Chapter 1750 - 393: Offering Timely Help, Acting Smart
The man’s eyes narrowed slightly, and Yi Peilan instinctively shrank her neck. Then she snorted softly: "Am I afraid of you? I just want to kiss, so what?"
After saying that, she raised her eyebrows and turned away as if nothing had happened.
What just happened?
Everyone was dumbfounded. This Miss Yi... is just too...
The man raised his hand to touch his lips, his eyes lingering on Yi Peilan’s back with a hint of a smile in them.
Yi Peilan walked up to Tian Yan and the others with her head held high, looking triumphant: "How about that? I said I could do it, and I did."
It was supposed to be a confession, but Yi Peilan went straight for a kiss. This woman is incredibly bold, not even caring about her own reputation.
Tian Yan forced a smile: "Miss Yi, you have the courage to think and act. It’s admirable..."
Her gaze, however, was complex as she looked towards Liang Hong, only to see the man’s gaze penetrating the splendid lights, crossing over the bustling crowd, and his direction was towards...
The girl stood proudly before him, dazzling and radiant.
Her heart suddenly ached.
She proposed the game, but now she had shot herself in the foot. Is this what they call karma?
The note was clutched in her palm, nearly crumpling it to pieces.
"Sister Peilan, you’re really bold, going in for a kiss like that. That guy looks quite handsome and matches well with you. Why not consider it...?" Mo Pianpian said with a mischievous grin.
Tian Yan’s face turned even paler.
Miss Zhao smiled sweetly: "Miss Mo, do you know who that gentleman is?"
Mo Pianpian asked instinctively: "Who?"
Yi Peilan secretly pricked up her ears.
Miss Zhao glanced at Tian Yan, feigning a sigh: "His name is Liang Hong, CEO of Liang Group, young, talented, handsome, and wealthy. More importantly, he’s Miss Tian’s fiancé...."
"What?" Mo Pianpian’s exaggerated scream drew a lot of attention, prompting her to quickly cover her mouth, glancing between Tian Yan and Yi Peilan. This...
Yi Peilan raised her eyebrows slightly, her face calm.
Tian Yan coldly glanced at Miss Zhao: "Miss Zhao, don’t spread rumors. Mr. Liang and I have no relationship whatsoever."
"Yes, yes... Blame my big mouth, after all, you’re not engaged yet. I shouldn’t say such things; it will ruin Miss Tian’s reputation...."
The more she said, the more ambiguous it seemed.
Tian Yan faced countless scrutinizing gazes and finally couldn’t help but turn and walk towards the garden.
Mo Pianpian stuck out her tongue, "There’s going to be quite a show next...."
Looking again at Liang Hong, she saw he was always watching Yi Peilan and couldn’t help but laugh: "He’s been looking at you, you know. I think he’s definitely fallen for you. Anyway, he’s not engaged to Tian Yan, so you can compete fairly."
Yi Peilan, arms folded, walked out with an air of arrogance, "Do you think I would look up to a man like that?"
Mo Pianpian scratched her head. Young Master Liang seems to be talented and promising, already outstanding among the young elites in Capital City, yet Yi Peilan still doesn’t regard him. She’s really picky; what kind of man would catch her eye?
Remember the first time they saw Yan Song, Yi Peilan showed a strong interest in him. She liked Yan Song then, but knowing he had a fiancée, she gave up. It proves she likes those young heroes like Yan Song.
"That little bitch, let me stand up for you." Yi Peilan muttered as she passed Yun Ya, her face unchanged as she walked by.
Yun Ya smiled with pursed lips and stepped forward to follow.
Meanwhile, the banquet hall would not settle down.
Liang Hong touched his lips, unable to help but lower his eyes and smile softly.
"Mr. Liang."
Liang Hong looked up, seeing Chen Huan standing in front of him, "Your mourning period has ended. Shouldn’t you proceed with your engagement to Yan’er?"
Liang Hong curled his lips, eyes revealing neither joy nor anger: "I’m sorry, the company has been busy recently, and I really don’t have much time. I could only attend the banquet because I postponed a very important meeting, so I hope Lady Tian understands."
Saying so much just for an excuse, was he backing out?
The Tian Family and Liang Family have always had a good relationship, and Liang Family’s success today can’t be separated from the Tian Family’s support. When the Tian Family was in trouble, Liang Hong offered timely help. Liang Hong and Tian Yan are childhood friends, and their families discussed marriage when they were young. Liang Family initiated it, but considering Liang Family’s then-inferior position and complex family relationships, Chen Huan had no such intention. But now, under Liang Hong’s management, Liang Group is incomparable to its past, and the Tian Family now needs Liang Family’s help; they must instead seek out an alliance with Liang Family. In fact, the old Mr. Liang had said that as long as the Tian Family was willing, Liang Hong would marry Tian Yan, cementing their ties. Now, the Tian Family is willing, yet Liang Hong’s attitude remains ambiguous, causing Chen Huan immense anxiety.
