Chapter 978 Love in the Present (10,000 words daily, please vote with monthly tickets!!!)
What kind of domineering CEO is protecting his sweet little wife?!

Upon reading the text message, Li Yang immediately recalled the plots of the short dramas his studio had produced.

At once.
My heart feels warm.

"Alright, stop talking about those messy things."

Li Yang changed the subject, saying, "Since we've met at a bar, we should definitely have a good drink together."

"is it?"

Lee Ji-eun joked, "Why would I worry that we'll have to pay the bill after we finish this?"

The moment the words left his mouth, Li Yang couldn't help but blurt out, "How did you know?"

Lee Ji-eun was stunned for a moment, then gritted her teeth and said, "Oh, you really think so?"

Beside her, Bae Joo-hyun couldn't help but chuckle at this clown's antics.

With just a few simple words, the atmosphere seemed to have completely warmed up.

As a professional streamer, Li Yang has excellent control over the conversation, and with all four of them possessing high emotional intelligence, the conversation quickly became quite lively.

"Let me tell you, back when Li Yang was just a small-time streamer, every time he came to me for a favor, he'd consider it a loss if he didn't take something with him."

"You'd better watch out for him. This guy says I'm cunning, but I think no one is more cunning than him."

They treat you like a treasure when they're begging for your help, but once they're no longer valuable, they'll just read your messages and not reply.

"."

Lee Ji-eun seemed to be really drunk, constantly pulling Bae Joo-hyun aside and complaining about her resentment towards Lee Yang.

Bae Joo-hyun also seemed to empathize, occasionally chiming in with a few words.

The two seemed to have hit it off immediately.

A while later, they even went to the toilet hand in hand.

Li Yang, naturally, stood by with a cheerful smile, seemingly in a much better mood as well.

However, his expression quickly returned to calm the moment he faced Bae Suzy.

Bae Suzy seemed used to it, and took the initiative to speak with a light laugh, saying, "I didn't expect that your life would be so much more exciting without me around."

Was it exciting?

Li Yang was in a good mood, unusually free of hostility, and said, "What can I do? If I could be a tycoon, who would want to be a clown?"

"Have you had a hard time?" Bae Suzy asked cautiously.

"I don't want to recall those things anymore. There's no need for us to reminisce. Continuing to dwell on those memories will only cause you pain and cause me trouble, so..."

Li Yang spoke directly and earnestly, saying, "Let's just treat each other as strangers, let bygones be bygones, isn't that better?"

"Yes, really?"

"it does not matter."

Bae Suzy's expression shifted slightly. She lowered her head slightly to hide her trembling eyes and smiled, "I think so too."

As she spoke, she quickly composed herself and gracefully extended her hand to Li Yang, smiling as she said, "Let's get to know each other again. Hello, I'm Bae Suzy!"

Li Yang looked at her outstretched hand and actually made a move.

But then, under Bae Suzy's disappointed gaze, he walked past her to the two people who were staggering back, helped Bae Joo-hyun up, and said with concern, "Look at you, you can't drink and you still drank so much, be careful not to fall."

Beside them, Lee Ji-eun, as if she had spilled a jar of jealousy, said, "Hey, can't you see there are people around? Shouldn't you be mindful of the occasion when you're showing off your love?"

"If you want to eat it, is it any of my business?"

Li Yang, as was his habit, exchanged a few words with Li Zhi'en, then thought for a moment and suggested, "It's getting late, I'll take Zhu Xuan and leave first, you two can continue drinking."

"You didn't even take us home. You have no conscience at all."

Lee Ji-eun complained with great dissatisfaction.

half an hour.

He only returned to his seat after the two left.

"They're gone?" Bae Suzy asked, as if belatedly realizing something.

"Otherwise what? Do you really expect him to stay and get back together with you?" Lee Ji-eun's words were blunt, yet tinged with a hint of exasperated anger. "You're not inexperienced with men; it's obvious you have no chance right now."

As Lee Ji-eun spoke, seeing her friend's increasingly somber expression, she found herself unable to continue, and could only sigh, "Why bother?"

As she spoke, her bright eyes regained their clarity.

She actually sobered up halfway through the conversation.

"I am not sure as well."

Bae Soo-ji shook her head, thought for a moment, and then said, "Perhaps it's because of a debt of gratitude?"

"owe?"

Lee Ji-eun complained, "How could you do such a thing? You knew he had a rift with Park Jin-young and the others, yet you still acted as a spy?"

"You don't understand."

Bae Suzy chuckled and slowly explained, "Li Yang's company is actually in a very bad situation. There are very few people who are willing to invest in it in the short term. If we screen some more from among them, compared to people like Fang Shihe and Li Xiuman, Park Jin-young is actually the best choice. We can't just watch Li Yang's company go bankrupt, can we? Besides, I can also mediate some things in the process."

"A double agent, huh? Tsk tsk, I'm almost moved by you!" Lee Ji-eun said with a tsk-tsk sound, but her attitude softened considerably.

She still believed Bae Suzy's words.

"But."

Lee Ji-eun thought for a moment, seemingly feeling a bit of a headache, and said, "This kind of thing is not easy to do. Li Yang definitely won't buy your favor. If it goes on for too long, once it's exposed, Park Jin-young will also hold a grudge against you."

"After achieving fame and success for many years, he helps his first love, whom he owed something in the past, to rise again, thus offending a group of powerful figures?"

Lee Ji-eun couldn't help but ask suspiciously, "This story sounds rather magical."

"right?"

Bae Suzy smiled wryly and said, "Actually, my mind is also a mess right now, otherwise I wouldn't have come to ask you to drink."

"Then let's have a drink first!"

Lee Ji-eun raised her glass, clinked glasses with another, and then asked, "So what's next?"

"What do you mean?"

"Li Yang!"

Lee Ji-eun couldn't help but say, "You've put in so much effort and thought, it can't all be just giving, right? Don't give me that insincere story about not being a good person, or I'll really start cursing."

"Originally it was"

As Bae Suzy spoke, her bitter smile deepened, and she said, "But given his current situation..."

He shook his head violently and said, "I don't know either."

On the other side, a gray BMW stopped not far from the residential area.

At night, the two walked hand in hand through the deserted streets.

Bae Joo-hyun's fair and delicate face still had a slight flush from the alcohol, but she seemed clear-headed. After walking a short distance, she suddenly asked with a playful smile, "You and that Bae Suzy... are you seeing each other?"

"You could have guessed that?" Li Yang joked.

"if not?"

Bae Joo-hyun couldn't help but roll her eyes and said, "You're the kind of person who hides your feelings very well before you've fully expressed them, and you're also very smooth and experienced. Yet, you treat Bae Soo-ji terribly. If I couldn't see that, wouldn't I be an idiot?"

Li Yang smiled, and then suddenly said, "Want to hear it? I can."

As she was speaking, her mouth was covered by a small, fair hand.

"I believe you can solve all the problems."

Bae Joo-hyun paused, her eyes darkening, and said, "Besides, it's not just her."

Li Yang chuckled twice.

This question has no solution and cannot be answered.

Bae Joo-hyun didn't care and said, "Besides, let bygones be bygones. You may have loved someone a lot at that point in time, but that's all in the past. It's not something I should be thinking about. I only care about the present."

As she spoke, Bae Joo-hyun looked up into Li Yang's eyes, her beautiful eyes gentle, her bright eyes and white teeth shimmering with a slight smile, and said, "I only need to be sure that you love me, that's enough!"

After saying that, she stood on tiptoe and gently kissed Li Yang on the lips.

She tried to leave, but someone grabbed her waist, pulled her back, and kissed her back with even more intensity.
