1111 As Long As You're Still My Woman
Li Yinian avoided eye contact with him and said, “Didn’t you send me a message saying ‘What’s the point of living and dying’? I was worried that you’ll commit suicide.”
Qiao Yanze sneered, grabbed her waist and pulled her forcefully.
Li Yinian was forced to lie on him, and she tried to get up several times, but he stopped her.
“Seeking revenge? How could I do such a stupid thing?” He snorted. “Don’t worry. If I really have such a thought one day, I’ll drag you down even if I die.”
Li Yinian said coldly, “That’s why I don’t want to argue with you anymore.”
Qiao Yanze was still smiling.
He had completely trained himself to be indifferent no matter how mean that woman was.
“No matter what, you’re still worried about me, aren’t you?”
Li Yinian paused for a bit and said, “I’m just worried that I’ll be implicated by you.”
Qiao Yanze put his hand in her hair and said, “No. You won’t be implicated by me.”
Li Yinian was dazed. She suddenly realized something and her eyes widened. “Have you… made a decision?”
“That’s right,” he said. “I won’t interfere with Fengqiao Corporation anymore. Let them compete.”
“Qiao Yanze!” Li Yinian looked at him in disbelief. “Are you crazy? You’re not worse than them, and in fact…”
pAn,Da n<0,>v,e1 She suddenly bit her lips.
“Seems like you’re pretty confident in me.” Qiao Yanze raised an eyebrow.
Li Yinian calmed herself down and said, “Your brother only took advantage of his stats as the eldest son, but he’s actually mediocre. At most, he can only be successful. Your second brother is impatient and short-sighted, and your third sister is ruthless and has no bottom line. They’re all inferior to you. This was what Old Xiao told me when we were chatting after I got engaged to him.”
Qiao Yanze was still smiling when he heard the first part, but his face turned sullen towards the end.
Li Yinian suddenly smiled and said, “I told you a long time ago that I don’t mind marrying Old Xiao, but you never believed me. He’s been good to me and taught me a lot. Unfortunately…”
Qiao Yanze grabbed her wrist tightly and snapped through gritted teeth, “Shut up!”
Li Yinian paused for a bit. “Qiao Yanze, I won’t be grateful to you or accept you because of this.”
Qiao Yanze’s chest heaved. After a while, he said, “I know, and I don’t expect you to be grateful. However, if I want to compete for the position of heir, I’ll lose you completely. The moment I choose to distance myself from you, I’m afraid you’ll turn around and find a man to marry.”
Li Yinian was dazed. After a while, she said, “Qiao Yanze, you know you can’t force me forever.”
Qiao Yanze stroked her face and looked at her quietly. His eyes were exquisite, but the fierceness in his eyes was neutralized. He didn’t look feminine at all. Instead, he looked solemn after a while.
“It’s alright as long as you’re still my woman.” He smiled and pressed his fingers against her lips. He said in a hoarse voice, “Stay tonight.”
Both of them had been very busy the past month or so, and they had rarely spent the night.
Li Yinian pursed her lips and pushed his hand away. “This is Mr. Ji’s home. Forget it.”
