Fated to My Billionaire Husband
Chapter 2797: Proactively Inviting Li Qian to Dinner"Then you two should head back, I’ve got something to do, I’ll go first."
Xiao Lang gave a faint smile, then strode past Li Mingxi.
From beginning to end, he didn’t say a word to Li Mingxi.
"Sister Mingxi, see you next time." Wen Ning smiled, then hurried to chase after Xiao Lang.
Jian Yufei looked back at the two of them, then turned to Li Mingxi. "What’s going on with you and Xiao Lang?"
Li Mingxi smiled naturally. "Nothing."
"Be honest, did you two have a fight, or did something else happen?"
Li Mingxi couldn’t stand it. "There’s really nothing between me and him. If you don’t believe me, forget it."
"Fine, if you won’t talk I can’t force you. But who was that girl just now? The way she was looking at Xiao Lang..."
"Her name is Wen Ning. I’m guessing he’s going to start something with her."
"Huh?!"
"I’m leaving. I’ve got to get back to work." Li Mingxi didn’t say anything more and directly pulled Jian Yufei away.
Seeing that Li Mingxi’s expression didn’t look good, Jian Yufei didn’t dare to press her.
If she wanted to know the truth, she could just have Ruan Tianling look into it.
Jian Yufei had come in the Ruan Family’s car. She first had the driver take Li Mingxi back to the hospital, then she went home.
...
Back in her office, Li Mingxi just couldn’t calm down.
Why were Xiao Lang and Wen Ning at that restaurant? Were they there to eat too?
If so, how far had things gone between them?
The more Li Mingxi thought about it, the worse she felt, as if a huge boulder was pressing on her chest, making it hard to breathe.
It was also like someone was about to cut a piece of flesh from her body, and she couldn’t bear it at all.
But that piece of flesh was something she herself had chosen to give up. Even if she wanted to cry, she could only shed tears in her heart.
Supporting her forehead, Li Mingxi leaned on the desk in discomfort, more and more fed up with the way her life was now.
She had sworn that she would live each day free and easy, without worries.
But looking at the way things were now, in the days she had left, could she really keep being carefree?
Maybe it was time to cut the knot with one clean stroke.
Love could not be the entirety of her life.
She wasn’t worthy of love, so she might as well keep being carefree. One more day of happiness is one more day earned.
...
Li Mingxi picked up her phone and dialed Li Qian’s number.
"Hello, Li Qian, are you free this afternoon? Come pick me up, let’s go eat."
This was the first time Li Mingxi had ever taken the initiative to ask Li Qian out for a meal.
Li Qian laughed. "A great beauty treating me to dinner, what an honor. Wait for me, I’ll definitely be there on time to pick you up."
"Then I’m hanging up. Bye." After ending the call, Li Mingxi knew she no longer had a way out.
With no way out, she could only charge straight ahead.
Li Mingxi, you can do this!
Quitting time came quickly, and at the hospital entrance Li Mingxi saw Li Qian’s car.
Li Qian was wearing a handmade white shirt, his hair styled with wax, very neat and sharp.
He was holding a bouquet of roses in his hand, his tall, lean figure leaning against the car door. His mature, handsome features drew the gaze of every woman who walked past.
Li Mingxi walked toward him, and Li Qian stepped forward a couple of paces, handing her the roses.
"These are for you."
Taking them, Li Mingxi smiled. "Next time, buy some other flowers. I don’t like roses."
Li Qian raised an eyebrow. "Don’t all women love roses?"
"I don’t like red roses."
"OK, I’ll remember that."
Li Qian opened the car door for her, politely inviting her in.
Once Li Mingxi was seated, he closed the door, walked around to the other side, and got in as well.
