C30 (2/2)

”I'm not done yet.” If there were no accidents, he would have to stay up all night to finish what he had to do.

Leng Lie did not say anything. After keeping the things inside the computer, he put on the computer and walked out.

She put on her clothes in a fluster and chased after him with her high heels.

”Leng Lie, wait for me …”

The Leng Clan.

”Leng Lie, why are you in the company?” When Lady Xu came out from her shower, she suddenly thought of this question.

Leng Lie did not answer and instead went to the window to smoke.

He didn't know what was wrong with him, he just couldn't see her, and he couldn't sleep soundly.

Seeing Leng Lie smoking, Lady Xu did not dare to disturb him. If he lost his temper, he wouldn't be able to resist.

Obediently taking off her shoes, Lady Xu took the quilt and laid down on the bed.

It was a very tiring day, and not long after, the person on the bed fell into a deep sleep.

Leng Lie only turned his head around when he could not hear anything. He looked at Lady Xu and felt a little odd.

He walked towards Lady Xu. Looking at her charming face, he unconsciously touched it.

This was a face that was so similar to that person!

Her deep eyes were fixated on her beautiful face, but she seemed to be looking at someone through Lady Xu. Gradually, the man in his heart and Lady Xu seemed to have merged.

A change appeared in her cold and fierce eyes. Unwillingness and anger gathered in her heart, while her hand tightened around Lady Xu's.

When she woke up in the morning, her hands hurt, though she didn't know why it hurt so much.

She turned around and saw Leng Lie.

The man's side was simply perfect. One thing that Lady Xu had to admit was that Leng Lie was truly a handsome man. Sometimes, when he was standing in the distance, people would think that he was a painting.

While he was lost in thought, the man suddenly opened his eyes.

Lady Xu smiled awkwardly and turned around guiltily. With his back facing the cold woman, his little face was scrunched up.

The man's charming lips curled up into a smile, intending to tease her.

He reached out his hand and grasped the soft and tender hand. ”Shy?”

”It's not good to be like this so early in the morning,” Lady Xu said with a blush on her cheeks.

”I think so.” Leng Lie broke his neck, deliberately teasing Lady Xu. ”I remember that this place is very sensitive. Didn't you like it very much yesterday? ”

Lady Xu, ”...”

The 36th plan was to leave first, not continue to argue with Leng Lie. Taking advantage of the fact that the man wasn't paying attention, Lady Xu quickly got off the bed.

Arriving at the office, Leng Lie was about to stop the car when Lady Xu left first.

He saw Leng Yuan, who was dressed in a suit. He was tall and sturdy with an imposing air.

With a gentle smile on his lips, he greeted Lady Xu. ”Sister-in-law, your complexion is getting better and better.”

Lady Xu smiled embarrassedly as she replied, ”After work, the food supply has gotten bigger and bigger. It's because I'm wearing tight clothes.”

”It's fine. This looks pretty good. It's very beautiful.”

The two of them looked at each other and smiled. Suddenly, Leng Lie's footsteps froze.

He frowned as he cast a stern gaze towards Lady Xu. She was originally smiling, but when she felt the change in his gaze, the corners of her lips curled up slightly and she stopped smiling.

”Leng Yuan, let sister-in-law go up first.”

Leng Yuan raised his eyes and saw Leng Lie just in time.

”Sister-in-law, I'll listen to you.”

Hearing these words, Lady Xu seemed to have been pardoned as she walked away quickly.

Leng Yuan walked toward Leng Lie and greeted him, ”Brother.”

Leng Lie nodded his head, ”Mhm.”

Without further words, the two walked away in silence.

The sound of her heart beating caused her to feel extremely uncomfortable.

His cold gaze was as if he wanted to kill someone.

Men are always like this. He can reject you, but not other men. This kind of mentality was not love, but abnormal possessiveness.

”Lady Xu.”

Just as he was deep in thought, the cold voice bellowed furiously.

Lady Xu tried her best to remain calm and not provoke the cold.

”CEO, I'm here.”

Leng Lie did not say anything further. He went forward and grabbed Lady Xu's neck before asking viciously, ”Did you see any man talking and laughing? Are all women of lowly birth so lacking in love? ”

These words were like a needle, causing Lady Xu to suddenly feel pain.

”Speak!”

Lady Xu's eyes reddened. ”You are right. I am a woman of humble birth.”

Leng Lie flew into a rage. He pushed Lady Xu away and left her with the words, ”You are dirty!”

Lady Xu's nose was sour and her face was pale without a trace of blood. She crouched on the ground, too sad to be herself, covered her face with her hands, and began to sob.

Why did he want to hurt her so much?

As his wife, she was legal even if she wasn't officially married. When this sister-in-law saw her young uncle, she greeted him with such respect.

She came from a humble background, but she also had her own dignity.

He always trampled her dignity to the ground.

He had no choice but to compromise everything.

She had already lowered her body to the ground. Why did he still want to step on her?

In the midst of her tears, a warm hand suddenly extended towards Lady Xu. As Lady Xu looked up, only tears remained on her cheeks.

His eyes, which had been washed away by the tears, became even brighter.

The dark pupils reflected Leng Yuan's face, which was somewhat similar to Leng Lie's.

Lady Xu's heart tightened and she subconsciously tried to avoid Leng Yuan.

When she stepped back, Leng Yuan suddenly felt that something was wrong.

”Sister-in-law, what's wrong?”
