Li Lingyang was wearing a dark blue suit with a white shirt underneath. There was not a single wrinkle on the suit, as if it had been ironed at all times. His tall body was tightly wrapped, making him look even taller and more upright. Especially when he stood silently, he had an air of dignity all over his body, and he was the focus of the crowd.
Standing next to him was Shen Jiangqing, who was dressed very prettyly in a bright red dress. The two of them looked like a perfect match.
The manager's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and he apologized repeatedly, "I'm sorry, Miss Shen, no one answered the phone when we called you before, so we thought you weren't coming, so..."
"You can call a few more times, what if I didn't see it?" Shen Jiangqing finished bombarding the manager, then covered his chest and said to Li Lingyang, "I just finished the examination and I really can't walk anymore."
Li Lingyang looked at her slightly pale face, impatience flashing in his dark pupils. He said to the manager, "I'll give you ten minutes. Make room for me."
When Ning Yichu heard this, she felt sick to her stomach when she thought about how he had forced a kiss on her not long ago.
Mo Boyu felt her grip on the spoon tighten, and his brows furrowed slightly.
Just as the manager was busy saying he was going to make room, Mo Boyu suddenly stood up, a faint smile on his handsome face, "Boss Li, what a coincidence, you're here for dinner too?"
Li Lingyang instantly noticed Ning Yichu who was sitting opposite Mo Boyu. His eyes darkened and he looked straight at her.
His gaze was just like his personality, cold, sharp, and full of strength. Ning Yichu pretended to fiddle with the spoon and not look at him, but the coldness was always like a thorn in his back.
Shen Jiangqing was still standing beside him, and he was still staring at him?
After a while, Ning Yichu finally felt that the man had shifted his gaze away. He slowly raised his head and saw Li Lingyang and Mo Boyu greeting him indifferently.
"Hello, Mr. Mo."
The Arctic Group has recently become famous in the imperial capital and has also launched a series of jewelry that is very popular among wealthy ladies. They had just met at a business summit not long ago.
Shen Jiangqing didn't expect that the CEO of Beiji was so young and handsome, and was involved with Ning Yichu.
"I guess this must be Mrs. Li?" Mo Boyu smiled friendly. "Nice to meet you. Hello."
Shen Jiangqing dreamed of hearing someone call her Mrs. Li. A smile crept onto her cheeks, "Hello, President Mo!"
Mo Boyu said calmly, "The theme of Arctic Group's new products for next season happens to be eternal love. Mr. Li and Mrs. Li are so loving. If they can wear a set of custom jewelry with love as the theme, it will definitely be the icing on the cake."
Chen Jiangqing raised the corners of her mouth in a smug smile and said coquettishly, "I've heard that Arctic jewelry is world-class. Ah Ling, shall we go get a custom set?"
Li Lingyang narrowed his cold eyes and glanced at Ning Yichu through the air without comment.
Ning Yichu still pretended not to see it.
Mo Boyu asked sincerely, "By the way, when did you two get married? Our designer Ning is best at carving special anniversaries into his works, making them last forever."
The smile on Shen Jiangqing's face suddenly froze. "Forget it, no need to trouble Mr. Mo."
Mo Boyu, "Are you really not going to reconsider? This is the jade carver M I hired from abroad. Many people internationally would spend a fortune but still can't hire her."
"A Ling, I suddenly want to eat the Cantonese food from the restaurant next door. Let's go."
Li Lingyang's obsidian eyes narrowed slightly, breaking his surface of calmness. "I'm not married yet, so I don't need a jade carver who specializes in anniversary carvings. I appreciate Mr. Mo's kindness."
Mo Boyu rubbed his chin. "I heard that Mr. Li divorced his original wife for this Miss Shen. How come they haven't remarried after so long? Did something go wrong in their relationship?"
Li Lingyang heard the mockery in his tone and the pressure on his body dropped. "There's no need to explain my personal affairs to President Mo."
Ning Yichu felt a little uncomfortable after hearing this. He slowly wiped the corner of his mouth and stood up gracefully. "Mr. Mo, the air here is not very good. Let's eat somewhere else."
Mo Boyu calmly said goodbye to Li Lingyang and the others, then left with Ning Yichu, leaving Li Lingyang staring at their backs as they left.
Shen Jiangqing realized that he had been set up by Mo Boyu. With a roll of his eyes, he provoked, "This Mr. Mo is really going too far. He wants to help Yi Chu, but he doesn't need to ridicule us in public, right?"
Li Lingyang coldly shook off her arm and said, "Don't you like this restaurant? Now that the seat is free, take your time to eat."
Shen Jiangqing saw that he was about to leave and hurriedly pulled his wrist, "What about you?"
"I still have things to do at the company. Assistant Xu will take you back after dinner." Li Lingyang said this and left without looking back.
In the blink of an eye, Shen Jiangqing was left there, and a look of resentment gradually appeared in her eyes.
Why is Ning Yichu so lucky?
After divorcing Li Lingyang, she was able to meet such an outstanding man like Mo Boyu!
…
After Ning Yichu left the restaurant, she went directly to a mushroom soup hotpot across the street. She ordered the meal and added more dishes for Mo Boyu as if nothing had happened.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Mo. I just suddenly thought a change of scenery might be better, so I made the decision without authorization."
Mo Boyu knew what was going on and agreed, "I also think changing restaurants is much better. Many people in the capital know that Li Lingyang abandoned his ex-wife for his mistress. It's ridiculous. The Li family is known for their strict family traditions."
His tone was very sincere, and his look of standing up for justice made Ning Yichu feel indescribably warm in his heart.
"I didn't realize you were so righteous, Mr. Mo. Many men wouldn't think this was a big deal."
"Maybe I'm not like many men. If I had someone I loved, I would treasure her like a jewel and never let her get hurt."
"Then I wish you can meet your beloved one as soon as possible." Ning Yichu smiled. There was no love between her and Li Lingyang when they got married, so it was understandable that they ended up like this.
A very faint smile appeared on the corner of Mo Boyu's mouth, and there was a certain lightness in his expression that he was determined to win. "I'll lend you my blessing."
"The dishes are all here, come and eat. You need to calm down for a while before you can go back to work."
"As you say, Doctor Ning."
"Haha, when you call me like that, I feel like I'm really a doctor."
Mo Boyu rubbed his chin pretentiously. "I imagined you wearing a white coat, a surgical cap, and a scalpel. You must look very capable and dashing."
"I almost believed what you said, but what I'm holding now is not a scalpel, but a carving knife."
The mushroom soup tasted pretty good and Mo Boyu ate quite a bit.
When it was time to pay, Ning Yichu rushed to pay, but Mo Boyu, taking advantage of his height and long legs, handed over the card first. "I don't have the habit of letting women pay. It's very rude in Europe."
Ning Yichu didn't compete with him anymore, and just thought to himself that he should work harder!
After eating a little too much, the two of them walked back to the company.
It was lunchtime, and in order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, Ning Yichu used the excuse of going to the bank to withdraw money and separated from Mo Boyu early at the intersection.
What the two of them didn't know was that on the street not far away, a black Maybach followed them all the way.
