Chapter 116 Jealous Xie Qingcen
"It should be more than just curiosity."
Xie Qingcen raised his eyes, and Ruan Liuzheng's expression at the moment was reflected in his dark eyes, and his eyes gradually became darker.
He said calmly, "According to your temper, if it's not something too important, you probably wouldn't ask at this time."
Xie Qingcen glanced at the food on the table, with a faint smile on the corner of his thin lips.
His expression was extremely determined.
Ruan Liuzheng is a person who pays great attention to table manners.
I rarely initiate a conversation at the dinner table because it is very impolite to interrupt someone's meal.
Besides, if he guessed correctly, Ruan Liuzheng should have worked for an entire afternoon today. According to an adult's energy and body stored calories, she should be feeling very hungry at the moment.
In particular, she also suffered from serious stomach problems.
Xie Qingcen's eyes fell on the dishes and chopsticks in front of Ruan Liuzheng, and a gleam of light flashed across his eyes.
The food she had just eaten was totally insufficient to make up for the energy she had lost this afternoon.
He pursed his lips, his handsome features unconsciously showing some seriousness, "Is it the project that is having trouble, or are the people from Hanfei Group making things difficult for you?"
Xie Qingcen's eyes were slightly cold, and at the end of his speech, his clear voice revealed a hint of chill.
Ruan Liuzheng sighed softly, "It is true that bidding is somewhat difficult, but it can be ignored. I can still handle that little thing."
"As for the embarrassment, Xie Qingcen, your idea is a bit outrageous."
Ruan Liuzheng curled her lips. Even though she knew Xie Qingcen cared about her, she still found it a little funny.
She looked helpless, "Hanfei is the only company in Yuncheng that is among the top ten in the world. They have the vision and ability to not embarrass us."
Xie Qingcen's eyes were slightly startled, and a smile rose uncontrollably at the corner of his thin lips.
It has to be said that it was hard not to feel happy when he heard his woman’s recognition of his abilities.
He suppressed the upward curve of his lips, trying not to make it too obvious.
He took a deep breath and said in a serious tone, "Why is that? It can't really be just out of curiosity, right?"
"You seem to be very persistent about this issue."
Ruan Liuzheng raised her eyebrows slightly, and her cold voice contained a hint of helplessness, "And I'm really just curious."
"I have a friend who has high standards. He is also my boss. He praised the new chairman of Hanfei Group in my ear more than once today. He also wants to..."
She stopped talking abruptly in the middle of her words, a hint of guilt passing through her black and white eyes imperceptibly.
The fingers on the table were curled slightly.
Although her movements were subtle, Xie Qingcen was still able to keenly detect the difference in her tone.
Moreover, the ugly thoughts that were tacitly accepted in the upper class circles were clear to all, but he did not expect that such a thing would happen to Ruan Liuzheng.
Even though he was the chairman of Hanfei Group, and even though that man was Ruan Liuzheng's friend, he couldn't help but feel angry.
Xie Qingcen narrowed his eyes, and his clear voice was a little dangerous, "He also wants to introduce you to the chairman of Hanfei Group?"
Ruan Liuzheng frowned. "Don't say such harsh words. Rosent and I are very good friends, and he knows my temper well. This matter is largely a joke."
Xie Qingcen pursed his lips tightly, and looked at Ruan Liuzheng steadily with his dark eyes, his eyes were deep and gloomy.
Obviously, he didn't believe Ruan Liuzheng's words at all, and his impression of Rosent didn't change at all.
And no matter whether it was a joke or not, he could not tolerate such a thing happening to Ruan Liuzheng.
Ruan Liuzheng is his woman and will only belong to him in this life.
Xie Qingcen couldn't help but tighten the palms hanging at his sides, and a hint of paranoia flashed in his dark eyes.
His expression tensed a little, "But he's kidding you."
"So I told him about your existence and rejected him."
Before Xie Qingcen could continue speaking, Ruan Liuzheng interrupted him with a smile. The corners of her lips slightly raised, a faint curve appeared on the corners of her light pink lips, and her expression was gentle.
"Xie Qingcen, Rosent is a friend I have known for many years. In my heart, he holds the same position as the professor, a friend as well as a family member."
"I'll introduce you to each other if I have the chance in the future. Don't misunderstand him because of this."
Her eyes were calm, and her clear voice was solemn and forceful, without room for questioning.
In Ruan Liuzheng's heart, love and friendship are equally important, and there is no distinction between first come first served.
She doesn't want to have to balance love and friendship one day.
Ruan Liuzheng's lips gradually pursed, her cold eyes flickered slightly, and her expression became more serious.
Seeing this, the anger surging in Xie Qingcen's heart paused for a moment. He stared straight at Ruan Liuzheng, but his attention was all focused on one point.
He frowned, "Is that Rossent a man?"
Ruan Liuzheng: ...
She pinched her brows with a slight headache, feeling that asking Xie Qingcen this question was an extremely stupid act.
She just wanted to know whether the chairman of Hanfei Group was really as outstanding as Rosent said.
But now...
Ruan Liuzheng sighed softly, and the last bit of curiosity in her heart slowly dissipated. She opened her lips and said, "Xie Qingcen, your jealousy is a little too inexplicable."
"And if there is a possibility between me and Rosent, do you think there is also a possibility between Fu Yanci and you?"
Even though it hurts to say it, it's the truth, isn't it?
In terms of how early they met, Rosent knew her earlier than Fu Yanci; in terms of how long they spent together, Rosent was definitely the one who spent the longest time with her.
Moreover, she and Rosent are not only good friends, but also work partners and soul mates.
But her relationship with Rosent is more of friendship than love.
Because they both know that if they become partners, they may not be able to accompany each other for a lifetime; but if they are just friends, then their relationship can definitely last a lifetime.
So she and Rosent were both very rational, and neither of them chose the red line of cross-border friendship, and they chose the second option at the same time.
They will become the best partners at work and the closest people to each other other than lovers.
Of course, except for the time I was with Fu Yanci.
Ruan Liuzheng gently raised her eyes, her eyes were cold and indifferent, but the meaning was self-evident.
Xie Qingcen was slightly startled.
I didn't expect that in Ruan Liuzheng's heart, the man named Rosent had such a high status.
However... this cannot completely change Xie Qingcen's opinion of Rosent's behavior.
He pursed his lips, frowned and said, "I know what you mean."
"But you can rest assured about one thing. The new chairman of Hanfei Group is indeed as good as your friend said, and he will definitely attend the banquet in a few days."
Xie Qingcen had roughly guessed Ruan Liuzheng's thoughts. While expressing his attitude, he also did not forget to clear up her confusion.
He smiled faintly, "Maybe there will be a surprise then, just for you."
Xie Qingcen had no intention of revealing his identity to Ruan Liuzheng now. Besides, even if he told her now, she would probably not believe it.
It would be better to let her see it with her own eyes at the banquet in a few days. That way it would be more convincing.
Besides, he should make his attitude clear so that those in the circle who covet Ruan Liuzheng can give him some rest.
Xie Qingcen's eyes dimmed, and a hint of coldness appeared at the corners of his thin lips.
His expression was grim and dangerous.
Ruan Liuzheng looked at Xie Qingcen quietly, a hint of suspicion flashing in his cold eyes.
She couldn't understand Xie Qingcen's thoughts at all.
Even from his tone, I couldn't get a glimpse of it.
This feeling was out of control and made her feel a little passive.
However, Ruan Liuzheng didn't say anything. She tapped the table with her fingertips and nodded, saying, "Well, I hope so."
…
Late at night, Ruan Liuzheng heated a cup of milk as usual and entered Fu Jingcheng's room.
She was wearing a light-colored pajamas, with her long black hair casually draped behind her head, looking lazy and intellectual.
She looked at Fu Jingcheng, who was sitting quietly on the bed and flipping through a storybook, and her eyes softened.
The corners of the light pink lips slowly rose into a faint smile.
Ruan Liuzheng walked to the bed with milk and reminded softly, "Chengcheng, it's time to go to bed."
When Fu Jingcheng heard the voice, his attention shifted away from the storybook. He raised his eyes and looked at Ruan Liuzheng who had appeared out of nowhere. His big eyes like black grapes lit up slightly.
Seeing the cup in Ruan Liuzheng's hand, he sat up straight, reached out to take the milk from Ruan Liuzheng as usual, and drank it all in one gulp.
Because she drank so quickly, a circle of snow-white milk stains inevitably appeared around her rosy little mouth.
It looks a bit funny.
But Fu Jingcheng didn't notice it at all, and Ruan Liuzheng didn't seem to want to remind him.
She raised her eyes and looked quietly at Fu Jingcheng lying on the bed, the corners of her light pink lips rising uncontrollably.
Eyebrows slightly raised.
She raised her hand, helped Fu Jingcheng close the storybook, and reminded him, "It's time to read the story today. Don't read it anymore, or you will have to stay in bed tomorrow."
Fu Jingcheng did not refute. He let Ruan Liuzheng take the story book in front of him, his big eyes like black grapes flickering slightly, "Mom, are you really going to attend the banquet of Hanfei Group?"
During dinner, although Fu Jingcheng did not say anything, he could hear the conversation between Xie Qingcen and Ruan Liuzheng clearly.
Thinking of Xie Qingcen's expression and tone at the time, he bit his lower lip unconsciously, and a rare hint of worry appeared on his fair and tender face.
He likes his current life very much, with a mother and a father, so he doesn't want anything to change.
