Chapter 33: Engagement (5)

Ji Liunian’s heart skipped a beat. Then, she picked up a folder and hit Liu Menghan. “What nonsense are you talking about? I didn’t know Ling Yichuan before this. Besides, how many beautiful women are there around him? Why would he like my type?”

Despite her words, Ji Liunian thought about how he had inexplicably called her to the conference room that day and what he had said at the end. It did seem like he treated her differently.

Also, she had scolded him at the mall the day before yesterday for being a ‘two-timing playboy’. The next day, he came to Xinghua Corporation. Did Liu Menghan really have it right? That all of this was intentional…

She shook her head. That was impossible. She refused to believe that Ling Yichuan had come especially for her. She had already expressed that he was not her cup of tea and that she was already engaged. Ling Yichuan had not come to Xinghua Corporation at all in the past few days. That day when he came for the inspection… It was probably just for work, right?

The reason why he called her to the conference room was because she was the person in charge of that project. So… everything was just a coincidence?

Liu Menghan wanted to say something, but Ji Liunian stood up. “Alright, I’m going to submit this week’s report. If you have time, help me to sort this pile of information. I’ll check through later.”

With that, she turned around and left before Liu Menghan had a chance to speak.

Liu Menghan’s words made her think of something else.

Although she did not believe that Ling Yichuan had any special feelings for her, she and Ling Yichuan had… after all.. Judging from his performance that day, Ling Yichuan obviously remembered her.

Although she had never met Ling Yichuan before—after she got engaged to the Yu family—she often heard people talk about him. Ling Yichuan was a relative of the Yu family. By all accounts, he should be Yu Yichen’s cousin.

Ling Yichuan’s step-grandmother was the great-aunt of the Yu family. Although the Ling family did not seem to like such relatives and were not very close, Chen Yiqun was a snob. Ever since she married into the Yu family, she had always considered herself to be a relative of the Ling family.

However, no matter what was the state of relationship between the Ling and Yu families, these two families would still meet in the future, right? At the very least, on the day of her wedding…

Forget it. Why was she thinking so much? Whether she and Yu Yichen would even have a wedding was another matter. The last time when they were supposed to buy a wedding dress, he had kicked her out of the car. She did not know what would happen the next time.

Which woman had not fantasized about her wedding? A holy church… A white wedding dress… A man she loved… A promise to love each other for the rest of their lives… Even if Yu Yichen did not love her…

But now—because of Ling Yichuan—she wished she did not have to hold a wedding!

She handed the report to the general manager’s office and went to the information desk on the first floor to return the information. Just as she was about to press the elevator button to go upstairs, a slender hand with well-defined joints suddenly covered her hand gently!
