Chapter 1666 - She Had Never Liked Him
Chapter 1666: She Had Never Liked Him
It was a call from Lou Lan.
Xiao Ying was a little surprised, having not expected Lou Lan to call her.
After all, Lou Lan had been avoiding her over the past few days when she wanted to meet her.
Lou Lan arranged to meet Xiao Ying at LY Corporation tomorrow.
After the call, Xiao Ying returned to her room where Wan Bao had already fallen asleep on the bed.
Her pink lips were slightly opened and saliva flowed out. Xiao Ying took a tissue and wiped it clean for her.
She turned off the lights in the room, leaving only a yellow wall lamp switched on.
She sat by the bed and stared at Wan Bao for a long time, a motherly gentleness appearing in her eyes.
Coming out of the room, Xiao Ying found Tang En downstairs.
Tang En sat on the sofa, his expression dark.
“Senior, what’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?” Xiao Ying poured a cup of warm water for Tang En.
Tang En looked at Xiao Ying, wanting to say something but stopped. In the end, he said nothing and shook his head. “It’s nothing.” He took a sip of warm water and asked, “How’s work?”
“The person in charge of LY Corporation’s project has agreed to meet me.”
…
The next day.
Xiao Ying took a taxi to LY Corporation.
When they arrived at the project department, Lou Lan’s assistant asked Xiao Ying to wait in the lounge.
In the end, she waited for an entire day.
During this period, no one gave Xiao Ying a glass of water.
Xiao Ying did not care. When she was carrying out missions in the past, she had suffered even more.
When Xiao Ying came, she had brought some snacks made by Tang En in her bag and Tang En had even given her a pot of nutritious soup.
Even after an entire day, she was not hungry at all.
It was not that Lou Lan did not know that Xiao Ying had come. She had deliberately ignored her to see Xiao Ying’s performance.
However, Xiao Ying was not in a hurry. She only sat in the lounge and waited without any complaints. Lou Lan admired Xiao Ying’s patience.
Although this woman was young, she was definitely not someone ordinary people could compare to.
In the evening, Lou Lan’s assistant came in to remind her, “Miss Lou, that Miss Tang is still waiting in the lounge.”
Lou Lan leaned against the chair and was silent for a few seconds before she said coldly, “Let her come over.”
After a minute or two, there was a knock on the door.
Lou Lan finished signing the document and put the pen into the pen holder. She looked toward the door and said coldly, “Come in.”
Xiao Ying entered Lou Lan’s office.
Even after waiting for a day, there was no unhappiness or complaint on Xiao Ying’s face.
“Miss Lou.” Xiao Ying smiled.
Lou Lan looked at Xiao Ying. Xiao Ying was wearing light makeup and a white shirt paired with black pants. Her long hair was tied into a low ponytail and her small face was as exquisite as a painting. However, there was a kind of stunning beauty in her light makeup.
It was because this woman was too beautiful that Lou Lan felt a sense of danger.
What kind of woman had she not seen with a man like Long Ming? But this Xiao Ying had a mysterious charm to her that made people fall in love with her.
Lou Lan got up and walked to the sofa. “Miss Tang, please sit here!”
Lou Lan personally brewed tea and handed it to Xiao Ying.
The moment Xiao Ying took the cup, Lou Lan let go and the hot tea spilled onto the back of Xiao Ying’s hand.
The piercing pain on her skin made Xiao Ying’s pupils contract slightly.
However, she had been trained since she was young and had endured much more pain than now.
The slight burn did not make her shout. Instead, her expression became even more calm and indifferent.
“Aiya, Miss Tang, are you alright?” Lou Lan looked apologetic.
Xiao Ying smiled and shook her head. “It’s nothing. It’s just a small burn. If Miss Lou still doesn’t believe me or is unhappy with my existence, I can give you my promise in another way.”
With that said, Xiao Ying picked up the broken glass shards on the floor and slit the back of her scalded hand.
Blood immediately gushed out.
Lou Lan’s pupils constricted slightly. She had not expected Xiao Ying to be so strong.
“Do you really have no feelings for Long Ming?”
Xiao Ying replied, “If I had any improper thoughts about him, Miss Lou probably wouldn’t be his fiancée now.”
The scratch on the back of Xiao Ying’s hand hurt, but Xiao Ying did not even frown.
This woman was a ruthless person!
“If you can do it without ruining my relationship with Long Ming, I can give the project to your company. However, you can’t be the one who interacts with me.”
Xiao Ying nodded. “Miss Lou, you don’t have to worry about me ruining your relationship with Long Ming. I’ve never liked him before and I won’t in the future!”
…
After Long Ming got Mo Tian to find out why Xiao Ying was here last night, he went to LY Corporation personally after he was done with work during the day.
He did not ask the front desk to inform Lou Lan and went straight to Lou Lan’s office.
Before Lou Lan’s assistant could report about his visit, Long Ming had already heard the conversation between Xiao Ying and Lou Lan.
Hearing Xiao Ying say that she had never liked him before, Long Ming’s eyes darkened completely.
His grip on the door handle tightened and loosened. In the end, he let go of the door handle and turned around to leave.
He also instructed Lou Lan’s assistant not to tell Lou Lan that he had come to find her.
…
After Xiao Ying had settled things with Lou Lan, she left LY Corporation.
Walking out of the gate, she stood by the roadside, planning to take a taxi.
Suddenly, a black sedan drove toward her at a crazy speed.
Xiao Ying was shocked by his speed.
This car was clearly coming for her. Was he trying to kill her?
Xiao Ying ran forward quickly, but the car was faster.
Xiao Ying frowned and turned around, running toward LY Corporation.
But that car caught up very quickly.
Xiao Ying had nowhere to hide. Just when she thought that she would be knocked to the ground by the car, the front of the car almost touched her knees and stopped.
It was extremely dangerous.
Xiao Ying fell to the ground in a sorry state. Her palm was scraped and it hurt terribly.
There was no movement from the person in the car. Xiao Ying regained her senses and stood up, looking at the person in the car through the windshield.
Meeting those cold and dangerous eyes, Xiao Ying shivered.
The man who had almost hit her with his car was Long Ming!
The two of them stared at each other for nearly ten seconds before the car backed away and turned a corner, speeding away.
Xiao Ying panted heavily, looking in the direction where the car had disappeared. She furrowed her eyebrows and cursed, “Lunatic!”
…
Xiao Ying felt a little uneasy that Long Ming found her.
However, it was a good thing that Lou Lan had already come to an agreement. She had to discuss it with Tang En and return to R Country soon.
Xiao Ying returned to the resort villa.
Walking into the living room, Xiao Ying suddenly heard Wan Bao’s cries and she rushed forward.
“Baby, what’s wrong? Where’s Papa Tang En?”
Seeing that Xiao Ying had returned, Wan Bao jumped into her arms. “Mommy, Papa has been taken away by the big baddie…”
What?!
Tang En had been taken away?
Xiao Ying thought of Long Ming’s dark eyes and a bad feeling rose in her heart.
