Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Zhou Tingyang waited in the Yuebo Blue Sky Hall for almost 40 minutes, but Lin Wanli was nowhere to be seen. There had never been anyone who could make him wait for so long. However, just as Lin Wanli had said, Zhou Tingyang did not dare to throw a tantrum and leave because he knew very well that Lin Wanli might not agree to meet him anytime.
Lin Wanli wore down Zhou Tingyang’s patience and slowly appeared in her white high heels.
This was the first time Lin Wanli sat in front of Zhou Tingyang after the nightmare in her previous life. However, this sc*mbag’s vicious face was still so distinct and hateful.
“Miss Lin, don’t you have a sense of time?” Although Zhou Tingyang had told himself not to get angry, he still couldn’t help it, especially in front of Lin Wanli.
“I remember there was one time when you asked me out for a meal. You didn’t even show up when the restaurant was closed. If I don’t have a sense of time, then what do you call that?” Lin Wanli put down her bag and took off her glasses, revealing her exquisite and deep eyes.
“Forget it. Today is not to fuss over such trivial matters. I asked you out purely because I wanted to know what you want before you’d give up on Zhenzhen and her mother/ Don’t you think it’s shameful for you to destroy other people’s lives?”
After hearing Zhou Tingyang’s words, Lin Wanli’s lips curled up slightly and she revealed a ridiculous expression. She asked, “Are you going to pretend that you don’t know if I don’t say anything? Destroying other people’s lives, don’t you find it ironic when you say these words?”
“I Imow that you’ve liked Ye Zhenzhen since you were young. The reason is that the Zhou family’s status isn’t acknowledged in the wealthy circle, and you feel that you are in the same boat as Ye Zhenzhen. Wasn’t a fake wealthy family and a fake heiress a perfect match?”
“Lin Wanli, you’ve already been expelled from the Lin family. What right do you have to say these words?”
“But will Ye Zhenzhen appreciate your kindness?” Lin Wanli laughed. “You can’t be serious. Are you really that naive to think that you are the only one Ye Zhenzhen has? Her goal in life was to steal everything from me. With her status as a true heiress now, do you think she would still set her sights on you?”
Zhou Tingyang’s heart was hit, and his eyes instantly turned red. Unknowingly, his right hand also clenched into a fist.
“You will never understand the relationship between us.”
“I don’t understand, and I don’t intend to understand. Addicted to cheating on someone, trampling on the word ‘morality’ on the ground, destroying other people’s lives for the so-called true love.” Lin Wanli retorted sharply, “I know very well what kind of people you are, so put down your hypocritical mask and maybe I’ll still think highly of you.”
No one knew when it started, but Zhou Tingyang was always at a disadvantage in front of Lin Wanli no matter what he did or said.
He was unable to refute and asked again, “How far do you want to go? If you have hatred, then come at me. I know you hate Zhenzhen for snatching me away…”
“Stop!” Lin Wanli rolled her eyes speechlessly. She said, “As long as you have some self-awareness, you’d know I won’t be daydreaming about something like that. Zhou Tingyang, let me say it again. I’ve never liked you. It’s not because I despise your fake wealthy background. It’s because you don’t have anything that others like.”
“Then I’ll make it clear. You’re only the Vice-Chairman of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce now. As long as Zhenzhen and I work together, you have almost no chance of winning. I advise you to stop. If you want compensation, we can still discuss it. If you want to fight to the death, it will not benefit you at all.”
After hearing this, Lin Wanli leaned back and looked at Zhou Tingyang coldly. She said, “You don’t have the attitude to apologize, and you don’t have the attitude to beg for help. You want to maintain your dignity, but you also want others to agree to your unreasonable requests unconditionally. You don’t want to pay any price, but you want to get the benefits you want. No wonder you and Ye Zhenzhen can never be seen in public.”
“You don’t…”
Zhou Tingyang wanted to force Lin Wanli to do his bidding.
However, at this moment, a well-dressed middle-aged couple walked to Lin Wanli and Zhou Tingyang’s table.
“President Liu, what a coincidence. Why are you here?” When Zhou Tingyang saw the person who had come, he immediately became polite and reasonable. This was the Zhou Group’s biggest client, so he naturally had to welcome him with a smile.
However, after the other party glanced at him, he shifted his gaze to Lin Wanli and said, “Unfortunately, I’m here for Miss Lin. To be honest, I’ve been asking about Miss Lin’s schedule for a few days. I’m finally lucky to see you today.” “President Liu, were you looking for me?
“It’s like this. I want to ask you to help me negotiate a collaboration.” The other party was afraid that Lin Wanli would reject him, so he offered her a tempting offer.
Lin Wanli smiled and looked at Zhou Tingyang. She asked, “Even if you have to end your cooperation with the Zhou Group?”
Zhou Tingyang’s expression changed immediately. He hurriedly said, “Do you think cooperation is child’s play? How could President Liu agree to such an unreasonable request?”
President Liu glanced at Zhou Tingyang and confirmed with Lin Wanli, “Is it that simple?”
“It’s that simple.”
“That’s great. I thought Miss Lin would have other difficult requests. I’ll call the company now and get the legal department to terminate the contract.” President Liu was completely immersed in the joy of Lin Wanli agreeing to negotiate. He did not care about cooperation with the Zhou Group at all.
Zhou Tingyang panicked and quickly said to President Liu, “President Liu, we’ve been working together for many years and have been very happy. You can’t void the contract between the two families just because of her words.”
President Liu’s moment of happiness was interrupted by Zhou Tingyang. President Liu said unhappily, “Do you know how many people in Jinchuan are lining up to invite Miss Lin to work with them? Not to mention a mere Zhou Group, even a super corporation of the same status as the Yue Group would have to speak nicely and respectfully to Miss Lin. I advise you to go back and deal with our contract. I don’t want Miss Lin to be unhappy.”
Lin Wanli crossed her arms as she admired Zhou Tingyang’s flustered attitude. She said, “So this is what you meant by having no chance of winning? There is indeed no chance of winning.”
“Miss Lin, it’s not convenient here. I wonder when you have some time for us to discuss this in a more detailed manner?”
“I’ll get my assistant to contact you.” Lin Wanli said directly.
President Liu nodded immediately and said, “Then I’ll wait for your good news, Miss Lin.”
After saying that, he was very tactful and turned around to leave with his female companion.
“Zhou Tingyang, it’s been two years. I thought that you would have improved after kneeling in the corridor outside the hotel. I didn’t expect you to be so short-sighted. I don’t know if it’s because you’ve been with Ye Zhenzhen for so long.”
“I’m really, truly begging you. Please look in the mirror..”
