Chapter 822: Chapter 822: How about, let’s have a go
After looking, they immediately turned their heads back and compared the photo, yes, it was this man.
Moreover, Yu Weiwei just called him “Li Beiting”!
The name of the CEO of the Li Family was indeed Li Beiting.
Everyone was shocked, their eyes wide as copper bells, their mouths agape in surprise, speechless.
The corridor suddenly fell into silence!
But, just a few minutes later, everyone erupted: “Oh my God!”
Disbelief was etched on everyone’s face, without a single exception.
They had read the entire headline report, just released by C City’s most authoritative media, highly credible.
They saw that it said Li Beiting called off the wedding, stating that he had liked someone for a long time and that person was named Yu Weiwei!
What’s more, this headline news ended with a high-definition video from the scene.
“It’s so romantic, so romantic!” a single young woman’s eyes sparkled with stars of infatuation.
After watching the video, especially after hearing Li Beiting’s words, “I could give up a lifetime of glory, just to keep her safe,” her heart couldn’t take it.
“So handsome, so handsome, oh, my God!”
Yu Weiwei, hearing the noisy clamor outside, walked out with a frown.
“What are you doing? Shouldn’t you be working?” Yu Weiwei said angrily.
She was normally good-tempered and never scolded her subordinates, but that didn’t mean she could ignore everything.
These colleagues, openly gathered outside her office to listen to gossip, and now making so much noise, did they not take her seriously at all?!
“Director Yu, there’s a headline news about you, you should take a look!” Someone said, flatteringly stretching the phone towards Yu Weiwei.
Yu Weiwei frowned and took it.
But just as she glanced at the headline’s main push, the phone was snatched away by Li Beiting.
However, she saw it, the main image on the cover was Li Beiting and Mi Fei.
One dressed in a white groom’s suit, the other in a pure white wedding dress, a handsome couple.
Indeed, they really had a wedding.
Just as her fingers couldn’t help scrolling down, Li Beiting grabbed it away.
He then spoke coldly to the group of women, “I’ll count to three, and you’d all better disappear, or none of you will have a job to come back to!”
The people now believed that he was indeed their boss’s husband, they believed it!
So, they no longer dared to talk back to Li Beiting and one by one drearily walked towards the stairwell.
Once everyone had left, only Yu Weiwei and Li Beiting were left in the corridor.
Li Beiting still had the phone in his hand, Yu Weiwei gave him a cold glance and turned to walk into her office.
Just as she attempted to shut Li Beiting out of the door, he stepped ahead and held the door open with his hand.
“Weiwei, why won’t you listen to my explanation?” Li Beiting said with a smile.
“Then explain,” Yu Weiwei said with a cold laugh.
She really wanted to see what explanation Li Beiting could come up with. Had he argued with Mi Fei at the wedding and so came running to her?
Engagement, wedding, it was always the same tactic.
“Do you want to hear me explain in person, or watch the news?” Li Beiting was very calm.
“You, shut up!” Yu Weiwei snatched the phone from his hand.
Scrolling through the page, she locked her gaze back onto the full-city headliner of C City.
The Li Family and the Mi Family are both prestigious clans, and a marriage between the two would undoubtedly make headlines.
Yu Weiwei wasn’t surprised at all, but as her fingers had just started to scroll down, she saw a line of eye-catching large characters: Groom denounces marriage in public.
In public… denounces marriage?
Those words stabbed into Yu Weiwei’s nerves in an instant, she widened her eyes, yes, she hadn’t read it wrong—it was a public denouncement of marriage!
Her fingers trembled, unable to control the emotions inside as she scrolled down.
But what she didn’t expect was that the more she read, the more shocked she became!
Yes, it was him who publicly denounced the marriage, threw the groom’s boutonniere on the ground, and apologized to everyone present.
Yu Weiwei’s hand shook violently, her fingers scrolled to the end where there was a high-definition live stream video.
She couldn’t help but tap the video, her desire to see more overwhelming.
At that moment, Yu Weiwei’s mind was a complete blank.
Her heart seemed to jump into her throat, and her feelings were very complex.
When the video started, there was no sound in the hallway, it fell into a somber silence!
Li Beiting was silent, just casually leaning against the door, silently watching Yu Weiwei.
A rational Yu Weiwei was much more pleasant to look at than an irrational one.
The video was very quiet until Yu Weiwei heard that one sentence: “Today, here, she hasn’t come, but I still want to make the same promise to her again—I’m willing to surrender a lifetime of glory, just to protect her peace and safety for a lifetime.”
That sentence echoed in the hallway for a long time, and it also echoed in Yu Weiwei’s heart for a long time.
Her calm heart was now like the sea under a tempest, with waves surging and unable to settle for a long time.
After that, it was Li Beiting handing over the Li Family’s company, giving up his position as CEO.
After the video finished playing, Yu Weiwei’s hands were still trembling.
With a “thud,” the phone fell to the ground…
Tears soaked her cheeks, and she wept soundlessly.
Her tears fell continuously like beads off a string, and her eyes reddened rapidly, and soon they were swollen.
The makeup on her face was smudged, and she disregarded everything, wiped her face with her hand, and kept wiping away her tears, but the tears just wouldn’t stop flowing.
“Crying like a smudged kitten,” he said.
Li Beiting took a handkerchief out of his pocket, approached her, and wiped the tearstains off her face.
“Starting to cry just like that, you’re even better than an actor,” Li Beiting said lightly with a smile.
“Li Beiting, are you stupid? Are you brain-deficient? Are you a pig-headed fool?” Yu Weiwei cried out, unable to make a sound, her voice choked with sobs.
“Silly girl, you’ve become the silliest of all!” Yu Weiwei continued to scold, “Why do you have to give up the company, your career, your future for me?!”
“Because it’s worth it,” Li Beiting said, curving his lips into a smile.
Yes, he had no regrets; the journey from the church to the research institute had given him plenty of time to coolly reflect on many things. But after much thought, there was only one answer; he had no regrets.
“What’s so worth it?!” Yu Weiwei scolded him, “I have a bad temper, I’m not very beautiful, I often argue with you, and I even learned the urology you hate so much. I’m not worth it, not worth it at all! Li Beiting, you are a fool! You’re still an immature brat! You’re just not mature!”
She was very upset, Li Beiting had broken ties with his family without a word for her sake, he had given up everything for her!
Yu Weiwei kept crying, tears streaming down nonstop.
Li Beiting reached out his finger and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
After a while, he took her into his arms and said with a mischievous smile, “Whether I’m mature or not, don’t you know by now? How about we verify it one more time?”
“Get lost, just get lost! Don’t think that because you’ve said something nice I will treat you well, Li Beiting, let me tell you, I still have the same bad temper, if I get angry, I’ll still scold you, hit you!”
