The next day, around noon, Liang Qingyu finished the work at hand and was about to go to the cafeteria when her cell phone rang.

When she saw the incoming call reminder, she frowned and her first thought was to hang up the phone, but reason stopped her.

She answered the phone, and soon a familiar yet annoying voice came from the other end.

"I thought you were going to hang up on me?"

Liang Qingyu said bluntly , " If you continue to waste my time like this, I will hang up on you."

The person on the other end of the phone seemed to be choked by these words, and after a pause of several seconds, he spoke again.

"I need to discuss something with you at work. Come to my office now."

The tone was one that could not be refused.

Liang Qingyu only felt angry after hearing this, and gritted her teeth and said , " Have you checked the time now?"

"I want to talk to you about work, not time. If you insist on arguing with me about time, I have to remind you that my time seems to be more valuable."

"Thank you Li Cheng!"

"You don't have to shout my name so loudly. If you want to do business with me, you should accept everything in the business world."

Liang Qingyu seemed to be poured with a bucket of cold water and instantly came to her senses.

She had to admit that Xie Licheng was right.

In order to gain the cooperation of Xinghua Village Resort, she can use all her time and even lower her own posture.

Today, the cooperation with Shengyao is far more valuable than Xinghua Village.

Under normal circumstances, her attitude should be more humble, and at least she shouldn't care whether it was close to the end of get off work.

The reason why he vented his anger wantonly was simply because of the person opposite him.

How could she have such an idea?

She shouldn't be so out of control. On the contrary, true letting go should be calm.

Liang Qingyu, this is just your job.

Thinking silently in her heart, her expression regained its composure and she said , " I know, I'll be there right away."

After hanging up the phone, she asked her secretary to prepare the relevant documents without any hesitation and rushed directly to Sheng Yao.

Just work.

Shengyao's office.

After Xie Licheng heard the call was hung up, he was not too happy, because the tone of the woman's last sentence was too calm, like a pool of stagnant water.

He actually hoped that she would get angry with him, at least she was lively.

He was silent for a moment before letting Liu Wen come in to order the food.

Asking Liang Qingyu to discuss work was secondary. His main purpose was to have lunch with her, otherwise he would not have chosen this time.

No matter what she thought, he would use this cooperation to draw her own cage.

Liang Qingyu arrived at the office smoothly. As soon as she entered the door, she smelled the aroma of food and her stomach growled twice.

Her face flushed, and she happened to meet the man's gaze, and for a moment, the heat on her face became even hotter.

"You are here, come and sit down."

Xie Licheng waved at her as if he didn't hear the voice.

Liang Qingyu frowned slightly, but did not move. "You said you came here to discuss work?"

"Yeah, eating and talking at the same time, is there a problem?" Xie Licheng disagreed, "That's how it is when you're busy, you have to squeeze out even the basic time for eating, you should understand."

Liang Qingyu pursed her lips, but did not continue to be in a stalemate. She walked over and sat down opposite him.

The food on the table was enough for two people, and even the dishes were her favorites. This person must have prepared it in advance.

Liang Qingyu didn't know what to say, so she looked at him and asked, "What are you talking about?"

Xie Licheng listened to this and smiled helplessly, "Fill your stomach first, you'll have time later."

" Liang Qingyu replied dryly, "And I'm not hungry— "

Before she could finish her words, her stomach growled again.

Her thin face suddenly turned red uncontrollably.

Xie Licheng had a smile in his eyes. He didn't say anything, but just placed the opened lunch box in front of her.

Liang Qingyu didn't try to be stubborn anymore and took it and ate it.

Seeing her start eating, Xie Licheng also picked up the lunch box and started eating.

There was a rare peace between the two of them. There was no quarrel or argument, just like before.

Liang Qingyu felt that the person opposite was looking at her, and her brows slightly frowned, but she didn't say anything.

Until the person opposite suddenly spoke.

"Don't you think we're going back to the old days, when you would wait for me at home every day to - "

Liang Qingyu suddenly put down her chopsticks, her face as cold as ice.

She raised her eyes and looked at the man in front of her. Even though she didn't say anything, the coldness in her eyes was enough to make him swallow what he was about to say.

"Xie Licheng, should I remind you that during those days of waiting, how many times did you come back?"

Xie Licheng's face turned pale, "I ... "

"No need to explain. I know you were holding a beautiful woman at that time. Maybe you shouldn't let me accompany you for dinner today. There should be someone suitable in the company."

Xie Licheng heard these sarcastic words. He frowned slightly and stared at the woman opposite him.

"I don't."

Liang Qingyu didn't say anything, but the sarcasm in her eyes revealed her distrust.

How can a man who chooses to be with another woman on their wedding anniversary be worthy of her trust?

Xie Licheng read her emotions from her eyes. He had a headache, but no matter how much he told about the past, the people in front of him might not believe it.

"I was not good in the past, but I definitely did not go out of line. Today, these meals are also prepared for you, you should be able to tell."

Every dish is specially prepared by him and is in line with Liang Qingyu's taste.

"As for Shen Ruqiu, the way I handled it before was wrong. I listened to you and moved her away from me. I haven't seen her in the past few days. I promise that I will maintain a proper social distance from her in the future. ”

These words made Liang Qingyu stunned for a moment, and then she looked away from the man and said, "Why are you talking to me about this? Your affairs have nothing to do with me."

"How could it be irrelevant?"

Xie Licheng was a little unhappy. He could realize his mistake, but he couldn't accept the woman turning a blind eye.

He leaned forward slightly and reached out to grasp the woman's wrist.

"Liang Qingyu, who am I changing for? Can't you see?"

Liang Qingyu looked at him. The warmth on her wrist and the heat in the man's eyes seemed to materialize, burning her eyes and her skin.

Her eyes began to move away and her breathing became faster.

This atmosphere made her feel a little uncomfortable.

She lowered her eyelashes to hide the panic in her eyes, and her voice pretended to be steady.

"Let me go first. Don't forget the main purpose of our meeting today. You said we were just discussing business. If you don't want to talk, I'll leave."

Xie Licheng was really angry, and this person used his words to stop him.
