In the special office in Zhonghai, Ning Guangyao, who was hung up on, didn't know that Lin Ruoxi had fainted due to too much stimulation.
Ning Guangyao only thought that Lin Ruoxi was still mad at Ning Guodong and that he, as her father, wasn't welcome at all. He just shook his head and smiled bitterly.
As if he was reminiscing about something, Ning Guangyao took out his wallet. This wallet naturally wouldn't be used to store money or bank cards like ordinary people. In fact, it was mostly filled with small commemorative items, such as photos, business cards, or other small items.
What Ning Guangyao took out was an old photo that was stuck in the innermost part of the wallet and sealed with plastic. The old photo was slightly yellowed, but it didn't affect its clarity.
In the photo, there was a woman wearing the attire of a knowledgeable young woman from the past. She was holding a book and wearing a skirt. She was sitting on a stone stool and reading quietly, as if the outside world had nothing to do with her …
Ning Guangyao looked at the woman in the photo for a long time and was lost in thought. Suddenly, he was awakened by a knock on the door.
"Knock knock."
Ning Guangyao turned around and subconsciously put the photo back into his wallet. He turned around and stood up with a faint smile on his face, "Cuishan, why are you in Zhonghai?"
A middle-aged woman with short hair walked in from the door. She was wearing a rather dignified white suit. It was obvious that the woman paid a lot of attention to maintaining her appearance. Time didn't leave many traces on her face. She had a smooth face and a mature figure. She was wearing black high heels and her posture was graceful.
She was the daughter-in-law of the Ning family, Ning Guangyao's wife and Ning Guodong's mother, Luo Cuishan.
"You're not going back to Beijing and Guodong isn't going back either. So I had to come all the way from Beijing to see what's going on," Luo Cuishan glared at her husband, but the smile on her lips was warm.
Ning Guangyao was much gentler in front of his wife. His eyes were filled with sincerity. "It's not a big deal. You don't have to worry too much. Guodong did something wrong, so I stayed here to correct him. I'm planning to fly back to Beijing tonight. I'll be able to make it before the election. "
"Well, you never need others to worry about your work, but you have to tell me why you scolded your son!" Luo Cuishan couldn't help but say, "I just went to Guodong's place to take a look. He's so quiet. He's never been like this before."
A trace of anger flashed through Ning Guangyao's eyes as he said, "Don't worry about him, he'll be fine after a while. I've spoiled him too much, which has given him a bad temper. You'll follow me back to Yanjing in the afternoon. We'll talk about that brat later. "
After that, Ning Guangyao walked straight out of the office, obviously still angry about Ning Guodong's matter.
Luo Cuishan turned around and looked at her husband's back as he walked out of the office. Her eyes shone with an unfathomable light.
…
In the Lin Family's villa, in Lin Ruoxi's room.
Yang Cheng slowly pulled the curtains open, and the afternoon sunlight shone into the room, reflecting a faint golden light.
Lin Ruoxi had already woken up, but she did not get down from the bed. Instead, she quietly sat on the bed with her gaze fixed on the photo on the bedside table.
It had already been half an hour, and Lin Ruoxi did not show any signs of speaking. It was as if she had fallen into a spell that only she had created, completely isolated from the outside world.
Yang Cheng walked to Lin Ruoxi and flipped the photo over, cutting off Lin Ruoxi's sight.
"Stop looking, you still have a lot of things to do. Don't bother about people and things that don't need your attention." Yang Cheng frowned and said.
Just now, Wu Yue and Mo Qianni had called. After all, Yu Lei had just come back from the dead, and the stock index had skyrocketed. New product launches, press conferences, market seminars, and all kinds of meetings and decisions needed Lin Ruoxi as the chief commander.
However, Lin Ruoxi had fallen into a state of "paralysis" at such a critical time.
Yang Cheng did not attach much importance to the operation of Yu Lei International, but Yang Cheng could not accept Lin Ruoxi who had no energy and fighting spirit.
This woman, whom he used to call a "workaholic", when she really quieted down, the only feeling Yang Cheng had was fear!
It was unknown whether Lin Ruoxi had heard Yang Cheng's words, but she just silently raised her head, looked into Yang Cheng's eyes, and asked, "You already knew, didn't you?"
Yang Cheng was puzzled, but since Lin Ruoxi was willing to speak, he was relieved and asked, "What?"
"When that man died, I remember that a doctor asked the patient's family to talk to him. At that time, you were the one who went. If he had a medical record, you would definitely know …" Lin Ruoxi was naturally referring to the "Doctor Bao" who had been threatened by Yang Cheng. "You told me at that time that it was nothing important. Did you know the truth of this matter and deliberately hide it from me? "
Yang Cheng knew that he could not hide it, so he directly nodded and said, "Yes, because I never thought that this was something that needed to be known by you."
"Are you mocking me? Are you mocking me that it doesn't matter who gave birth to me and who raised me? Are you mocking me as a child that no one wants? "Lin Ruoxi asked with a sneer.
Yang Cheng shook his head, "You're wrong. All of this is because in my eyes, it doesn't matter where you come from. It doesn't matter whose daughter you were in the past. What matters is … where you are now. You are now my wife."
Lin Ruoxi was startled. She had been staring at Yang Chen's eyes the whole time, but she didn't feel any falsehood in Yang Chen's words. In this man's eyes, there wasn't a single trace of impurity. There wasn't a trace of his usual playfulness. Instead, he was smiling mischievously, as if he was talking about something serious.
Lin Ruoxi lowered her head, and her eyes were a little red. She bit her lower lip and did not speak.
Yang Cheng sat on the edge of the bed, and suddenly reached out a hand to touch Lin Ruoxi's delicate chin, making Lin Ruoxi raise her head.
Their eyes met, and Lin Ruoxi's eyes were a little moist, and there was a glimmer of water.
"You said before that we are all scorpions. The river can't drown us. The only thing that can kill us is our own uncontrollable poison stinger. If that's the case, why are you getting wet in the rain now, as if you have lost everything? "Yang Cheng said.
Lin Ruoxi looked at Yang Cheng affectionately for a while, and then said, "I'm just confirming how you see me. Who allowed you to preach to me?"
Yang Cheng was stunned for a while, but then he grinned.
Lin Ruoxi puffed up her cheeks, and a trace of red flowed over her face. She was unwilling to look at Yang Cheng, and said, "Don't say such mushy words in the future. Also, who allowed you to sit on my bed? Who allowed you to touch the photos on my bedside table? It's none of your business who I was born and where I was born … "
"You don't have to do this, I just wanted to comfort you." Yang Cheng smiled bitterly.
"What!?" Lin Ruoxi's almond-shaped eyes stared, "You mean, what you just said was false!?"
"Ah?" Yang Cheng hurriedly waved his hand, "Of course it's true."
"Hmph, then hurry up and get out!" Only then did Lin Ruoxi let go of her eyebrows.
Yang Cheng also felt that something bad would happen if he stayed, so he immediately patted his butt and ran out of the room.
Hearing the sound of Yang Cheng running downstairs, Lin Ruoxi, who was sitting on the bed, pursed her lips into a smile, and a touch of tenderness flashed across her eyes.
In the next two days, Lin Ruoxi finally recovered her usual spirit. After returning to the company, she decisively launched various measures to launch the new material products into the market, and invested the funds obtained from the war into more investments, causing the strength of Yu Lei to increase instead of decreasing.
Yang Chen wasn't idle either. Although the publicity of Star of Yu Lei was mainly carried out by Zhao Teng and Wang Jie in cooperation with Christen, as the director, Yang Chen still had to stand on the stage and say a few polite words while occasionally singing a duet with Christen.
Christen's popularity made Yang Cheng speechless. Since the first time she appeared, the population of Zhonghai seemed to be rising rapidly. The crazy fans that came from all directions gave Zhonghai's traffic bureau a headache.
Normally, it was the lowest period of the week, so the traffic in Zhonghai was also extremely congested. Moreover, some of the fans with high status were even more so, so the traffic police and security personnel couldn't afford to offend them.
Many of Christen's crazy fans even had the idea of taking the initiative to express their love. Every day, the entrance of her hotel would be filled with gifts, red roses, and other flowers. There were even crazy fans that attacked the human wall of security. Christen would occasionally meet a few "fish that slipped through the net". While she was amazed by Hua Xia's "tenacity", she was also very happy to sign autographs for those fans.
This time, the hotel that Christen was staying in was provided by Anxin's father, An Zaihuan. The Jade Clouds Hotel originally belonged to the Liu family, and An Zaihuan also did his best to sponsor the audition of Star of Yu Lei.
Yang Cheng didn't think that An Zaihuan was doing it for the sake of collecting dividends. He most likely thought that this would help him get closer to Yang Cheng, so he let him do whatever he wanted.
What made Yang Cheng feel the most helpless was that this little vixen, Anxin. She did whatever she wanted. This woman, who had always been imaginative, had a new interest this time — — being a host!
Under Anxin's strong request, Yang Cheng had no choice but to discuss with the program producer and let Anxin be the host of Star of Yu Lei with another famous male host of the TV station.
Anxin passed the rehearsal easily, but the male host beside her almost said the wrong thing. This was because he heard from the director of the TV station that Anxin was the daughter of the An family in Zhonghai, and she told him not to have any improper thoughts.
The poor male host was treading on thin ice the entire time, afraid that Anxin would think that he had some thoughts about her.
What surprised Yang Cheng was that because of Christen's arrival, Wang Jie and Zhao Teng also invited many other important guests before the start of the promotion.
Many popular singers in Hua Xia also fought to show their faces at the opening ceremony of Star of Yu Lei, saying some blessings, or taking the initiative to join the judging panel.
In the end, there were also a few famous Hua Xia kings and queens who were selected to join the judging panel. They weren't going to be in the finals with Christen, but they would appear in some important elimination matches. However, this was enough to attract people's attention.
The first weekend of early March arrived. The highly anticipated Star of Yu Lei audition, which had attracted a lot of attention before it even started, finally began.
As a newcomer who had been preparing for a long time, Hui Lin was finally going to go on stage. This seemed to have become the headline that everyone in the family was extremely concerned about, and they were waiting for the live broadcast with great interest.
At the same time, Yang Cheng, who had some time to slack off, received a call from Liu Mingyu.
Sister Liu sounded a little hesitant. She said on the other end of the phone, "Yang Cheng, my parents said … they want to see you tomorrow. Can you come?"
Yang Cheng said in surprise, "Of course. If you weren't busy, I would have gone to see them already."
"Actually … it's okay if you're not free …" Liu Mingyu suddenly said.
Although Yang Cheng felt that Liu Mingyu's words were a little strange, he just thought that she didn't want to trouble him. He smiled and said, "It's okay. Baby Mingyu, don't worry. Tell me what kind of people your parents are, so I can be prepared."
