Chapter 34: Arrogance



Chapter 34 Arrogance

Before Qi Chong could say anything, Fu Zhiqing started shouting first.

Xie Qingcen's eyes suddenly turned cold.

Seeing this, Qi Chong quickly stepped forward and covered Fu Zhiqing's mouth with his hand, "No need, Mr. Xie. I know what to do."

Xie Qingcen nodded calmly, "Remember to pay the medical bills, I hate trouble!"

"It's Mr. Xie."

Qi Chong nodded and dragged Fu Zhiqing out of the store in a forceful manner.

Logically speaking, it was just a dislocated jaw, and Mr. Xie could have asked him to reconnect it for Fu Zhiqing. But judging from what Mr. Xie said just now, it seemed that he didn't want to interfere at all and just wanted Fu Zhiqing to learn a lesson!

Thinking of this, Qi Chong increased the strength of his men and showed no mercy to Fu Zhiqing.

After Qi Chong and the others left, Xie Qingcen withdrew his gaze indifferently. He came to Ruan Liuzheng, stretched out his long arm, casually embraced Ruan Liuzheng's slender waist, and then slowly took out a black card, "These are the two items, let's check out."

The clothes that Xiao Liuzheng picked for him personally, even if his mood was ruined by irrelevant people, it would not be in vain that Xiao Liuzheng put in all his efforts.

He must take it back and keep it carefully.

Ruan Liuzheng glanced at him coldly and warned him quietly, "Let go! You've crossed the line."

Xie Qingcen lowered his eyes with a faint smile on his lips.

The depth of his dark eyes was like a cold pond, so deep that it was invisible.

"Xiao Liu Zheng, are you sure you want to argue with me about these unnecessary issues now?"

Ruan Liuzheng suddenly remembered Fu Zhiqing's miserable condition just now. She pursed her lips and really didn't want to deal with Xie Qingcen anymore.

"Xie Qingcen, I'm tired. Please take me back."

On the way back, the car was still silent.

Ruan Liuzheng sat on one side, dozing off with his eyes closed.

She leaned back in her chair, her clear and beautiful features half hidden in the dark and half exposed in the light, revealing a hint of tenderness.

Her cold eyes were tightly closed, only her slender and thick eyelashes were trembling slightly, like a butterfly flapping its wings, revealing her emotions at the moment.

Ruan Liuzheng's brows were tightly knitted together, and the side of his face, which had just been slapped by Fu Zhiqing, was burning with pain.

She finally couldn't help but open her eyes and raised her eyebrows slightly.

I want to distract myself from the pain in my cheek for a while.

Ruan Liuzheng looked around and finally fixed his eyes on Xie Qingcen, who was working seriously with his head down.

Although he was facing her sideways, it was not difficult to see her handsomeness, especially her superior bone structure.

Because Xie Qingcen's slightly lowered eyes further highlighted his brow bones, high nose bridge, and slightly sharp jawline, it seemed as if this man was born to stay on a high platform and accept everyone's worship.

Ruan Liuzheng looked at him quietly, but her mind couldn't help but recall the scene when he had just dealt with Fu Zhiqing cruelly in the department store.

The Jade-faced Rakshasa was quite suitable for his appearance at that time.

The corners of Ruan Liuzheng's lips rose unconsciously, but then she thought of something and her lips straightened tightly.

She turned her head and saw her current appearance through the car window.

Suddenly I felt a little disgusting.

She was indecisive and hesitant. She shouldn't enjoy Xie Qingcen's protection on the one hand and reject him hypocritically on the other.

The hypocritical look is no different from Fu Yanci.

Ruan Liuzheng lowered her eyes slightly, and her soft palms tightened unconsciously.

But my heart seemed to be no longer under my control.

It seems to be divided into two halves, contradictory and mutually...

Ruan Liuzheng closed her eyes for a long time, then suddenly opened them, a hint of determination flashing in her cold eyes.

No matter what, she couldn't allow herself to fall any further.

"Xie Qingcen, you saw what just happened. Are you sure that your vision is correct?"

After thinking it through, Ruan Liuzheng spoke in a calm tone, but his eyes and brows revealed a sense of indifference.

Xie Qingcen's eyes paused, he put down the tablet, looked up at Ruan Liuzheng, and raised his eyebrows slightly, "Of course, and through this incident, I have become more determined."

"Ruan Liuzheng, in this world, you are the only one who deserves to stand by my side and grow old with me!"

Arrogant!

This was Ruan Liuzheng's first reaction when he heard this sentence.

But she soon accepted it.

Just based on the ruthless and merciless treatment Xie Qingcen had just shown towards Fu Zhiqing, it was clear that he did have the capital to be so arrogant.

She took a deep breath and looked at Xie Qingcen quietly, "Xie Qingcen, you are too confident. We haven't known each other for a long time, and you don't know what kind of person I am at all."

"I'm telling you the truth. Everything Fu Zhiqing said just now is true. I am a woman who relies on persistence to get to the top. A woman who can betray her friends and give up everything for love."

Ruan Liuzheng paused, eyelids slightly closed, "I am stupid, selfish, and cowardly. Xie Qingcen, are you sure I am still worthy of you when I am so unbearable?"

She had almost lowered herself to the mud.

Even if only half of what she said was true, she really didn't want to continue wavering like this.

It's so fake and hypocritical.

Xie Qingcen frowned, and stared at Ruan Liuzheng with his dark eyes for a long time. He suddenly laughed softly twice, "You really tried every possible way to make me give up. But...little Liuzheng, why do you have to belittle yourself!"

"I told you that you're the only one who can match me. No matter what, I won't let you go."

Seeing that he still insisted, Ruan Liuzheng suddenly felt extremely tired.

She spoke with a desperate attitude, "Xie Qingcen, don't you understand now? I don't want to go on like this. To tell you the truth, I'm not divorced yet."

"It's even a question whether my marriage can end successfully. On the one hand, I am entangled with my current husband, and on the other hand, I enjoy your pursuit. I am already indecisive. I am not what you think at all!"

Ruan Liuzheng stared at Xie Qingcen steadily, her lips tightly pursed.

She turned her eyes away, and even dared not look directly at Xie Qingcen.

However, Xie Qingcen was concerned about another issue.

He opened his lips, and a slight arc appeared at the corner of his lips. "Enjoy my pursuit? So, you are attracted to me?"

Ruan Liuzheng opened her eyes slightly, as if she couldn't believe it. After a while, she sighed deeply.

Forgive her, I really don’t know what to say.

Ruan Liuzheng closed his eyes and simply responded with silence.

Seeing this, Xie Qingcen raised his eyebrows slightly, and when his dark eyes fell on Ruan Liuzheng's swollen face, a dark light flashed in his eyes.

Suddenly, he stretched out his arms and pulled Ruan Liuzheng into his arms.

He held Ruan Liuzheng firmly on his legs without allowing any questioning, bent his fingers, frowned and touched Ruan Liuzheng's cheek.

Ruan Liuzheng bit her lip and looked at Xie Qingcen coldly with her clear eyes, full of displeasure.

She struggled hard, trying to push Xie Qingcen away.

Xie Qingcen frowned, he reached out and patted Ruan Liuzheng's moving buttocks, his tone slightly serious, "Don't move!"

Ruan Liuzheng's face suddenly turned red.

I feel angry and ashamed.

She looked at Xie Qingcen angrily, "You..."

But Xie Qingcen didn't care about Ruan Liuzheng's complicated feelings. He only knew that Ruan Liuzheng had calmed down.

His deterrence worked.

He nodded with satisfaction, then opened the secret compartment on the side and took out a white box.

Reach out, open it, and take out the ointment inside.

Xie Qingcen slowly squeezed a little into the palm of his hand and gently rubbed it.

Then, in the stunned look of Ruan Liuzheng, he gently wiped it on Ruan Liuzheng's face.

He lowered his eyes slightly, looking serious, as if he was treating a rare treasure.

Ruan Liuzheng looked at him quietly, and the two of them were very close.

So close that she could almost feel his warm breath.

All the resolutions she had just made were thrown out of her mind in an instant, and the only thing she could hear now was the thumping of her own heartbeat.

So rapid, so powerful.

It turns out that in the face of reality, all determination is in vain.

After Xie Qingcen wiped the last red and swollen area, he withdrew his hand and wiped the remaining ointment on his fingertips.

Then he looked at Ruan Liuzheng, his voice clear and sweet with an inexplicable seriousness, "Don't feel burdened by my pursuit. I've said before that pursuing you is my personal wish."

"Even if you haven't divorced yet, even if I may not be able to see others, I am still happy with it. You don't have to feel guilty or embarrassed. Life is short, and the most important thing is to follow your heart!"

Ruan Liuzheng's heart was shocked.

His eyes were fixed on Xie Qingcen, but a huge wave of emotions was surging in his heart.

After a long time, she lowered her eyes slightly. The ointment on her cheek was slowly melting, bringing waves of coolness.

Ruan Liuzheng pursed her lips, neither nodded nor said anything to refuse.

He just turned his head away silently.

Maybe even she herself didn't know how to answer.

Xie Qingcen did not send Ruan Liuzheng back to the company, but sent her directly back to Yuelan Huafu.

Upon seeing this, Ruan Liuzheng simply glanced at Xie Qingcen, which was considered as his agreement.

Because her current appearance is really not suitable for going to Sofan again.

Too embarrassing.

"Xie Qingcen, thank you for what you did today."

Ruan Liuzheng stood beside the black Rolls-Royce Phantom, his eyes slightly lowered, and said to Xie Qingcen inside through the half-lowered car window, "And what you just said, I will think about it carefully."

Xie Qingcen raised his eyebrows, "Yeah. Go up and have a good rest. I'll ask someone to pick up Fu Jingcheng. You don't have to worry about it."

Ruan Liuzheng nodded and did not refuse.

She took one last look at Xie Qingcen, then turned and went upstairs.

There are some things that really need to be considered carefully.

After Ruan Liuzheng left, Xie Qingcen did not stay for long and told the driver to return to the group.

On the way, Qi Chong answered the bosses' questions one by one, and then reported the next itinerary to Xie Qingcen.

"Mr. Xie, this is probably what you have to do next."

Qi Chong closed the memo, emphasizing the word "must".
