Chapter 1039 - 1043: Because of Love, Hence the Torment
"Miss Luo, according to reliable sources, you came back this time with a boy. Is that boy your child?"
"To be precise, he’s Leng Zimo and my child."
"Does Mr. Leng know about this?"
"He just found out."
"Separated for five years, do you think Mr. Leng will still forgive you?" another reporter asked.
"I believe he will," Luo Xiaoqian slightly raised her face and looked into one of the cameras, "because I know he still loves me, just as he did five years ago."
Then she propped herself up and stood from the chair.
"Today’s press conference is over, thank you all."
She nodded gently to the crowd and walked off the podium.
"Miss Luo..."
The reporters hurriedly chased after her, but security and staff immediately separated them, allowing Luo Xiaoqian to walk out of the press conference venue amid the clamor.
...
...
Emperor View CEO’s office.
"Brat!"
Sitting behind his desk, Leng Zimo muttered angrily after watching the online video of Luo Xiaoqian’s press conference.
He knew she did it on purpose, intending to take all the blame for the past five years upon herself.
Even now, she’s still finding ways to protect him, and she clearly left several loopholes when answering questions. If it were anyone else, he could easily exploit the situation to utterly destroy them.
On the screen, a new email popped up, and Leng Zimo clicked into his inbox.
"Saw the video, right? Don’t hold back this afternoon. I think you can propose divorce, or you can sue me; maybe we can fight over Mo Mo’s custody. Anyway, put on a good show."
Signed—L’s L.
Five years ago, he’d often used this abbreviation to message her, meaning ’Leng Zimo for Luo Xiaoqian,’ and vice versa, ’Luo Xiaoqian for Leng Zimo.’
Looking at the simple words above, he felt nothing but resignation.
As expected, she did it deliberately.
"Idiot, stupid woman, damn Luo Xiaoqian!"
Knocking sound echoed.
Leng Zimo raised his hand and deleted the email, "Come in."
Mina tiptoed in from outside, "President Leng, the press conference is ready. There’s still five minutes left, are you prepared?!"
Everyone knew he was in a bad mood, so Mina, as the proxy assistant, was naturally very cautious, afraid to provoke him and suffer the consequences.
"Notify them to get ready to start!"
Leng Zimo stood up and walked out of the office with a serious expression.
Mina didn’t dare slack off; she took out her phone and started calling colleagues downstairs while jogging alongside him to the elevator and pressed the button for him.
The elevator descended swiftly, soon arriving at the fifth floor.
Entering the press conference venue, Leng Zimo’s face was dark.
This venue was even more crowded than Luo Xiaoqian’s, as everyone wanted to see how Leng Zimo would react to the topics of marriage and a child brought up by Luo Xiaoqian.
Five years ago, a love that was passionately intense, a world-class proposal still widely discussed; what kind of ending would it have now?!
Seated at the primary spot, Leng Zimo coldly glanced at the excited reporters below.
"Whatever you want to know, you can ask now!"
A reporter immediately stood up, eagerly asking, "Mr. Leng, regarding what Miss Luo said about your son, did you know?"

Good night
