Chapter 857
Ye Junqing arched an eyebrow quizzically.
Following that, he heard Leng Chenmo say, “Once, I was a failure in love. At that time, I suddenly discovered that I was not of the Leng’s Family bloodline. Forced out by the family coup, I had no ground to stand on. Not wanting to trouble my father, who had raised and educated me from childhood, I left the Leng’s Family. I had my period of dejection until Tang Zhou found me, wanting to throw money at me to make me his subordinate. In my eyes, that was kicking me when I was already down, no different from the others who wanted to laugh at me and step on me as they pleased. Since he sought death, I decided to oblige him, and also take the opportunity to make an example of him, to let everyone know that although I had left the Leng’s Family, I was not someone anyone could just step on.”
Having said this, Leng Chenmo gripped his coffee cup tightly, his eyes flashing with a hint of regret.noveldrama
“Tang Zhou was a spiteful person, loved to make trouble, cared about face, and had a little secret that no one knew of. With the support of a bunch of brothers from the Ye’s Family, he could do as he pleased outside. If one didn’t understand him, it would be easy to label him as an obnoxious dandy, a spoilt brat who needed society to beat some sense into him. At that time, I wanted to give him that beating, to teach him a lesson so he wouldn’t be so arrogant and provoke everyone.”
“At that time, I didn’t know that all his mischief was just to get my attention; perhaps even he didn’t understand that the mischief was rooted in his secret affection for me. He couldn’t decipher his feelings, just liked to annoy me. It’s probably because some issues of his own prevented him from taking the step into a relationship, so he resorted to making a fuss to mask his longing for love. In the end, I gave him a brutal life lesson.”
Ye Junqing maintained the same position, holding his coffee without moving, his eyes deeply fixed on Leng Chenmo, for he already knew all of this!
At that time, he had wished he could chop Leng Chenmo into pieces, but Tang Zhou was disappointing, thoroughly handled by Leng Chenmo and even proactively clinging to him.
What Leng Chenmo was now reflecting on was also this matter: “I thought if I beat him harshly, he would learn his lesson and would dare not provoke me again. Instead, he came to me humbly seeking forgiveness, even when I ignored him, he still cast aside his pride and dignity, shamelessly trying to get close to me, just to stay by my side.”
“When I wanted to start my own company, he took out all his savings to sponsor me, without wanting me to find out. He just asked a friend to invest in my new company in the friend’s name;”
“Leng’s Family, those sheep in wolves’ clothing, couldn’t stand to see me rise again and were plotting against me in the shadows. Once when I was returning from a business trip, someone intended to stage a truck accident to kill me in a crash. He somehow got wind of it and in desperation, drove his sports car like a madman to collide with the truck. The two vehicles crashed, and he was severely injured, his car flung into the air by the truck, while I didn’t even realize I had escaped an accident. I just sat in my car and watched an accident happen outside the window, and then speed past it, unconcerned.”
“I remember once, on a snowy day like this, I was working overtime at the company. He ran to the hospital with a high fever to get an IV. Hearing that I hadn’t eaten dinner and was still working, he left the IV half done, just to go and buy me a late-night snack…”
