Chapter 225: Chapter 225: Yang Xiaofei’s Conflict
"In heat, are you?" Wang Chenning chuckled slyly. "I can tell. Your hormones are peaking right now. Perfect for getting pregnant!"
"Go to hell!" Yang Xiaofei couldn’t take it anymore. She snatched up the laptop in front of her and hurled it straight at Wang Chenning.
At a time like this, that bastard was still joking with her. This was the last straw; her temper finally erupted.
Wang Chenning was startled. He quickly reached out and caught it, tossed the computer onto the sofa, and turned to flee.
As he fled, he left one last sentence: "I’m taking Lv Qinglan with me! I’ll bring her to the Li family tonight. Wait for my good news!"
Yang Xiaofei wanted to chase after him, but when she reached the door and saw that Wang Chenning had already escaped into the elevator, she gave up.
After sitting back down in her chair, Yang Xiaofei no longer had the heart to deal with work.
’What is wrong with me? Am I really in heat?’ she thought, touching her still-burning cheeks, a little angry at her own behavior.
She knew Wang Chenning was deliberately teasing her, but she had still fallen for his games. Her composure and dignity had been thrown completely to the wind.
Yang Xiaofei had always thought of herself as the abstinent type; it didn’t matter to her whether there was a man in her life or not.
But ever since receiving Wang Chenning’s treatment, she had lost her first kiss without even realizing it, and she’d even become a little captivated by his domineering ways.
Her body and her heart were slowly surrendering to him.
Wang Chenning claimed he was still a virgin, and Yang Xiaofei believed him. She felt he wouldn’t lie about something like that, but his skilled technique made her doubt.
’What kind of virgin could kiss someone until they completely lost themselves?’
She was just an innocent young woman who had no idea how to be intimate with someone...
The thought of the man who had kissed her doing similar things with other women made her feel very uncomfortable.
Because she was so exceptional, Yang Xiaofei was very possessive. She never let anyone touch what was hers.
And she wouldn’t easily let go of something she wanted to obtain.
But with Wang Chenning, these principles were completely useless.
’How is this man just like a poison?’ Yang Xiaofei was going a little crazy.
She didn’t know if she was captivated by his looks or his personality.
But Yang Xiaofei had to admit one thing: Wang Chenning was more outstanding than any man she had ever met. He was also very straightforward, a personality trait she admired.
All things considered, Wang Chenning was far superior to any man she knew. They weren’t even in the same league.
Moreover, Wang Chenning had the aura of a leader.
He was very ambitious, wanting to possess many things.
Yang Xiaofei could sense that Wang Chenning wouldn’t be satisfied with his current achievements. That much was clear from the high-profile, domineering way he had won over the great masters of the traditional medical world.
From what she’d seen, he wasn’t satisfied with what he’d accomplished so far. He didn’t seem to care about the Yang family’s fortune, nor did he give a second glance to anything the Li family, the Lin family, or even the Zhao family possessed.
In fact, Yang Xiaofei couldn’t even figure out what his true ambitions were.
’This man’s aspirations are just too high.’
Yang Xiaofei had always been proud. She felt that very few men in this world were worthy of her.
But after getting involved with Wang Chenning, she gradually felt that there was a difference in class between them.
And she wasn’t the only one who felt this way. Luo Yuqing and Zhao Xiao’an seemed to have the same attitude.
If that weren’t the case, how could those two proud women treat him with such deference?
Thinking about all this, Yang Xiaofei felt deeply conflicted.
Her rational mind told her that letting go was the right choice.
But she was extremely unwilling. Having met such an exceptional man, she didn’t want to let him go.
She had never lost before, and she didn’t think she should lose to anyone.
’Even if I have to let go, I’ll do it gracefully after I’ve succeeded. That way, there will be no regrets.’
’If I let go willingly after I’ve succeeded, I won’t feel so resentful.’
’Being dumped, being disliked, being ignored—I could never accept that!’
With that thought, she instantly made up her mind. This was what she would do.
’But... what will I have to give?’
’Do I really have to give him my body and soul?’
’So what if I give them to him?’ Her conflict quickly vanished. ’I might never meet a man more exceptional than him in my entire life. Who knows, maybe he can give me a youth full of roses. What’s the harm in letting myself go?’
Having made her decision, Yang Xiaofei relaxed completely. She was no longer conflicted and threw herself back into her work.
After leaving Yang Xiaofei’s office, Wang Chenning called over to Lv Qinglan, who had already finished packing, and told her to come with him.
Lv Qinglan, who had changed into a professional suit that accentuated both her figure and her aura, followed Wang Chenning with her head down through the lobby and out the company’s main doors.
Before, she used to walk through this area full of spirit, head held high and chest out in her high heels, basking in the looks of admiration and respect from others.
But now, she was met with gazes of pity and contempt. She had truly fallen from grace, and humiliation was written all over her.
She wouldn’t accept this!
She would reclaim the glory that belonged to her.
On the way to the university in a taxi, Wang Chenning received a call from Zhao Xiao’an. She said she had finished up everything and was on her way, telling him to just wait for her at the school gate in fifty minutes.
Wang Chenning naturally agreed.
The taxi ride from Yang Xiaofei’s company to the university gate took half an hour.
After getting out of the car, Wang Chenning led Lv Qinglan to a street-side barbecue stand and ordered a pile of skewers.
Lv Qinglan mechanically followed him over and sat down across from him, her heart filled with immense anxiety.
While they waited for the food, Wang Chenning smiled and asked Lv Qinglan, "These past few days, you’ve gotten a taste of a different kind of life, haven’t you?"
Lv Qinglan kept her head down, not knowing how to answer him.
"Teacher Wang, I did wrong. I’ll be sure to correct my ways!" she finally replied in a soft voice.
Wang Chenning looked at Lv Qinglan with a half-smile. "If you perform well tonight, you can start working for me tomorrow!"
A tremor went through Lv Qinglan’s body, and she looked at Wang Chenning in disbelief.
After a moment, she seemed to understand Wang Chenning’s meaning and nodded lightly.
"If you betray me again, then no one will be able to save you!"
Those words from Wang Chenning made Lv Qinglan’s face turn deathly pale.
She quickly promised that she would work loyally and would never betray Wang Chenning, no matter what happened.
A short while later, Zhao Xiao’an’s car appeared in front of them.
As Zhao Xiao’an hopped out of the passenger seat, Wang Chenning handed her the barbecue skewers. "You must be hungry. Have something savory!"
Zhao Xiao’an took them and then looked at Lv Qinglan with a puzzled expression. "Why is she with you?"
"I’m taking her to ask Elder Li for something!" Wang Chenning said with a grin. "I’m treating him again today, so I should get some extra payment and compensation, right?"
Zhao Xiao’an immediately understood Wang Chenning’s meaning and was secretly alarmed.
’This guy... he’s already starting to scheme against Li Baoguo. Don’t tell me he actually wants to swallow the entire Li family?’
