Ling Qianchen didn't cause any trouble. Instead, he cooperated quite well and followed behind. This left Beimo with nowhere to vent her anger.
After getting in the car, Ling Qianchen closed his eyes tightly. It seemed that he was closing his eyes to rest. As for Beimo, who had a lot to say but had to hold it back again.
As soon as the car reached the villa gate, the man, who had been silent and closing his eyes to rest all the way, suddenly opened his eyes.
Moreover, without even saying a word, he directly opened the door and got out of the car, completely ignoring Beimo throughout the process.
Not willing to be left behind, Beimo angrily followed closely behind. Coincidentally, she bumped into Yu Luqing, who was coming out to get a drink.
"Ouch..."
Without any warning, the two bumped into each other. Fortunately, Yu Luqing reacted quickly and instinctively grabbed the handrail of the stairs beside her, so she didn't fall in a mess. But inside, she was extremely dissatisfied.
"Girl, why are you in such a hurry? Are you rushing to grab money?"
Beimo, who had also gasped in pain from the impact, instinctively wanted to retort. But when she met Yu Luqing's angry and dissatisfied face, her heart skipped a beat.
"Mom, I'm sorry. I was just in a hurry to chase Qianchen and didn't notice you coming out..."
"Qianchen? My son is back!?" Yu Luqing's eyes were filled with surprise.
"Yes."
Beimo nodded, looking as if she had something to say but hesitated. This made Yu Luqing even more impatient.
"If you have something to say, just say it. Stop being so hesitant!"
Thinking that she still needed Yu Luqing's support for the time being, no matter how angry Beimo was, she could only hold it back.
"Mom, I didn't mean to be like this. It's just that Qianchen... his actions are a bit too much."
Then, Beimo began to complain subtly.
On the surface, she portrayed herself as a victim and poured out why she had to endure such unfair treatment.
Secretly, she skillfully warned Yu Luqing that Yuan Meng would not take Ling Qianchen back. At present, the Ling family still had to rely on the Beijia's alliance to stabilize its foundation.
It was this combination of overt complaints and covert warnings that shocked and enlightened Yu Luqing.
Yes, she almost made a wrong decision!
If it weren't for what Beimo said, after learning Yuan Meng's real identity, she did have the idea of kicking Beimo away and asking Ling Qianchen to win Yuan Meng back...
Fortunately, she hadn't done such a thing yet. Otherwise, she would have ruined the last bit of the Ling family!
Thinking of this, Yu Luqing, who had just been impatient, immediately put on a fake smile on her face and grabbed Beimo's hands.
"Momo, mom was a bit confused just now after sleeping. It's inevitable that I had a bad temper when I woke up. Don't take it to heart, okay?"
Beimo sneered in her heart, but still looked obedient on the surface and shook her head. "How could I be angry with mom?"
"That's good! Don't worry. As long as mom is here, no one can easily shake your position as Mrs. Ling, not even Qianchen."
"But, the person Qianchen has always had in his heart is not me."
"So what? Yuan Meng has been abandoned by our Ling family. The one who lives with Qianchen is you. If Qianchen doesn't treat you well, who should he treat well?"
"But, our Beijia is never as good as the Yuanjia..." Beimo's voice dropped a bit lower, but she secretly observed Yu Luqing's expression from the corner of her eye.
Yu Luqing thought she had hidden her emotions well.
She was annoyed and regretful, but things had come to this point. What kind of choice to make was no longer up to her!
"So what if the Beijia is not as good as the Yuanjia? As long as mom likes the daughter - in - law of our Ling family! Besides, Yuan Meng is not as generous as you, Momo..."
Just as she finished speaking, there came a cold snort from the direction of the kitchen, which also startled the two women who were talking.
Ling Qianchen stood at the door with his arms crossed, his eyes cold and disdainful, as if Yu Luqing and Beimo were bacteria and garbage.
Although he was in a sober state, it was precisely this sober state that deepened most of his regret.
It turned out that Yuan Meng had been hurt in such a dirty environment when she offered her sincere heart to him with both hands!
If time could turn back, he...
No, time was doomed not to turn back, but he also didn't want to let go again!
No matter whether Yuan Meng was angry with him or hated him, he had to chase her back.
Not knowing how much of the conversation just now Ling Qianchen had heard, Beimo was extremely nervous.
"Qianchen, you..."
"Do you want to find my mother as a backer? Beimo, aren't you tired of this trick yet?"
Having her thoughts laid bare in front of everyone, it was like an invisible slap that was firmly slapped on Beimo's face.
It was so... embarrassing!
"Qianchen, what are you talking about? Mom won't allow you to talk to Momo like that."
Ling Qianchen glanced at Yu Luqing faintly. After all, she was his mother, so some words couldn't be said too harshly. But -
"I've already given up the love of my life as you wished, but I won't let you control my life anymore."
"You!"
"Moreover, if you like Beimo so much, why don't you live with her? Anyway, I'll never have any special feelings for her."
After saying that, he turned around and left directly, completely ignoring Yu Luqing, who was so angry that she stomped her feet and cursed, and Beimo, who had a gloomy face and a mind full of twists and turns.
Having lost face, Beimo's hatred in her heart deepened continuously, and a thought gradually germinated in her mind.
Ling Qianchen, since you're heartless, don't blame me for being unjust!
After this incident, Ling Qianchen returned to the villa less and less often. Later, he simply used the excuse that the project was too busy and directly moved into the office.
Actually, he didn't make up this excuse just to avoid Yu Luqing.
The project that the Ling Group and Aiyue were working on together had indeed entered a critical stage in the past two days. If they wanted to win in one go, they had to spend more energy than usual and couldn't afford any mistakes.
The project was just a few steps away from completion. Coupled with Jake's participation, the progress was even faster than expected, and the initial version was born today.
Ling Qianchen was very happy. He even couldn't wait to take the initial version to find Yuan Meng immediately. But he also didn't forget that there was one most important thing that needed to be dealt with in time.
Collecting his emotions, Ling Qianchen first called his assistant and asked him to give Jake a few days off on the grounds that Jake had been staying up late and working hard for the past few days.
At first, the assistant didn't understand the reason. It wasn't until something flashed through his mind that he suddenly realized.
"Okay, Mr. Ling. I'll go and inform him right away."
After dealing with this matter, Ling Qianchen couldn't wait to send a message to Yuan Meng, inviting her to come to the company for a visit and check the progress of the project.
As soon as the message was sent, Yuan Meng replied within five minutes.
Although it was just a short "Okay", in Ling Qianchen's view, it was another kind of implicit agreement.
An hour later.
The employees of the Ling Group gathered together and talked in whispers.
It turned out that within this hour, Ling Qianchen had specially gone home to change his clothes and had his hair carefully groomed. He looked even more handsome and energetic.
When everyone thought that Ling Qianchen's change was because he had finally won Yuan Meng back or was to welcome Beimo, his fiancée, until -
