Ling Momo’s heart skipped a beat as she lifted her eyes towards Chen Wanru, uncertain whether she was overthinking or if it was a misperception, but she always felt that there was a hidden meaning in Chen Wanru’s words.
What does it mean, if he doesn’t want to lose face, naturally he wouldn’t let anyone have the chance to disgrace him?
Ling Momo couldn’t help but recall that night at the villa when, after listening to Li Qingshen briefly recount his love story, and as she was heading upstairs, he suddenly tilted his head and said to her with a double meaning, "Don’t let me lose too much face!"
Could it be that from the beginning, Li Qingshen knew she would make him lose face?
Ling Momo’s heart was suddenly in turmoil, and she furrowed her brow, "Chen, I don’t understand what you mean."
If Li Qingshen knew from the start, then why did he still help her to reveal his mythical status so resolutely?
Chen Wanru slowly turned her head away. Li Qingshen, being able to mix to his current status, was definitely not a simple person, so he could certainly foresee Ling Momo’s downfall.
Although she didn’t know what exactly had happened to Ling Momo, this was indeed an opportunity for growth. To watch helplessly as a chance that was within reach slipped away was perhaps the cruelest blow.
And it’s only such a blow that could make one smarter, become more mature. Follow current novᴇls on noveⅼfire.net
However, Li Qingshen really did invest heavily, using his own mythical reputation to teach a girl a lesson on her path to growth.
Even if he ended up being the laughingstock, he didn’t mind at all!
But of course, it was only this girl named Ling Momo who could make a cold and heartless man like Li Qingshen go through so much trouble!
Naturally, how could this girl named Ling Momo possibly know about all these painstaking efforts?
Chen Wanru couldn’t help but let out a light laugh, she shook her head slightly, lost in thought for a while, and then suddenly spoke again, "Li Qingshen is someone I wouldn’t dare to provoke, so I definitely can’t help you with this favor."
Ling Momo felt somewhat stunned when she heard Chen Wanru’s frank and straightforward refusal.
She also felt a slight embarrassment in the depths of her heart.
The atmosphere in the room became somewhat stiff.
Ling Momo stood there, pondering whether she should say goodbye and leave.
However, Chen Wanru tilted her head and thought for a while, then suddenly spoke again, "But still, what I said stands, I don’t like to be indebted to anyone. What you want I can’t give, but that doesn’t mean I won’t repay the favor."
As soon as Chen Wanru’s voice fell, she picked up her mobile phone from beside her, her fingers tapped on it a few times, and she dialed a number.
"Director Zhang, this is Wanru..."
Chen Wanru’s voice was especially seductive, making anyone who heard it feel a tingling sensation, but her expression was completely different from her tone—with a hint of scornful cold smile on her face.
"Wanru ah... you still remember me!" A man’s voice came from the phone, his tone was particularly flirtatious. Ling Momo stood a bit far away but could still easily hear.
"Not feeling well? Have you seen a doctor? Wanru, you can’t make things difficult for me, I have everything prepared, and I’ve already announced that tonight will be a surprise, with all the famous actors. If you’re missing, my reputation will be greatly damaged!"
"I know Director Zhang has prepared everything, and it would look bad if I were absent, but you see, I’m sick. If I force myself to go, I’m afraid it would dampen everyone’s spirits, so I’ve specially arranged everything..."
