Seeing him like this, Qing's heart softened and she sat back on the chair.
The two were silent for a long time. Qing Ke kept staring at Zheng Sheng, waiting for his explanation.
"Keke, can you help me one more time? I will make the company profitable and strong as soon as possible, and use this as a condition to get my parents to agree to my marriage with Youyou."
At this time, the waiter came up with coffee and interrupted Zhengsheng.
Qing Ke stirred the coffee cup twice with a spoon. After the waiter left, she lowered her voice and said sternly, "It's easy for you to say that. Why are you so selfish? You only care about you and Youyou and don't consider my feelings at all."
"Keke, don't worry. I've discussed it with my parents and decided to keep the engagement party simple. We'll just invite close relatives and try to minimize the impact on you."
Zhengsheng spoke so excitedly and seriously.
In his heart, he thought he had tried very hard to weigh the pros and cons and had tried his best to minimize the impact on Qing Ke.
Qing Ke sneered, and looking at Zheng Sheng who looked serious in front of her, she felt a little amused and helpless.
She picked up the coffee on the table and took a big sip as if she were drinking boiled water.
She sympathizes with Zhengsheng and Youyou, but this cannot be a reason for Zhengsheng to become more aggressive, right?
Before this, she thought Zheng Sheng was a good person and someone worth making friends with, but now she felt that his face was so scary.
"Keke, tell me! What conditions do you want me to agree to get engaged to you and help me continue this drama?"
Qingke was so angry that his veins bulged, but Zhengsheng was completely oblivious and continued to be demanding of himself.
She was so angry that she threw the coffee in her hand at Zhengsheng, "Wang Zhengsheng, you'd better give up your selfish thoughts, otherwise, we will only become enemies." After saying that, she grabbed the bag beside her and stormed out angrily.
Zheng Sheng was caught off guard by Qing Ke's actions. He stood there in shock with his mouth wide open.
Zhengsheng and Qingke's talks broke down, but the parents of both sides had already arranged their engagement in private, wanting to give the two children an unexpected surprise.
Although Qing Ke was very angry, she did not tell her parents the truth when she returned home. She acted as if nothing had happened, going to the company as usual and shopping as usual.
Occasionally, she would go to the Chaole Bar to sit. In the past, Wu Meng's constant pestering of her used to make her feel a little annoyed. But after not seeing Wu Meng for so long, she suddenly felt as if something was missing.
Listening to the familiar music, watching the people coming and going in the bar, drinking the bitter wine in her hand, she was filled with thoughts and recalled every detail of the past.
The news that Zhengsheng and Qingke were getting engaged spread quickly. When Qingke thought of explaining everything to her parents, it seemed a little too late.
Not only did her parents not believe it, they also scolded her for being so willful, saying that it was normal for young people to quarrel occasionally and asked her not to be angry with Zhengsheng.
She didn't understand why her parents said that.
"Dad, Mom, this isn't a quarrel. Zhengsheng and I are just acting, you know? Acting. He just wants me to cover for him and the person he likes."
Qing Ke stamped her feet anxiously. She explained to her parents in a clear voice and with her hands gesticulating, for fear that her parents would not believe her.
Shang Xin and Bai Meng smiled at each other. Bai Meng grabbed Qing Ke's hand and patted the back of her hand gently.
"Keke, don't be angry. Zhengsheng has told us everything. He really understands you and said you would tell us that what happened between you was just an act so that you could punish him this way. I didn't expect you to actually say that today."
"He really said that?"
Bai Meng smiled and nodded in response.
"Humph! What else did he say?"
"It's nothing, we just want you to persuade us not to let your willfulness delay your engagement."
"I—I—he—"
Today, Qing Ke finally understood what it meant to find a pretext to accuse someone of a crime. She was truly speechless. Even her own parents didn't believe her.
She shook off Bai Meng's hand and stormed out of the house angrily.
"Wang Zhengsheng, you really think I can't do anything to you? Look, I'm going to turn your Wang family upside down right now. If you don't offend me, I might consider turning a blind eye. If you do, I'll make sure your whole family is in turmoil."
When Qing Ke came to Wang's house, she had already decided to put aside her status as a young lady and have a good fight with Wang Zhengsheng.
"Wang Zhengsheng, come out here, if you have the guts, open the door, open the door quickly."
At the gate of Wang's house, Qing Ke lay on the door like a shrew, banging on it hard.
A wolfhound in the yard barked wildly at Qing Ke, baring its teeth, as if it was going to rush through the iron fence and bite Qing Ke.
