Tsk tsk, today is another day of good deeds!
Wen Rong was quite pleased. She not only got rid of Li Ruan, but also made two preparations. She recorded the entire meeting between the two of them and sent it to her son as soon as Li Ruan left.
Well, she was very considerate and gave her son time to listen to the recording before making the call.
Then, she received a rare phone call from her son.
"Mom, who told you to go find Li Ruan?"
Wen Rong was initially quite happy, but after being questioned by her son, she immediately clutched her chest. "Is that the point? The point is that she took my money and promised to break up with you."
She's a vain and greedy woman, see clearly!
Inside the black Rolls-Royce, Xi Leng irritably tugged at his tie.
He just had a meeting and couldn't go to the airport to pick up that girl, and as a result, his mother pulled this stunt on him.
She was already angry with him because of his second personality's probing, and now her mother has used 600 million to make Li Ruan leave him. Can that girl still forgive him?
"Mom, I'm twenty-eight, not eight! I know what I should and shouldn't do, so you don't need to worry about me."
Furthermore, I'll say it again: regardless of whether Li Ruan and I separate or stay together, I will never adopt someone else's child.
Please, Ms. Wen, refrain from interfering in my affairs in the future. Thank you.
The call ended.
"President, Miss Li and Madam met at the coffee shop in front of her apartment complex. Miss Li has already gone home."
Xi Leng: "Go straight to her house, drive fast."
Just as Li Ruan finished preparing her dinner, the doorbell rang again.
Upon opening the door, wow, there he was, impeccably dressed in a suit, expressionless—wasn't that President Xi?
She had originally intended to close the door, but considering that his mother had just given her 600 million yuan, she still asked, "Mr. Xi, it's been a long time. Is there something you need?"
Xi Leng stepped forward, pushed open the door, and went straight into the room, while Xi Si automatically stayed outside to keep watch.
Seeing that Xi Leng was already sitting on her sofa, Li Ruan went straight into the house, sorted out the things Xi Leng had given her, and brought them to the living room. "These are the things you gave me before. There was also a card, which was placed in the bedside table of your villa. I didn't touch it."
"The contract is void, and our relationship ends here, Mr. Xi. Goodbye."
Xi Leng always thought he was a cold-hearted person who didn't even have deep feelings for his own parents, and that he would never fall in love with anyone else. But he never expected that he would suffer such a big setback with Li Ruan.
He had fallen for the young woman in front of him, but now she was saying she wanted to leave him.
"I disagree." You brat, do you really think you can just abandon him after tearing up the contract?
Li Ruan chuckled softly, her beautiful face radiant and captivating. "Mr. Xi, have you fallen for me?"
Xi Leng looked at Li Ruan with a deep gaze, "Yes." There was no point in hiding it, so he simply admitted it.
"But I don't like Mr. Xi!"
"...I know you said that on purpose because my mother came to see you. Don't worry, my family can't control my decisions."
Li Ruan raised her hand to interrupt him, "Those things have nothing to do with me. We were only together because of a contract. Now that the contract is over, the relationship is naturally over."
Xi Leng understood what Li Ruan meant, but he wished he didn't!
In more than three months, she had never liked him at all?
He doesn't believe it!
A hint of sadness suddenly appeared in his eyes—no, a great deal of sadness. "You...did you never have even the slightest bit of affection for me from beginning to end?"
Li Ruan said firmly, "No! Well, I can't say no. The first time we slept together, I thought you were perfect in every way, and I did have the idea of developing a relationship with you, but you quickly made me realize the reality."
Xi Leng's eyes lit up when he heard the first half of the sentence, and he immediately pressed for details when he heard the second half.
"I was so captivated by your beauty that I couldn't help but call you 'husband,' but what did you say back then?"
You said you should be addressed as President Xi or Mr. Xi.
Xi Leng: Is that why?
No wonder, no wonder from that day on, no matter how passionate or intimate their relationship was, she always addressed him as Mr. Xi, or occasionally President Xi. It was all his own doing!
“I can explain, back then I…”
"No need to explain, there's no need. I'm a very stubborn person, and I never change my mind once I've made a decision."
Besides, I've slept with your 'brother,' you know. I have to say, your whole family seems to share the same idea: everyone who gets close to you is after your money. So, having received the money from your mother, I'm not bothering you anymore. You have to keep your word, right?
Xi Leng: "You know perfectly well that it has always been me."
That little liar, she's so shrewd, she clearly knew all along that they were the same person and that he was already dead, so how could he sleep with her?
Li Ruan raised an eyebrow: "So what? Even your second personality thinks I'm only with you for money, doesn't that prove your intentions even more?"
Now that I've returned your things, don't accuse me of taking your money. I admit I did take money from your mother, but I was afraid she would harm my family if I didn't accept it, so I took it.
Xi Leng tried his best to remain calm: "Li Ruan, do you know? Every word you say is stabbing my heart."
"Oh, and then what? Anyway, you have money, you can find a few more mistresses. Out with the old, in with the new, you should be happy!"
Yes, you must have been too excited, which is why your heart started acting up.
Just relax!
Xi Leng was furious at Li Ruan's sarcastic remarks. He was afraid that if he didn't leave soon, he would explode with anger, so he left.
As for the two file folders that Li Ruan had placed on the table, he didn't take them.
Li Ruan wasn't short of money, so she naturally had to return what that scoundrel had given her. She simply called a courier to pick up the package and would deliver it to his company the next day.
When Xi Si saw that the young master's expression was not right when he came out, he wisely did not dare to make a sound.
It was clear that the two had broken up, and I felt uneasy. I didn't dare to speak, and I didn't even dare to breathe loudly.
"Back to the villa."
"Yes, young master." He slammed on the gas pedal and quickly drove the person home, thus completing his task for the day.
The car sped back to the villa.
Xi Leng went straight to the bedroom where the two had only stayed once, and sure enough, he found the card that had been used to transfer money to Li Ruan in the bedside table.
He even checked his balance on his phone. They signed the contract in July and have been together for more than three months, but he has already made four payments to her. Not only has the money in her card not decreased, but he has also accrued interest.
His mood became even more irritable. This irritability reached its peak the next afternoon when he received Li Ruan's package and was told that the nanny van he had bought for Li Ruan was parked in the underground parking lot. It seemed that Li Ruan was really going to cut ties with him.
