In the end, Li Tingshen didnt agree to Ye Qingqiu being his boyfriend.
However, he allowed Ye Qingqiu to appear and disappear around him.
July 27.
Ye Qingqius coming-of-age ceremony.
Ye Jianyun gave Ye Qingqiu the greatest face.
Qingqiu Villa was an adult gift that he had prepared for Ye Qingqiu for three years.
European-style castles, fountains, gardens, pools, and lounges.
Inside and outside, there were all kinds of facilities.
On the day of the coming-of-age ceremony, the manor was officially opened for the first time.
The rich and powerful in Ping Cheng City, the young masters and young ladies, and occasionally a few A-list celebrities appeared one after another.
The luxurious villa and the dazzling gla.s.s crystals made everyone sigh.
As expected of the rumored princess of Ping Cheng. This is really a scene that only a princess can do.
The Ye family is really doting on this little princess.
Back then, Director Ye loved his wife very much, let alone the child his wife left behind for him. Even if he loved her, he had to dote on her deeply.
But I heard that this little princess has been ignorant and incompetent since she was young. The Ye family is such a big company. Will she be able to hold on to it in the future?
I didnt expect her to pick it up at all. Didnt she already find a candidate?
But hes tall, handsome, charming, and capable. With such a man, hes a winner in life.
Someone said enviously as he looked at the entrance.
The few of them followed her gaze and were stunned.
Li Tingshen was wearing an expensive suit. His long legs were wrapped in a well-ironed suit. His footsteps were steady and rhythmic.
He had a handsome and refined face. Even though he was in a bustling place and was being watched by many people, he remained expressionless and unmoved. He exuded an obvious sense of coldness and distance.
She was too cold.
Even if she wanted to seduce him, she didnt have the courage to do so.
Other than Li Tingshen, there was also the little princess.
Any woman knew her limits.
She couldnt be compared to Ye Qingqiu, who was young, beautiful, and had a good figure. She couldnt be compared to Ye Qingqiu, who was born n.o.ble and had the capital. She couldnt be compared to Ye Qingqiu, who was arrogant and domineering.
No one would be stupid enough to s.n.a.t.c.h a man from Ye Qingqiu.
That was because they had already lost before it even started.
However, there were also many people who were uneasy with the situation and liked challenges.
After all, Li Tingshens charm and Ye Qingqius pressure were just a matter of choice in the eyes of different people.
The Li Corporation was now managed by Li Tingshen. Considering his young age, in order not to let the employees and other higher-ups in the company question his ability, Ye Jianyun had partic.i.p.ated in some important meetings and project decisions. In reality, he was just a tool for Li Tingshen. All the decisions were made by Li Tingshen himself.
In this gradual process, everyone in the company had already accepted Li Tingshen as the future leader of the Li Corporation.
All of this was thanks to Ye Jianyuns nurturing and support.
He was grateful to Ye Jianyun.
In fact, Li Tingshen was involved in almost everything regarding the Ye Corporation. Ye Jianyun didnt even ask about some things and left him in charge.
Most people in the industry had heard of it.
With Li Tingshens appearance, there were naturally people who were tempted to go forward and chat.
It wasnt that he had never heard of the rumors about him.
However, it wasnt the truth and she couldnt be bothered to explain.
Exclamations sounded from the surroundings. Li Tingshen looked over and saw a tall and slender figure standing on the huge stage.
The girls clothes had always been neat and tidy. There were never many decorations or complicated designs on her clothes.
Simple yet comfortable and expensive.
She was wearing a simple white ta.s.sel evening gown that reached her knees. Her slender calves were especially beautiful and under the bright lights, they reflected a gentle whiteness.
Her long hair had been tied up to match her gown. Her hair was tied up low, and there was some hair on both sides of her face. She had meticulously permed her hair and was naturally beautiful with a hint of maturity.
This was the first time he had seen her dressed like this.
Her bright face and expression had always been flamboyant and unrestrained. Her confidence had turned into a kind of arrogance.
It was as if she was born to be envied.
Li Tingshens long and narrow eyes narrowed imperceptibly. For a moment, his eyes were like thick ink and it was difficult for him to move them.
On both sides of Ye Qingqiu were stairs. Ye Jianyun and Old Master walked down from behind.
Before they could say anything, Ye Qingqiu ran down the stairs.
Hey, Qingqiu
Ye Jianyun wanted to stop her, but when she looked up, she saw Li Tingshen standing not far away.
How could he stop her?
She shook her head and sighed helplessly.
This child had not changed at all over the years. In fact, she had even surpa.s.sed him.
The old man was displeased. Thats outrageous.
Ye Jianyun said helplessly, Im used to it.
The old man watched as Ye Qingqiu took the initiative to hold Li Tingshens arm and smiled happily. Li Tingshen, on the other hand, remained expressionless.
She pursed her lips and snorted. Her gaze swept across the huge banquet hall and she frowned slightly.
Wheres Xuer? No matter how bad their relations.h.i.+p is, she shouldnt hide her face at such an occasion. Is she deliberately creating a topic for others to laugh at?
Ye Jianyun looked around and felt a little helpless.
I dont think so. Im probably not ready yet.
The old mans face darkened.
If he had not seen with his own eyes that Ye Jianyun treated Liang Xuer well, he would have misunderstood that Ye Jianyun had mistreated her harshly.
What kind of personality did this child have?
No matter how hard she tried, she couldnt get close to him.
Ye Qingqiu wasnt short, but in front of Li Tingshen, she looked too cute.
Did you eat anything tonight?
Li Tingshens gaze landed on her face. She had light makeup on, but he couldnt find any flaws.
Her eyes were clear.
Perhaps there had always been one.
When facing him, the unconcealable love seemed to have merged with her and become a part of her.
His thin lips parted slightly and his low and clear voice sounded slowly. So theres nothing to eat at such a big banquet?
So you plan to eat in front of so many people?
Li Tingshen didnt say anything. Indeed, he didnt have the hobby of being watched by everyone.
Why dont we go to the kitchen? Ill get someone to make you something you like.
Youre the protagonist tonight.
No, the protagonist is my father.
How many of those people came to celebrate her birthday sincerely?
It was all for their own benefit.
Who didnt know?
As Ye Qingqiu spoke, she held Li Tingshens hand and wanted to leave. However, Li Tingshen pulled her back.
Dont be willful. There are many shareholders and partners here. You need to get to know them later.
Why would I know them? Its good that you know them.
Li Tingshen frowned and looked at Ye Qingqiu coldly.
Dont think about relying on anyone. No one will make you rely on them forever.
Ye Qingqiu gradually faced him and stared at him for a while. Then, she raised her eyebrows and smiled. Dont you know how to? I dont rely on anyone else but you.
Li Tingshens fingertips curled slightly.
Lets go. Ill bring you to eat first.
Li Tingshen didnt move.
Ye Qingqiu lost her patience. Ever since he promised her, he had never given her a definite answer.
Considering his temper, she knew that he wouldnt admit it, so she silently agreed.
But he never seemed to give him a sense of security.
He allowed her to approach him, but he kept his distance.
She took a deep breath and suppressed the anger that had acc.u.mulated in her heart. She controlled her temper and looked at him.
Speaking of which, what adult gift did you prepare for me today?
She suddenly changed the topic and Li Tingshen paused. Just as he was about to speak, Ye Qingqiu interrupted him.
Forget it, pretend I didnt ask. Im not in a good mood now. In the past, I would be happy even if you only gave me a piece of candy or a grain of rice. But now, other than giving me the only thing I want, everything else will be worthless trash.
The atmosphere between the two of them had changed drastically.
Ye Qingqius words were merciless.
Looking at Li Tingshens face, there wasnt much emotion.
What do you want?
Ye Qingqius lips curled into an unruly smile.
Youll give me whatever I want, right?
She didnt give him a chance to speak. Yes, today is my coming-of-age ceremony. Its once in a lifetime and it means a lot. Even if its mine you have to satisfy me, right? I dont think you can give me a gift that others might throw in your face.
Since you dont know what I like now, youll definitely be satisfied if I want it, right?
With so many people watching, Old Master Ye and Ye Jianyun were also watching.
Ye Qingqiu had no intention of giving Li Tingshen a way out.
I said, what do you want?
Li Tingshens expression was cold and calm. This sentence was repeated a second time without any ripples.
Ye Qingqiu pursed her lips and took a step towards Li Tingshen.
They were inches apart.
She raised her hand slowly and caressed Li Tingshens collar.
You really dont know? What do I want?
Li Tingshen lowered his eyes and narrowed them at her face.
Ye Qingqiu curled her lips and tilted her head slightly. The side of her face was tilted, causing her eyes to look charming.
Her hand finally stopped on his shoulder. She tiptoed and slowly approached him.
Dont think of leaving at any time. Li Tingshen, you can only be mine in this lifetime.
As soon as he finished speaking, he exerted some force with his right hand and kissed Li Tingshen.
