Late at night, the night was as cool as water. The shadows of the trees loomed, and the wind whistled past.
On the balcony bathed in the breeze, two people stood leaning against the railing.
The cool breeze blew their hair, and from time to time it brought up waves of tree shadows that fell on them.
Ling Jiaye took out a cigarette and handed it to her. Liang Qingmo took a look and looked away. "Sorry, I've quit."
"Ms. Liang is really straightforward. She quit right away."
Ling Jiaye handed it to his mouth, then lit it and took a deep breath.
That was her favorite kind of cigarette. She liked him so she tried it too. At that time, he thought he liked the smell of her.
No matter how strong the smell is now, it is not hers.
"Ling Jiaye, I told you very clearly, the person I like is Xu Buyan."
Liang Qingmo frowned slightly, seeming to have no patience.
Ling Jiaye raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at her for a few seconds. "I also said that I never mind whether you are married or have loved other men. I just want you."
Ling Jiaye looked at her with no expression on his face.
Why? There wasn't much contact or bond between them, so she didn't understand why he was so obsessed with her.
"You're just feeling the novelty of it. You've never had it before, so you're unwilling to give it up. It's like a toy you haven't gotten yet."
Ling Jiaye felt a little disappointed. "Why do you doubt my sincerity? I don't think my love for you is less than Xu Buyan's."
He didn't show it, but in his heart he was jealous of Xu Buyan's luck. He just acted before him.
He paused and continued, "Then how do you determine your position in Xu Buyan's heart?"
"Xu Buyan...he is serious about me."
He would not treat her as a toy, he respected her, and even if he was jealous he would not interfere too much. His love was more cautious than she imagined.
"You and I haven't tried it, why do you deny my existence?" Ling Jiaye felt a little bitter and unwilling.
"If it weren't for him, it wouldn't work. I only have one heart. I gave it to Xu Buyan, and I can't give it to anyone else."
She also wondered why she chose Xu Buyan.
Perhaps as early as that hot summer day in Yuchuan, that afternoon with heavy rain, she fell in love with the boy who held an umbrella for her, the boy who ran away blushing because of shyness.
She had fought hard for him, so she wouldn't let him go easily.
Ling Jiaye smiled bitterly. He already knew that she valued him very much.
The same goes for Xu Buyan. Some time ago, he attacked the Ling Group and directly snatched away the project that the Ling Group had been striving for. It was obvious that the Xu Group did not need it, but they still snatched it away.
At first, he thought Xu Buyan was trying to retaliate against him for colluding with Song Yingying, but he ended up warning him when he opened his mouth, "Don't touch Liang Qingmo."
He had been betting before, betting with Xu Buyan that Liang Qingmo didn't love him, but was just using him for the family fortune, and betting with Liang Qingmo that Xu Buyan wasn't sincere...
Haha! He really lost miserably.
......
In the box, the lights were soft and the aroma of wine was fragrant.
Xu Buyan sat on the sofa with a lazy look on his face, holding a glass of wine and drinking one glass after another.
He exuded a noble aura of sadness and loneliness, which made people look at him involuntarily.
Xu Buyan recalled the scene he had just seen and felt a little sad.
Liang Qingmo did not refuse Ling Jiaye's request, and the two left under his nose.
He wanted to trust her, to believe that she had her own way of dealing with it.
Since she chose to talk to him, it showed that she was capable of doing it well.
He had never trusted her before. He didn't trust what she said about liking her, nor did he believe what she did. He couldn't understand her sincerity.
But when he thought about her agreeing to Ling Jiaye's conversation without hesitation, he still felt uncomfortable.
We are still too kind to that guy named Ling. We should severely suppress the Ling family so that he has no energy to bother Liang Qingmo.
Just like Liang Yi before, although the Liang family is Liang Qingmo's maternal family, he can't show mercy to those who bully her.
......
Xu's employees were a little at a loss when they saw Mr. Xu drinking heavily after returning from the bathroom.
"What happened to our General Manager Xu?" someone asked curiously.
"He never normally attends gatherings like this."
"The drunkard's real interest lies elsewhere. You can tell what he's thinking at a glance."
"I just saw Liang Qingmo and Ling Jiaye leave."
"Oh my god, is she trying to have multiple relationships?"
"Will our President Xu be played around by her?"
"Maybe they're not that kind of relationship at all? They're just playing around."
There were speculations, concerns, attempts to allay public doubts, and some defending Xu Buyan...all kinds of remarks emerged one after another.
"That's what I said. How could our President Xu possibly like someone else's wife?"
"What do you mean someone else's wife? She's my wife!"
Hearing this, everyone was stunned.
"Mr. Xu, you are drunk."
“I’m drunk, Liang Qingmo is also married to me.”
Xu Buyan's words surprised everyone even more. "Be more polite to your CEO's wife in the future. Don't let me find out that you are saying bad things about her behind her back."
When it comes to Liang Qingmo, he becomes eloquent and seems to have endless things to say.
Someone curiously asked him, "Mr. Xu, are you and Miss Liang just dating?"
Even when drunk, Xu Buyan said without hesitation: "We are already married."
Hearing this, the man blinked, digested his meaning, and then suddenly became excited with the people around him.
