Chapter 705 Youre free to go (1/2)

Not too far away from Tao Meng and Ling Ni's table, Yue Ling maintained her usual calm composure. She saw the way Ling Ni froze when she saw Liu Shan. However, did she care? No.

She looks away from the woman and glances at her assistant. Her hand was still holding onto his wrist but under the table.

One look was all it took for her to read his mind. She knew that he was fuming with rage on the inside at the way Tao Meng was treating Ling Ni with no respect.

She sighs inside and loosens her grip as her voice fell quietly.

”Don't be reckless. Remember, you have nothing to do with her anymore.”

Liu Shan's eyes were red due to him trying to suppress his anger. He did say he doesn't have anything to do with Ling Ni anymore, but how can he just ignore the way she is being treated?

Now, he can't help but wonder what kind of life she has been living under Tao Meng.

However, his boss was also right.

He can't do anything reckless. If he does, it means he'll just end up going to Ling Ni and be left with an even more broken heart.

Not only that, but he also cannot put everyone else in danger. Especially, Uncle Nuo.

He gritted his teeth before inhaling a deep breath and force himself to look away from Ling Ni.

Tao Meng kept his eyes on Yue Ling as she was the reason why he is even here. He leans closer to Ling Ni and whispers to her ear.

”Get your friend to come over.”

Ling Ni stiffened at his order. The night was already cold, but she swore it was like someone had splashed ice-cold water on her.

She glances at Liu Shan then search for Yue Ling. However, when she realized that they were sitting at the same table, her brows slightly furrowed in question.

Why are they sitting at the same table?

”I…”

She trembles a stutter in answer to the man as she stares at Yue Ling and Liu Shan. She bit her lower lip and ponder in thoughts.

Didn't the media say Yue Ling is engaged to Lu Tian? If she is, why is she here with Liu Shan?

Could it be that they are secretly seeing each other?

As her mind began to get the better of her, a wave of jealousy wash over her.

With her current situation, she knows that Liu Shan is beyond her reach. However, she cannot watch as someone like Yue Ling, fool around with someone as sweet as the assistant.

Thinking back to the deal Tao Meng had offered when they were leaving Moonlight, she bites her lower lip more.

She looks away from the retired model and lowers her head like a shy little girl.

”If I can convince her to come over here, will you keep your promise from earlier?”

Tao Meng was confused by her words. However, remembering the deal, he chuckles and caress the side of her thigh before his hand slowly moves up and her cheek.

”Sweetheart, you have been with me for so many years. When have I ever gone back on my words?”

His movements were gentle and careful like she was his most prized possession. He steals a quick glance at Yue Ling then looks away.

”If you can get her to come over, you're free to go.”
