Chapter 305: Breaking off the Engagement, Absolutely Not Agreeing
Chapter 305: Breaking off the Engagement, Absolutely Not Agreeing
If Cui Ling could get such a relationship, she would have no regrets in her life.
What a pity... Thinking of her seriously ill mother and her younger brothers and sisters who had to go to school, Cui Ling bit her lower lip and decided to let these thoughts go away. She was not a princess, and she would not meet a prince charming. The most important thing was to do her job well and get a salary to share the burden of the family.
I originally thought that the president went into the office to work, and I was still worried that the coffee I made today was not to his taste, but he grabbed the car keys and went out. I was confused. It took me a while to realize why he asked me to look after Lin Yuqing in the lounge and asked her to notify him when she woke up.
Time passed minute by minute, and when Lin Yuqing woke up, it was already around 5 p.m. She looked at the time and saw that it was almost time to get off work. She got up, put on her clothes, then opened the door of the lounge and walked out.
As soon as I left the lounge, I saw Cui Ling at her post. She quickly stood up and bowed, "Mrs. President, are you awake?"
Hearing this, Lin Yuqing paused and looked at her differently.
Cui Ling froze, her smile becoming unnatural. "What, what's wrong?" Damn, had she said something wrong again? Fear in her eyes, she took a step back. "I'm sorry, Madam President, I..."
Seeing her frightened look, Lin Yuqing could only look at her helplessly, and then sighed: "You don't have to be so restrained, just call me Yuqing. Whether you are the president's wife or not is still an uncertain matter." When she said this, Lin Yuqing's eyes were a little dim. Xiao Mingyang loved her, but she had never thought about being the president's wife.
"How could that be? I can see that President Xiao loves you very much."
Lin Yuqing just smiled and said, "Don't be so polite to me. I used to be his secretary too. Just call me by my name."
"Huh?" Cui Ling's eyes widened in disbelief as she covered her mouth with her hand. "So you too..." She was surprised but also secretly delighted. "So Cinderella can really be with Prince Charming?"
She muttered the last sentence, but Lin Yuqing didn't hear it. She just looked at her with a faint smile, and then asked, "Where is your president?"
After hearing this, Cui Ling came back to her senses: "The president has gone out for something."
"Going out?" Lin Yuqing frowned: "What did you go out for?"
"I don't know about that, but the president told me to buy you a cup of hot milk when you wake up. Please go into the office and wait. I'll go downstairs to buy you milk right away." After saying that, Cui Ling turned around hurriedly.
"Eh?" Lin Yuqing wanted to say no, but she had already left in a hurry.
Helpless, I could only sigh and walk towards the office.
"Ring, ring, ring--" Suddenly the phone in the office rang. Lin Yuqing stopped and had to turn back and pick up the phone.
She had worked as a secretary before, so she was very familiar with this job. "Hello, this is Xiao Group. How can I help you?"
"Let your president answer the phone." A majestic male voice came from the phone. Lin Yuqing was stunned and said quickly: "I'm sorry, our president is not in the company because of something. If you have anything to say, I can pass it on for him."
The other party was silent for a while, then said, "You are Xiao Mingyang's secretary, right?"
Lin Yuqing paused and nodded: "Yes."
"Then please tell him that he wants to cancel the engagement, but our Bai family doesn't agree!"
What? Lin Yuqing's eyes widened. Break off the engagement?
"Pah! Beep!" Before she could reply, the other party had already hung up the phone. Lin Yuqing was stunned. Breaking off the engagement?
Could it be that the call just now was from the Bai family?
Thinking of this, Lin Yuqing put down the phone, her face becoming serious. Could it be that Xiao Mingyang had gone out to deal with this matter? He said he would give her a satisfactory answer within three days. Could it be that...
Just as she was lost in thought, she heard a bang outside. Lin Yuqing felt puzzled and walked out. Yu Wei walked in furtively, holding some documents. Lin Yuqing found it very funny and walked over to pat her on the back: "What are you doing?"
"Ah..." Yu Wei was startled and jumped up, clutching her chest. When she saw that it was Lin Yuqing, she breathed a sigh of relief. "You scared me to death! What are you doing?"
"That's why I asked you what you were doing. Why are you acting so sneaky, like a thief?" She just didn't understand why she ended up like this when she came to the office with documents in her arms.
"Mr. Xiao is not here?" Yu Wei asked with narrowed eyes.
"No."
When she heard that she was not there, Yu Wei sat down on the chair carelessly, took the coffee on the table and drank it, then said while drinking: "You should have told me earlier, if I had known he was not there, I wouldn't have to hide like this."
"What's going on? Why are you avoiding him?"
Putting down the coffee, Yu Wei sighed, "I'm not hiding from him, I'm just afraid he'll see me and assign me another task!"
Ever since Yuqing moved into the Xiao family mansion, it has been difficult for her to see her. Asking her to go to the Xiao family is too abrupt, and because of her physical condition, she doesn't dare to ask her out casually. So when she heard that she came to the company yesterday, she pretended to deliver some information and wanted to see her.
However, someone stopped her out of selfish motives and assigned her a lot of tasks, forcing her to work overtime.
That way, he could have her all to himself.
Thinking of this, Yu Wei's heart was filled with anger, and she said angrily: "Humph, how stingy, you won't even give me a little bit of time, Yuqing, your man is too domineering and possessive."
"What?" Lin Yuqing really didn't understand what she was saying: "Why do you suddenly say that about him?" Indeed, Xiao Mingyang has always been domineering towards her, and his possessiveness must be extremely strong.
So Yu Wei had no choice but to tell her everything that happened yesterday. After listening, Lin Yuqing was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
She came to see him yesterday, but then they went into the lounge, and later... she was so tired that she fell asleep. I guess Xiao Mingyang was afraid that she was tired, so he didn't let Yu Wei see her?
Unexpectedly, Yu Wei was still brooding over this matter and had to hide from her when she came to find her. It seemed that she had to find a time to talk things over with Xiao Mingyang.
Thinking of this, Lin Yuqing could only comfort him softly: "Okay, I will talk to him and ask him not to assign you too many tasks and make you work overtime."
"Don't tell me. If you tell me, I'm afraid someone will get angry and do more to deal with me. That would be terrible." Having said that, Yu Wei looked her up and down again, and then her eyes fell on her neck, where there were faint red marks. She clicked her tongue.
