhen blinked. She didn’t quite understand how her belief in him had anything to do with him kissing her.
“You still don’t believe me?”
Looking at her misty eyes, there was a dense mist in them. He could feel all the blood in his body rushing to somewhere below his body.
His throat tightened. He lowered his head and kissed her again.
“Then I can only let you trust me a little more.”
..
Ye Zhen entered the door almost at the same time. Ye Nanshan, Ye Ninghan, and a few others were sitting in the living room. She acted as if she didn’t see them.
She passed them and went straight upstairs. Her footsteps were a little fast. After entering the door, she quickly threw her body on the bed. Slowly, her body bled back.
The tip of her nose seemed to still have Li Junsheng’s breath, and on her lips was his kiss.
Her hand caressed it, but she pulled it back as if she had been electrocuted.
Uncle Li, what did he mean? Why did he kiss her?
Her face was a little hot. She turned around and buried her face into the pillow. At this moment, her phone rang. It was Ling Xuan.
“Hello, Ah Xuan.”
“TSK. What’s wrong with your voice?”Ling Xuan could tell that something was wrong just by listening to her voice. “Are you on some handsome guy’s bed?”
“What nonsense are you spouting?”Ye Zhen sat up, but her voice was still a little hoarse.
If Ling Xuan was right in front of her, she would definitely notice that something was wrong with her.
“Is it nonsense?”Ling Xuan snorted. “Enough. “I don’t care which handsome guy you’re in bed with. “I want to tell you, didn’t the hotel surveillance say that there was a problem last time? “Couldn’t bring it up? “I said that I lost something and insisted on investigating. “The other party had no choice but to give me the information from that time, but they said that the data has been erased. Whether or not it can be restored is none of their business.”
Ye Zhen’s expression changed and suddenly became serious. “Do you mean that the surveillance footage can still be restored?”
“Of course. Why Don’t you take a look at who I am?”
Ling Xuan’s voice was a little smug, she changed the topic. “Alright, I won’t tease you anymore. I found a computer expert. The other party can restore the destroyed information, but it will take some time. “I called you to tell you about it.”. “This is considered progress. Wait a few days. When the data is recovered, you will know who it was that night.”
“Okay. Thank you.”
“Don’t be polite with me.”Ling Xuan snorted. Then, as if she thought of something, she asked, “By the way, what are you going to do when you catch that person?”
“I’ll see. In short,”Ye Ninghan definitely set her up, but there was a fork in the middle. That gigolo didn’t succeed. Instead, he benefited from a wild man who came from God knows where.
Ye Zhen was worried about finding this man. She didn’t want to see photos or videos that she didn’t want to see on the Internet when she didn’t know about it.
“Okay, I’ll try my best to help you find this guy.”
Ling Xuan was about to hang up the phone after saying that. Ye Zhen suddenly called out to her.
“What’s wrong? Is there anything else?”
“Ah Xuan, if a man asks you to pretend to be his girlfriend, but he gets close to you from time to time, is he serious or just acting with you?”
“Someone wants you to pretend to be his girlfriend?”
“It’s not me,”ye Zhen answered quickly. “A colleague from our company, she encountered such a problem. She asked me for help.”
“Is this woman stupid? That man obviously approached her on purpose. He was afraid that this woman would not agree, so he said that he wanted her to pretend to be his girlfriend. In fact, he has evil intentions.”
“Is that so?”Ye Zhen had a faint premonition, however, “You don’t know that their family backgrounds are very different. I, that female colleague, feel that the other party doesn’t have the kind of woman that he wants? There’s no need to –”
“Is that so? Then it’s possible that the other party is just playing around.”
“Just playing around?”
“Yeah, look, he said that he wants your colleague to pretend to be his girlfriend, but he gets close from time to time. That must be taking advantage of him, right?”
Take Advantage? Take Advantage? Ye Zhen felt a little guilty.
“Let me tell you, for a man with such good conditions, if he is serious about a woman whose status and status are not as good as his, there is no need to say anything about pretending to be his girlfriend. Since he is pretending, then it can only be for fun.
“He is playing around. If your colleague takes it seriously, he will say that you see. I have already told you that I am just playing around. You are the only one who took it seriously.”
But —
She thought of Li Junsheng’s gentle yet clear face. She couldn’t connect him to the person who played with women’s feelings.
“That colleague of yours must have never been in love. He’s too innocent.”
Was that so?
Ye Zhen’s previous shyness and embarrassment had completely disappeared.
“OH. Okay, I’ll tell her.”
After hanging up the phone, ye Zhen sat on the bed in a daze for a long time before suddenly laughing.
Forget it, what’s the point of thinking so much?
Li Junsheng and she were never the same kind of people. Since he said to pretend, then it was fake. As for the matter of him taking advantage of her —
He was so handsome and had good skills. She would take it as her taking advantage of him.
Ye Zhen comforted herself like this, but that night, she still had insomnia.
..
When ye Zhen received Li Junsheng’s call again, her voice was no longer as warm as before.
“Uncle Li, what’s the matter?”
Li Junsheng could hear it through the phone, so he spoke casually.
“Didn’t you say you wanted to invite me to watch a movie? There’s a movie that’s going to be released tonight. You –”
“Uncle Li, I have an appointment with my friend tonight. I’m afraid I’m not free.”
“Is that so?”Li Junsheng was not annoyed. The fish had already fallen into the net. There would always be a time when he would make the other party willing. “Since you have an appointment with your friend, let’s meet again tomorrow. Zhen, I don’t think you have an appointment with your friend Tomorrow, right?”
“Tomorrow? I have an appointment with President Ning tomorrow. As you know, my proposal has been approved. I’ll make a final confirmation with President Ning Tomorrow.”
“Is that so? Then congratulations.”
“Thank you, Uncle Li.”Ye Zhen cleared her throat. “Uncle Li, if there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up now.”
After saying this, Ye Zhen quickly hung up the phone.
Li Junsheng held the phone in his hand. He felt that the little girl on the other end of the phone was almost impatient to hang up the phone. He narrowed his eyes.
What’s wrong with the little girl?
..
When ye Zhen hung up the phone, she felt a slight sense of discomfort in her heart. She couldn’t tell why she felt uncomfortable.
She shook her head. It was all fake anyway. It didn’t seem like there was anything wrong with rejecting Li Junsheng.
Anyway, her girlfriend was all fake. Since it was fake, could it be that she really wanted to date him and have other thoughts?
Shaking her head, ye Zhen told herself not to think about it. Next, she tried her best to Perfect Ning Hai’s proposal.
The next day, Ye Zhen made an appointment with President Ning. Last time at President Ning’s family banquet, she left early. Tonight, she specifically suggested hosting a dinner party for President Ning.
The place for dinner was booked in a private restaurant. Besides her, she called Xiao Xu. President Ning’s side had a secretary surnamed Zhao.
Not long after ye Zhen arrived, President Ning and secretary Zhao arrived.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, ye Zhen brought out the newly revised proposal for President Ning to see. She should have asked President Ning to go to the drawing company.
However, President Ning would cooperate with the drawing company because of ye Zhen’s uncle, Lu Zhixuan. President Ning himself was very displeased with ye Nanshan, so he did not like to go to the drawing company to discuss official business.
After ye Zhen showed the proposal to President Ning, President Ning’s eyes were filled with admiration. “Not bad. I didn’t expect that you could come up with a better proposal after the original proposal couldn’t be used. This one is better than the original one.”
“Thank you for your praise, President Ning.”Ye Zhen had a faint smile on her face. She was still very confident in her own proposal.
“Okay, it’s decided then.”
President Ning made the decision. Ye Zhen smiled. “Then, President Ning, I’ll let them serve the dishes.”
“Okay.”President Ning did not object. He admired ye Zhen very much. Ye Zhen glanced at Xiao Xu. Xiao Xu stood up and went to find the waiter to serve the dishes.
President Ning’s secretary, Xiao Zhao, went out to make a call. Not long after, she came in. She looked at President Ning and then looked at ye Zhen. He went up to President Ning and said a few words. President Ning looked a little surprised, then looked at Xiao Zhao.
“Are you sure?”
“No.”
President Ning stood up and glanced at ye Zhen. “Xiao Ye, I have a friend outside. I’ll go and Say Hello.”
“Okay. Make Yourself at home.”
Ye Zhen stood up. She didn’t know who President Ning’s friend was. Xiao Xu came back at this time and said that President Ning was chatting with someone outside.
The door of the private room was opened again. President Ning came back. He didn’t wait for Ye Zhen to stand up to greet him.
He saw the person behind President Ning.
Li Junsheng?
..
“Xiao Ye, let me introduce you. This is mayor Li.”
“Mayor Li, this is ye Zhen, the head of the Planning Team of our cooperation company. She’s very capable.”
“President Ning, you don’t have to introduce me. I know Zhen Zhen.”
Li Junsheng’s voice brought ye Zhen back to her senses. She looked at him and when she met President Ning’s puzzled eyes, she said awkwardly, “Uncle Li.”
“You two know each other?”
President Ning didn’t expect this turn of events. There was such a name. Zhen Zhen?
Why didn’t he know that mayor Li and Ye Zhen were on such good terms? He wasn’t the only one surprised. Xiao Zhao and Xiao Xu were both stunned.
Wow, mayor Li and Ye Zhen knew each other? No Way?
“Yes. Professor Lu and my father both admire him very much. Zhen Zhen is Professor Lu’s granddaughter. Naturally, we know each other.”
As Li Junsheng spoke, he walked directly to ye Zhen’s side and pulled out the chair beside her to sit down.
“That’s Great.”President Ning was satisfied and gestured for them to sit down. At this time, the waiter started to serve the dishes. He asked the waiter to bring the wine.
“It’s really a rare fate. Since mayor Li and Xiao Ye know each other, let’s celebrate and have a drink together.”
“President Ning.”Ye Zhen wanted to say that there was no need, but the waiter had already gone to get the wine.
Ye Zhen could not refuse. She subconsciously looked in Li Junsheng’s direction.
Li Junsheng looked at ye Zhen, and his eyes were filled with uncertainty. “President Ning, I’m afraid it’s not convenient, right? I realized that Zhen Zhen doesn’t seem to drink.”
“How can you not drink? I’ve seen your alcohol tolerance last time. You can still drink.”
President Ning was trying to undermine ye Zhen. Ye Zhen wanted to say that she had only drunk two small glasses of red wine last time. How could she drink it. But how could president Ning give her a chance?
The wine was served very quickly. It was not red wine, but white wine. Ye Zhen felt that something was not right.
Xiao Zhao was a good judge of character. Without waiting for President Ning’s instructions, she opened the wine and poured a glass for Li Junsheng. “Mayor Li, this is your treat.”
“You’re welcome.”
Xiao Zhao finished pouring the wine for him, then poured it for President Ning and Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen looked at the transparent wine. She really didn’t drink much white wine. In the past, she always drank more red wine or beer.
“President Ning, why don’t I Drink Beer?”
“Look at you, what beer are you drinking? Can’t you see Mayor Li is here? You still call mayor Li Uncle. As a niece, why don’t you accompany Uncle for a drink?”
President Ning had good intentions. Not only was ye Zhen’s ability in the company obvious, but she also had shares in the general drawing company.
Although ye Nanshan had suppressed her due to filial piety, as long as ye Zhen could get to know mayor Li and build a relationship with him. It would definitely be beneficial for her in the future.
With Li Junsheng’s relationship, if ye Nanshan wanted to make things difficult for ye Zhen in the future, he would have to consider the relationship between Ye Zhen and Li Junsheng, right?
