Three years of cold marriage without sleeping together, why are you crying after remarrying a powerf
Chapter 26 You're quite tolerant.
Fang Ze immediately stepped forward, standing between Shi Yue and Wang Ming, and explained:
"Mr. Wang, Shi Yue is my younger sister. She just graduated this year and lacks work experience. If she has done anything wrong, I apologize on her behalf and ask for your forgiveness."
Wang Ming gave a suspicious "Oh?", his gaze sweeping over Liang Yu before returning to Fang Ze, and said with a smile:
"No wonder Mr. Fang is so protective of Miss Shi. It seems that in Mr. Fang's eyes, his sister is far more important than the company's employees."
After a pause, Wang Ming's tone became stern:
"But Mr. Fang shouldn't have apologized to me on behalf of Miss Shi. The person Mr. Fang should apologize to is this person..."
Wang Ming pointed at Liang Yu and made a righteous and assertive conclusion:
"Your company employees."
Fang Ze was taken aback, looked at Liang Yu with disbelief, and then explained to Wang Ming:
"Mr. Wang, you may have misunderstood. When I arrived here just now, I did see this employee pushing Shi Yue. If I hadn't arrived in time, Shi Yue would definitely have been pushed down."
Fang Ze kept referring to Liang Yu as an employee, as if Liang Yu didn't even have a name.
Liang Yu remained calm as he watched Fang Ze, without uttering a single word in his defense.
She knew she had no advantage in this situation.
She knew that her nominal husband would definitely protect Shi Yue.
She was merely Fang Ze's nominal wife, whom he was unwilling to publicly acknowledge.
Ke Shiyue is Shi Ya's younger sister.
She might even maintain that kind of relationship with Fang Ze.
Liang Yu had completely given up on the idea of explaining the truth to Fang Ze.
She was just about to thank Wang Ming, say goodbye, and leave when she heard Wang Ming retort to Fang Ze:
"Mr. Fang, I wasn't talking about whether or not Miss Shi was pushed down."
"I just had someone check the banquet hall's surveillance footage. The video shows Ms. Shi spilling red wine on her dress and then splashing it on this lady."
"Furthermore, Miss Shi's dress has almost no visible wine stains, while this lady's wine stains are very obvious. Shouldn't Miss Shi apologize to this lady?"
"In my opinion, Ms. Shi's behavior has seriously affected the banquet. I hereby solemnly inform Ms. Shi to leave immediately."
Actually, it was Kang Liang who asked for the surveillance video to be pulled up.
Kang Liang just showed the surveillance video to Wang Ming and told him:
"President Yan dislikes that Miss Shi in the red dress and wants you to ask her to leave."
Yan Qi is Wang Ming's boss, so of course Wang Ming has to listen to Yan Qi.
Furthermore, Haicheng Private Equity was the host of the banquet, and Wang Ming was the executive chairman of Haicheng Private Equity. He had every right to make Shi Yue leave the banquet.
He didn't understand at first. It was just two ladies arguing, and Yan Qi hadn't even come. So why did it attract Yan Qi's attention?
He even specifically sent Kang Liang to deliver a message, instructing him to ask one of them to leave.
Ever since Wang Ming arrived here, he has been carefully observing these two ladies.
One of the women, dressed simply and without makeup, exuded a cool and radiant beauty.
When confronting Fang Ze and Miss Shi, there was a sense of déjà vu, like a delicate yet stunning little white flower blooming in a crevice of a cliff.
Is there anything Wang Ming doesn't understand?
This little white flower must have caught Yan Qi's eye.
Yan Qi asked him to come and drive Miss Shi away, definitely to support this innocent girl.
Now that Yan Qi has spoken, he must act as Yan Qi's protector today and safeguard this beautiful little white flower for Yan Qi.
Upon hearing Wang Ming's words, Fang Ze's brows furrowed slightly, and a barely perceptible hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes.
In Fang Ze's view, Shi Yue was his sister and Liang Yu was his wife, and the dispute between Shi Yue and Liang Yu was his family matter.
When did his family affairs become a matter for Wang Ming to meddle in?
Moreover, since Wang Ming arrived here, he has glanced at Liang Yu several times, which made Fang Ze feel inexplicably uneasy.
Liang Yu is his wife. Why is Wang Ming always watching his wife?
Wang Ming, an outsider, actually defended his wife right in front of him.
This made Fang Ze feel like a heavy stone was lodged in his chest, making him somewhat irritable.
However, Fang Ze was currently discussing capital increases with Wang Ming for a new project, so he didn't want to have a significant conflict with Wang Ming over these trivial matters.
Fang Ze had no choice but to maintain his formulaic smile and downplay the situation by saying to Wang Ming:
"Mr. Wang, this is just two girls playing around. How could it 'seriously affect the banquet'? I'll have them go downstairs and change their clothes. Let's continue our conversation."
Wang Ming would naturally not easily give up the opportunity to show off his achievements in front of Liang Yu.
He completely ignored Fang Ze's words, his gaze piercing through Fang Ze to look directly at Shi Yue, and he said sharply:
"Ms. Shi, apologize to this lady immediately! Otherwise, I'll have someone call the police and report you for causing trouble."
When Shi Yue heard Wang Ming say he was going to call the police, and considering that there were indeed security cameras in the banquet hall, she couldn't help but feel scared.
What if all the surveillance videos are pulled up and Fang Ze sees that she deliberately framed Liang Yu for pushing her down?
She didn't want Fang Ze to have even the slightest bad impression of her.
It's just an apology; Fang Ze is on her side anyway.
Thinking of this, Shi Yue's eyes immediately filled with tears. She pitifully tugged at Fang Ze, who was standing in front of her, and said with a wronged expression:
"Brother Fang Ze, I did accidentally twist my ankle and spilled red wine on Sister Liang Yu. I should apologize to Sister Liang Yu."
After Shi Yue finished speaking, she immediately leaned out from behind Fang Ze and looked at Liang Yu pitifully, saying:
"Sister Liang Yu, I'm sorry, it's all my fault. Can you forgive me this once?"
Shi Yue looked pitiful, as if she were the one who had been splashed with red wine, and that Liang Yu was just bullying her.
Seeing that Shi Yue had apologized, Wang Ming took the initiative to ask Liang Yu:
"Ms. Liang, how would you like to handle this matter? Ms. Shi's behavior can be considered disorderly conduct. If you wish to call the police, I can provide the surveillance video to them."
Liang Yu never expected this.
When she was being harassed by Shi Yue, her nominal husband didn't say a word in her defense. Instead, a complete stranger offered to help her seek justice.
Liang Yu smiled and looked at Wang Ming, wanting to thank him.
Before he could even speak, he heard Fang Ze's earnest plea for peace.
"Liang Yu, Shi Yue is young and immature. She acts impulsively without considering the consequences. Please forgive her this time."
Fang Ze's tone became very gentle, as if he were pleading for mercy.
In fact, Liang Yu did not want to escalate the matter to the point of calling the police.
But seeing Fang Ze plead with her in a low voice for Shi Yue, Liang Yu felt an absurd sense of being torn apart.
It turns out that Fang Ze could also lower his proud head and beg for peace with her in a soft voice.
It's obvious to anyone with eyes that someone holds an important place in Fang Ze's heart.
Liang Yu's clear eyes stared quietly at Fang Ze. After a long while, a mocking smile appeared on her lips as she softly replied:
"Okay, let's do it this way, Mr. Fang."
Then, looking at Wang Ming, he politely said:
"Mr. Wang, I will not pursue this matter further. Thank you for your kindness. I will not disturb you presidents any longer. I will take my leave now."
After speaking, he bowed slightly to Wang Ming, then turned and walked out of the banquet hall.
Wang Ming's gaze fell on Liang Yu's slender back, a faint smile playing on his lips.
Seeing this, Fang Ze felt a surge of anger rising within him, and immediately spoke up to draw Wang Ming's attention back:
"Mr. Wang, do you and Liang Yu know each other before?"
Wang Ming shook his head slightly and replied:
"First time meeting you."
After saying that, he immediately looked at Shi Yue and questioned her:
"Ms. Shi, what are you still doing here? Should we ask security to escort you out?"
Shi Yue looked at Fang Ze pitifully, about to ask him to speak up for her, when she heard Fang Ze say:
"Go back and change into your dress. I'll have Dong Xiao take you home."
After Fang Ze finished speaking, he and Wang Ming walked to the other side of the banquet hall.
Shi Yue stared at Fang Ze's retreating figure, stunned and frozen in place.
She thought Fang Ze would protect her as before and keep her here no matter what.
After leaving the banquet hall, Liang Yu entered the hotel elevator.
Just as the elevator doors were about to close, they opened again.
Yan Qi appeared opposite her.
Yan Qi, standing before me, was tall and imposing, yet he exuded a sense of suppressed tension. He possessed a powerful and oppressive aura on the outside, but his inner self was cold and damp.
Yan Qi stepped into the elevator and stood beside Liang Yu. Dark clouds seemed to be churning in his pupils beneath his long eyelashes.
Liang Yu looked up at Yan Qi, wanting to greet him, but met Yan Qi's cold gaze.
Liang Yu's words of greeting instantly stuck in his throat.
Then they heard Yan Qi's deliberately lowered voice, tinged with sarcasm:
"You're quite tolerant."
Liang Yu was taken aback, and after a few seconds of silence, he explained:
"Shi Yue was already hostile towards me, and I don't want to continue this cycle of revenge."
Liang Yu knew that Yan Qi had seen her confronting Shi Yue outside the banquet hall.
She thought that Yan Qi's "ability to tolerate" meant that after he saw the large wine stain on her body, he said that she had easily forgiven Shi Yue.
However, Liang Yu's explanation did not receive any response from Yan Qi.
She felt as if a sticky, damp mist was enveloping them, intensifying the suffocating oppression emanating from Yan Qi.
It made even her breathing much heavier.
On the way home, Yan Qi and Liang Yu did not exchange another word.
When Liang Yu got out of the car, Yan Qi opened the door for him as usual and watched him walk towards the gate of the house.
Before entering the room, Liang Yu turned around and glanced at Yan Qi.
He stood in the dim light and shadow, his broad shoulders and narrow waist resembling a cold, hard black stone sculpture, its sharp contours capable of cutting through the air.
As Liang Yu entered the house and closed the door, she was still thinking that Yan Qi must be angry with her for not pursuing Shi Yue today because she hadn't pursued the matter.
This suspicion persisted until the next morning when I went to work.
Throughout the entire journey, Yan Qi remained as still and silent as an ancient glacier.
As they parted, Liang Yu smiled and said to Yan Qi, "I left you a piece of toast in the car, remember to eat it."
Yan Qi's icy coldness softened, and he said gently, "Okay, thank you."
Liang Yu smiled and waved to Yan Qi before turning around and going to work.
After a few days of adjustment, Liang Yu is no longer so resistant to socializing.
Compared to how he used to hide his hands, Liang Yu decided that from today onwards, he would no longer deliberately conceal the fact that his hands trembled.
During her morning work session, Liang Yu's trembling hands were noticed by a colleague. Although she briefly wanted to avoid the situation, she didn't actually hide or feel uneasy. Instead, she proactively explained:
"I am not a Parkinson's patient. My hand was injured in a car accident, and it trembles easily when I exert myself. Don't worry, it won't affect my work, and it certainly won't affect yours."
This straightforward explanation made the colleague, who had intended to distance himself from Liang Yu, stop in his tracks and respond to Liang Yu with a knowing smile:
"No wonder you kept your hands in your pockets the other day. Actually, as long as you don't mind, others won't think it's a big problem."
The news that Liang Yu's hands were trembling quickly spread throughout the office.
To Liang Yu's surprise, instead of mocking or looking down on her to her face, she received tolerance and understanding from her colleagues when she was doing her work.
Even Li Li's attitude towards Liang Yu gradually returned to how it was at the beginning.
Just before lunch break, Liang Yu received a message from Fang Ze.
Come to my office, I need to speak with you about something important.
