Three years of cold marriage without sleeping together, why are you crying after remarrying a powerf
Chapter 30 I went to pick up the Zhang family
The acquaintance opposite Liang Yu instantly caught a glimpse of resistance in his eyes and brows.
He immediately composed himself and apologized with a serious expression:
"I'm so sorry, I couldn't see clearly because of the backlighting, I really mistook you for someone else."
After speaking, he nodded slightly to Liang Yu and then strode past Liang Yu.
Shi Yue raised her hand to lead the man toward the conference room, saying, "President Geng, this way please," but her surprised and inquisitive gaze fell on Liang Yu's back.
Geng Shi is the chief assistant of the Liang family group in Lincheng. The Liang family is an angel investor in the Fang family and holds shares in the Fang family.
Therefore, Geng Shi always represented the Liang family at every Fang family shareholders' meeting.
But just now, Geng Shi actually called Liang Yu "Miss".
In addition, Liang Yu's surname is indeed Liang, and the boss of the Liang family also has the surname Liang.
This stirred up an unbelievable wave in Shi Yue's heart, violently impacting her understanding.
The Liang Yu she heard from everyone in the Fang family was clearly a poor orphan who had no parents and had been raised by his grandmother since childhood.
How could someone like Liang Yu possibly be the eldest daughter of the Liang family?
If Liang Yu is indeed the eldest daughter of the Liang family, then why would she hide her identity?
The Liang Group is a family business, and the Liang family patriarch has billions in wealth. If Liang Yu were truly the eldest daughter of the Liang family, her net worth would certainly be several hundred million.
Could it be that Liang Yu concealed her identity from Fang's family simply to avoid revealing that she was worth hundreds of millions?
If Fang Ze knew that Liang Yu was the eldest daughter of the Liang family, wouldn't her plan be impossible to achieve?
As Shi Yue slowly recovered from her shock, she thought about it carefully and realized that such a thing could not possibly be true.
What woman would have a net worth of hundreds of millions but refuse to reveal it to her husband?
She even took on administrative work at the company, working herself to the bone, just to win her husband's attention.
There's no way there could be such a young lady.
There are many people with the surname Liang across the country; it's probably just a coincidence.
Geng Shi is only in his thirties, and he has neither nearsightedness nor presbyopia. Could he really have mistaken someone for someone else just because of the backlighting?
Shi Yuexin's heart sank, and she felt she had to get to the bottom of this matter.
Regardless of whether Liang Yu is truly the eldest daughter of the Liang family, she cannot let Liang Yu go.
She absolutely cannot let Liang Yu have his way.
She not only wanted to possess Fang Ze, but also wanted Liang Yu to die a humiliating death, to be buried with her hastily deceased sister.
After Liang Yu entered the elevator, he sent a message to Geng Shi.
[Assistant Geng, I don't want anyone in the Fang Group to know about my relationship with Liang An. Please keep it a secret.]
Geng Shi replied to the message instantly.
【Please rest assured, young lady, I will not reveal a single word to anyone else.】
Liang Yu put away his phone, recalling the scene where he had just bumped into Geng Shi.
Fortunately, Shi Yue was the only outsider present just now; otherwise, Geng Shi's inexplicable remark would have definitely sparked a wave of suspicion and gossip.
Geng Shi was ostensibly representing the Liang Group at the shareholders' meeting, but in reality, he was only representing Liang Yu.
Because all the shares that the Liang family owns in the Fang family belong to Liang Yu.
Liang Yu never told Fang Ze that Liang An was her father because she had long since severed ties with him.
She was abandoned by Liang An at birth and was raised by her maternal grandmother who earned money by picking mushrooms in the mountains.
When Liang was in his senior year of high school, his grandmother went up the mountain to pick mushrooms and accidentally slipped down the hillside, injuring her head and becoming a vegetable.
Liang Yu originally did not want to have anything to do with Liang An.
However, caring for a person in a vegetative state requires a lot of money. She was in her final year of high school at the time, and she wanted to go to university to become a doctor and awaken her grandmother.
At that time, Liang An had successfully started his business, amassed considerable wealth, married a young and beautiful wife, and had a son.
Therefore, Liang Yu had no choice but to seek help from Liang An.
At that time, Liang An was very generous with the money, not only helping to pay for his grandmother's care but also for her university tuition and living expenses.
However, this amount of money is small compared to the later investment of 60 million.
When Liang Yu approached Liang An to invest in Fangze, Liang An directly told Liang Yu:
"I have already paid for your grandmother's care, and I have also paid for your tuition and living expenses. I have fulfilled my obligations as a father."
"You're talking about tens of millions in investment right off the bat, do you think I'm in the mining business? Making money just by stretching my hand? What if I lose those tens of millions? Are you going to come back to me for the money?"
"I can give you 60 million, consider it a gift. You are responsible for your own profits and losses. However, I have one condition: you are not allowed to ask me for money again."
"This 60 million is to buy out our father-daughter relationship. From now on, don't say to outsiders that I am your father."
So until now, only a few close friends of Liang An know that Liang An has an eldest daughter, Liang Yu.
Near the end of the workday, Manager Wu announced that there would be a department dinner that evening, and Assistant Shi would also be attending.
Because Shih Yue was always in charge of liaising with the administration department, the administration department would invite Shih Yue to participate in any departmental activities.
The main reason is that the colleagues in the administration department all want to get along well with Shi Yue.
There's an unspoken rule in the office: you can't take leave for departmental dinners.
Liang Yu didn't want to make an exception, so he had no choice but to participate. An hour before leaving get off work, he sent Yan Qifa a message.
[There's a department dinner tonight, so I won't be able to leave work on time. I can take a taxi home myself. You're given the night off; you don't need to pick me up.]
Yan Qi replied instantly.
Send me your table number when you arrive at the restaurant, and I'll pick you up after the gathering.
Liang Yu was very happy to see the message and replied with a cute "Okay" emoji.
Liang Yu put away his phone and continued working. Half an hour later, his phone vibrated.
She opened her phone and saw a message from Fang Ze.
Let's go home together tonight. I've asked Aunt Mei to cook some of your favorite dishes.
Since Fang Ze was called away by a phone call on Saturday, Liang Yu thought Fang Ze had forgotten that she hadn't come home.
After all, Fang Ze is a very busy person. After finishing his work, he also has to take care of his beloved sister. He doesn't have time to worry about whether she comes home or not.
Moreover, she has been living in Redwood Bay for a long time, and Fang Ze has never cared. Why is he now so obsessed with "bringing her home"?
If this had happened in the past, Liang Yu would definitely have been overjoyed and twirled around.
But she feels very annoyed right now.
The villa in Redwood Bay looks like a beautiful castle, perfect and complete from afar. But once you move in, you're like a carp in a fishbowl, spending your whole life circling around the four walls.
Liang Yu stared at his phone screen for a long time without responding, and only replied after more than ten minutes.
[We have a work dinner party tonight, so I won't have time for Aunt Mei's cooking. You can go home first.]
Ever since Fang Ze sent Liang Yu the message, he has been checking his phone almost every minute.
More than ten minutes passed, and there was still no sound from his phone. He even suspected that the office's network cable was down and the 5G network was blocked.
Until the phone on the table suddenly vibrated, he picked it up like a drowning man seeing a piece of driftwood.
Fang Ze eagerly opened his phone, but upon seeing Liang Yu's message, his hand holding the phone froze, and a sense of emptiness welled up inside him.
That shouldn't be the case.
He took the initiative to coax Liang Yu, so how could Liang Yu refuse?
Fang Ze started scrolling up the chat history.
He noticed that Liang Yu hadn't replied to any of the messages he'd sent her recently, but before that, Liang Yu had been sending him messages one after another.
He would occasionally reply with a single word, and Liang Yu would reply instantly, but he never actually read Liang Yu's messages.
You can't blame him. He's too busy. He has to reply to hundreds of messages every day. How could he have time to care about the trivial family matters that Liang Yu sends?
He just couldn't understand when Liang Yu stopped sending him messages.
Fang Ze scrolled through the chat page, finally stopping at the last message Liang Yu had sent.
That was a message Liang Yu sent at 2 a.m.: "When are you coming back?"
Fang Ze's thoughts drifted back to those days as these words were spoken.
He remembered that Liang Yu always told him during those days that she had something to say to him.
He couldn't guess what they were talking about, only that it would be some trivial family matters.
In addition, he was really busy those days. The new project was at a critical stage, and he was working day and night, focusing all his energy on the project.
So at that time he completely ignored what Liang Yu said.
After that message, Liang Yu asked him for a divorce and then stopped sending him messages.
Even when he texted her saying "I'll take her on vacation when I'm done with this," it didn't appease her.
At the time, he didn't care about any of that, nor did he ask Liang Yu what was so important that she was so determined to tell him.
Looking back now, those words that Liang Yu wanted to say but didn't must have been the root of his constant temper tantrums.
Fang Ze let out a long sigh of relief.
Now that he'd found the reason, he should just go to Liang Yu and get her to say those things.
Ultimately, he still has the temper of a child.
They make a huge fuss over the slightest thing.
Fang Ze summoned Dong Xiao and instructed him:
"Contact Manager Wu and ask where they're having dinner. Let me know before they finish so I can pick them up and take them home."
Dong Xiao immediately agreed and went out to contact Manager Wu.
This was Liang Yu's first time attending a department dinner. Although everyone there was familiar, she still felt very uncomfortable in the unfamiliar environment.
So Liang Yu just held her drink and sucked on the straw the whole time, without moving or saying a word, and no one questioned her.
Because she had Dong Xiao as her backer, and because she had aftereffects from a car accident on both hands, all her colleagues treated her like she was invisible.
But Shi Yue at the dinner table was different.
She was treated like a star, placed in the main seat, and sat next to Manager Wu.
During the meal, all of Shi Yue's colleagues toasted her one after another, showering her with flattery and fawning over her with smiles.
Some of her colleagues, emboldened by alcohol, even started calling Shi Yue "Mrs. Fang."
Shi Yue wasn't embarrassed at all. She happily accepted the toast offered by the other party, and before drinking, she didn't forget to give Liang Yu a provocative glance.
After Manager Wu received Dong Xiao's call, he also joined the ranks of those flattering Shi Yue.
Normally, when someone fawns over Shi Yue and calls her "Mrs. Fang," Manager Wu would remain silent. But today, Manager Wu not only didn't stay silent, but also joined in the toast.
As Liang Yu watched everyone crowding towards Shi Yue, he almost wanted to raise his drink and join them in toasting her, wishing her a speedy path to becoming Mrs. Fang.
The boring dinner party was finally coming to an end, and Liang Yu had long since drunk his fill of water.
Just as everyone was about to leave, Manager Wu raised his voice and spoke:
"No one is allowed to leave. We must all wait for an important guest!"
Those present began to whisper among themselves.
The dinner party is over, so what important guest would arrive at this time?
Everyone present eagerly awaited the news.
While everyone was whispering, Liang Yu secretly slipped away to the restroom.
When I returned to the private room, I could hear cheers from inside, even through the door:
"Mr. Fang, you actually came?"
"Mr. Fang, are you here to pick up Assistant Shi and take her home?"
"Assistant Shi is so lucky! President Fang actually came to pick her up in person."
Liang Yu stood in the shadows outside the private room, no longer wanting to go in.
Just as she was about to turn and leave, the door to the private room was pulled open from the inside, and the warm light from the incandescent bulbs poured out, illuminating Liang Yu's face.
Fang Ze and Liang Yu stood facing each other, surrounded by people in the private room.
In an instant, their eyes met in mid-air.
