Chairman Husband, Too Boorish - Chapter 73.1

Chapter 73.1: Why are you so nervous when facing me?

At the door of the pantry, there Liang Xi Cheng stood with a backlight. His sexy thin lips were slightly pursed, but he had them upturned in an arc. There was not much of an expression on his face. However, his eyes were staring at Yan Liang.

Standing behind him was the director of the design department who had a pale face.

Looking at the embarrassed look of Yu Jingwei, she knew that eight out of ten that Liang Xi Cheng had heard what she just said.

Her heart trembled, and she felt guilty for no reason.

“Chairman Liang …” Yan Liang tightened the empty cup in her hand. She barely squeezed out a smile.

However, compared to the Yan Liang’s awkwardness at this moment, the loose-tongue women behind her were obviously more disturbed.

The woman who had just had the most fierce battle with Yan Liang had no energy now. She picked up the cup on the coffee table and wanted to leave, “Chairman Liang… Director, this… We’ll go back to work first. “

Naturally, several female employees did not dare to stay too much. All of them were ready to french leave [1].

“Do not worry.”

Liang Xi Cheng was still standing steadily at the door and didn’t intend to let anyone go. He had his hands behind his back. The warm sunshine poured in through the window behind him. It was as if he, who had initially been extraordinary, was illuminated by a layer of gold, making his whole person look dazzling.

He only said three words. Everyone was standing still and afraid to move.

Liang Xicheng’s tone was light, and it was still a familiar tone to Yan Liang. “Since I’m here. I’ll tell you something. I asked my secretary to come down to help you because your design department has been unable to come up with a design plan that I am satisfied with. Of course, you are all professionals. Although, my secretary graduated with a major in architectural design before, as you said, she has not touched this topic for a long time. She was suddenly placed into your team, and you did not adapt to this. I can understand. But I, Liang Xi Cheng, don’t think I have such a wicked eye for people. Secretary Bai has her ability or not. You still have to look at her drawings and come to a conclusion. Is there any problem? “

Every word he said protected Yan Liang.

Moreover, it was so obvious.

Yan Liang’s heart leaped. She bit her lips gently, her eyes dripping with water, and she looked at Liang Xicheng with a grateful light.

For the other female employees, this was akin to a self-slapping. Their complexion was all the colors in profusion [2] that they didn’t dare not to look at Liang Xicheng in the eyes.

“… No. There is no problem.” These words were being spoken by the woman who was yelling at Yan Liang before. They were probably unconvinced, but they couldn’t take it anymore, and their voices were dull. “Chairman Liang, we … we’re going back to work.”

Liang Xicheng nodded with no expression and signaled that they could leave. He then turned to Yu Jingwei and made it clear to him, “Director Yu, there are only ten days left. You know that I am bound to get it. If this municipal Party committee building cannot be obtained. You should know what to do when that moment comes. “

Yu Jingwei nodded his head, “Yes, Chairman Liang. I will do my best!”

Yan Liang looked at Yu Jingwei, who went away. She subconsciously lifted her feet to leave, but Liang Xi Cheng glanced at her and instructed: “Secretary Bai, there is a problem with some document. Come with me.”

As she watched him turn around and leave, Yan Liang thought about it for a while. She put the cup in the pantry room. Then, she hurriedly followed.

Liang Xi Cheng returned directly to his office. When Yan Liang passed his office without seeing Assistant Guan, she thought it was Liang Xicheng who asked him to go out to handle work. Thinking about it this way, they had entered the office. She then closed the door lightly.

As she raised her head up, she saw Liang Xi Cheng standing next to the desk with his hands across his chest while looking at her.

Yan Liang’s eyes flickered. She didn’t know if it was her own delusion. She always felt that the way Liang Xi Cheng looked with his eyes as if they were looking… with a sense of interest like watching a good show.

Yan Liang gave a cough. She stared very unnaturally, “…Chairman Liang, which document is it?”

“It regards the ‘gratitude’ document.”

Yan Liang unexpectedly lifted her head just in time to see his smiling eyes. There was a streamer moving in the depths of his eyes, which almost dazzled her.

Regarding on ‘gratitude’ document?

Yan Liang turned her head twice and soon to realize that he was waiting for her thanks.

She took a deep breath and trying not to look into his eyes. She managed to calm down afterward, “…Chairman Liang, I’m very grateful to you. I know about Rex, I didn’t expect there would be such an opportunity in my life. I know this because it was an opportunity that you gave to me… Thank you, Chairman Liang. “

In other words, it was reasonable to say so, but today Yan Liang found herself very nervous. When she talked, she almost looked down at her toes. She didn’t even dare to look at him straight.

Liang Xi Cheng seemed to be very dissatisfied with her thanks as he came straight to her.

As soon as Yan Liang heard the footsteps, she felt uncomfortable all over. It was as if she had a bad premonition.

Was there… Something wrong with what she said? Nevertheless… In fact, Liang Xi Cheng did hear the conversation between her and those women. Was he going to ask questions? After all, just now, she seemed to be really bit presumptuous. Should she run away now?

“Do you like to keep your head down when you say thank you?”

At the same time, as the low-pitched male voice sounded, Yan Liang felt that her chin had been lifted up. When she looked up, her vision was full of him…

His face, eyes, nose, and lips…

It was so close that she was forced to take a fresh breath: “Chairman Liang…”

“At least, when saying thank you, look at the other person’s eyes.” His voice was low, and his breath was warm. Yan Liang felt that her heart was almost no longer beating. “Come, look into my eyes and say it to me again.”

Yan Liang’s little face was red, and her whole person was tense, but her sight was all on Liang Xi Cheng. She couldn’t avoid it. She could only pinch her dress corner tightly and said in a less cursory way: “…Thank you, Chairman Liang. I really appreciate you. “

“Why are you so nervous?”

Liang Xi Cheng looked at her cheeks flushing, and even her two ears were red. He remembered when she was in the pantry room, she faced the women full of vigor and sharp looks. However, they looked at her in front of him now. It was weak, like a puddle of water. His heart was so soft that he leaned on her body uncontrollably as he said, “Isn’t Secretary Bai just excellent? Even I was surprised when I showed up earlier. How can you be​ a ‘yes-man’ [3]​ in front of me now? Huh? Oh. That’s right! You just said you recorded them, didn’t you? Just in time. I only heard the second half. Was the first half interesting? Come on, take it out and let me listen to it. “

Wha.. what? He wanted to listen?

Yan Liang was stupefied. This guy … Was he kidding himself?

“Chairman Liang… You…”

“En?”

“No… I…”

He seemed to be joking, “Well? What does Secretary Bai want to say? Don’t worry, speak slowly.”
