Chapter 67 I Won't Give You a Chance to Back Down
Ruan Liuzheng raised her eyes slightly, and a hint of relief appeared at the corners of her light pink lips.
She looked at Xie Qingcen, "Xie Qingcen, after this is over, if you can really help me get a divorce, then... let's give it a try."
The cold voice was as melodious as the sound of jade, revealing a gentleness that was not often heard before.
Xie Qingcen's eyes paused, and his dark black eyes stared at Ruan Liuzheng's beautiful and refined face, and his heart trembled slightly uncontrollably.
Even though he had known for a long time that Ruan Liuzheng might be attracted to him, he had never thought that he could make her agree through this incident. He thought it would take a lot of effort.
Unexpectedly... he underestimated Ruan Liuzheng's rationality and decisiveness.
Xie Qingcen frowned, and an undisguised smile appeared at the corner of his thin lips.
After a long time, he opened his lips, his voice was clear and mellow with a strong sense of pleasure, and his dark eyes were full of light.
"Okay, but Ruan Liuzheng, I won't allow you to back down halfway. Since you've agreed, you must be prepared to be entangled by me for the rest of your life."
Xie Qingcen raised his eyebrows, his delicate features revealing a strong determination that could not be questioned. He looked at Ruan Liuzheng and said in a wild and overbearing tone, "From now on, you can only hold my name in your eyes and heart. I will not give you any other choice."
Ruan Liuzheng gently lifted her eyelids, her beautiful eyebrows and eyes were cold and distant, the corners of her lips were slightly raised, and her cold eyes flickered slightly.
She said in an ambiguous tone, "Sometimes I really doubt that the person I know is a fake Xie Qingcen."
Xie Qingcen raised his eyebrows, "Why do you say that?"
Ruan Liuzheng frowned slightly and suddenly let out a faint laugh. Then she looked at Xie Qingcen, a hint of teasing flashing across her cold eyes.
"Because the difference between your words and your appearance is... quite big."
Xie Qingcen was slightly stunned when he heard this.
Then a hearty laugh escaped from his throat, and his delicate eyes and brows showed unconcealable joy.
"Xiao Liu Zheng, I am also a human being, I have emotions and desires. If you continue to use those inexplicable rules and regulations to restrict me, then I don't mind letting you see... my pure animal side, how crazy it is."
The dark black eyes stared straight at Ruan Liuzheng, with a few tiny gleams of light in their depths.
Although he looked gentle and polite, Ruan Liuzheng felt her chest tighten subconsciously, as if a big hand was pinching it gently.
It doesn't hurt, but it feels extremely numb.
She pursed her lips, uncomfortably avoiding Xie Qingcen's smiling eyes, took a deep breath and said, "I don't know how crazy that side of you is, but I know that if we keep wasting time like this, then you may not even have a chance to try."
Ruan Liuzheng lowered her eyes and looked at the watch on her wrist, her eyes and brows showing a coldness.
The time Feng Zhuyi told her yesterday was ten o'clock in the morning. Now it was almost nine o'clock, and there was only one hour left until Fu Yanci and Bai Huanqing's clarification press conference.
But now that the matter of her grandfather's will has been settled, she can naturally ignore Feng Zhuyi's threats yesterday.
But...Ruan Liuzheng has always been a person who keeps her promises.
Since she had nodded and agreed to Feng Zhuyi, how could she break her promise so easily?
Besides, she still had a big gift to give to Fu Yanci and Bai Huanqing.
Ruan Liuzheng looked at the mobile phone placed beside her, and her light pink lips curled up in a shallow arc.
Her beautiful eyes and eyebrows also revealed a hint of irony.
Xie Qingcen's eyes moved, and his dark eyes looked at Ruan Liuzheng quietly. He guessed what Ruan Liuzheng was thinking without having to express it in words.
He smiled slightly, drank the last mouthful of porridge gracefully, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said, "Do you need my help?"
Ruan Liuzheng glanced at him indifferently, her beautiful eyes flickering slightly, and this time she did not refuse out loud.
She nodded, looking serious, "Yes."
…
Half an hour later, Ruan Liuzheng, escorted by Xie Qingcen, appeared at the entrance of the Ritz-Carlton Hotel on time.
Since there was still some time before the press conference, Ruan Liuzheng did not go to the venue immediately, but went to a lounge on the sixth floor.
The Ritz-Carlton Hotel is the only seven-star hotel in Yuncheng, and there is always a constant stream of people coming here to book conference venues.
The fact that Fu Yanci and the Bai family chose to hold the press conference here is enough to show the impact of this scandal on them.
I don't know how much effort they put in to get the hotel management to give in and let them cut in line.
Ruan Liuzheng looked at the luxuriously designed hotel in front of him, with a hint of sarcasm at the corner of his lips.
She said goodbye to Xie Qingcen and turned to enter the hotel.
Since they insisted on disgusting her, she would clarify things with Fu Yanci and Bai Huanqing.
Hopefully they'll like the gift she gave them.
Ruan Liuzheng took the elevator to the sixth floor without any obstruction. When passing by the banquet hall, reporters from various media newspapers in Yuncheng had already swarmed in and surrounded the entire banquet hall.
After all, it involves two wealthy families in Yuncheng, and one of them is known for its deep affection.
The sudden outbreak of such an extramarital affair scandal was a hot topic for the Yuncheng news and business circles, which had been silent for a long time.
Whether it is the reporters pursuing performance or other wealthy companies ready to watch the show and take advantage of the situation, today is an opportunity for them.
So they naturally won't miss it.
However, compared to them, today's protagonist has clearly already secured victory and has not yet shown up.
Because in their hearts, they had already settled down with Ruan Liuzheng as a chess piece, and they were not worried at all that she would play any more tricks.
In their eyes, Ruan Liuzheng had a weakness in their hands. Killing Ruan Liuzheng would be as easy as killing an ant. How could they take Ruan Liuzheng seriously again?
Ruan Liuzheng was also well aware of their arrogance and conceit, and she was even more happy to see it happen.
She walked into the lounge slowly, ready to have a good rest before Fu Yanci and the others arrived.
After all, she tossed and turned the whole night. Even though Jiang Yubai's medicine was indeed effective, Ruan Liuzheng still felt a little tired today.
However, reality does not allow her to rest.
Ruan Liuzheng sat on the sofa, supporting her forehead with one hand. Her cold eyes had just lowered when the door of the lounge was pushed open from the outside.
What followed was a steady sound of footsteps. Ruan Liuzheng heard the noise and her beautiful brows frowned slightly. She raised her eyes and looked quietly at the person who came.
There was a hint of coldness in his eyes.
Bai Xunan was wearing a dark black suit, with his hair neatly combed back, looking calm and capable, with an elite air.
The years of luxury and comfort have made him more elegant.
What's more, he was a man of mild temper, but his mildness was just hypocritical.
Ruan Liuzheng's expression remained unchanged. She looked at him indifferently, her beautiful eyes full of sarcasm.
After not seeing him for many years, his posture has become more and more precise.
"Don't you know how to talk to me when you see me? Ruan Liuzheng, have all your manners and upbringings been eaten by dogs?"
Seeing that Ruan Liuzheng didn't move, a hint of displeasure flashed across Bai Xunan's gentle eyes. He stared at Ruan Liuzheng with a heavy gaze, his brows tightly knitted together.
The tight corners of his lips revealed his impatience and anger at the moment.
Ruan Liuzheng seemed to have heard something funny and suddenly laughed twice.
She raised her eyelids nonchalantly, and her beautiful eyes and eyebrows showed a hint of a smile.
His tone was sarcastic. "What does Chairman Bai want me to say? Ask about your health or your family situation?"
Ruan Liuzheng asked back coldly, her cold eyes becoming more and more sarcastic.
She smiled and said, "If it's the former, then I'm sorry. I'm very disappointed to see you standing in front of me intact today."
"Because during the years when you kicked me out of the house, I was hoping that you would soon ascend to heaven. If it was the latter, then I would be even more embarrassed, because I would rather you end up with your wife and children separated and die alone."
Bai Xunan was so angry that his face turned red and his neck became thick. He raised his hand and pointed at Ruan Liuzheng with trembling fingertips, his gentle eyes full of anger.
His face darkened, "Rebellious girl! Do you know what you are saying? Don't forget that no matter how resentful and dissatisfied you are, I am still your biological father."
"You still have half of my blood in your body, and that's something you can never give up."
Ruan Liuzheng snorted coldly, "I don't need you to remind me. But having a father like you will be a stain and shame that I, Ruan Liuzheng, will never be able to erase in my lifetime."
“Sometimes, I feel dirty myself.”
Ruan Liuzheng glanced at Bai Xunan with contempt, and her cold voice was filled with deep disgust.
Bai Xunan laughed in anger.
He looked at Ruan Liuzheng, his expression slightly boastful, "But there is no other way. No matter how unwilling you are, you have to endure it. After all, your mother has only loved me in her life."
"Ruan Liuzheng, I advise you to be honest. Today's press conference is extremely important to Huanqing. You should put aside your rebellious temper, otherwise..."
Bai Xunan's tone changed, and his expression suddenly became cold. He looked at Ruan Liuzheng steadily, and his gentle voice contained no hidden threats or intimidation.
But Ruan Liuzheng was not brought up to be scared.
She had long been accustomed to Bai Xunan's threats, and she no longer had any emotional fluctuations about them.
After all, they are just a bunch of arrogant idiots.
However, this time, Bai Xunan stepped on her bottom line, and an emotion called "anger" emerged uncontrollably in her heart.
Ruan Liuzheng's eyes turned cold, and she looked at Bai Xunan, her cold eyes without a trace of warmth.
She stood up and said expressionlessly, "Bai Xunan, you are not qualified to mention my mother. If you still want today's press conference to proceed normally, then don't let me hear you mention those words again."
"Because every time you bring it up, it's an insult to my mother."
After Ruan Liuzheng finished speaking, she glanced at Bai Xunan indifferently. She sneered twice and walked out of the lounge without hesitation.
When she was in the same space with Bai Xunan, she felt that even the air she breathed was dirty.
Because there are pollution sources.
