News spread throughout HuanYu that the CEO of Li Group had just stood up for a lesser-known artist under his subsidiary, KT. Most people took my words to interpret ‘my employee.’
As a result, female artists at KT were all blushing and walking with their chests puffed out!
In the VIP lounge upstairs.
After the secretary brought in two cups of coffee, she discreetly left the room, neatly closing the door behind her.
The spacious rest area was suddenly left with only Rong Yan and him.
The oppressive atmosphere in the air was so intense that Rong Yan was the first to break the silence, asking, “Mr. Li, why did you call me up here?”
Li Shengxiao picked up his coffee cup and took a sip, frowning slightly.
The coffee these days was getting worse, not even as good as the instant coffee he drank yesterday!
He put down his cup and looked up at the girl not far away, whose very hair seemed to comfort him. In a deep and melodious voice, he asked, “Why didn’t you call me this morning?”
How was she supposed to answer this question that was akin to sending her to the gallows?
Li Shengxiao slowly undid the button at his collar with one hand, his eyes narrowing slightly, “Or maybe I should ask in another way, Rong Yan, do you need a boyfriend?”
Rong Yan, do you need a boyfriend!
Even though she had already been shocked once, Rong Yan still felt as if she was about to be blown away. Her heart skipped a beat and she quickly said, “Um… I’ve mentioned before that I have a boyfriend.” “Would you mind switching to another one?” Would you mind switching to another one?
Rong Yan could hardly breathe.
Had he gone mad?
Her eyes widened, but she quickly responded, “I’ve been with my boyfriend for five years, and we have a great relationship…”
She had used this line before. It was exactly the same, translating to plain language – a straightforward rejection!
Surprisingly, Li Shengxiao didn’t get angry. His thin lips even curled up as he said another line, “Then would you mind having one more?”
Rong Yan,
She suspected that something must have hit his head on the way out, or perhaps he had been possessed by an alien.
Even if he wanted to be a male mistress, she didn’t have the courage to keep the CEO of Li Group as a lover, hey!!
Rong Yan mustered her courage, “My boyfriend would mind.”
She thought that with such a bold statement, Li Shengxiao wouldn’t pursue the matter any further. To her surprise, the next second, her soul almost left her body.
“Your ‘boyfriend’ you mentioned, is he my son?” Your ‘boyfriend’ you mentioned, is he my son! Your ‘boyfriend’ you mentioned, is he my son!
My son!
Rong Yan was stunned on the spot.
How… How did he find out! Could it have been Duidui…
Impossible!
Rong Duidui was tighter-lipped than anyone; she would never betray her!
Then how did Li Shengxiao know?
Six out of Rong Yan’s seven souls had flown away, and her mind was a complete blank.
“Wasn’t it you who left the Ryan Hotel’s room 808 that morning five years
Room 808 at the Ryan Hotel. At first, Rong Yan clung to a shred of hope, guessing that he was just testing her. But hearing him articulate the precise time and place, she felt completely overwhelmed.
Li Shengxiao really did know!
“There’s no need to deny it; I’ve already obtained the hotel’s surveillance footage from that year. Although the footage from the 80th floor was wiped clean, I checked the footage from the elevator entrance. That person, that person was you.”
It was you!
Rong Yan was at a loss for words, not knowing what to say anymore.
She didn’t know how to explain.
After all, she was indeed the one who had a fling with him that night. But admitting it would make it look as if she had plotted against him, as if she had deliberately trapped him..
