Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Bai Xue stood there in shock for a brief mont before her expression darkened. She uttered coldly, “I spotted Uncle Li Yan’s car at the school gate. It’s no wonder you’re acting this way. So, you’ve been sleeping with Uncle Li Yan!”‘
Jiang Ling’er felt an urge to give Bai Xue a piece of her mind but managed to restrain herself. She retorted, “You can either give up on Li Yan and compete with , or you can cling to him tightly and not let go. When Li Yu publicly acknowledges our relationship, I’ll use my seniority to put you in your place!” “You can’t seriously believe Li Yu likes you, right? Stop daydreaming.”
Jiang Ling’er sneered, “Ti will tell. But instead of focusing on , perhaps you should figure out your situation with Li Yan.”
Bai Xue panicked and tried to save face, saying with a forced smile, “What situation? Li Yan and 1 are perfectly fine.”
Jiang Ling’er, with a sly grin, pressed further, “Oh, really?”
Bai Xue beca even more flustered as she saw Jiang Ling’er’s mocking smile. Desperate to defend herself, Bai Xue exclaid, “Of course! Li Yan loves and will definitely marry .”
Jiang Ling’er, observing Bai Xue’s anxious deanor, said tauntingly, “Is that so? Well, that’s great. I hope you beco the Young Madam of the Li family soon. I won’t keep you any longer. Goodbye.”
Thinking Jiang Ling’er had backed off, Bai Xue assud a more arrogant tone and warned, “Jiang Ling’er, heed my advice. Stay away from Li Yu. Otherwise, you might end up with nothing.”
Jiang Ling’er remained unfazed. Regardless of what Bai Xue said, she believed that Bai Xue was simply scared.
A little farther down the path, Jiang Ling’er took out her phone from her bag and turned off the speaker.
She held the phone and comnted, “Did you catch that? Your niece-in-law has quite the imagination.”
Li Yu said, “So, you beat her at her own ga and used as a shield to provoke Bai Xue. Not a bad move.”
Hearing Li Yu’s teasing words, Jiang Ling’er beca embarrassed and coughed a few tis to cover her embarrassnt. “Please include this,” she said.
Li Yu, adopting a serious tone, remarked, “Ling’er.”
Jiang Ling’er was already feeling guilty. After all, she had used Li Yu just now. She said, “I’m here. If you need anything, just let know.”
Li Yu then said, equally serious, “I’m genuinely curious about what Li Yan’s reaction will be if you beco my girlfriend.”
Jiang Ling’er remained silent, unsure of how to respond to Li Yu’s teasing.
Li Yu continued, “Bai Xue claid that you and I slept together. While it’s a misunderstanding, 1 must admit it sounded good to personally. I wouldn’t mind if more people misunderstood.”
Jiang Ling’er couldn’t help but twitch the corners of her mouth. Wasn’t Li Yu’s desire for people to misunderstand a bit unconventional? Was there sothing wrong with his head?
Just as Jiang Ling’er was about to reply, Li Yu added, “In fact, I like the sound of that. If you’re willing, 1’11 publicly announce that you’re my fiancee.”
Jiang Ling’er pretended not to hear and said, “What? Sorry, 1 couldn’t hear you clearly. The signal here is a bit unstable. I’m going to hang up.”
With that, Jiang Ling’er abruptly ended the call, wearing a cold expression. She couldn’t believe how patient and crazy Li Yu was being. Wasn’t he just using her as a shield? Did he need to make such a fuss?
Li Yu, gazing at his phone, smiled to himself. Jiang Ling’er had chosen to play deaf again, but he was confident he could cure her of that.
As the afternoon approached, Li Yu returned to his office.
His assistant promptly presented so important docunts that needed his signature, summarizing the morning’s eting.
Li Yu carefully reviewed the docunts, and after ensuring everything was in order, he signed them.
Seeing that Li Yu was in a good mood, the assistant recalled that he had ntioned searching for soone in the morning. The assistant had a pretty good idea what had happened. He cautiously comnted, “Boss, you seem to be in high spirits today.”
Li Yu proudly responded, “Isn’t it obvious? So, tell , why do you think I’m so happy?”
The assistant hesitated for a mont before cautiously suggesting, “Could it be that you’ve taken a liking to Miss Jiang?”
Li Yu smiled and replied, “I’m not entirely sure, but every ti 1 see her, my mood brightens.”
The assistant thought about it and said, “I’d like to say a few words. But please, don’t take offense..”
