Chapter 765: Chapter 006: it was actually her that night

Li Junsheng had not planned to come to this banquet. However, the Ning family was developing very well in Qingcheng. Moreover, they were on good terms with the Zhan family, the Lu family, and the Dong family. President Ning’s father, the old man, had also dealt with the Li family before. Therefore, after receiving the invitation from President Ning, Li Junsheng decided to show up. He had just finished delivering the gifts and was about to leave. He didn’t expect to see ye Zhen. The little girl was wearing a long white dress today. She was different from the previous few times he saw her. After dressing up like this, the little girl looked more elegant. At this moment, she was standing in the corridor. The bright light above her head allowed him to clearly see her expression. It was completely different from the banquet hall just now. There was a hint of mockery, a hint of playfulness, and a hint of schadenfreude on her lips. Her brows could not help but furrow. She was so ignorant of how to protect herself. Suddenly, she felt a little stifled. The hand that was holding ye Ninghan suddenly shook off. Ye Ninghan took two or three steps back because of his action before she could stabilize her body. “Uncle Li.” Ye Ninghan did not expect to meet Li Junsheng, nor did she expect him to see her like this. She was still trying to figure out a way to hook up with Li Junsheng, but who knew — “Miss Ye, if possible, invite me, Mayor Li.” Li Junsheng had always disliked using official positions to pressure others, but he did not mind using it today. “I wonder what ye Zhen did to make a sister like you want to hit her?” “I, I didn’t.”Ye Ninghan was at a loss for words. She looked at ye Zhen, who was standing silently behind Li Junsheng, and suddenly realized her vicious intentions. She must have noticed Li Junsheng’s arrival early on, so she stood there. He was really too vicious. “Yes or no, I can see with my eyes.”Li Junsheng was rather impolite. “Miss Ye, I hope this is the last time. If I see you making things difficult for ye Zhen again, Don’t blame me for being impolite.” His gaze was very cold and very sharp. Ye Ninghan was so frightened by him that her body trembled. She wanted to defend herself but was unable to say anything. Li Junsheng did not look at her. He turned to face ye Zhen. “Are you okay?” Ye Zhen shook her head. She was fine. In fact, if Li Junsheng had not made a move just now, she would have been fine. After all, she was someone who had learned how to grasp. How could she really let ye Ninghan hit her? However, this feeling was a little strange. Ever since her mother passed away, other than her uncle and grandfather, this was the first time someone had stood in front of her and protected her. Ye Zhen couldn’t tell how she felt. Looking at the side of Li Junsheng’s face, her heart stirred. Li Junsheng saw her dazed look and thought that she was scared. He pulled her body to his side. “Do you still want to go back?” Go Back? Go back where? Ye Zhen came back to her senses and shook her head. Li Junsheng nodded. “Let’s go. Since we’ve already said Hello, we won’t be able to defend ourselves if we just leave like this.” Uh. It can still be like this? Ye Zhen blinked her eyes. She had never been so capricious before, but to Li Junsheng, this was nothing more than a simple matter. He held ye Zhen’s hand and walked out. There was no need to give the others any face. He was willing to come today because he was giving them face. It was not until they got into the car that ye Zhen finally reacted. “Uncle Li, that… that’s not very good, is it?” “There’s nothing bad about it.”Li Junsheng did not think that there was anything bad about it. “Or do you want to go back?” Ye Zhen shook her head. In fact, she did not really like such an occasion. However, was it not very good to leave just like that? “I haven’t told President Ning yet.” “It doesn’t matter.”Li Junsheng held her hand and led her out. “He won’t mind.” There were so many people here today. One less and one more. There was no difference at all. Just like that, Ye Zhen got into Li Junsheng’s car. After getting into the car, ye Zhen pulled her long skirt and sat carefully at the side. Secretary Chen was still driving. This time, he didn’t even look behind him. “Does your stepsister always bully you?” “Ah?” Ye Zhen was stunned for a moment before she realized that he was referring to Ye Ninghan. She shook her head and said, “It’s fine.” What Bully? Ye Ninghan was no match for her. Li Junsheng misunderstood her meaning. “Just like before, you should have dodged. Why are you standing there and letting her hit you?” How did she let her hit you? Ye Zhen wanted to explain, but when she met the unmistakable concern in Li Junsheng’s eyes, she fell silent. Ever since her mother passed away, apart from her grandfather, uncle, and Ling Xuan, it had been a long time since she had received other people’s concern. “You haven’t eaten, have you? What do you want to eat?” “Whatever.”After ye Zhen said this, she suddenly smiled. “I don’t think this outfit is suitable for eating out, right?” Li junsheng sized her up and turned to look at Secretary Chen in front of him. Then, he told her the name of a place. Ye Zhen knew the place he was talking about. It was a very famous revolving western restaurant in Qingcheng. The chef was French. The French food was quite authentic, but there were also dress requirements for every customer who went to eat there. “There’s no need to be so grand, right?” “It’s okay. I’ll only live up to your outfit if I go there.” After entering the restaurant, the two of them were led to a seat by the window. It was already the beginning of the evening. From this angle, they could see the night view of Qingcheng. This was a landmark building of Qingcheng. When it was built, ye Zhen and her mother had come here once. But not long after they came here for dinner, her mother passed away. After that, she never came again. “What do you like to eat?”Li Junsheng looked at the French menu in front of him and raised his head to ask ye Zhen’s opinion. “You order. I’m fine with anything.” Recalling her mother, Lu he, always made ye Zhen feel a little sad. In fact, every time she saw Chen Wan, who looked petty and fussy, she didn’t understand whether ye Nanshan was blind or not. If he wasn’t blind, why would he not love his mother but fall in love with such a good-for-nothing woman? Li Junsheng ordered a good meal and looked at ye Zhen after the waiter left. “What’s wrong? Are you still thinking about your stepsister?” “No.”Ye Zhen shook her head and said in a soft voice, “I’m here now. I’ve only been here once.” “My mother brought me here eleven years ago. At that time, this place had just opened for business. In the end, my mother passed away not long after…” “I’m sorry. I didn’t expect it.” “It’s okay.”Anyway, it had been a long time. She had also learned to put it down. “Do you want to drink? The red wine here is good. Do you want to try it?” Ever since the incident last time, ye Zhen wouldn’t think of drinking alone outside. But if that person was Li Junsheng, it shouldn’t be a problem, right? “Okay, I’ll just drink two glasses, but I can’t hold my liquor very well.” “Don’t worry. If you get drunk, I’ll definitely send you home safely.” “Then I’ll thank you in advance.” Ye Zhen smiled. It had been a long time since she had been able to get along with someone so easily. This was a feeling. Being with Li Junsheng felt very relaxed. Li Junsheng smiled. At this moment, the night sky outside grew darker. The lights were shining, and the revolving restaurant rotated once every hour and a half. They had just enough time to enjoy the night view of the entire Qingcheng City. In fact, it had been a long time since ye Zhen had been so relaxed. Especially since the incident with that Cowherd. “Look, that’s the general drawing company over there.” She pointed at a certain point, and Li Junsheng followed her gaze. When his eyes met hers, which were as bright as stars, his gaze darkened slightly. “Do you really care about your father’s company?” “No, I really care about my mother’s company.” Ye Zhen retracted her gaze and looked at him seriously. “Jiang Yi will definitely one day include my mother’s name. Back then, my father came from nothing and founded it together with my mother. It wasn’t his.” “Is that so?” “Of course.”Ye Zhen nodded. “Back then, my mother took out all her savings, including my grandfather’s savings, to start a business for my father. Later on, she succeeded. This was all thanks to my mother and my grandfather.” However, she did not expect that ye Nanshan could share the hardships with his wife, but he could not share the joys. With money and status, after the company started, his heart changed. She remembered that in the next few years, although her mother appeared to be fine on the surface, she was often unhappy. “Forget it, let’s not talk about this.” Li Junsheng looked at the loneliness that flashed across her face and suddenly had a suggestion. “Have you ever thought of turning the company into yours?” Ye Zhen was stunned. She had never thought of this. All she could think of was to protect her mother’s share — “This doesn’t seem very realistic.” “As long as you want it, it’s fine.”Li Junsheng looked at her. The little girl was too kind-hearted after all. She had never thought of taking over the company. Ye Zhen had never thought of this. She picked up the wine in front of her and took a sip. Well, in fact, she really did have this idea. She wasn’t willing to give up. Why should she let another person take advantage of the company that her mother built and supported with one hand? Why? She had thought about it, but she hadn’t thought about what she should do to achieve her goal more easily. At this time, the waiter began to serve the dishes. Li Junsheng smiled. “Let’s eat first.” “Okay.” The food was delicious, and the environment was good. The atmosphere of the meal was good. After the main meal was served, it was time for dessert. Ye Zhen couldn’t help but look at Li Junsheng. “Uncle Li, if I really want to take my father’s company –” “Do you really have this idea?” “Yes.”Ye Zhen nodded, and there was a flash of coldness in her expression. “I want to make the company mine.” If ye Jianhao’s birth had happened long after his mother’s death, ye Zhen would not have hated him so much. However, ye Nanshan and Chen Wan had given birth to Ye Jianhao less than six months after their marriage. His mother’s body was not even cold yet. He was like this — “Do you think that I am too ruthless?” “No.”Li Junsheng shook his head. “If you are not ruthless, your stepsister and stepmother will not let you off either.” “That’s right.”Ye Zhen chuckled. There was obvious mockery in her eyes. “Even if I don’t do anything, they’ll still want to deal with me.” “Do you need my help?” Li Junsheng’s words stunned ye Zhen for a moment. She didn’t answer immediately. Instead, she shook her head with some hesitation. “Why are you helping me? Is it just because of my grandfather?” “Not exactly.”The feeling was a little strange. To Li Junsheng, he felt that he had met a young lady who made him feel good. “That’s…” Li Junsheng was about to speak when his phone rang. She glanced at ye Zhen and said, “Sorry, I have to take this call first.” The call was from Huo Jinyao. It was not convenient for Li Junsheng to investigate the previous incident openly, so he asked Huo Jinyao for help. “TSK. I didn’t expect you to have such luck with women in Qingcheng.” When he found out about this, Huo Jinyao’s teasing made Li Junsheng speechless. “If you want such luck with women, I can give it to you.” “There’s no need.”Huo Jinyao felt a chill run down his spine. “I don’t want to sleep on the sofa at night.” “You’re so strict with your family? Looks like your brother-in-law has a way with men.” “I’ve always been strict with my family.”Huo Jinyao did not mind his image of being strict with his wife, which left Li Junsheng speechless. However, even if Huo Jinyao was strict with his wife, he was very reliable when it came to serious matters. “I’ve checked the things you wanted me to check. I’ve already sent them to your email.” “Okay, thank you.” “What for?”Huo Jinyao smiled. “Next time when you’re back in Rongcheng, just have a few more drinks with me.” After hanging up, Li Junsheng’s phone rang with an email notification. He opened it casually, and the contents made his expression change slightly. He raised his head and looked at ye Zhen. Dessert had been served after the meal, and Ye Zhen was eating the cake with a fork. The chocolate chips on it were on the corner of her lips. Realizing that he was looking at her, she smiled at him. She pushed another dessert in front of him. Li Junsheng did not take the dessert. He lowered his head and read through all the information in his hand. There were not many pages. Most of the pages were still pictures. He could just flip through them and it would be over. The email was dragged to the bottom. Li Junsheng did not look up. His expression was too serious. Ye Zhen thought that he had something important to deal with. She focused on eating the dessert and did not want to disturb him at all. Li Junsheng looked through the investigation again. Then he put down his phone. “Uncle Li, do you have something to do?” Ye Zhen had almost finished the dessert. She knew that the other party was the mayor and was very busy. “If you have something to do, you can go do your thing first.” She was not in a hurry. Li Junsheng didn’t say anything. He just stared at ye Zhen’s face. Ye Zhen felt uncomfortable under his gaze. “What’s wrong? Is there something on my face?” She knew that she would blush when she drank, but she had only drunk two cups. “Yes.”Li Junsheng nodded. He suddenly reached out his hand and placed it on ye Zhen’s lips across the dining table. “Here, you have chocolate.” Ye Zhen was embarrassed and only thought of wiping it off. Li Junsheng was one step faster than her and gently wiped the corner of her lips. Her warm fingertips brushed the corner of her lips and she was stunned. For a moment, she was stunned and looked at him in a daze. “Uncle Li?” “It’s nothing.”Li Junsheng withdrew his hand and looked at the dessert in front of him. “Are you full? Why don’t I give you this one too?” “I’m full.” His voice was too gentle and it wasn’t just his voice. Ye Zhen had a strange feeling when he looked at her and touched her with his fingers. She couldn’t help but tell herself that she was thinking too much. In fact, nothing happened. Nothing could happen. “Okay.”Li Junsheng nodded and looked out of the window. The revolving restaurant had already turned to the other side. There was the largest amusement park in Qingcheng. The Ferris wheel inside was now lit up, and it looked very gorgeous. Ye Zhen looked in that direction. She had drunk two glasses of wine. She was not drunk, but her eyes were a little misty. “It’s so beautiful.” “Do you want to go?”Li Junsheng looked at the time. “Let’s go now.” “There’s no time, right?” “Let’s go.” Li Junsheng was the first to stand up when he spoke. She stood up, and Ye Zhen also stood up. “Uncle Li?” “Didn’t you want to go?” When did she say she wanted to go? She only said that the lights there were very beautiful. However, ye Zhen looked in the direction of the Ferris wheel. This amusement park was newly built this year. She really hadn’t been there before. When the park first opened, she felt that there were too many people. She hated places with too many people. There was no time to come again. “Okay.” Ye Zhen nodded. Her attitude was generous and calm. Li Junsheng smiled. The little girl was not shy, not pretentious, very good. After getting out of the revolving restaurant, secretary Chen’s car was already waiting at the door. It took about half an hour to get to the amusement park from here. Li Junsheng glanced at ye Zhen. “If you feel tired, you can rest for a while.” Ye Zhen shook her head, but the alcohol was starting to take effect. She was really a little dizzy. She leaned against the back of the chair and closed her eyes. Li Junsheng looked at the side of her face, took out his phone, and read the email again. The photo wasn’t particularly clear, but it was enough. In addition to the investigation that night, there was also a copy of ye Zhen’s information. It wasn’t much. A simple two-page account of her life. Li Junsheng wasn’t interested in those life stories. The information he should know was similar to what ye Zhen had said before. The only thing that Li Junsheng didn’t expect was that ye Zhen was actually the woman from that night. After spending one night with him, she had disappeared without a trace. Her gaze fell on Ye Zhen again. She wasn’t really asleep, she was just resting with her eyes closed. As if she sensed that someone was watching her, she opened her eyes and met Li Junsheng’s gaze. In the dim car, the street lights on both sides of the car shone brightly. It made Li Junsheng’s eyes look even darker and more unpredictable. Why was he looking at her like that? “Uncle Li?” The car made a turn in front and ye Zhen, who was caught off guard, fell into his arms. Li Junsheng hugged her waist at the right time and gently pulled her body into his arms. “Sit properly.” “OH.”The alcohol made ye Zhen’s reaction a little slow. She didn’t feel the hand on her waist. She just opened her eyes and looked at Li Junsheng. “Uncle Li, why are you looking at me like that?” The breath she exhaled carried a hint of alcohol. Li Junsheng narrowed his eyes. Looking at the red lips that were just inches away, he averted his gaze. “You should sleep a little longer. You’ll be there in a while.” “Okay.” It wasn’t that ye Zhen wanted to sleep, but the atmosphere in front of her was a little strange. She couldn’t put her finger on how it was strange. Closing her eyes, she finally realized where it was strange. Just now, she had fallen into Li Junsheng’s arms because she couldn’t sit properly after the car turned. And now, he was still hugging her. His hand was on her waist. Her back was pressed against his chest —
