Mr Indifferent CEO, Be Careful With My Heart

Chapter 211 - Business Match-up

*********

CHAPTER 211

Li Jing had hit a soft spot in Mr Lin’s heart and she could feel it as she saw the pain flash before his eyes.

It was obvious she touched a forbidden topic. Whatever had made her mother who had everything to run away was definitely something big and not supposed to be touched or brought out.

She could see that he was struggling with himself and was obviously not yet ready to speak about that topic. Regardless, he braced himself and was ready to tell her when she beat him to it. "I am sorry. You do not have to tell me if it is hard and painful for you. I can wait for when you are ready."

A pained smile formed on his lips as he looked at Li Jing. "Thank you."

"Anytime. Just know that I am here for you and I am not going anywhere."

"I hope so. I hope so."

While Li Jing was busy with her grandfather, Ye Cheng arrived at his own location. He got there at exactly the stipulated time and proceeded to the visiting living room to meet up with their guest.

The moment he entered, he caught sight of his father dialing a number and bringing his phone to his ear to make a call. He did not need a second telling with what was about to happen. The old man was about putting a call across to him.

If there was one thing he learnt from his father, it was not to be late to any event, meeting or for anything in fact.

Clearing his throat, he attracted the attention of the gentlemen and lady sated in the living room as he took several steps in. "Good afternoon, father, Mr Fang. A pleasure having you here."

"Ye Cheng. Afternoon. Welcome. You are right on time as always," Mr Fang complimented but Ye Cheng only smiled at him before turning his attention to the damsel waiting her turn.

"Miss Fang Qiuyue, good afternoon. Looking a stunning as ever. Compliments of the season." He flashed her one of his trade mark smile before moving to sit down at another cushion from the rest.

"Hmm, Ye Cheng."

"Yes father?"

"Mr Fang and I were discussing before your arrival. It would be nice if you get to know, Qiuyue better, don’t you think?"

"It os not a bad idea father. I would create time for that." Fang Qiuyue who had already been told the reason of her being there today felt insulted by his words and was infuriated.

What did he take her for? Did he know just how many guys are asking for her hand, yet she refuses them and he is here thinking of creating time for her.

"What I meant was for you to seat close to Qiuyue. Do not leave her to be by herself."

"Ohh, I believe, Miss Fang Qiuyue wouldn’t mind. We can still talk irrespective of where we are seated, don’t you think, Miss Fang?"

Leaving her with such a predicament, Fang Qiuyue’s anger only increased but she had to bottle it up and keep up a smiling face for the sake of appearances.

"Why, yes. I do not mind."

Dang! Ye Cheng nailed it. He kept her at the spot he wanted her to be and she had no choice but to accept it.

Since Ye Sheng had disrupted his plans with Li Jing, he had no plans in making his father happy or the guests as well. He was going to be blunt while being normal and having a decent conversation.

"You see."

Ye Sheng clenched his fist tight on his seat. He had tried to hide it but Ye Cheng still caught sight of it. He had a certain inner joy from watching his father’s frustration.

’Yes, now we are even. I lose, you lose too.’ Ye Cheng thought again.

They first of all started with small talks and then slowly, they began to move over to the business sector.

It was already boring enough for Ye Cheng who had to listen to the same things over and over again but given his current situation, he just had to bear with it and wait for when this mental torture would be over.

"I see that you have really helped maintained Dream Star’s reputation as the number one leading company for the two years since you took over the company. Sheng must be very proud of him."

"Indeed. I am proud." Even though himself and his son were not in speaking terms, he was still proud of his son’s achievement but what normally pained him was that Ye Cheng never listens to him and now he couldn’t even take credit for teaching him.

He was a chip off the old block. He had inherited his intelligence from both his parents and was a prodigy.

On the other hand, as the men praised Ye Cheng, Fang Qiuyue began to feel herself. It would make sense to be the wife of the most successful bachelor.

"All that is left now is for him to find that lucky lady and settle down, then produce an heir," Mr Fang Qiang added. Fang Qiuyue’s smile widened at the mention of a lucky lady.

Everyone already knew where the discussion was going, it was just for someone to hit the nail on the head.

"I think there would be no need to search so much as our Fang Qiuyue here is still single and well mannered. It would also help move our companies to greater heights if both heirs were to be joined together in matrimony."

"What!"

"That would be great."

Both heirs said at ones and Ye Cheng did not even bother to spare her a glance anymore.

It was true that she was beautiful, nevertheless, he wasn’t moved by her beauty and what was worse, he had started falling for someone else.

"What is what? I mean, since we are going to do business together and giving Qiuyue’s background, she is an obvious wise choice for you, don’t you think so, Fang Qiang?"

"I do."

’Bloody hell, are these people okay?’
