A Spoiled Little Wife - C766 What's your name again?!
Tian Lianjia sat at a seat close to the window and looked at the coffee cup in front of her. Although she pretended to be calm with her back to the door, her spine was still stretched tight, and the cup of coffee in front of her looked exactly the same. To her, every minute of waiting was too long.
She and Bai Dongting had exchanged glances below the stage, but that short exchange of gazes with each other did not let her understand any useful information or emotions. That man was not the least bit surprised that she was standing amongst the reporters, nor was he surprised by his exquisite makeup.
Even so, she still firmly believed in her heart that Bai Dongting would definitely recognize her!
After that, he told Old Master Bai and directly left the venue. It was as if he had never been here before, he waited for a long time but still didn’t see him come find her, so much that he didn’t get anyone to send a message to her … As Tian Lianjia thought about this, her palms couldn’t help but break out in a sweat. This man was simply too difficult to understand …
When she told Shen Dong that she would wait here, she was confident, but now, she was not sure if what she had said to Shen Dong was true or not. Maybe Shen Dong did not care, or maybe he did not pass on the information, or maybe Bai Dongting did not care, and he was too lazy to come over.
Tian Lianjia took a deep breath, the rise and fall of her shoulders were slightly obvious. If Bai Dongting came over, then all of this would be worth it, but if he didn’t come, then his actions could only be summarized with the word ‘stupid’.
Initially, when her mother contacted the Old Master Bai and received the call back, she thought that this matter had already been settled. The reason why she called Bai Dongting afterwards was just to be more polite and say ‘I enjoyed working with you’, but she didn’t expect that ever since that phone call, Bai Dongting didn’t have any response at all …
Now that the matters of the Lian Jia had been settled, the focus of everyone had shifted from the Lian Jia to the Bai Family, and up till now, she still had not gotten the chance to return to the Lian Jia. She was also from the Lian Jia! How could he not be anxious!
“Since you’re nervous, why do you need to see me?” Bai Dongting’s cold voice suddenly came from behind Tian Lianjia, scaring her a little, she subconsciously turned her head, only to see the handsome and tall Bai Dongting actually appearing one meter away from her without a sound. Shen Dong followed behind him, and the two people seemed to have appeared out of nowhere.
“I’m not nervous! It’s just that your sudden appearance gave me a fright. ” Tian Lianjia secretly relieved herself, but she was unwilling to admit that she was nervous.
“Is that so?” Bai Dongting laughed in a low voice and then directly sat in front of her. His long hands and long legs were casual, as though he wasn’t even the head of the family in the slightest. Instead, his words and actions were filled with a sense of frivolity.
Of course, he had the qualifications to be so arrogant. After all, becoming the Family Head at such a young age was something that no one had ever dared to think of in the past.
Bai Dongting caught sight of Tian Lianjia’s uneasy expression, his gaze landed on the cup of coffee in front of her casually and casually. Then he looked at her with amusement and paused for a moment: “No one can threaten my secretary, who gave you the guts!”
“If you had seen me earlier, I wouldn’t have done such a thing!” Tian Lianjia suddenly frowned, and looked at Bai Dongting as she spoke as if it was a matter of course: “When I first called you, I already said that I wanted to meet you, that I wanted to talk to you, and you also said that you would consider it …”
“What I said before was to wait until I’m interested, but I’m clearly not interested in you. Can’t you even hear me?” Bai Dongting interrupted Tian Lianjia for the first time, and said coldly: “Since I’m not going to explain myself, then you won’t understand, then I will explain myself a little more.”
“Am I not sincere enough?” Tian Lianjia never thought that Bai Dongting would actually have this kind of attitude. Looking at the puzzled expression on his face, Tian Lianjia’s beautiful face became even more obvious, with a bit of cherishing innocence and helplessness.
She almost didn’t understand Bai Dongting at all, this was because he hadn’t been back to the country for a long time, had always been doing things relatively low-key, and hadn’t heard too many rumours and rumors. Thus, her first impression was based on the media reports and the bits and pieces of the news.
Had her observations been wrong? Or is it … Was this man putting on an act in front of everyone? Or… Could this be an act? After all, he had someone he loved deeply … Tian Lianjia tried her best to analyze the situation, and her thoughts raced.
“It’s not that my sincerity isn’t good enough, it’s just that my temptation isn’t good enough.” Bai Dongting paused for a moment, and laughed coldly again: “Just say it directly! I do not lack women, nor do I need to work with you. To be exact, when grandfather first mentioned you, I did not intend to help you.
“You …” When Tian Lianjia heard these words, she couldn’t help but be completely shocked. She had previously thought of the worst case scenario, which was that Bai Dongting would refuse to cooperate with her. However, she never thought that she would be rejected to such an extent so cleanly that she didn’t even have a chance to speak … This caused her to be momentarily at a loss for words.
“It seems like you understand. That’s good.” After he finished speaking, Bai Dongting stood up and prepared to leave.
“Wait a minute!” Tian Lianjia didn’t want to give up this chance to see Bai Dongting at all. She finally saw him after great difficulty, how could she not fight for him! He was most likely her last chance! Therefore, Tian Lianjia quickly grabbed onto Bai Dongting’s hand, stood up and stuck to his side, then spoke with a soft voice: “Can you listen to what I have to say?”
Her soft body was separated by the suit and stuck close to Bai Dongting’s arm, but the man was not moved at all. Instead, he frowned slightly as he looked at the woman beside him and asked, “Last time, tell me, what was your name?”
Bai Dongting’s words made Tian Lianjia almost lose her balance. Although she was not born in Lian Jia, she was raised in the style of a young miss from a rich family, but Bai Dongting’s question was tantamount to humiliating her, causing her face to turn white, she stared at him in shock, tears rolling down her cheeks.
She said that she could be his secret lover, and she even said those words, but this man still asked her for her name …
“You don’t have the right to talk about cooperation with me, nor do you have the right to act coquettishly in front of me.” Bai Dongting’s tone had not changed as he generously met her gaze. “Your ego is so strong, how are you going to sleep with me as your lover?”
Bai Dongting revealed a face of ridicule, after he finished speaking, he immediately pulled out his arm, and left the coffee shop without looking back, while Shen Dong went to settle the bill, both of them did not even look at Tian Lianjia.
In Bai Dongting’s opinion, with a girl’s heart like hers, he simply couldn’t be considered as someone from the Lian Jia, and looking at her behavior just now, it was even more different from the confidence he had when she called him. In that moment just now, he felt that this woman was simply boring, and didn’t even want to take another look at his.
She was too weak. Whether she was an enemy or a collaborator, it was not worth him wasting his time over her!
