Love Burns Out: Mr. Li Loves Me

Chapter 268 Charity Dinner 1

The day of the charity dinner.

Secretary Liu followed the driver to the Elk Manor early in the morning and waited. When she thought of the military order that President Li had forced upon her, she still felt a lingering fear!

Fortunately, Wen Rong was a soft-hearted and gentle person, and he helped her out of the predicament.

In fact, Secretary Liu knew that Wen Rong might not want to attend the dinner, but it was not a solution for the two of them to continue like this. President Li had been staying in the company for so many days, and the whole company had already been in an uproar.

Some unmarried female employees always find various excuses, take advantage of loopholes at work, and try their best to run to the top-floor office!

Today it is a loving bento, and tomorrow it will be a private dessert. God knows that those things actually went into her and Special Assistant Xu’s stomachs, and they are tired of eating them.

There is another particularly important point. Mr. Li is a man with normal needs, whether in terms of physical or emotional values. If they are not satisfied for a long time, who can guarantee that he will remain pure and desireless?

After all, no man who is extremely powerful and has neither money nor power will stay stagnant forever for the sake of a woman.

Wen Rong occupies 100% of President Li’s love, but the proportion of love in Li Zhengting’s heart is probably debatable.

Moreover, sincerity changes rapidly.

Always is an adverb of degree, not an attributive of time.

What's more, Wen Rong is pregnant now, and the child also needs a father. If President Li really turns his heart cold and lets Wen Rong go, it means that all the resources that Wen Rong's child deserves in the future will be taken away by the next woman and child. It is really not a worthwhile deal.

Maybe when the little one grows up, considering how busy Mr. Li is, he might not be able to accompany the little one to the playground or attend a parent-teacher meeting...

"Secretary Liu, thank you for coming here in person."

A gentle voice sounded, and Secretary Liu came back to her senses. Ye Birou filled her a glass of Yuqian Longjing tea and spoke to her with a smile.

"Mrs. Wen, you are too polite. These are all my responsibilities."

As the two were talking, Wen Rong walked down the stairs. As soon as Secretary Liu raised his eyes, he was stunned!

Even though I've seen Wen Rong dressed up many times, I'm still not completely desensitized to it.

Secretary Liu stepped forward and said with a smile, "Madam, the car is ready."

Wen Rong then curled the corners of his mouth and said, "Let's go."

"Yes, go early and come back early. Secretary Liu, please take good care of me and help me." Ye Birou reminded him worriedly, wishing she could go with him.

Secretary Liu waved his hand generously, "Don't worry, Madam Wen, Madam Li will also be there. With her in charge, Madam will not be tired."

After getting in the car, Wen Rong looked at the route and wondered, "Aren't we going directly to the banquet?"

Secretary Liu: "Oh... well, Mr. Li asked me to take my wife to the company first, and then he will take you to the dinner."

After saying that, Secretary Liu observed Wen Rong's expression without leaving a trace. Unfortunately... her stunningly beautiful face was like a flower covered in a vacuum crystal container. Although beautiful, it did not have a trace of vitality.

Li Group.

Li Zhengting changed into a proper British three-piece suit and raised his wrist to check the time. At this time, Special Assistant Xu came in and informed him, "Mr. Li, your wife will be downstairs in about five minutes."

Hearing this, a crack appeared on Li Zhengting's usually cold and handsome face. He hummed lightly, then walked out of the office.

After entering the elevator, Special Assistant Xu followed in.

The exclusive elevator on the top floor was designed with mirrored interior walls in order to extend the visual effect indefinitely. When the elevator was almost halfway down, Li Zhengting couldn't help but turn his head to look at his own clothes and image.

After adjusting the position of his tie, Special Assistant Xu watched silently from the side.

In front of the lady, their President Li is no different from a peacock spreading its tail.

Ding--

Almost two minutes had passed after the elevator door opened. Thinking that he was about to meet Wen Rong, Li Zhengting couldn't help but quicken his pace.

But just as I walked out of the company's gate and came to the wide porch, I heard a series of footsteps behind me.

Assistant Xu looked back in confusion and frowned instantly!

The person who caught up was none other than Mu Rong, an intern from the president's office!

"Mr. Li, I'm sorry, I almost was late..."

After saying that, she blushed and stuck out her tongue playfully.

Mu Rong is young, pretty, and sweet-looking, with a very pure and sexy style. When she makes such an expression, she doesn't look artificial at all, but rather looks particularly lively and smart.

But what was unexpected was that Mu Rong was actually wearing a pure white little dress. The hem of the dress was fluffy and only reached above the knees, revealing a pair of slender legs, which was very eye-catching.

A special occasion, a special time, an inappropriate identity and dress, the appearance of Mu Rong becomes intriguing.

Li Zhengting only took a glance and then looked away.

Seeing the man's indifference, Mu Rong felt very disappointed, and this disappointment was written on her face without any concealment.

She walked in front of Li Zhengting in her high heels and asked with courage, "Boss Li, is this dress of mine not suitable?"

She had brought clothes with her on purpose today because she knew there would be a grand charity auction dinner tonight and all the upper-class people in North City would be present.

As Li Zhengting's secretary, she would naturally attend as well.

But what Mu Rong wants is not to be like a secretary, serving tea and water, but to be Mr. Li's female companion!

That's why she reluctantly sacrificed herself to dress up.

The little dress she was wearing was purchased in installments by overdrawing three credit cards, but she believed it was all worth it.

Because she felt that Mrs. Li, as a wife who had been through thick and thin together, was definitely not presentable enough, and President Li would definitely not go out in public with a pregnant woman. Men all want to save face, right?

So she dressed up nicely, thinking that President Li would definitely choose her as his female companion!

Li Zhengting lowered his head slightly, his eyes slowly falling on Mu Rong. This was the first time he looked at the girl in front of him so carefully.

After all, to be able to enter a place like Juese, one must be of a very high standard in terms of appearance, figure, and knowledge. To be fair, Mu Rong standing in front of him was indeed a leader.

Especially at this moment, her round almond-shaped eyes were wide open, staring straight at him, her eyes revealed a stubborn and unyielding light, and her face had a youthful and stubborn expression.

This look made Li Zhengting feel dazed - they were so similar...

It's exactly the same as the warmth of the past...

However, it is only similar.

Li Zhengting pondered in his heart.

Will Li Zhengting fall to the point where he needs to find a substitute or a stand-in?

Even if he and Wen Rong broke up completely, it would be impossible.

"It suits you very well." Li Zhengting praised softly.

With his sharp eyes, he could naturally see that the dress was worth a lot of money.

As soon as he finished speaking, he turned to Special Assistant Xu beside him and said, "Xu Yang, reimburse the bill for her dress."

Assistant Xu was extremely surprised, but he still didn't dare to express any opinion!

Mu Rong, who received unexpected rewards and praise, had a light of surprise in his eyes, shining as brightly as the bright stars in the night sky.

At this moment, her heart was filled with deep fascination and admiration for Li Zhengting!

She firmly believed it! There must be a place for her in Mr. Li's heart!

However, not far away, a Bentley SUV was approaching quietly.

Mu Rong watched helplessly as the man's gaze, which had been fixed on her, quickly shifted away and locked onto the back seat of the SUV, as if he wanted to peer through the car window to see a person who haunted him...

After the car stopped, Secretary Liu got out, opened the back door, and stepped out of the car wearing a pair of pearl gauze white flat shoes.

The moment she saw Wen Rong's face, Mu Rong was shocked as if struck by lightning. The gorgeous dress she was wearing, which she had bought with all her credit card limit, was like a crisp and loud slap in the face, slapping her hard on the face!

There is no one else except Mrs. Li who can be served so respectfully by Secretary Liu.

Is it possible...

The moment Wen Rong appeared, she was the only figure left in Li Zhengting's eyes.

Wen Rong was seen wearing a charming imperial-colored satin dress with a simple and elegant design. Every cut fit her skin perfectly, revealing her elegant and dignified temperament.

In addition, because she was pregnant, she did not wear any makeup, but her face was like a piece of pure white jade, full and smooth.

The woman in front of him was as real as if she had walked out of a dream. Li Zhengting couldn't help but feel a surge of heat in his heart, so he hurried down the stairs, wanting to get closer to her.

However, Wen Rong took a small step back, cleverly avoiding his approach.

Li Zhengting's steps came to an abrupt halt, as if someone had suddenly poured a basin of ice water over his head, completely extinguishing his surging enthusiasm.

"Aren't you going to attend a dinner party? Can you leave now?"

Wen Rong's voice was very soft, but Li Zhengting could hear it. Every word she said seemed to have nothing to do with him.

Even from the moment she got off the car until now, she hadn't even given him a straight look!

Even if he is an enemy, this is enough, right?

But what Li Zhengting didn't know was that Wen Rong had seen everything that had just happened long before he stopped the car.

Wen Rong naturally saw through Mu Rong's thoughts. She was young and had just graduated, so all her thoughts were written on her face, but Wen Rong didn't care.

As early as after she recovered her memory, she knew that she was in an irretrievable situation.

She only blamed herself for not being ruthless enough, for having too many things to consider, and for wanting to take everything into consideration.

But Li Zhengting was not among the things he took into consideration.

…………

Mu Rong's body was stiff. She originally wanted to sit in the same car with President Li, but when she looked up, she saw Secretary Liu's serious expression. Mu Rong was extremely embarrassed at this moment!

Secretary Liu came over in time and grabbed her arm, pulling her to another secretary assistant's special nanny car, "Remember your identity, don't worry about things you shouldn't worry about, otherwise, when the performance evaluation at the end of the internship is over, I can just let you pack up and get out!"

…………

The atmosphere at the scene was stagnant for a while. Assistant Xu reacted very quickly and hurriedly asked the driver to drive the car over.

She opened the car door and said to the man, "Mr. Li, Madam, the dinner will start at six o'clock. We can leave now."

But before Li Zhengting could speak, Wen Rong took the initiative to smile and said to Assistant Xu: "No need, I'll just take the car we came in, you guys can just take it easy..."

But before he could finish his words, Wen Rong was grabbed by the wrist and forcibly taken to the back seat of another Phantom car!

With a bang, the car door was slammed shut, blocking everyone's view!

After a brief moment of shock, Wen Rong quickly calmed down. She tried to reduce her presence and moved to a farther position on the other side.

But her intention was too obvious. Li Zhengting sneered and moved closer, forcing Wen Rong into a corner, leaving her with no room to retreat.

The unique scent of Li Zhengting unexpectedly broke into her nostrils, forcing her eyes to flee in panic.

But what surprised her was that this time, he didn't touch her, not even at all, even though he was already furious.

Li Zhengting lowered his eyes and stared at her. The person he had been thinking about day and night was right in front of him, but there was only repression and restraint in his eyes.

He knew that Wen Rong had already seen through Mu Rong's restless mind, but she didn't care at all, and even wanted to make room for Mu Rong.

Thinking of this, Li Zhengting felt as if he had swallowed a piece of burning charcoal on his chest, burning his internal organs.

If he hadn't asked Secretary Liu to invite her, Wen Rong probably wouldn't have appeared by his side today.

She could be so kind to a secretary, but she was so cold and heartless to him, unwilling to show any tenderness.

He was dissatisfied with her stubbornness, and also felt sorry for her eyes that were so silent and lifeless. It seemed that no matter what he did, he could not move her cold heart.

Since she didn't want to get close to him, why did he force her? This was a torture for both of them.

The atmosphere in the carriage was very depressing. It was quiet with only a few wisps of fragrance floating in the air. A deep and magnetic voice sounded: "How is Nian Nian these days?"

The sudden question disrupted Wen Rong's thoughts.

She was silent for a moment, then said softly, "Very good."

Li Zhengting turned his head to look at her. Her delicate neck was so slender and pitiful, but the bones were so hard.

…………

The dinner was held at a manor hotel owned by the Li family. After arriving, the driver opened the door on Li Zhengting's side first. When he wanted to go to the other side, he was stopped by the man.

The driver stepped aside and watched as Mr. Li walked around to the other side and opened the door for his wife.

After Wen Rong got off the car, Li Zhengting bent his arms. She hesitated for a second, and just when she was about to get on him, Li Zhengting instantly changed his position, put his long arms around her waist, and brought her into his arms.
