Untamed Passionate Kiss

"Okay, I forgive you."

Liang Yutang instantly got into character, her eyes crinkling as she looked at Meng Yang.

"Should we make up today, or tomorrow?"

Meng Yang scoffed at the fact that she could say such things.

How can making up be such a trivial matter?

It was clearly a joke, and everyone burst into laughter.

The fact that Meng Yang could say these words in public shows that their personal relationship was still intact.

His move was merely a warning shot, a message to the bank executives present.

It's best to carefully consider whether or not to extend the loan to the Liang family.

Liang Yutang knew perfectly well what was going on, which is why she cooperated with him in this performance.

This adds another layer of security to the dinner party, making it even more secure.

Bian Yu noticed it too, and like everyone else present, he had a beaming smile on his face.

"I'm starting to really like Mr. Meng and Ms. Liang," he said.

Liang Yutang looked over, and the man's smile became even more pronounced, stinging her eyes.

"Oh? They have to be the head of our CP (couple) fandom over there. It wouldn't be right for the head of the fandom not to give us a project, would it?"

At crucial moments, she still has some cleverness; at least she knows how to throw out a brick to start a fire.

As long as Bian Yu brings up the project at this point, the Liang family's loan renewal will be completely secured.

Bian Yu turned his head away, a smile on his face, but his posture indicated a refusal to communicate.

The surname is Bian!

Liang Yutang didn't know what was wrong with him, such a good opportunity.

She bit her inner lip in annoyance after being turned away.

In an attempt to curry favor with Bian Yu, Zhang Liang's father kept bringing up topics that were difficult to discuss.

"Ugh, I knew those marketing accounts loved to write nonsense. A few days ago, they actually paired Mr. Bian and Ms. Liang together. These unscrupulous media outlets are sure to win a lawsuit. Mr. Bian just needs to say something, and I happen to have several top law firms to work with."

Completely ignoring Zhang Liang kicking his father's leg under the table.

Bian Yu remained silent, as did Meng Yang.

Caught in the middle of the scandal, Ms. Liang felt her scalp tingle.

"It's my fault too."

After thinking it over, Liang Yutang took the initiative to clarify.

"I'm used to joking around, and I thought I'd post a Weibo to ride on Bian Zong's popularity, but someone with ulterior motives used it to make a fuss, causing Bian Zong's stock price to drop by several points."

As she spoke, Liang Yutang stood up, holding a wine glass, and walked over to Bian Yu in a very professional manner.

As she approached, she raised her glass: "This is an apology. Thank you, President Bian, for your generosity in allowing me to attend this banquet attended by so many bigwigs."

She learned a little Mandarin online, but it wasn't very polished; it sounded forced and awkward.

The commercial bank manager who had just spoken realized that she was a complete novice, and immediately whispered to the Jing City bank manager next to him.

Even if you're far away, you can't hear exactly what was said.

But Liang Yutang could guess that she would never amount to anything.

She believed that the Liang family line ended with her generation.

At the crucial moment, Bian Yu finally picked up the cup.

"The Liang family's position in the real economy is akin to an aircraft carrier. Even without its former glory, it's still a formidable force. If I, Bian, were to have the honor of becoming Miss Liang's ex, it wouldn't be a disgrace."

The man's lips twitched slightly, the curve almost perfect.

His words were polite and dignified, and they also helped Liang Yutang save face.

Just as their glasses were about to touch, Bian Yu suddenly paused, deliberately lowering his arm slightly.

So the cups, which were originally parallel, became one above the other, thus completing the crisp collision.

Liang Yutang didn't understand what he was up to with his fancy tricks, and her delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly.

But in front of everyone, she still obediently drank the wine in her glass.

Strangely, when she returned to her seat, the other six bank managers all stood up and raised their glasses to her.

The words of praise were more and more pleasing to the ear than the last.

Huh? Why is the plot different from what she expected?

Liang Yutang, filled with suspicion, barely managed to finish the last sip of wine.

Meng Yang knew that Liang Yutang wanted to save the Liang family, so he had to give her these six cups of wine as a gesture of respect, so he didn't stop her.

As the dinner was drawing to a close, the six bank presidents even took the initiative to exchange their contact information with Liang Yutang.

The meal was well worth it, and Liang Yutang was overjoyed.

When emotions are running high, alcohol takes effect quickly.

As the party was ending, she went to the restroom to tidy up and ran into Bian Yu, who had followed her there.

She washed her hands in the pool, and so did he. They were both bent over, side by side.

Bian Yu's voice, muffled by the flowing water, made it difficult to discern whether his emotions were genuine or feigned.

"Next month, after we get the loan, we'll prepare a detailed project progress report and then come to the frontier building to sign the contract."

Liang Yutang: "Are you absolutely, positively, and certain that you'll get the loan?"

Bian Yu was too lazy to explain to her, and only instructed: "When the contract is signed, don't let the news of the cooperation between the two families spread for the time being."

Why?

"I will have my assistant add a clause to the contract—Liang's must secure the corresponding patents and parts manufacturers related to the project before the contract will officially take effect."

Liang Yutang said anxiously, "Can't you just let me catch my breath first?"

She was a little sullen.

"We finally secured the loan, now's the time to make a big fuss and build momentum. You want me to stay quiet? Doesn't that mean I have to negotiate with those patent and parts suppliers empty-handed? Bian Yu, you're deliberately causing me trouble! Are you still holding a grudge about what happened back then...?"

Bian Yu: "Don't bring up 'back then' or 'this year'."

The man's tone suddenly hardened, and his eyes hardened, like a machine devoid of emotion, only able to see numbers.

"Liang Yutang, how many exes have you had?"

He turned around, put his hands behind his back, and asked with a sharp look in his eyes.

Why are you suddenly asking this?

Liang Yutang was taken aback. She felt her lips were dry and licked them.

"If Meng Yang counts, then it should be..." The girl started counting on her fingers as she counted.

Bian Yu watched as her fingers snapped one by one, growing increasingly annoyed, and finally interrupted her.

"Let me tell you—there aren't many that are presentable."

Bian Yu paused for a moment, then continued, "Or do you think that you don't need to gain experience, and that you can rely on me and Meng Yang to ensure the Liang family's continued prosperity for the next few decades?"

He could help her once out of gratitude.

Bian Yu: "What about next time?"

Oh, so it was intentional training, to help her become self-reliant, instead of just hiding under someone else's wing.

Suddenly, Liang Yutang's nose started to sting, which was quite embarrassing.

In the past, when the two were deeply in love, Bian Yu loved to lecture them all the time.

But at that time, she ignored it all and didn't take it to heart.

Now that the Liang family has been repeatedly turned away, Liang Yutang has realized that conquering the country is easy, all it takes is for the times to provide an opportunity.

However, maintaining a country is difficult.

As the first in line to inherit the Liang family fortune, if she doesn't have real skills, she will sooner or later become a sinner to the family.

Seeing that Liang Yutang remained silent, Bian Yu knew that she had given up.

It's always been like this; whenever she's in the wrong, she stays silent. She glances at him with a seemingly casual look, testing his limits.

As long as Bian Yu doesn't lose his temper, she'll act like nothing happened. Only when he gets angry will she back down to a certain extent.

Just like before, she secretly ran away from Nanyun back to Jingshi to visit Meng Yang.

Even though she knew perfectly well that the lie had probably been exposed, she not only didn't make amends, but also left him hanging...

"You really had a winning hand, but you played it terribly."

The man spoke with a double meaning, almost through gritted teeth.
