Tycoon is Hen-pecked - C197

When Zuo Zixian woke up again, it was already morning. The faint golden sunlight spilled in lazily from the window, accompanied by the sounds of people and cars downstairs. Obviously, it wasn’t necessary to think about it as it was the peak hour of work right now.

She lay in bed for a while longer, then reached for the phone she’d forgotten all night and turned it on.

There was nothing above but the message from Tabolte to her about everything in the winery. Ling Yiheng, did not send any message.

She struggled to get up, feeling dizzy. She didn’t know if it was because of the fever, or because of the psychological effects.

It was almost ten o’clock when she finally got up from the bed. When she finished washing up, her phone rang.

She hurriedly rushed to the bed and picked up the phone, her heart thumping, but when she saw the name Rui Chen Yang, she immediately calmed down, looking a little disappointed.

It turned out that it wasn’t Ling Yiheng.

“Hello, Chen Yang?” Zuo Zixian hoped that his voice did not reveal his disappointment.

On the other side, Rui Chen Yang continued speaking in a warm tone, “Zhi Wu, are you still in Ming City? Shall we have dinner together? ”

In reality, this meal was one that Zuo Zixian owed Rui Chenyang, so she agreed without hesitation and agreed to meet him downstairs in her hotel in an hour.

After seeing her, Rui Chen Yang finally told her that the restaurant he wanted to take her to was full, and could only temporarily change to another one. Zuo Zi Wu did not have much of an appetite, so Rui Chen Yang decided to take it.

The two of them went to a restaurant in Southeast Asia. The decor was very local, the corridor was long and empty, with water on one side and boxes on the other. It was as if they had actually gone to Thailand and were having dinner on the river.

They followed the waiter to the private room. At the top of the corridor hung small, warm yellow lanterns, and Rui Chen Yang’s face was hidden in the shadows, making him look like he didn’t know what was going on.

As if they had been walking for a long time, they reached the innermost compartment.

Rui Chen Yang seemed to be very familiar with it. He first ordered a few signature dishes that he thought were pretty good, then passed the menu to Zuo Ziqian. However, she didn’t know what to say. In the end, she decided to leave the decision to him.

In terms of food, she was not a particularly picky person.

She sat opposite of Rui Chen Yang quietly. She should have eaten this meal with him wholeheartedly and thanked him for his help at the winery, but the scene of Ling Yiheng and Mika dating in the cafe kept appearing in her mind, and she couldn’t get it off her mind no matter what.

“Scholar?” Rui Chen Yang’s call brought her back to reality. He raised his eyes to the man in front of him, and his eyes flashed, “Ah? “What’s wrong?”

Rui Chen Yang considerately poured a cup of wheat tea for her and passed it to her. He said with a tone of worry and helplessness, “You look terrible, did you not sleep well?”

She didn’t know how to reply. She touched her face and vaguely said that the time difference might not have been properly adjusted. That was why she was not used to it.

Rui Chen Yang did not ask much, but just casually chatted with her about the recent weather and asked her about the situation of the winery. He knew that the operation of the winery was now normal, so he calmed down.

“Oh right, Zixian, you didn’t arrange anything tonight, right?”

His sudden question stunned Zuo Ziwen for a moment, and he shook his head. In Ming City, there was no one other than him and Ling Yiheng that she knew. Even if there were, they were business partners, and for no reason at all, it was impossible for her to meet anyone else.

Rui Chen Yang laughed, “That’s good, I’ll take you to a place tonight to meet my friends, it will also save you the worry of being alone here.”

Seeing that he was sincere in inviting him, Zuo Zixian could not think of a reason to reject, so he could only agree.

The Thai dish, the Left Scholar, ate very little, but it was still fresh after a rare meal. Especially the seafood, it was very big and very tasty, and while the Left Scholar ate to his heart’s content, it also allowed her to put down the matter regarding Ling Yiheng.

However, not long after his head was emptied, Rui Chen Yang’s voice came from above him, “You came to Ming City, did you see Ling Yi Heng?”

He knew he didn’t need to ask this question, but he was still a little bit lucky and wanted to know the answer.

Zuo Zixian almost choked on a mouthful of fish, he took a big gulp of fruit juice to calm himself down, and his expression turned even more unsightly, “I saw it.”

It was just one simple word, but it already made the light in Rui Chen Yang’s eyes darken.

Zuo Zizhen felt uncomfortable all over, although he knew how Rui Chen Yang felt about him, this was exactly what she didn’t want to face the most.

While thinking, she took out an empty cup and poured herself a glass of red wine, then helped fill his cup and lifted it up, saying, “Chen Yang, I want to thank you for your help all this while. I hope we can always be good friends. I must treat this meal. ”

He was stunned by her sudden action, but quickly recovered and clinked glasses with her with a smile, not saying anything more about Ling Yiheng.

In fact, he really hoped that Ling Yi Heng wouldn’t become a problem between them, but it was obviously impossible at the moment.

They did not drink much alcohol, probably because the food was too delicious, Zuo Zizhen’s appetite was sparse, and he ate a lot more than usual.

“Would you like another dessert? The Thai dessert here is also very good. ” At the end, Rui Chen Yang asked again, as if he was afraid that she wasn’t full yet.

Zuo Ziqian hurriedly shook his head, “No need, I’m already full.”

He nodded, and took another sip of the wine. After a short pause, he opened his mouth again, “Zixian, I want to ask you a question.”

Zuo Ziqian’s heart tightened, but it was not good not to listen to him, so he could only stare at him, quietly waiting for the question he wanted to ask.

“Can you give me a chance to pursue you?” His tone was light, as if he was afraid of scaring her.

Zuo Zixian was shocked, he had originally thought that he would not accidentally hear such a question from his mouth, because she already knew how he felt about her. However, when she heard him ask her so seriously, she was really scared. She could only look at him blankly and didn’t say anything for a long time.

Rui Chen Yang’s heart sank bit by bit, seeing her reaction, he knew that she had a different idea than him. But even so, he did not want to give up the opportunity.

It was the first time that he was so moved by a girl, and it was also the first time that a girl reminded him of a feeling he had not felt in many years. Thus, no matter what, he wanted to fight for his own life.

Zuo Zixian felt his mouth go dry and his heart race. Only after taking a big gulp of barley tea did he calm down.

She carefully looked at the man in front of her and tried to think of how she could say it so that she wouldn’t hurt him.

However, before she could say anything, Rui Chen Yang’s phone rang. He apologized and went out to answer the phone, much to Zuo Zixian’s relief.

He had been out on the phone for about five minutes, and by the time he returned, Zuo Zixian had already adjusted his mood.

Seeing him walk in, she asked, “What is it? “If you need anything, you can leave first. I’ll take a taxi back to the hotel.”

Although she already knew how to respond to his question, she was still willing to avoid such an awkward situation.

Rui Chen Yang shook his head, paused for a while, and smiled: “Nothing, my secretary asked me where I put the documents.”

She understood and immediately saw his expression turn serious. It was obvious that he wanted to continue the conversation.

Clearing his throat, Zuo Zizhen mustered up his courage and said to Rui Chenyang, “Chen Yang, I really cherish our friendship. As for the rest, I can’t agree to that for now. Maybe, in the future. Can you understand? ”

If there were a few people in this world that she did not want to hurt the most, then Rui Chen Yang was definitely one of them. Besides, she didn’t want to lose such a good friend.

Rui Chen Yang’s response was to purse his lips and smile, his beautiful eyes were filled with the warm light from the top of his head, his eyes were clear and bright, and his outline was even more beautiful.

“I understand, Zhi Wu, I’m not in a hurry. At least, you didn’t completely reject me. ” His smile also made Zuo Zixian feel relieved. He was glad that he wasn’t the kind of person to fuss over things and never get angry or make things difficult for others.

Suddenly, Ling Yiheng’s figure appeared in her mind. It was all his domineering and forceful expression, and his attitude of wanting to control her regardless of anything. It was as if he was in a completely different position from Rui Chenyang.

She should have hated his domineering attitude the most, but it had left a deep imprint in her heart, and it also left the most intense emotions in its wake.

“Chen Yang, let’s go.” Realizing that he was daydreaming again, Zuo Zixian quickly returned to his senses and said to Rui Chenyang.

He had no objections, and he had truly let her treat him.

When they walked out of the restaurant, it was already past one o’clock. Rui Chen Yang suggested taking her for a walk, but Zuo Zi Shi politely declined. She said that she wanted to go back to the hotel to rest and meet him again in the evening.

Rui Chen Yang sent her back to the hotel before leaving, while Zuo Zixian once again fell into his own thoughts.

Thinking about Rui Chen Yang’s confession to him, he regretted not agreeing. In reality, she really shouldn’t continue tangling with Ling Yiheng, and Rui Chen Yang was undoubtedly the best choice.

He had an elegant demeanor. He was outstanding, but he did not make a fuss about it. He had a gentle temperament and was a rare golden bachelor. He was the role model that countless girls dreamed of. But why couldn’t she accept him?

Ling Yiheng… How could she get the name out of her mind?

Zuo Zixian sat by the window and looked at the leaves mottled by the sunlight. He seemed to see the shadows of Ling Yiheng and Rui Chenyang in a daze. One on the left and one on the right, they were all affecting her mood.
