Chapter 43 Chapter 43 Showdown
Until six o'clock, there was still no news from Jiang Yue.
Wen Yao began to wonder if Lu Wan was the only candidate for a wife suitable for the Rose Dinner and Jewelry package, and that he didn't care about someone like her at all, so he forgot about it?
Because she began to doubt and was hungry, she went to have dinner. She had only eaten half a bowl of rice when Jiang Yue called.
His tone was still gentle over the phone as he said to her, "Have Old Wu drive you out. Come meet me at the office. I'll be off work in twenty minutes."
"Okay." Wen Yao was so happy that she immediately put down her bowl and chopsticks.
She wanted to ask if she wanted to change into a dress or something, but she held the words back. After all, according to the character of the naive and innocent heroine, she shouldn't ask such questions. She should act very surprised after seeing the roses.
So she finally put on a decent skirt, got in the car and went to the company to wait for Jiang Yue.
When they arrived at the Yueer Group building, Jiang Yue had just finished his work. He took her hand and went downstairs. He asked her, "Have you eaten?" She immediately shook her head, afraid that she was too small for him to notice. "No."
"Then let's go eat." Then he drove her away.
Wen Yao was surprised she didn't see 99 roses. With that many roses, they'd normally be in the trunk. But if they were, he should have opened the trunk and shown it to her when he saw her.
So does this rose exist?
Never mind. Roses will wither too. A necklace will do, but of course a good meal is also necessary.
After driving for twenty minutes, Wen Yao felt something was wrong.
This didn't look like they were going to a high-end shopping mall or an expensive private kitchen, but rather a residential area. Jiang Yue even drove the car to a residential complex, then into the basement, and finally stopped there.
"We're here," he said, getting out of the car and opening the door for her.
Wen Yao stared at the garage in a daze: "Aren't we going to eat? There's a restaurant in this neighborhood?"
Jiang Yue didn't say anything and took her towards the elevator.
From the decoration of the elevator lobby, you can tell that this community is also a high-end community, but because of this, the residents will not agree to open a restaurant here, right?
The elevator went up to the seventh floor.
Jiang Yue pulled her out of the elevator, and then he opened the door of Room 702, led her in, and closed the door.
Wen Yao quietly surveyed the room, wondering how the owner had managed to keep it clean. The living room was as spotless as a model apartment. Candles burned in the dining room, placed on exquisitely shaped European candlesticks. They were beautiful and atmospheric. Then she finally spotted the roses—exactly 99 of them, arranged on the white dining table. Next to the roses was a square cake box, faintly lit with colorful lights.
There was a faint sound coming from the kitchen. Just as she was wondering where this place was, the kitchen door opened and someone walked out.
It was a foreigner. He came out while taking off his white work clothes. When he came in front of Jiang Yue, the two of them said something. The foreigner smiled and nodded at them and left, and the door closed again.
"This is……"
"Didn't we say we were celebrating your birthday?" Jiang Yue replied, pulling her inside.
"Look at this furnishing and decoration style, do you like it?"
Wen Yao looked at the furnishings in the room and liked them very much. After all, she was an ordinary office worker and all her knowledge had been gained since she came here. How could she not like them?
So when do they eat?
Jiang Yue pulled her inside, and she found that this was a large flat with three bedrooms and two living rooms. Although it was not as luxurious as Luoman Manor, this kind of house was actually more economical and comfortable to live in.
Each room is furnished, with bedding in pink, green, and white, simple and elegant. The master bedroom has a cozy floor lamp, a desk, and a TV opposite the bed, which is suitable for playing games and watching TV series.
"This is your birthday present." Jiang Yue said.
"Birthday present?" Wen Yao looked around the bedroom before realizing that he seemed to be talking about this house.
"Ah?" Wen Yao was shocked and looked at him blankly, unable to believe her own guess.
Jiang Yue smiled dotingly and said, "Didn't you tell Jiang Chen before that I gave you a house? I don't want to help you cover up this lie."
Wen Yao still didn't react: "But... that was just a casual remark. Why did you suddenly want to give me a house?"
Jiang Yue said gently, "You have no home or family here. I know you must miss home. Although I can't send your family to you, it's always good to give you a place to belong. If I ever make you angry, you can hide here."
This world does not belong to her, but the warmth and touching feeling at this moment are real. She really does not have any sense of belonging here, so... will this be her exclusive harbor from now on?
Wen Yao personally planned Lu Wan's birthday. She knew why Lu Wan was moved by Jiang Lin's birthday gift, because Jiang Lin touched her heart, and now Jiang Yue has touched her heart.
So he automatically upgraded? Giving a gift was actually thoughtful.
After looking at the house, Jiang Yue pulled her to the restaurant and said, "Let's eat first."
Jiang Yue prepared a candlelight dinner. Looking at the French dishes on the table, Wen Yao thought of the foreigner just now: "So that was the chef?"
Jiang Yue nodded: "Try it and see if you are satisfied." Then he poured her a glass of red wine.
Wen Yao looked at the red wine bottle and said in surprise, "This bottle is so special."
Jiang Yue explained: "It's from a 45-year-old wooden barrel winery. Try it."
Wen Yao smelled the mellow aroma and asked him, "Is it the same level as the 1982 Lafite?"
Jiang Yue laughed: "Probably... a little more expensive than this."
When he said that, Wen Yao knew the quality of the wine and tried to take a sip.
Actually... it's just like that. She couldn't tell if it was a luxury red wine, but it seemed to have a higher alcohol content than what she had drunk before.
But Jiang Yue looked at her quietly, as if expecting her to comment. He gave her a house and opened red wine tonight. Wen Yao couldn't help but nod and said, "It tastes good."
So Jiang Yue also took a sip from his glass and wished her, "Happy birthday."
Wen Yao found that although the red wine was not too sweet, it was quite interesting to drink, so she took a few more sips.
The food is also very good. Although it is not a high-end restaurant, the chef is definitely not ordinary. The taste is no worse than that of high-end restaurants.
She had been hungry all day, and although the French dishes were not large in portion, she managed to finish several plates. Fortunately, there were many dishes.
She also drank two glasses of expensive red wine, and only at the end of the candlelight dinner did she realize that she seemed to have drunk too much and was a little dizzy.
At this time, Jiang Yue came over and asked her with concern: "Are you a little drunk? I'll take you to lie down."
Wen Yao nodded, and he helped her to the bedroom, where she leaned against the head of the bed.
Then he said, "I have something else for you."
Wen Yao looked at him and saw him take out a black velvet box. When he opened it, a huge sapphire inside flashed into her eyes.
She said, it was indeed a familiar plot.
"Try it." He said, took out the necklace, gently lifted her hair and put it on her.
His hand was warm, and when it touched the back of her neck, there was a burning sensation. He was so close to her that she could almost feel his breath. She felt her body slowly stiffen as she sat.
After putting on the necklace, he looked at her steadily, and a subtle atmosphere rose and spread between the two of them.
Then his lips pressed against mine.
Although Wen Yao felt a little dizzy, she was still very clear-headed and knew she had to push him away.
But the question is, with what reason?
After all, you love me and I love you, and now when we are so affectionate...
While she was hesitating, his kiss gradually deepened, making her feel almost unable to breathe.
This... there must be a reason... She thought, but she felt her consciousness slowing down again. Her hands were already on his shoulders, but she couldn't muster the strength to push him away. It was as if some force was pulling her heart down to the bottom of the valley...
The next moment, he had kissed her neck, gentle yet domineering, and then unbuttoned the front of her skirt.
Wen Yao's heart tightened, and she immediately pushed him away. Just as she was thinking about how to say no, Jiang Yue looked at her with burning eyes and said in a deep voice, "Wen Yao, I love you."
After saying that, he kissed her again.
Wen Yao suddenly realized something was wrong.
Why did he buy a house for herself, why did he come to show her the house at night, why did he prepare a candlelight dinner, why did he drink 82 or 45 year old red wine, he was going to sleep with her!
And why did he want to sleep with her? Of course, it was to get her completely, not her body, but her loyalty and her author identity!
In fact, he might have seen something, after all, he was a very difficult person to fool.
Thinking of this, a sense of fear came over her. Wen Yao had never forgotten that Jiang Yue was a villain. In the original plot, he had done all kinds of bad things, even killing people!
She pushed him away regardless of everything. Before she could think of a reason to refuse, Jiang Yue held her face and said, "Wen Yao, can we be together? Aren't you my wife?"
"But... I... feel it's too sudden..." Wen Yao stuttered because of nervousness.
Jiang Yue said softly, "Why is it so sudden? I've been waiting for a long time..." Then he kissed her chest again.
Wen Yao completely lost control and pushed him with all her might, shouting at him anxiously, "You can't, let me go, let me go, if you dare to force me, I will...I will die with you!"
Before Jiang Yue could say anything, his cell phone rang.
After glancing at the screen, he picked up the phone. Wen Yao was right under him and heard the voice on the phone: "Mr. Jiang, have you read the news? Wanren Group invested in Guangtai Mall, which is Jiang Lin's project."
Jiang Yue didn't reply immediately, but looked at Wen Yao with an extremely calm gaze, and then slowly said: "Okay, I understand."
Guangtai Shopping Mall is Jiang Lin’s unfinished building project, and Wanren Group is more powerful than Cube Real Estate, even the Jiang family can hardly compete with it.
It’s just that Wanren Group has never been involved in the real estate industry. Who would have known that it would suddenly join in and invest in the project that Jiang Lin took over.
Of course it was because of the male protagonist’s halo. Wen Yao had reminded Jiang Lin before, and he did it.
"Did you hear that?" Jiang Yue asked.
Facing his calm and terrifying gaze, Wen Yao forgot to reply, and was left with only uneasiness and fear.
Jiang Yue got the answer he wanted from her reaction.
He held her down with one hand and unbuckled his belt with the other.
Seeing him like this, Wen Yao shouted anxiously: "Don't, don't do this, have you forgotten your previous fate? I told you not to do bad things, and there will be retribution for doing bad things. You want to change your fate, not repeat the same mistakes!"
