Chapter 468 - The Eve of Return (1/2)
Yezi was lying on Xiao Bing’s body in their room. She knew that Xiao Bing would be leaving the next day. So, smart Maggie specially asked Liu Xiaorui to sleep in her room. Maggie had a strange and lively personality. Among all the people in the Xiao Mansion, the age gap between Liu Xiaorui and her was about ten years. So she and Liu Xiaorui were very close and got along well with each other. In the evening, Maggie asked her to go to her room to rest, so as to give some space to Xiao Bing and Yezi. Although Liu Xiaorui wanted to be with Xiao Bing, she went along with her.
Yezi laid on Xiao Bing’s body, and her eyes were bright. She was wearing white, lacy pajamas. At this time, her disheveled hair swept across Xiao Bing’s face, making her look coquettish and tempting to the eye.
“Brother Bing, I know that you’ll be going back to Dragon Gate tomorrow. Is everything ready?”
Xiao Bing put his arms around Yezi and comforted her. “Don’t worry, I have got everything ready during the period of my leaving last time. By the way, I have not been back these days. Is everything all right? How’s your bid for the land?”
Yezi knew that Xiao Bing wanted to change the topic, so as to make light of the affair of Dragon Gate. In fact, he wanted to avoid worrying Yezi too much. However, Yezi could see that even though Xiao Bing had faced so many opponents, there was never one that made Xiao Bing so nervous and cautious, as this affair. She did not ask anymore. She was a smart girl and knew as long as she was happy and calm, Xiao Bing could carry out this task without anxiety.
Yezi smiled a little smugly. “What do you think? Hei Province is not the Lu Family’s territory and I also can use his tactics to deal with him. I teamed up with several companies to bid for it together, and it’s not just a piece of land. Oh, the whole business circle of the development zone has been contracted by us. If the news is true, it won’t be long before our Ye Family will go a step further. Even if the news is wrong, we can also make a profit, because of the potential of that land.
Looking at Yezi’s complacent appearance, Xiao Bing stretched out his hand, pinched her little nose, and smiled, “My little Yezi is so powerful and capable, but you should guard against arrogance and impetuosity, and don’t be complacent.”
Yezi snorted and said proudly, “Well, I’m so clever, lovely, and beautiful. Why can’t I be proud?”
“That’s okay, but only for a moment.”
Yezi said with a smile, “For a moment.”
Xiao Bing smiled, kissed Yezi’s lips, and then asked curiously, “By the way, I have not been here for the past days. How is Li Yan’er? Did she look for Xu Sheng again?”
Yezi said, “Li Yan’er came to see me once. I think she wanted to inquire about Zhang Qiang, but she was stopped by the security guard of the company. Not everyone can enter my office. Later, she must have realized that it was useless to try and look for Zhang Qiang, so she went to see Xu Sheng again. She was definitely rejected by Xu Sheng, because a few days ago, I heard that she was also booted out from the villa Xu Sheng bought for her.”
Xiao Bing was surprised and said. “Xu Sheng is cruel enough. I thought he would take their past involvement into consideration. Even if they broke up, he was cold-blooded enough to do that. But it’s normal. The villa is his property, and Li Yan’er had hurt him so badly. He just drove her out. He’s merciful enough.”
Yezi smiled and said, “You guessed wrong. In my opinion, Xu Sheng’s heart was hurt badly by Li Yan’er before. He fell in love with her, but he was cheated by her. Now, he knows that his wife is the best for him, and Li Yan’er was only interested in his money. It was useless. He was still willing to fall into Li Yan’er’s trap. Love blinds people. He knew everything and could see through her trap, but it was not so easy to climb out after falling into it. In fact, it’s not Xu Sheng who drove her out of the villa. Xu Wenting was the one who sold the villa to someone else. Xu Sheng did not know about this. When Xu Sheng knew about it, Li Yan’er had already been driven out of the villa.”
Xiao Bing said, “Oh.” Xu Wenting’s behaviour surprised Xiao Bing a little. Xiao Bing asked, “Is Li Yan’er looking for work again now?”
“That’s why I said that it was not so easy for Xu Sheng to free himself from that relationship. Later, Xu Sheng was not very happy when he knew about it, but it was his fault, so he did not say anything. Anyway, Xu Wenting complained when she called me, saying that her father still could not forget Li Yan’er completely, and has been frowning for the past two days. Later, she saw her father going out in a hurry. She felt it was strange, so she followed him…”
Xiao Bing chuckled and said, “Xu Wenting really has some talent as a spy.”
Yezi chuckled and said, “I think so too… Later, she saw Xu Sheng meeting up with Li Yan’er and giving her a sum of money. It seemed to be about 10 thousand yuan. He asked Li Yan’er to go back to her hometown to live. In a word, she could not stay in Jiang City any longer. Li Yan’er planned to take this opportunity to reconcile with Xu Sheng. This woman is very smart and her dignity was far less important than reality. Although she had taken the initiative to break up with Xu Sheng, she cried and asked for forgiveness, but Xu Sheng rejected her.”
Xiao Bing praised him. “From this point of view, Xu Sheng is still a man. On the one hand, he still has feelings for Li Yan’er, so he gave her money. On the other hand, he gave Li Yan’er money to leave Jiang City. In this respect, he does not want to continue to be connected with Li Yan’er, which shows his responsible attitude.”
“Yes,” Yezi said, “after overhearing their conversation, Xu Wenting’s hatred for her father was reduced, and she began to forgive him gradually.”
Xiao Bing said, “Li Yan’er is a woman who has some tricks up her sleeve. If Zhang Qiang stayed any longer with her, he might have been conquered by her, just like Xu Sheng. He clearly knew that he had been tricked and had made up his mind to break up, but he still does not hate her. He also gave her a sum of money to let her start her life again. From this point of view, Li Yan’er’s means are really awesome. But I hope she can learn from this lesson. Although she said that she got nothing, at least she did not lose anything and she still received a sum of money. But not everyone in the world is like Xu Sheng…”
Yezi said, “I think so too. This sort of intelligence is wrong. If she does not change this, she will be miserable one day. If she met an extreme man, she might even lose her life, and then the loss will outweigh the gain.”
Xiao Bing said with a smile, “Those are her own affairs. Now, it’s important that Xu Wenting’s family is finally reunited, and Xu Sheng’s attitude seems to be very firm. That’s good.”
Yezi asked, “What about Zhang Qiang? Didn’t he go back to Hengdian? How is he now?”
