Chapter 1353 Becoming a Sinner
"It's not really a grievance. You also said that since husband and wife are one, we should consider each other!" Nie Yao sighed softly and said in a faint tone, "We can make concessions for each other, as long as we consider each other in everything. Isn't that right?"
Li Jinxing nodded and answered without hesitation: "Of course!"
Nie Yao put down her chopsticks, looked at Li Jinxing in front of her, and whispered, "So, Li Jinxing, shouldn't you explain to me how you snatched away the Nie family's bidding project?"
As Nie Yao finished speaking, Li Jinxing paused with his chopsticks, which were about to pick up some food. He raised his eyes to meet Nie Yao's scrutinizing gaze. After a moment of silence, he slowly put down his chopsticks and sighed softly, "Yaoyao, who told you that? Your father or your grandfather?"
Nie Yao did not answer, but said in a deep voice: "You should answer my question first!"
"Yaoyao, I remember I reminded you before not to tell them about your return, lest they leak the news to Nie Guanglin!"
Li Jinxing did not rush to answer her, but shook his head and sighed.
Nie Yao chuckled softly, stroking the edge of her wine glass, and whispered, "Li Jinxing, I don't know now whether you're doing this because you're afraid that the news of my return will leak out, or because you're worried that they'll tell me what you've been hiding from me..."
She paused, shook her head, and smiled bitterly, "Li Jinxing, I left Egypt with the confidence that I would let you help with the Nie family's affairs. But I didn't expect that what you said was going to be fine would end up being the Nie family's business that you snatched away..."
"Yaoyao, this matter is not as simple as you think!" Li Jinxing actually knew that she would find out about this matter sooner or later, but he didn't expect that she would know it so quickly!
There is no doubt that Father Nie must have said something unpleasant, but when he decided to do this, he also made plans for the worst!
"Li Jinxing, although I don't understand the ins and outs of business, I know that the Nie family has been preparing for that project for a long time. If my father hadn't told me personally, I wouldn't have believed you would do this!"
Nie Yao raised her eyes to meet Li Jinxing's and whispered, "I know you've always been ruthless in your business dealings, but you shouldn't use those tactics against the Nie family!"
"Yaoyao, there are too many things involved here. I do this for your own good..." Li Jinxing explained in a low voice.
"For my own good? Li Jinxing, you've made me feel like a sinner!"
Nie Yao laughed self-deprecatingly, staring at the wine glass in front of her and saying, "Just like Nie Jinxi said before, I brought you to the Nie family, but in the end, I pushed the Nie family into a dangerous situation. I became the sinner who let the wolf into the house..."
After she said this, she drank the wine in the glass in one breath. She wanted to pour another glass, but Li Jinxing grabbed her wrist.
"Yaoyao, I don't allow you to say that!" Li Jinxing shouted, frowning slightly.
"I don't care what Nie Jinxi says or what Nie Guanglin says, but you have to believe me and yourself. Do you really think I'm with you just for the Nie family's fortune?"
Nie Yao was slightly startled. Meeting his somewhat sad gaze, she smiled bitterly and shook her head, saying, "I don't know what I should believe..."
"Yaoyao, I didn't hide this from you on purpose. I did this because I didn't want you to think too much!"
Li Jinxing sighed softly, held her hand, and said in a deep voice, "Even if I didn't take action, the Nie family would have been on the brink of crisis!"
