Li Hanting's deep eyes remained motionless as he listened to Xia Yunxi's words. The corners of his cold lips curled up slightly in a smile that barely reached his eyes. "I never have to explain anything to anyone."
Xia Yunxi understood: "So you meant what you said."
"Hmm." The man raised his chin slightly, obviously in a good mood.
Xia Yunxi didn't know what to say. "What the hell are you talking about? Have you ever asked for my opinion?"
She raised her hand to help him. Sometimes it is really frustrating when there is a language barrier.
"But I didn't agree." She tried her best to suppress her temper.
Li Hanting raised his eyebrows slightly. He turned his head and glanced around calmly, then stood up and leaned forward slightly. "I don't think any of this matters. What I suggested before was just a matter of status. I can tell you clearly that I will marry you, so don't worry, there won't be any other surprises."
"Are you sick? Is this what I care about? Mr. Li, don't you know that marriage needs to be based on feelings?" Because there were people around her, Xia Yunxi had to suppress her tone. She had never realized before that communicating with others was such a difficult thing.
No, I discovered it before.
Li Hanting was skeptical about her appearance at first, thinking that she was a woman with evil intentions and deliberately approached Jinchen in order to gain more wealth.
Xia Yunxi tucked her messy hair behind her ears. "Besides, relationships between people are based on respect. But, Li Hanting, after you announced your relationship with me, have you ever respected my thoughts?"
"What do you think?" Li Hanting asked seriously.
"I don't like it." Xia Yunxi said directly.
Li Hanting chuckled softly in his hoarse voice: "Stop making trouble, we already have two children."
Xia Yunxi was furious!
There's no way to communicate at all.
Just at this time, the waiter brought the steak. After placing it, Li Hanting took the initiative to pour red wine for the two of them.
"I understand what you mean. Don't you just want an emotional foundation? Emotions can be cultivated, but the child lacks the love of his father and mother. Do you think that without his biological parents around, these can be compensated by others?" Li Hanting placed the wine glass in front of Xia Yunxi.
In the restaurant, melodious music is played because it follows the Western hedonistic atmosphere.
It was very comfortable, and the atmosphere created was free from the noise and bustle of other stores. In short, it easily calmed Xia Yunxi's anger.
In fact, the more important reason is what Li Hanting said.
He had never spoken openly about the problems of his two children. Xia Yunxi used to think that he didn't care about his children, but after experiencing and seeing so much, she realized that when it came to the children's problems, how could a father play the role of a mother?
Li Hanting also poured himself a glass of wine, took a sip, and then picked up his knife and fork. "I admit that I used to be prejudiced against you, but that was because I didn't want my child to be hurt. Especially, being deceived by his own biological mother! Do you understand what I'm saying?"
Well, there is still that little bit of grudge, and the Gao Qiang that was erected seems to have cracked.
"What happened five years ago, whether it was a misunderstanding or a carefully planned one... I don't care about any of that. After all, you gave birth to two children for me."
"Now, please allow me to reintroduce myself. I'm Li Hanting, the president of the Li Group. My wealth is unattainable for ordinary people. I graduated from Harvard University with a degree in finance and am also pursuing a doctorate... If I really want to talk about my strengths, I don't think I can explain them clearly in a short time."
"Miss Xia, you are willing to give me this opportunity. Are we familiar with each other?" Li Hanting's strong and handsome face looked very serious as he looked at Xia Yunxi, not missing any expression on her face.
Xia Yunxi actually felt that she was speechless. Li Hanting had already said this, what else could she say?
It seems that after all, the best outcome is to choose to be with this man.
Whether it's her or her two children...
But is this really the case?
Xia Yunxi couldn't help but ask herself, does she like the man in front of her?
In fact, it is undeniable that when this man puts down his superior attitude and introduces himself seriously, no matter what his thoughts are, he is undoubtedly very attractive.
This attraction is not about his wealth or his net worth... but his inherent ability, which can charm people and make them unconsciously follow his rhythm and be confused by him.
Xia Yunxi didn't know how she finished the meal. When she came out of the restaurant, the cold wind blew in her face and she woke up instantly.
The driver was already waiting by the roadside. Li Hanting opened the car door for her and then turned around to look at her.
Xia Yunxi took a deep breath, walked over and got into the car.
Li Hanting also got in the car and told the driver: "Go to the Imperial City Cinema."
Xia Yunxi felt her heart beating like a drum again. Could it be that she was really moved? She couldn't help but secretly look at the man beside her. His cold profile was very charming, and his sexy thin lips were slightly pursed. In fact, his whole person looked like a sharp blade, revealing a coldness.
But when this hint of coldness wrapped around the warmth, Xia Yunxi found it really hard to refuse!
When she sat in the cinema, she was still struggling with this matter in her mind.
However, as if he suddenly realized something, the movie had already started in the dark space, but no one was there.
She couldn't help but look back and forth. Li Hanting beside her noticed her movements and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Is there no one else?"
Li Hanting raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "Oh, I booked the whole place."
Xia Yunxi was surprised. He was indeed a big shot and rich.
"What's wrong?" Although the man's eyes were fixed on the big screen, he could still feel that the woman next to him was distracted.
"Just the two of us, and we've booked the entire cinema. Don't you think it's a waste?" Xia Yunxi said thoughtfully.
Li Hanting looked back at her with a half-smile, "You want me to be with those people?"
Why does this sound like a hint of contempt?
Xia Yunxi heard correctly, because Li Hanting said the next second: "If you can be with me, I can consider it and try to get along with civilians."
Xia Yunxi chuckled twice and said, "Sir, civilians are also human beings. You don't have to look down on them."
Of course, she was just complaining in her heart.
Xia Yunxi knew a little about this man. He told the truth about everything and always treated him in a favorable light. He didn't like people who went against his will.
