Chapter 170 I Don’t Want to Accept Passively
Chapter 170 I Don’t Want to Accept Passively
My palms are burning.
Crispy and numb.
My whole body felt weak.
It was obviously a very normal action, but under the catalysis of Sheng Yuan's affectionate eyes, it seemed extremely affectionate and charming.
One more look and you'll fall.
Lin Mingmo wanted to pull her hand back, but Sheng Yuan held her wrist tightly.
He didn't let go, just looked at her.
Lin Mingmo realized belatedly that although Sheng Yuan seemed to be apologizing humbly, the real control was still in his hands.
He really is...good at it.
Every move can make Lin Mingmo dizzy.
The temperature in the office is gradually rising.
Lin Mingmo felt a little hot, and the exposed skin was obviously red.
"Momo..." Sheng Yuan whispered again.
He tilted his head and kissed Lin Mingmo's wrist, lightly sweeping it with the tip of his tongue. The wet and warm touch made her tremble all over.
"Sheng Yuan...you..." Lin Mingmo panicked, fearing that someone would break in and witness this scene.
That's really... really...
Lin Mingmo didn't dare to think about it any further.
If her self-control was any weaker, she would have surrendered.
But this time, she didn't want to forgive so easily.
No! No! No…
Lin Mingmo screamed in her heart countless times before she managed to maintain her sanity.
"Sheng Yuan, I know what conditions you offered to return to Shengshi Group." Lin Mingmo stared into his eyes. "To prevent your plan from going astray, let's just... forget it."
The light tail sound dissipated lightly in the air.
The person who originally said that he would never compromise finally chose to compromise.
This time, he asked her to keep her distance and wait for him.
Until when? Until he gets the Shengshi Group? Shengshi Group is surrounded by wolves, and so many people are eyeing that position. Can he guarantee that he will get it?
If the Sheng family asks him to marry a girl next time, will he compromise again?
Lin Mingmo couldn't help but raise the corner of her mouth and smiled sarcastically.
Sheng Yuan's eyes suddenly froze, and then his brows furrowed, his eyes half-closed.
He looked steadily into Lin Mingmo's eyes, examining her expression, and could not see a trace of coquettishness.
Does this mean...she is serious?
"Forget it?" Sheng Yuan's voice suddenly cooled down and returned to normal. "Why?"
"Well... forget it." Lin Mingmo repeated, "There's no reason. Why would there be so many whys?"
Sheng Yuan's hand loosened.
Lin Mingmo was finally able to withdraw her hand and bend her stiff arms.
The palm of his hand was still warm and numb, then quickly cooled down, just like Sheng Yuan's eyes.
"After all, I have my own life and my own path. Sheng Yuan, I can't always be a passive recipient of your plans." Lin Mingmo murmured, "I really can't stand it..."
Sheng Yuan's eyes dimmed a lot, and he showed a rare look of panic.
He rolled his eyes, knowing what Lin Mingmo was concerned about, and breathed a sigh of relief.
"I'm sorry...Momo, I'm used to making decisions alone." Sheng Yuan apologized softly.
He stood up slowly, looking from up to down.
The aura is fierce.
Sheng Yuan always makes his own decisions.
He doesn't like asking for other people's opinions, nor does he like sharing his ideas with others.
Including this time.
"Yes... You can make your own decisions in the future without having to consider me..." Lin Mingmo lowered her head and responded indifferently.
Sheng Yuan frowned, and a storm gradually brewed in his eyes.
"Then when you reached a cooperation with Sheng Yang, you didn't consider me... Lin Mingmo, do you know that your decision has ruined the plan I had been planning for a long time..."
"He can linger in Shengshi Group for a while longer."
He looked into her eyes.
After receiving the message from Mo Zheng, Sheng Yuan knew that Sheng Yang had found a brilliant way to break the deadlock.
Mo Bozhao can help him get through this difficult time smoothly.
Of course, this was all thanks to Lin Mingmo. After all, Mo Bozhao was a seasoned veteran of the business world, and he wouldn't fall into such an obvious trap for no reason.
He was just surprised why Lin Mingmo chose to help Sheng Yang.
He had wanted to ask Lin Mingmo in a gentler way after coaxing her, but given the current situation... Sheng Yuan couldn't suppress his anger and simply pointed it out directly.
"Why do you want to help him?" Sheng Yuan stared at her and asked coldly.
It’s not that I’m really curious, I just want to know how Lin Mingmo will explain it.
"I..." After Lin Mingmo said one word, her heart suddenly felt blocked and she couldn't speak.
So that's how it is. No wonder Sheng Yang had to force me to persuade Mo Bozhao to sign the contract.
It turns out it was because of Sheng Yuan...
But...can this be blamed entirely on her?
Lin Mingmo knew nothing. She only knew that Sheng Yang, that madman, didn't get what he wanted, and might really use the child in Lin Xingxi's belly to vent his anger.
She had just lost her child, and she could fully understand the regret and pain.
Even if there is only a one in ten thousand chance, she will prevent that thing from happening to Lin Xingxi.
Lin Mingmo raised her eyes to meet Sheng Yuan's, and chuckled with feigned disdain, "This is a matter between him and me, there's no need to report it to you. Besides, Sheng Yang's ability to find a way to resolve this crisis is also his ability..."
In order to go against Sheng Yuan, Lin Mingmo went against her conscience.
Sheng Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly, narrowed his eyes, and a hint of doubt and anger appeared on his face.
"Heh...his abilities?" Sheng Yuan chuckled. "When did you think so highly of him?"
"Just now, after the comparison." Lin Mingmo continued following Sheng Yuan's words, although she was full of contempt for Sheng Yang in her heart.
"Lin Mingmo!" Sheng Yuan called her name angrily.
"Vice President Sheng." Lin Mingmo addressed him even more distantly. "If there's nothing else, I'm going to get busy with work. Qianyi isn't like Shengshi Group, which can afford a bunch of 'CEOs' who just sit there and do nothing... Everyone here has to do their job. We don't have that much time to waste on these boring things!"
Lin Mingmo's words were full of sarcasm, but they were too ineffective to harm Sheng Yuan.
Sheng Yuan shook his head and couldn't help laughing.
"It shouldn't be like this...it shouldn't be like this." Sheng Yuan whispered, "Lin Mingmo, we're both a little angry right now. We need to calm down."
At this time, it is too easy to be emotional and it is not appropriate to make any decisions.
"Who's angry? You?" Lin Mingmo shrugged and said calmly and decisively, "I'm not angry."
It’s really hard to coax him, Sheng Yuan laughed softly and shook his head.
"Momo..."
Sheng Yuan had just opened his mouth when the office door was suddenly pushed open.
Lin Mingmo looked annoyed and was about to scold the visitor for not knocking on the door, but she froze instantly when she saw the man's face.
Seeing Lin Mingmo's expression was not right, Sheng Yuan turned his head to look at her, and immediately frowned, and asked in a stern voice: "What are you doing here?"
"Am I disturbing you two?" Fang Yaqi still smiled brightly.
If you don't know her well, you might not be able to hear the sarcasm in her words.
When Lin Mingmo saw Fang Yaqi, she thought of what happened on the yacht and the unborn child she had lost...
Her breathing became rapid, her chest felt stuffy, and her face became increasingly ugly.
"Ah Yuan, does your secret meeting with Lin Mingmo count as a violation of the agreement?" Fang Yaqi said with a smile. "However, considering our close friendship in the past, I won't complain to the old lady."
"Fang Yaqi!" Lin Mingmo stood up and glared at Fang Yaqi. "I can accept it if you blame me, hate me, and dislike me... But why do you want to stab me in the back and find someone to harm me?"
Fang Yaqi crossed her arms over her chest and looked at Lin Mingmo with cold eyes.
Even Sheng Yuan didn't hold her accountable... Lin Mingmo is doing this now, could it be that she is saying this on purpose to trick her?
Fang Yaqi sneered, as if seeing through her.
Seeing Fang Yaqi's nonchalant expression, Lin Mingmo grew even more furious. She gritted her teeth and said, "My child is gone... How can you still appear before me so brazenly?"
"Child?" Fang Yaqi remained indifferent, speaking nonsense casually, "Oh... who hasn't had abortions? Sheng Yuan is such a playboy, he probably owes a lot of debts, it wouldn't be surprising if he had an illegitimate child one day."
"Fang Yaqi! Shut up!" Sheng Yuan's expression was grim, and his eyes were like sharp arrows shooting straight into Fang Yaqi's eyes.
"What...what?" Lin Mingmo's lips were slightly open, and she was absent-minded.
She turned her head stiffly and looked at Sheng Yuan, "Is what she said... true?"
