Untamed Passionate Kiss

Chapter 56: Rekindling the Bond?

Meng Yang looked at Liang Yutang with a half-smile.

"It seems he's really grown up, has his own ideas now, and wants to stand up for his family."

He naturally guessed that it was Bian Yu who had summoned Liang Yutang.

In the past, Liang Yutang, as Meng Yang's assistant, would not attend business dinners.

Miss Liang: "Serving people? I can't do that."

Now that the Liang family is facing a crisis, she steps forward.

Liang Yutang: "Brother, I'm 29."

Meng Yang paused, realizing he had forgotten this fact.

In his memory, Liang Yutang was still that little girl who was afraid to sleep alone and wanted to share a bed with him.

Since Bian Yu appeared, Liang Yutang has changed a lot, but she is unaware of it.

Meng Yang, being an observer, had a clearer perspective and naturally saw through many details.

He had a high sense of self-respect. It was precisely because he realized that his feelings for Liang Yutang were special.

So much so that she couldn't accept that her heart had already been given to someone else.

He was determined to break off the engagement, partly because Liang Yutang had gone too far and completely disregarded his feelings.

On the other hand, he wanted to see Liang Yutang anxious, hear her explanation, and see her try to win him back.

At least, this proves that he still holds a place in her heart.

But that heartless little girl only used him as a tool from beginning to end.

Meng Yang was so angry that she spoke without thinking, and she had no intention of coaxing him at all.

Although Liang Yutang honestly admitted her mistake, she kept saying: "Don't call off the engagement, I love you..."

These words are nowhere to be found.

Meng Yang had already uttered those harsh words, but there was no way to take them back.

So he and Liang Yutang returned to their previous positions.

Recently, rumors have spread that the Liang family is on the verge of collapse, and Meng Yang is also waiting for help. Liang Yutang personally asked for help.

Unexpectedly, after waiting and waiting, she only turned her attention to Bian Yu.

Is a living person right in front of him dead?

The girl who used to rely on him to solve everything is gone forever.

Meng Yang: "Don't blame me for not reminding you, Bian Yu is already married."

He walked side by side with Liang Yutang toward the private room, offering friendly reminders as they went.

The private room was at the far end, quite a distance away. The two people's footsteps echoed clearly as they walked one after the other on the marble floor tiles.

Each sound seemed to knock on the door of the heart.

Liang Yutang: "Is there a rule in the underworld that married people can't discuss business?"

She feigned composure, refuting Meng Yang's reverie, and incidentally poked Meng Yang's chest.

"Bian and I are completely innocent; we prohibit the spread of rumors at zero cost."

Meng Yang raised his hand and grasped her fingers, finally unable to resist testing her.

"You'd rather shamelessly ask your ex for help, treating me like I'm dead. Isn't it normal for me to have unnecessary fantasies?"

Liang Yutang withdrew her finger, dodging the question: "Watch your words, you're my ex."

Meng Yang: Here we go again, when faced with a difficult question, you change the subject.

"It's much better than you guys who just stay silent when there's a problem, pfft."

As they approached the door of the private room, Meng Yang stopped causing trouble and stepped aside to let Liang Yutang pass.

Liang Yutang stepped forward, grasped the doorknob, and remained in a pushing posture.

But she didn't make a move for a long time.

Meng Yang looked at her profile with a puzzled expression, when the girl suddenly spoke.

"If we got married, even if you were a good-for-nothing, I would still squeeze every last drop of resources out of the Meng family, but we didn't."

Liang Yutang seemed to have thought it through carefully before speaking.

"Uncle Meng is indeed in a high position, but my status is not legitimate. If I were Mrs. Meng, the bank staff would give me face, but I am not. Even if I entrust my assets to you, Uncle Meng would still need to personally speak to the bank. You understand better than me the difference between someone else giving the green light and Uncle Meng asking for it."

Once they open their mouths, they've given others ammunition. If someone with ulterior motives uses this as leverage in a political struggle, the Meng family will also be in trouble.

Liang Yutang didn't want to drag Meng Yang into this.

She had actually thought of such a profound level, which made Meng Yang feel a tightness in his chest, but also a sense of admiration.

Perhaps he had always been deceived by Liang Yutang's cynical appearance and underestimated her.

"Make way."

Suddenly another sound broke in.

Meng Yang and Liang Yutang turned around at the same time and saw Bian Yu and his assistant.

He was wearing a custom-made dark charcoal suit. Although thin, he had broad shoulders with sharp shoulder lines, giving him a commanding presence.

However, compared to that white suit, her temperament was completely different.

Although it looks nice, it adds a few shadows out of nowhere.

I don't know when Bian Yu arrived, how much he saw, or how much he heard, but he always looked very serious.

The initial purpose of this meeting was for the project team working on autonomous taxis, and Meng Yang was naturally present.

When they took their seats, Liang Yutang naturally sat next to Meng Yang, as if she felt safe.

At the large round table that seated over twenty people, Zhang Liang and his father sat opposite each other, waving enthusiastically in the direction of Liang Yutang and Meng Yang.

Bian Yu took his seat in the very center, and the banquet began. As the host, he took the initiative to raise a glass.

Next came everyone's outlook on the future of Jingzhou.

There were honest words and polite remarks. The mix of truth and falsehood gave Liang Yutang a headache, so she simply ate her food in silence.

To appear closer to Bian Yu, Zhang Liang took the initiative to talk about his private life.

Zhang Liang: "I heard that General Bian works out in his spare time and also learns free fighting. He is truly proficient in all six arts of a gentleman."

Bian Yu: "I had a serious illness when I was in the United States and almost didn't make it through. That's when I realized the importance of staying healthy."

The president of Jingxing Bank chimed in, "Is Mr. Bian referring to the pandemic six years ago?"

Bian Yu hummed in agreement, took a sip of red wine, and seemed lost in thought.

Then, everyone started talking about how much of a commotion had been going on in Jingzhou back then.

But to Bian Yu's ears, it all sounded like: one after another, they wished they could expose him from head to toe.

Fortunately, he made arrangements before returning to China, and he kept quiet about his relationship with Liang Yutang.

I never expected that Zhang Liang would slip through the net.

Suddenly, the president of a commercial bank looked at Liang Yutang.

"I heard that Miss Liang also fell seriously ill during that time and even had surgery abroad. Could it be that she also suffered from it?"

Caught off guard, Liang Yutang abruptly stopped spinning the table.

This perfectly aligns with Bian Yu's inquisitive perspective.

She panicked and, "Uh," couldn't think of a suitable lie for a moment.

Meng Yang reached out and helped her turn the table, speaking naturally as she did so.

"This is my fault. When we returned to the headquarters in the US, she said she wanted to go back to her alma mater with us. As a result, due to my negligence, we had a minor car accident, which had nothing to do with the pandemic."

The Liang and Meng families have a good relationship, and the two of them almost got married, as everyone here knows.

It's a pity it didn't work out; it's probably related to the car accident.

After all, upon returning from the US, Meng Yang publicly refuted the media's claim of a perfect match—

"Yutang and I are siblings, brothers, and close relatives, but not lovers."

At this moment at the dinner table, Meng Yang, intending to save face for Liang Yutang, spoke in a tone of detachment, as if things had changed.

"Yutang has always been afraid of pain. After the car accident, she blamed me for not protecting her properly and dumped me in a fit of anger."

As he spoke, the man looked at her with deep affection.

Liang Yutang almost had a moment of disbelief, thinking that what he was saying came from the bottom of his heart.

In order to make the performance more realistic, Meng Yang added fuel to the fire.

"I'll take this opportunity to speak my mind. If someone forgives me, we might even rekindle our relationship."
