Chapter 6: The Fiancée
Night.
I snapped my eyes open, clutching my heart and gasping for air.
Just now I had a nightmare, in which Xue Zimo actually killed me. The last image that stuck in my mind was that I was lying in a pool of blood, slowly closing my eyes, and stepping into death.
I got up and went to the kitchen to pour a glass of water, and after drinking it in one go, my mood stabilized a little.
Xue Zimo hurt me deeply, but I never thought that he would kill me, and the feeling in the dream was very real. The hand was on the chest, and the knife was just stabbing here, and it hurt.
Because of this dream, I couldn't sleep in the second half of the night.
When I arrived in the morning, I got up and washed up briefly, and rushed to the company without even eating breakfast.
For my current savings, a car is too luxurious, and it is only ten minutes away by bus.
I didn't sleep well last night, and I fell asleep on my desk while working. I don't know how long it took, but when I opened my eyes, I found myself lying on the bed in Ling Yuqian's office.
Startled, he hurriedly got up and walked out.
Ling Yuqian was sitting at his desk reading documents, and when he saw me wake up, he said softly, "Didn't you rest well last night?" ”
"I'm sorry, I'll go to work now." I only felt embarrassed, as his subordinate, of course, he knew that he had deviated, so he hurried out immediately.
It wasn't until it was almost dark that Ling Yuqian came to me and said, "There's a party tonight, you can go with me." ”
"Huh?" I was going to leave work in a while, but I couldn't react to what he said.
"Follow me." He didn't give me a chance to think about it and pulled me into the office.
When he entered, he threw over a bag, "It's a dress inside, let's change it." ”
"Oh." I went inside to change my clothes and took out the dress in the bag.
The skirt is white and the design is beautiful, but it is a little revealing, and it turns out to be low-cut. I'm a conservative person, and I don't like to wear such revealing clothes, so I'm embarrassed.
It should have been a long time coming, and Ling Yuqian's voice came in, "Okay?" ”
"Ah, right away." I replied as I quickly put my skirt on my body, afraid that he wouldn't be able to wait to come in.
I walked out clutching my chest, and Ling Yuqian just turned to look at me.
I lowered my head and didn't dare to look into his eyes, why did my heart beat so fast?
He reached out and rubbed my head and whispered, "Don't be nervous, you're beautiful." His voice was magnetic, and the listener felt even more uncomfortable.
and Ling Yuqian came to the party, which were basically people from high society. Back then, Xue Zimo would also have a party, he said that he wanted to take me with him, but I refused, just because I didn't want him to be talked about as her wife too ordinary.
This is the first time I've seen this kind of occasion, and I feel a little nervous and uncomfortable.
Many bosses would greet Ling Yuqian when they saw him, and speaking carefully and politely was enough to prove how high Ling Yuqian's status was.
"Yu Qian, you're here."
Zhou Wan was wearing a blue V-neck dress, and her originally long hair was pulled up high, looking particularly attractive and beautiful.
Ling Yuqian's attitude towards her was still cold, and she began to talk to her father.
They were talking about business, and I didn't particularly understand it, but Zhou Wan's eyes fell on me like a knife, so I didn't see it, and I was stunned when I moved my eyes to the door.
He seemed to feel my gaze and we looked at each other. I couldn't see any emotion in his eyes, just coldness. Three years have left nothing on his face, and the only thing that has changed should be that he is more mature.
Jiang Siyun, who was beside Xue Zimo, followed his gaze, first stunned, then sneered.
"What's wrong?" Ling Yuqian's voice revealed concern.
I came back to my senses and shook my head at him, "It's fine. ”
Xue Zimo and Jiang Siyun walked over to greet Ling Yuqian.
"Mr. Ling, I haven't seen you for a long time, who is this?" Jiang Siyun seemed to be deliberately embarrassing me, her eyes were full of scheming.
Ling Yuqian glanced at Xue Zimo, who was staring at me, and then hugged my waist intimately and replied, "Shallow, say hello to Mr. Xue and Mrs. Xue." ”
Shallow? It was the first time someone had called me that, and it was as if something had collapsed in my heart. Feeling the warmth of his palm, he didn't have the idea of pushing away in the face of Xue Zimo.
"Mr. Xue is good." After I finished speaking, Ling Yuqian hugged me tightly, "I forgot to introduce to you, her name is Yang Qian, my fiancée." ”
His words were like an explosive, which stunned everyone present. Xue Zimo was the same, he swept over me with a deep and complicated look, stared at Ling Yuqian and said, "Aren't you never going to get married?" Why do you suddenly have an extra fiancée? ”
"The reason why I say such things is because I didn't meet her." Ling Yuqian looked at me, his eyes were gentle as water, which made people sink.
Zhou Wan looked very angry, pulled me away forcefully, and shouted, "Yu Qian, you must be joking, isn't she your secretary?" When did you become your fiancée? Don't you just think I'm sticky to you, how can you scare me in this way! ”
"I'm not kidding you." Ling Yuqian looked at her and narrowed his eyes, then pulled me back into his arms and said to everyone, "You should have heard what I said just now, you don't need me to repeat it again, right?" ”
They shook their heads and said hello to us one after another. It's just that Zhou Wan's appearance is about to explode, and his father is whispering to comfort her.
I've always been confused, and I haven't had a chance to interject. It can be seen that Xue Zimo and Jiang Siyun's faces are cold, and I feel that I am in a good mood. If I can upset them, I'd certainly be happy to do so.
I drank some wine at the party, but the amount of alcohol was not good, and I was dizzy on the way back. Leaning on Ling Yuqian's body, he asked him underestimated, "Mr. Ling, why do you say that I am your fiancée?" ”
I thought he was helping me anger Xue Zimo and Jiang Siyun, but I didn't expect him to chuckle, "You also think I'm joking?" ”
"Isn't it?" I suddenly sobered up, sat up straight, and looked at him in a daze.
At this moment, he smiled and stared at me seriously before saying, "Do you think I helped you back then and want to repay the favor?" ”
"yes." I nodded, in the affirmative.
"Then I need you to do me a favor, would you like to?" He leaned over and his breath fell on my face, tickling.
Of course I would be willing to think that he was the one who saved my life, so I nodded without thinking, "Of course I do." ”
Ling Yuqian's eyes fell on the car window, his deep eyes seemed to be recalling something, he said: "The Ling family is actually not only my son, in addition to the younger sister and I have two younger brothers, but they have no intention of taking over the family's business, they spend all day drinking, and then grandpa was angry with them." He looked at me and continued, "Originally, I didn't plan to get married in this life, but my grandfather's illness is getting worse and worse, and his only wish is to want me to get married. I didn't believe in other women, so I chose you. ”
I don't know if it's an honor or a helplessness, marrying Ling Yuqian should be the wish of many women, but it doesn't matter to me.
"Mr. Ling, I'm sorry, I'm afraid I can't promise you this." I was miserable about my marriage to Xue Zimo, and I didn't want to go through it a second time at all. Although it was a deal with Ling Yuqian, he still didn't dare to touch it easily.
