Love Burns Out: Mr. Li Loves Me
Chapter 273 Trading
When the engine started, Wen Rong slowly opened his eyes. There were faint red bloodshot in his eyes, and it was obvious that he had not slept all night.
"Baby, there are still two months left...can we hold on a little longer?"
Wen Rong didn't want to see him again.
She felt so uncomfortable that she couldn't sleep at all. It was like one of the countless nights before her rebirth. She couldn't face herself like this.
She also couldn't digest what Chu Yan said. She said that Li Zhengting had fallen in love with her a long time ago, but love is not like that. The ability to love is innate. Even if you don't have it, you will automatically have this ability when you see that you really like someone.
Love is instinctive and does not need to be learned, so Li Zhengting has no idea what love is. He only knows how to rob and oppress her arbitrarily and force her in a domineering way. He only knows how to control her by hurting the people she cares about.
From that day on, the two never met again, but Wen Rong could always see him on TV, in financial interviews, or in some current political news.
Li Zhengting was as dignified and handsome as usual, with the demeanor of a gentleman leader.
Apart from the existence of that marriage certificate, there seemed to be no other relationship between the two.
In the late stage of pregnancy, Wen Rong was less afraid of morning sickness and even her appetite improved. Feng Wanhe happened to ask her out, and the two of them agreed to meet at Banshan Restaurant.
As soon as Feng Wanhe saw Wen Rong, she took her hand and spun around for several circles, with indescribable envy in her eyes, "I really envy you. You're going to have a cute baby at such a young age. Unlike me! I'm nearly 30 years old and still don't have a partner~"
Wen Rong smiled and said, "No way, you are only 26 years old, still very young, no rush..."
Feng Wanhe ordered a cup of hot milk for Wen Rong and a cup of hot cocoa for herself.
"Wenwen, please don't think I'm gossiping! What's going on between you and Li Zhengting? Yesterday, at a business event I attended, he actually brought someone from his circle with him. When a reporter asked about their relationship, he didn't say anything. Instead, the little celebrity who played the piano shyly denied it, saying that there was no relationship between the two of them!"
Who believes it?
Wen Rong held the cup, and the temperature of the milk gradually passed through the porcelain to her palm, dispelling the chill.
Realizing Wen Rong's silence, Feng Wanhe blamed herself for being too talkative. Pregnant women would hate to hear news about their husbands cheating on them...
Just then, there was a commotion at the entrance of the restaurant on the second floor, and the restaurant manager came out in person to greet the guests.
Feng Wanhe looked in the direction of the voice and was completely stunned! There were four people in the group, two men and two women. One pair was the protagonist she had just mentioned, and the other pair... She knew the woman, a first-tier actress, and the man was Chu Xiuyan.
Because he was facing away from her, Wen Rong didn’t see it at first.
But even though it was just her back, Li Zhengting recognized her at the first sight.
"Four of you, please."
Hearing this voice, Wen Rong's heart trembled, and the hand holding the mug tightened unconsciously.
But she didn't look back, instead she shifted her gaze to the maple leaf mountain view outside the window.
Whether intentionally or not, the restaurant manager arranged a seat for Li Zhengting and his friends just diagonally in front of Wen Rong and her friends' table.
So as long as Wen Rong looked away from the window, she could see the handsome men and beautiful women five meters away, dining elegantly and leisurely.
Feng Wanhe felt that she must not have checked the almanac before going out today, otherwise how could it be such a coincidence?
Wen Rong picked up the hot milk and took a sip. The warmth flowed into her stomach and the tense feeling was relieved a lot.
When she put down the cup, the tall figure stood up and walked towards her.
The man rested one hand on the dining table, with a full sense of involvement, and said with a handsome and charming smile - "Ms. Feng, congratulations on the release of your new movie. I hope that Li Group can cooperate with Miss Feng in the future."
As he spoke, Li Zhengting handed Feng Wanhe a gold-plated business card. Feng Wanhe was completely confused and she glanced at Wen Rong opposite her.
Somehow, Wen Rong raised her eyes and looked at Li Zhengting, and what she saw was that handsome face without a single flaw.
It seems that the operation must have been very successful, and the hideous scar was removed without any trace.
It was as if it had never existed.
Feng Wanhe took the business card and said it was an honor.
The whole process took no more than three minutes, and Li Zhengting turned around and left.
Feng Wanhe breathed a sigh of relief and did not take the hot business card. Instead, she pushed it towards Wen Rong.
"Li Zhengting, the scar on his face is not ugly at all. On the contrary, it makes him look a bit damaged. He is handsome like a demon. He is much more handsome than the top actors who are my co-stars in the same drama."
However, given his status as a frequent visitor to the financial news pages, it is indeed best to be clean.
The mug in his hand gradually turned cold, and Wen Rong let go of it, "Let's go..."
Feng Wanhe nodded. She really didn’t want to stay here any longer, otherwise Chu Xiuyan’s eyes would turn into two ice knives when he looked at her!
When it was time to pay the bill, the restaurant staff took out a packaged Earl Grey Mille-feuille and handed it to Wen Rong.
Wen Rong was stunned, "I don't think I ordered any dessert."
The restaurant staff hesitated for a while, then smiled and said, "Oh, it's like this... Miss Wen is a VVIP member of our restaurant, so we prepared one for you according to your usual taste."
Wen Rong didn't think too much about it. He thanked her and took the cake.
After leaving the door of Banshan Restaurant, Wen Rong said goodbye to Feng Wanhe and parted ways. Wen Rong was waiting on the roadside with the cake in his hand. A driver was driving slowly towards them not far away.
After learning the painful lesson in his previous life, Wen Rong would be extremely careful whenever he went out, especially when it came to roads, for which he had a deep fear.
Sitting by the window on the second floor of the restaurant, the man's eyes were fixed on Wen Rong's slender figure.
Chu Xiuyan on the opposite side saw that he looked like he had lost two and a half of his three souls, and coughed lightly.
Li Zhengting came back to his senses, and the charming little singer beside him said in an unusually sweet voice, "Mr. Li, why hasn't the Earl Grey Thousand Layer Tea you ordered just now been served yet?"
Li Zhengting's face was expressionless, and his tone was as cold as ice: "That's not yours."
Just as the driver opened the door for Wen Rong, her cell phone rang, and the location shown was European country Y.
The only friend she knew in Country Y was Qi Ran. Although Ranran always contacted her through WeChat, she still pressed the answer button.
"Hello."
There was silence on the other end of the phone for two seconds, and then an extremely familiar voice was heard.
“Fight…”
thump—
Hearing this call, Wen Rong dropped the cake in her hand. Her lips trembled as she asked tentatively, "Brother Huai Nian?"
Ying Huainian smiled with relief, his tone very gentle: "Dai Da, it's my brother."
For a moment, the emotions that had been accumulating in Wen Rong's heart for a long time burst out at this moment, and she could no longer control herself and started crying with her hands covering her mouth.
When Ying Huainian heard her crying, his heart ached so much that his tone was filled with worry. "Be good and stop crying, okay?"
With Ying Huainian's patient comfort, she gradually stopped crying, but she still couldn't help sobbing.
"Brother Huai Nian, how are you? Are you okay?"
As early as when Wen Rong started to feel unwell, Li Zhengting pushed away his chair and strode out of the restaurant. Looking at his appearance, among the people sitting there, only Chu Xiuyan had an expression of "I knew it" on his face.
But just as he rushed out of the door, when he heard the voice of "Brother Huai Nian", his footsteps stopped in place as if under a spell.
Wen Rong was so focused on the phone call with Ying Huainian that she didn't notice that someone was chasing after her.
Just like that, Wen Rong got in the car, and the car slowly drove away from the spot, going farther and farther away...
The chill of late autumn brought with it a cold wind, blowing on Li Zhengting's face and heart.
…………
"The baby is now more than seven months old. Dada, how are you doing? Have you been doing well during the time I was away?"
The only person Ying Huainian cares about is Wen Rong.
"I'm fine, the baby is very well behaved, and the due date is in two months. I estimate that it will be born just in time for the first snow."
What happened next was a matter of fate, and this time it was the first snow in the North City.
Ying Huainian relaxed his brows and was about to say something when the corner of his clothes was gently shaken.
He followed the line of sight and met a pair of clear brown pupils.
Wen Rong noticed Ying Huainian's silence and thought he was busy, so he said, "Brother Huainian, if you are busy, we can talk another day."
Ying Huainian retracted his gaze, his voice as gentle as ever, "Da Da, don't worry, it won't be long before I can completely rescue you from that beast."
At this point, Wen Rong actually had a premonition that Li Zhengting no longer had the morbid and paranoid possessiveness towards her that he did before, and she might not have to run away from now on.
Even if they stayed in North City forever, the two of them would never have any intersection again.
But Ying Huainian's words were always for her own good, so Wen Rong, who knew nothing about it, could only respond obediently: "Well, I believe your brother!"
After hanging up the phone, Wen Rong's originally depressed mood was relieved a lot.
As long as the family and friends she cares about are safe and sound, she will be satisfied.
Y country Luncheng.
Li Chenghuan sat on the soft carpeted floor, his beautiful eyes staring at the man standing by the window.
She slowly lowered her head and twirled her fingers nervously, like a child who had done something wrong.
After thinking about it, she stood up and walked behind the man, stretched out her small hand and held the man's big hand. His palm was warm, and she had always liked and been attached to it.
“Don’t be… angry…”
Because she seldom speaks, her voice is tense, but still pleasant to hear, and as cautious as a kitten.
Ying Huainian turned around and looked at her face to face.
The girl then added to what she had just said: "Don't be angry, okay..."
Li Chenghuan thought he was angry because he had just disturbed him while he was on the phone.
In her simple understanding, angry people need to be coaxed.
So now she wanted to coax him.
Ying Huainian looked at her for a long time before he slowly smiled, curled his lips and said, "I'm not angry, you don't need to be nervous."
With just this smile, Li Chenghuan's tense mood instantly disappeared, and she also imitated the man and wanted to smile for him.
But when she tried to pull the corner of her lips, she saw his dark eyes. He always looked at her like this every time he was unhappy.
Li Chenghuan quickly put away her smile. Perhaps it was because she didn't look good when she smiled...
Thinking of this, she let go of his hand in frustration, sat back on the carpet, picked up a pair of scissors, and was about to hit him in the face!
Ying Huainian was horrified, and immediately strode up to her. Without thinking, he grabbed the scissors with his disabled right hand!
Fortunately, it was just an ordinary pair of scissors, not sharp, and his hand was not injured any further.
But Ying Huainian still had a dark face, and the inexplicable fear in his heart made him upset! His tone also became bad: "Li Chenghuan!"
The girl was frightened out of her wits by the stern roar, but the only person she could rely on was the person in front of her. She subconsciously opened her arms and threw herself into his arms!
Perhaps it was because some bad memories were touched upon, Li Chenghuan's whole body was shaking.
"Sorry……"
Listening to her apology, Ying Huainian calmed down, but still asked her in an aggressive tone, "What are you doing with the scissors?"
Li Chenghuan took a long time to react and understood what the man meant, but was still unwilling to come out of his arms. Like a little quail, he pointed at the mirror next to him and then at his hair.
Ying Huainian understood what she meant instantly. It turned out...she wanted to cut her own hair.
Looking at her messy and uneven hair, she looked a little slovenly. It was really time for some repair.
In fact, since the first time I met Li Chenghuan, her hairstyle has always been like this, with uneven lengths. However, because it was short hair, it was not very noticeable. But now that it has grown a little longer, it is a bit unsightly.
Ying Huainian pushed the little man in his arms away a little, looked him up and down carefully for a while, and then picked up the scissors with a cold face...
"Close your eyes!"
…………
Twenty minutes later.
Ying Huainian put down the scissors and threw the mirror into Li Chenghuan's hand.
Cheng Huan then opened her eyes and obediently raised the mirror. When she saw herself in the mirror, she was stunned for a long time.
The originally uneven short hair was trimmed neatly, just below the ears, and the bangs on the forehead were also trimmed beautifully, just enough to reveal her delicate and beautiful eyebrows.
Ying Huainian looked at her for a long time without any reaction. When she reacted, his eyes turned red like a little white rabbit. He thought she didn't like it, so he asked coldly, "Why, are you dissatisfied?"
Cheng Huan put down the mirror, her eyes misty, she exhaled heavily, and for the first time, she bravely approached him, put her hands on Ying Huainian's shoulders, and pressed her pink and slightly cool lips against his like a sacrifice...
She was very inexperienced and had almost no skills. She just recalled how he had done it to her before.
If this kind of thing would make him feel comfortable, she just wanted to make him happy too...
This is an instinct. Cheng Huan has no sense of shame, but when she feels the clean and pleasant scent of a man, she feels her cheeks getting hot and her heartbeat quickens.
Ying Huainian hesitated for less than two seconds before pressing the back of Cheng Huan's neck, taking back the initiative and deepening the kiss...
Throughout the whole process, Cheng Huan cooperated with him very well, almost to the point of getting whatever he wanted.
Ying Huainian pinched her chin with his right hand. Seeing that she was already unconscious, he increased his strength.
"Li Chenghuan, you asked for this!"
But what responded to him was the girl's even more gentle obsession and tolerance.
"No one... has ever cut my hair except my father..."
Cheng Huan curved his eyes, bit his fingers and spoke softly.
But after her father passed away, no one took care of Chenghuan's appearance. She didn't know how to braid her hair nicely, so she could only keep her hair short. When it grew longer, she would cut it herself with scissors, so every time she cut her hair, she looked like a sloppy, shaggy puppy.
