MTL - Dressed As Scum A Marked the Crazy Beauty Boss-Chapter 99
The relationship between Cheng Jiqing and Lan Qi was suddenly exposed in the middle of the night in Copenhagen.
Someone retweeted a breaking news from the Zhihu group, and after it was posted on Weibo, under the heat of exposure of Cheng Jiqing's love affair, it quickly fermented.
"Let's Let's Go" Cheng Jiqing had always been a dude in the circle before, and her reputation was very bad, including that I hated her very much (before!), and later found out that she sold Cheng's shares and cashed out one billion yuan. I feel that this person is useless and short-sighted... Until I got in touch with Lanqi's internal staff because of work, I accidentally learned that the person who invested in Lanqi behind the scenes was Cheng Jiqing! It can only be said that what you thought was not what you thought. When everyone was not optimistic, Cheng Jiqing sold his shares and invested in another industry... and he hit all the shots, Blue Flag went public in a few months, let's put it this way, Even without the Cheng family, Cheng Jiqing's current net worth is one of the best in Beicheng. As far as this courage and vision, you taste... When the rumors about maintenance came out, Cheng Jiqing himself was probably in a daze. '
In the early morning of the next day, Cheng Jiqing saw this trending search.
She made a cup of coffee, added two and a half spoonfuls of sugar, walked to the balcony and handed it to Bai Xin.
The weather changes from day to day, the haze from yesterday has dissipated today, and it feels like the moon is shining through the clouds.
Cheng Jiqing frowned: "Song Ling, the shooter, is looking for..."
She almost believed that she was an investment expert.
Bai Xin took a sip of his coffee, with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "That's a good compliment."
It can be heard that Bai Xin is in a good mood.
When Cheng Jiqing heard this, he turned his head to look, and saw that Bai Xin was wearing a thick white down jacket, holding a cup of coffee, with a faint smile on his fair and charming face.
She rubbed her thumb against Bai Xin's prickly dimple, and said, "It's fine if you agree."
The previous discussion with Cheng Jing was that Bai Zhaoliang couldn't get any money from Cheng's, and needed another party to appear to induce Bai Zhaoliang.
And now it just so happened that the point she and Bai Xin disclosed became this stall. Relying on this trending search at that time, it would not be very abrupt to expose her bargaining chips from netizens.
But it's a start.
"How about Zhou Yushu?"
"It's all arranged."
Zhou Yushu put pressure on Bai Zhaoliang as early as yesterday, forcing Bai Zhaoliang to find funds.
As expected, Bai Zhaoliang will contact Fu Rongjun again, and Fu Rongjun has no choice but to find Cheng Jing in the end.
"You really trust Cheng Jing to help you instead of her mother?" Bai Xin asked suddenly.
Of course Cheng Jiqing couldn't guarantee it.
Love cannot be underestimated, especially family love.
But Cheng Jiqing said: "I am willing to believe in Cheng Jing, because I really want to calm everything down."
Same idea as her.
In the morning, she actually talked with Cheng Jing on the phone, and it was also about Lanqi.
Except for Bai Xin, no one around her knew about her investment in Lanqi, and no one knew about it even within Lanqi.
Even for this Zhihu article, she let Song Ling get out of it.
For her, she concealed the matter of investing in Blue Flag at the beginning, just because she didn't want to be noticed, to make money, just make a fortune silently. At that time, things around were in a mess, and I didn't want to cause trouble for myself.
Although Cheng Jing was surprised on the phone, he didn't say much.
They chatted about an event from long ago.
That should be the first time she went to Cheng's after time travel.
Cheng Jing took her to meet several shareholders and proposed the latest investment plan. When she said that Lanqi had great potential, no one was optimistic about it.
Including Cheng Jing.
But at that time, in front of everyone, Cheng Jing still stood by her side and protected her. If at that time, she insisted on investing in Lanqi, maybe Cheng Jing would agree to her.
Leaving aside the emotional connection in the past, Cheng Jing treated the identity of 'Cheng Jiqing' with heart.
On the phone in the morning, Cheng Jing once said that he didn't expect it.
Said once, happy for her.
The voice was very soft, not like Cheng Jing's strong voice in the past.
Cheng Jiqing likes to judge whether a person is sincere by looking at his eyes and tone of voice.
Perhaps because of this, Cheng Jiqing felt the change in Cheng Jing's heart, and also felt his sincerity.
Therefore, she is willing to believe in Cheng Jing.
What she hopes more is that this time can be an opportunity for them to truly let go of each other.
This matter requires the cooperation of Cheng Jing.
As long as Fu Rongjun can't get money from Cheng's, and Bai Zhaoliang can't get funds, he will be shaken by the current situation.
In the afternoon, there was news from Beicheng.
Fu Rongjun sold a villa in the center of Beicheng for cash.
Undoubtedly, the money ended up in Bai Zhaoliang's hands...
The sun is overhead, Bai Xin has been ill for two days, and today he is finally in good spirits.
Cheng Jiqing led her to the street, the sun was shining on the city buildings like gold, and the wind was still cool, she grabbed Bai Xin's hand and stuffed it into her pocket.
"Fu Rongjun still doesn't understand Bai Zhaoliang. If Bai Zhaoliang is not fed once, Bai Zhaoliang will continue to ask for money after taking the tens of millions."
Bai Xin's voice is clearly cold, but his eyes are warmer.
Because Cheng Jiqing was looking at her.
Cheng Jiqing looked down at her, and smiled: "But Fu Rongjun won't be able to pay any more in the short term."
No one is a fool, not even Fu Rongjun.
Even if it is a handle, even if it is a big handle.
There are always times when she is pushed, Fu Rongjun loves face very much, and selling the house is her bottom line.
No matter how hard Bai Zhaoliang pushed, it was impossible to get anything for the time being.
"That's right." Bai Xin stopped, walked around in front of Cheng Jiqing, put his other hand into Cheng Jiqing's pocket, and hugged him: "There is one last step."
Finally, the news that Cheng Jing handed over the shares and control to Cheng Jiqing was to be disclosed to Bai Zhaoliang.
To let Bai Zhaoliang know about the current situation, Cheng Jiqing is not only married to his daughter, but also owns the treasure of the Blue Flag, and the Cheng family—the only person who can satisfy his greed and bring him back to life is Cheng Jiqing.
It was impossible for him to get a penny from Fu Rongjun again.
It's time for him to give up Fu Rongjun.
Cheng Jiqing lowered his head slightly, and pressed it against Bai Xin's forehead, the tip of his nose was sour from the cold breathing, but she could still smell the fragrance of a woman, which was fascinating.
She said softly: "Miss Bai, guess, should Bai Zhaoliang contact you first, or come to me directly?"
"President Xiao Cheng, do you want to make a bet with me?"
"How do you bet?" Cheng Jiqing asked.
"I won. You promised me one thing, and you can't refuse anything. And vice versa."
Why is it so familiar?
Cheng Jiqing thought for a while, then nodded, "Okay, it's up to you."
Bai Xin smiled with satisfaction, and said to himself: "I guess he will come to you directly."
Cheng Jiqing had no choice.
But she thinks that Bai Zhaoliang is still very likely to go to Bai Xin first, after all, Bai Zhaoliang should know it well, with her, he has no face.
The bet is reached.
The wind was blowing outside, and the people around were wrapped in heavy cotton-padded clothes and scarves, walking briskly.
The orange-yellow afterglow is like a huge light, lighting up the whole city.
The two stood under a fountain pool in the center of a square, their figures elongated by the light.
Cheng Jiqing asked, "Is it cold, go back?"
Bai Xin refused, and half leaned against Cheng Jiqing's arms.
She knew that the future would be long, but when she was with Cheng Jiqing, she always hoped that time would slow down.
She was obsessed with being alone with Cheng Jiqing.
Cheng Jiqing could only hold him tighter.
"Xinxin, we still have a lot of time," she said.
Cheng Jiqing understood Bai Xin's intentions.
"Cheng Jiqing."
"Um?"
"Didn't the bet just now remind you of anything?"
"…ah?"
"You think again?"
With a breath of cool wind pouring into his mouth, Cheng Jiqing realized for the first time that the words "stay on the front line so that we can meet each other later" are so profoundly warning to the world.
Can she not want to?
The action of Bai Xin poking her palm told her, no, she couldn't think about it.
That was before Bai's birthday, before they broke up.
Bai Xin made a wish with her in advance.
That wish was to ask her to promise one thing on her birthday.
"It's my birthday, I went to Jiangcheng to find you..."
Cheng Jiqing pursed his lips and listened to Bai Xin's complaint: "I went to you with a cake I made by myself. I just wanted to see you. You clearly agreed that you would promise me no matter what. I just wanted to see you. But that day Do you remember what you said?"
Cheng Jiqing: "..."
"You said, sorry, I'm going to break my promise this time."
Bai Xin clearly reproduced the text message at that time word by word.
Cheng Jiqing: "..."
It stands to reason that from the point of view of the matter at that time, the particularity, and objectively speaking, there is no problem with her answer.
But hearing Bai Xin's voice suddenly lowered, Cheng Jiqing couldn't refute.
I can only listen to this 'book'.
"Well... it's over now." Cheng Jiqing just wanted to end this topic quickly, not for anything else, because she had a premonition of what Bai Xin would say later.
"It's fine to break your promise, but you still had dinner with other women that day."
Bai Xin thought about the situation at that time. She sat in the car and watched Cheng Jiqing and Qin Yufu sitting face to face in the restaurant.
She is like a passerby, like a stranger, who can't even get close.
"...Didn't I also get angry at that time?" Cheng Jiqing's words didn't have much force.
Even though she was innocent at the time, and under the grievance and resentment of the woman at that time, she also willingly admitted it.
Looking back, I really feel sorry for Bai Xin.
Bai Xin didn't listen. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and the more he talked, the deeper his breathing became.
"You even gave Qin Yufu a gift!"
Cheng Jiqing: "...? What gift?"
Cheng Jiqing was totally unaware.
Bai Xin said: "You broke your promise on my birthday and gave something to others on my birthday. Cheng Jiqing, tell me the truth, did you change your mind a little at that time? Tell me quickly."
Cheng Jiqing: "...well, wait a minute, what gift?"
How come she has no impression at all? What gift did she give Qin Yufu?
In the memory of Bai Xin's upset just now, it was almost her inner demon at that time. The tone was still there, and Cheng Jiqing didn't comfort her. It turned out that Cheng Jiqing's next answer was not satisfactory.
She pushed away from Cheng Jiqing's arms, her expression changed: "Shouldn't you answer first that you haven't changed your mind?"
Cheng Jiqing choked, for a moment, only knew that the atmosphere was very familiar, and dreamed back to the shadow of the 'Master of Changing Faces'.
Therefore, tenderness and sweetness, gentle whispers, have a time limit with Miss Bai.
Cheng Jiqing hooked Bai Xin's waist, pulled him back into his arms, thought for a while and thought it was funny, and said patiently, "If I change my mind, why would I be in front of you now?"
Cheng Jiqing actually knew that this sudden attack was just a matter of reconciling with her, if it didn't happen, he would just keep thinking about it in his heart and not be happy.
It was on purpose.
Cheng Jiqing thought carefully about the so-called gift.
Finally thinking about it, she explained: "When I went on a trip, Qin Yufu did ask me to bring two bracelets for her. To keep her safe, I just brought them to her that day."
Bai Xin: "Then you also had dinner with her that day, and you ignored me, and your words don't count."
Cheng Jiqing hugged him again, and said innocently in a low voice, "That's not my fault, is it?"
Bai Xin stopped talking, took his hand out of Cheng Jiqing's arms, turned around, "I'm going back."
Cheng Jiqing looked at the posture, and it was obvious that he didn't understand it, he couldn't quarrel, and he felt unhappy thinking about it, and then he could only sulk.
she followed.
"Wife."
Bai Xin responded, as if he answered, but it was so weak that Cheng Jiqing didn't know if he heard it wrong.
So she yelled again.
It seems to be coaxing.
Cheng Jiqing said, "The cake is delicious."
Cheng Jiqing said, "Chicken soup and orange juice are delicious."
Cheng Jiqing said, "Dumplings are also delicious."
Bai Xin stopped and looked at Cheng Jiqing.
The breeze floated, and the particles of sand and dust flew up.
Cheng Jiqing remembered that that day in Jiangcheng, when she was in the hotel room, she could see the orange lights of the tallest building opposite.
When twelve o'clock struck, Bai Xin's birthday passed.
She walked to the table, and on the table was the cake packed from the restaurant—no one knew, she went back and brought back the cake that was almost disposed of by the waiter.
I don't care about the surprised eyes of the waiter, and I don't care about decency.
She took a bite of the cake, it was fine and slightly sweet, which was the sweetness she could accept.
That day, she saw Bai Xin outside the restaurant window.
That day, while eating the cake, I thought of Bai Xin in my heart.
Want it so so much.
Cheng Jiqing still remembered that the property manager brought her chicken soup and roses that day.
She forced herself to think that she only drank it so as not to waste it, but in fact, what she cherished was not willing to let go of even a little bit of bone dross.
She told the property not to accept it anymore, but she was looking forward to it day after day...
And next time.
During that time, she couldn't tell herself whether every time she was ruthless, she was punishing Bai Xin or herself.
Cheng Jiqing also remembered that night on New Year's Eve.
Song Ling brought her friends to accompany her, the room was bustling like a market, she seemed to blend in it, but her heart was more empty than anything else.
She stood alone on the peninsula, looking at the excitement on Song Ling's side, thinking in her heart that the sofa covers they were sitting on were bought by Bai Xin.
What she thought was that she should have spent this New Year's Eve with Bai Xin.
Then the phone rang.
She was startled, and nervous by accident, when she saw Tong Yanxi's news.
Lost again, but suddenly looking forward to it.
Because she knew that her relationship with Tong Yanxi would not allow Tong Yanxi to specially go downstairs to give her some gifts on this festival.
really.
As soon as she took the thermos from Tong Yanxi, she knew that it was from Bai Xin.
She looks away.
Under the broken street lamp, the black car was parked there.
Her eyes were blinded by the wind and snow.
But the heart knows that Bai Xin is there.
That night, after Song Ling and the others left.
She was sitting in the living room, scrolling through Weibo in boredom.
Then I accidentally saw an excerpt of the lyrics.
The worst crime in the world is called being too emotional, but I like this crime. — "No Man's Land".
Although the artistic conception of the song is different, this sentence made her feel completely shocked at the time.
In Bai Xin's place, she felt "too emotional" lightly.
She never let go.
How dare you talk about changing your mind...
The temperature dropped.
Cheng Jiqing pulled him into his arms again, pinched Bai Xin's chin, leaned over and kissed him, for a long moment, he didn't let go until Bai Xin had difficulty breathing.
Bai Xin said, "Have you tried it all?"
"certainly."
Bai Xin felt relieved, this matter had indeed stayed in her heart for a long time, not as a barrier, but a simple breath.
She naturally knew that Cheng Jiqing hadn't changed his mind.
Impossible to change your mind.
Just think of that scene, think of that day.
She wanted to make a fuss with Cheng Jiqing and let Cheng Jiqing coax him.
And Cheng Jiqing's patient words were more like small firework bombs, blooming in her heart one after another.
Bloom the brightest flowers in winter.
So brilliant that she no longer looks forward to spring.
"Speaking of which, let me ask a question." Cheng Jiqing said.
"…Um?"
"Did you add more salt to the dumplings that day?"
Bai Xinyan couldn't help laughing.
Cheng Jiqing knew it from that expression, she pursed her lips: "...do you know how much water I drank that day?"
So salty.
"I just want you to remember me, and you will remember me when you eat dumplings in the future, and you will never forget me." Bai Xin did not hide his intention at all.
A proud look.
Cheng Jiqing stretched out his hand to pinch Bai Xin's nose, why does this guy have so many little Jiujiu.
She said to herself, this worry is unnecessary.
Because as long as she exists in this world, she will never be forgotten.
No longer possible.
If there is such a day, it must be the day when her body and soul die.
the next day.
Another brilliant sunny day.
One step closer to spring.
Early this morning in Copenhagen, Bai Zhaoliang called.
He called Cheng Jiqing directly.
Therefore, Bai Xin was very proud of begging for the 'trophy': "Bai Zhaoliang knows that it is already difficult to play the emotional card with me. Besides, I have already played this set of emotional cards, so I don't know how to do this trick again."
Instead, it is more likely to contact Cheng Jiqing directly in the form of a transaction.
Cheng Jiqing raised his eyebrows after listening to the analysis, "Okay, I'm willing to bet and admit defeat."
She really doesn't know Bai Zhaoliang as well as Bai Xin does.
"twice."
"Um?"
After Cheng Jiqing finished answering, seeing Bai Xin's almost displeased face, he immediately thought: "Okay, okay, twice."
On my birthday, if I don’t make up for it, I won’t be able to pass it.
Cheng Jiqing only sent Bai Zhaoliang an address.
It was at the coffee shop where Fu Rongjun invited her last time, the place was booked by Bai Xin.
I found a box.
It was already night when Bai Zhaoliang came.
Wearing a brown coat, she was several years older than the last time I saw her. His eyes were slightly bent when looking at her, and the gully at the end of the eyes was particularly obvious.
Cheng Jiqing looked at him, but he didn't feel any sadness. When he thought about what Bai Zhaoliang had done, especially the behavior of abandoning Lu Man, he felt that this face deserved to be worse.
Bai Zhaoliang walked in, carrying two gift boxes in his hands, as if he had forgotten the embarrassment of the last meeting. He licked his face and smiled:
"I brought you a little gift, I haven't come here yet, remember to congratulate you, look, my daughter is married and I have to find out from the Internet..."
As she spoke, she looked at Bai Xin: "And Xinxin, you have kept your identity from Dad for so long."
"okay."
When Bai Zhaoliang was about to sing a bitter drama again, Cheng Jiqing interrupted.
"If Boss Bai came here to reminisce about the old days, we don't have time to listen. You said you have to see me for something important. If you can't tell the reason today, you don't have to see me again in the future."
Hearing this, Bai Zhaoliang put away the smile on his face, as if hesitating to think about something.
Then he looked at the indifferent Bai Xin, and said, "Xin Xin, why don't you go out first? I'll talk to Mr. Cheng alone?"
Bai Xin raised his eyes and glanced at him, before he could speak, Cheng Jiqing said, "It seems that there is no need to talk."
After finishing speaking, he put down the teacup without hesitation, ready to leave.
Bai Zhaoliang was in a hurry: "Wait!"
"Why do you have to be so angry? Xinxin is my daughter. It's not that I don't believe her, but I'm afraid that she will be hurt if I tell her about it." Bai Zhaoliang made some nonsense, then looked at Cheng Jiqing's expression, and said, "Mr. , What do you think about what I told you on the phone?"
"It was you who said that you had Fu Rongjun's handle in your hand, so I was willing to see you. What do you think I think about it?"
"I mean, if I give you the handle...does what you say really count?"
Cheng Jiqing has no patience: "You all know that Fu Rongjun and I are not biological mother and daughter, and you also bluntly know that Fu Rongjun and I have great conflicts. You must also know what Fu Rongjun and I expect from each other. As long as you hold something It's hard enough, I can satisfy you with the secondary investment you mentioned, including the request to postpone the arrears..."
Her tone was cold, arrogant and unquestionable.
Bai Zhaoliang now absolutely believes that Cheng Jiqing has such power, and all his current crises can be resolved with just one sentence.
But he still wanted a guarantee.
"Can we sign an agreement first?" Bai Zhaoliang said with a sneer, "Even if it's a letter of commitment."
He assured: "Don't worry, the things in my hands must be worth the money, and the results you want are not a problem. You also know that a businessman always needs a little protection. I can't have nothing In any case, hand over all your cards.”
Cheng Jiqing and Bai Xin looked at each other, and the latter nodded slightly.
It seemed to encourage Cheng Jiqing to sign the agreement.
Seeing this, Bai Zhaoliang smiled and felt a little calm.
Cheng Jiqing said: "Okay, let someone draw up a letter of commitment now, as soon as I get your so-called handle, I will immediately get someone to pay you."
She paused: "Actually, for Bai Xin's sake, I won't make it too difficult for you. XM Mr. Zhou, I will go to say hello and let her relax. As for money, wait until Bai's starts again."
Bai Zhaoliang's eyes brightened: "Yes, in fact, we should be of one heart. You and Bai Xin are married, and they will be a family in the future. The reason why I want to tell you this is because I regard you as a family. You are deceived again..."
After a few words, the man began to put on a villainous face again.
Cheng Jiqing had someone draft the agreement over the phone, added a private seal, signed it and sent it to Bai Zhaoliang.
Bai Zhaoliang carefully checked the signature and seal, and heaved a sigh of relief.
Cheng Jiqing and Bai Xin sat across from each other, their expressions were calm, but the mood of Bai Zhaoliang was opposite.
They all know.
The truth is coming.
"Mr. Cheng, you must still remember the fire fifteen years ago?" Bai Zhaoliang put down his phone, and took out a laptop from the briefcase beside him.
Cheng Jiqing said, "Naturally."
"That day, Lu Man and I, Bai Xin's mother, were also in that fire." Bai Zhaoliang said this, unconsciously looking at the opposite face that was similar to Lu Man, and his memory flashed back to the fire.
At that time, the Bai family's business was in trouble, and he and Lu Man had been separated for two years. It was Cheng who heard from somewhere that Lu Man had a good piece of land, and came to him, hoping to use him to persuade Lu Man to let go. .
This is an excellent opportunity.
That piece of land was actually the goal of his marriage with Lu Man from the beginning, but the woman was very cautious and didn't take it out until she died.
He begged for a long time, and Lu Man scolded and beat him, but he endured them all.
It's just for Lu Man to go to Cheng's house to have a talk with him.
Lu Man finally agreed.
That night, Cheng Lan came back late because of a temporary emergency, and it was Fu Rongjun who entertained them.
In his impression, Cheng Jing was similar to that time, cold and unreasonable.
Cheng Jiqing was different.
At that time, Cheng Jiqing was still very young, his fox eyes hadn't fully formed yet, he liked to laugh and was very lively.
Also very naughty.
Fu Rongjun took them to the study room where he met the guests, and later, without knowing what happened, Fu Rongjun got up and left.
He didn't wait in the study all the time, but followed him out.
The wooden house has a very special layout.
Originally, he wanted to take a look at the construction of the house, but accidentally saw Fu Rongjun and a servant standing outside a room whispering at the corner.
He hid quickly, but because he happened to hear a general sentence at the corner.
"Don't let anyone find out."
Fu Rongjun said.
"At that time, I thought I broke the adultery between Fu Rongjun and his servant, and that room was probably their secret club, so I paid attention to it." Bai Zhaoliang paused, and said: "Before we set off, I Brought a tiny camera, which came in handy..."
Sensing the disdain from the other side, he said: "It's really disgraceful. At first, I just wanted to say that if I can't get the investment this time, since Cheng Lan is so powerful, it would be nice if I could get some business news."
"So what did you record?"
Cheng Jiqing asked quietly.
Bai Zhaoliang turned back to the topic, she looked at Cheng Jiqing, and inserted the USB flash drive into the computer: "Xiao Cheng always checks it out, you'll know if you don't."
He turned the computer to silent, and the screen turned to Cheng Jiqing and Bai Xin.
that night.
He also didn't expect that Fu Rongjun's adultery was not recorded, but something more deadly to Fu Rongjun was recorded.
"Before the fire, I never would have guessed that what Mr. Fu Rong said about not being discovered... refers to this."
The fire came too fast.
He was originally in the study with Lu Man, but later Lu Man had nothing to do and went to the backyard on the first floor.
When the fire started, he noticed that it was too late to go out.
He was choked by the thick smoke and fell to the ground, but it was Lu Man who came to help him up.
…
No matter how many years have passed, every time he saw Bai Xin's face, he would think of Lu Man being crushed under the burning beam, looking at him with tears and resentment.
Bai Zhaoliang thought about it, and in the next second, he met Bai Xin's eyes, and his spine felt a chill.
He looks away.
Looking at the yellowed desktop, it seemed as if seeing the moment when the fire was spreading.
The smoke and fire in the screen severely burned Cheng Jiqing's eyes.
And a few minutes before the scene was fast-forwarded, she saw the 'Original Body' being pushed into the door by Fu Rongjun, so-called making the original body reflect.
Within two minutes, there was a light smoke rolling out, which was very inconspicuous.
But at this moment, Fu Rongjun reappeared in the screen.
She saw Fu Rongjun stretching out his hand, which was vaguely visible as a key.
Cheng Jiqing was sweating coldly.
Fu Rongjun locked the door.
When the fire had already begun, Fu Rongjun deliberately locked the door...
--------------------
The author has something to say:
Bai Xin: Give me some time, I will definitely remember other old accounts!
Orange Orange: ...?
