Dressed as a Man, I Became Tycoon's Sweetheart novel Chapter 920

Chapter 920: Chapter 919: Choosing Beauty Over Power

He amended his words under the threat of Bo Tingshen’s squinting eyes, "Colleague!"

"CEO, he’s taking advantage of me!"

Ye Xian pouted and complained to Bo Tingshen, when a call suddenly came in.

"I’ll settle the score with you later."

Ye Xian tossed aside the script, took out her phone, and to her surprise, it was her dad calling?

Usually, isn’t it mom or second brother who calls from home...

Ye Xian answered the phone, and behind her came the sound of a click and a wail from Shangguan Yunli, "Tingshen, you actually went for it, take it easy, take it easy, I’ve been feeling a bit kidney deficient lately..."

"Okay, I understand."

Ye Xian hung up the phone, feeling somewhat lost.

Bo Tingshen noticed it, released Shangguan Yunli, and walked over, "What’s wrong, whose call was it?"

She turned around, her expression somewhat grave as she looked at him, "It’s a call from my dad, he wants us to go home."

"Together?"

"Mmm, it seems to have something to do with the Lu Family, and it sounds quite serious."

"CEO!"

Pang Kai’s phone suddenly rang, he opened it, and looked up in surprise, "Email just came from Lu Group, they’ve... refused the collaboration."

Shangguan Yunli: "What collaboration did they refuse? With Meng’s?"

"Yes, yes!"

"What a joke," Shangguan Yunli said in disbelief, "AKAM, such a massive mechanical manufacturing group, agreed to collaborate with Lu’s all because of Tingshen, yet they not only don’t treasure it but rejected it? Their company is so precarious; if they don’t operate, their capital chain would be broken, won’t it? Could it be... that Lu Cen truly wants beauty over the kingdom? He doesn’t seem like someone so lacking in ambition."

"What beauty over kingdom," Ye Xian: "I’m not even familiar with him."

"Otherwise, how do you explain his reason for rejecting such a windfall like AKAM?"

In the depths of Bo Tingshen’s calm, pond-like dark eyes surged a trace of cold gleam, he held Ye Xian’s hand, "Let’s go home." 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

Shangguan Yunli: "I want to go too!"

Tingshen has always been the type to prioritize courtesy before force, this time he personally went to Jin City to handle the AKAM case because of Ye Xian and the Ye Family, who would’ve thought the Lu Family to be so ungrateful, the upcoming matters won’t be as fortunate.

But he truly wanted to see what exactly the Lu Family could rely on to compete with Tingshen for someone.

Elegant Royal Court Villa District, Ye Family.

In the hall, the atmosphere was silent, Father Ye and Mother Ye sat on the couch, sighing from time to time, Ye Juncheng comforted them, while Ye Shaowen paced under the light, even his shadow revealed a hint of anger.

"I really misjudged that Lu Cen, I thought he was a decent person, but he turns out to be two-faced, claiming to adhere to some ancient martial rules, but he didn’t say that when he came to visit the family, I think he just covets Xiao Yezi but doesn’t dare admit it!"

"Shaowen," Ye Zhuoxuan sternly reprimanded, his tone full of helplessness, "don’t say that, it’s us who broke the contract first, we owe the Lu Family."

"Dad, it’s only us who broke the contract, didn’t they also breach it? What did Lu Cen say initially? As long as Xiao Yezi disagrees, the marriage contract would be canceled, now he’s changed his stance, saying something about promises, family rules, that to cancel the marriage contract one has to go through a life and death arena, and they even specially invited the strongest disciple from the sect, and have sent out invitations, what’s their intention? They want to force Xiao Yezi to marry, refusing would lead to the Ye Family’s ruin?"

"I think you were previously deceived by that brat’s hypocrisy, the reason he dared to say that if Xiao Yezi didn’t develop feelings within three months, the marriage contract would be canceled, was due to overconfidence, thinking that Xiao Yezi would surely like him, not knowing about Bo Tingshen’s existence, now realizing the strong rival, he immediately reneged, simply Bo Tingshen wasn’t even arrogant..."

At least Bo Tingshen was humble in front of mom and dad and didn’t make any false promises.

Ye Juncheng: "Now talking about this won’t solve anything, we have to think of a way to handle the arena situation."
