When his wicked ex-girlfriend beckoned him, CEO Li lost control!

Li Chengyuan slowly sipped his wine, then sneered, "What does this have to do with me? If you want to mind your own business, go ahead and do it."

"How could I possibly step in? It would hurt Miss Lin's pride."

Upon hearing this, Bai Muqing smiled with satisfaction. How could she possibly care about Lin Zhixia? As long as A Yuan didn't interfere, that was enough.

As a result of Zhou Wanrong and others' involvement, more and more people gathered around to watch the spectacle.

Most of them were people Lin Zhixia knew before. They saw the reports online. That's how people are. When she was in a high position, no one could touch her, and no one could do anything to her.

Things are different now. Now we've fallen from heaven to hell, and anyone can come and criticize us.

"Miss Lin, what do you do for a living? Are you too embarrassed to say? You can't possibly be doing something shameful, can you?"

"Lin Zhixia is now working as a nanny for the Li family."

Bai Qingruan then came over and answered for her.

"Pfft, she's a nanny! Our nannies are all in their fifties or sixties, I've never seen one this young before."

"It's true what they say, fortunes change every thirty years. Before, she was always being served by others, but now she has to serve others. I wonder if Miss Lin can handle it."

Lin Zhixia pursed her lips tightly. The little master in her arms was getting restless, so she gently patted his back to soothe him.

"Young master, be good, let's go for a walk, don't cry."

She tried to leave the crowd while holding the young master, but was stopped by Zhou Wanrong and a few others.

"Lin Zhixia, where are you going? It's not easy to get together with us old acquaintances, why aren't you saying anything?"

As she spoke, Zhou Wanrong went up and shoved Lin Zhixia. Lin Zhixia staggered a couple of steps, but because she was holding the young master, she couldn't free her hands, otherwise she would have slapped her in the morning.

Seeing this, Bai Qingruan suppressed her laughter and gestured with her chin towards the disheveled Lin Zhixia.

"Xiao Lin, I think you should apologize to Miss Zhou. You must have been too arrogant and domineering before, which offended her."

Zhou Wanrong stared smugly at Lin Zhixia, swirling a glass of champagne in her hand, her eyes filled with disdain.

"That's right, Lin Zhixia, weren't you so arrogant in front of us before? I still remember your haughty attitude. How about this, you just kneel down in front of me and I'll let you pass."

Lin Zhixia bit her lip tightly, her gaze towards Zhou Wanrong as cold as an ice cellar.

"You think you're worthy to make me kneel before you?"

Little did she know that it was precisely this look in her eyes that completely enraged Zhou Wanrong.

"That look in your eyes! Do you think you're still Miss Lin now? I used to find that look disgusting. Who are you trying to impress with that haughty attitude!"

As she spoke, Zhou Wanrong gritted her teeth and raised her hand, intending to slap Lin Zhixia.

Caught off guard, Lin Zhixia had no time to react and could only tightly protect the young master in her arms. The young master seemed to sense something and burst into tears at that moment.

Before Zhou Wanrong's slap could land, she was slammed hard in the back. She was wearing high heels, which made walking difficult, let alone being hit like that. She immediately lost her balance, and the champagne glass in her hand flew out of her hand, spilling the wine onto the girl in front of her who had been insulting Lin Zhixia with her.

"Ah..." the girl screamed sharply.

Zhou Wanrong fared even worse. She stumbled and tried to steady herself by relying on the people around her, but they all avoided her like the plague. In the end, Zhou Wanrong fell flat on her face.

Sorry, I wasn't paying much attention.

A casual male voice suddenly rang out from the crowd.

The crowd began whispering among themselves: "Isn't that Young Master Li?"

"What is he doing? Could he be trying to help Lin Zhixia?"

"How could that be? She deceived CEO Li so badly, how could I possibly help her?"

Lin Zhixia, holding the young master in her arms, felt her heart race the moment she saw Li Chengyuan walking towards her.

The overhead light shone on him, highlighting his sharp black handmade suit, which accentuated his broad shoulders and narrow waist. His posture was upright, like a sculpted sculpture, with distinct and sharp facial features. Yet, his eyes held unfathomable emotions, like a bottomless whirlpool.

He exuded an aura that kept strangers at bay. Li Chengyuan walked up to Lin Zhixia, while Bai Qingruan beside him looked extremely pale, her fingers clenched tightly.

Could it be that her brother-in-law felt sorry for Lin Zhixia and wanted to help her?

Lin Zhixia stood rooted to the spot, her feet feeling like they were made of lead, unable to move an inch. When their eyes met, she stared straight into his unfathomable, dark eyes, her face stiffening.

he is……

Before Lin Zhixia could even speculate, Li Chengyuan's voice was low and cold, devoid of any warmth.

"Lin Zhixia, I brought you here so you could take good care of the young master, not so you could hang out with your old friends. Don't you understand your place?"

Lin Zhixia's pupils trembled slightly, and she felt her heart suddenly tighten. She unconsciously tightened her grip on the young master, and then lowered her head.

"Yes, I'll take the young master out for some fresh air now."

She carried the young master and walked quickly past Li Chengyuan.

With one hand in his pocket, Li Chengyuan turned around, walked up to Zhou Wanrong, and extended his hand to her.

"I'm so sorry, I bumped into you just now."

Zhou Wanrong was extremely embarrassed, but she didn't expect Li Chengyuan to speak to her in such a gentle voice. Although she had heard that the second young master of the Li family had a fiancée, there was still no news of their marriage.

Having been deceived by Lin Zhixia for so long, he must be feeling very upset and needs someone to confide in.

Zhou Wanrong immediately composed herself, her eyes filled with shyness as she looked at Li Chengyuan. She reached out and touched her hair, her voice completely different from her previous sharp tone, displaying the bashful demeanor of a young girl.

"It's alright, Mr. Li. I just lost my balance. Thank you for your help."

Just as Zhou Wanrong placed her hand on Li Chengyuan's palm, he tightened his grip slightly, and Zhou Wanrong was about to be pulled up by Li Chengyuan when suddenly the man loosened his grip.

Zhou Wanrong was thrown down hard again.

"what……"

This fall was even harder than the last one; her entire face was pressed against the ground, right where she had just spilled champagne.

He was in a complete mess.

Those around couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Zhou Wanrong was embarrassed by the laughter, feeling both angry and annoyed, but she couldn't show it. She suppressed her anger and looked at Li Chengyuan with a pitiful expression.

"Young Master Li, why didn't you hold on tighter to her?"

"Sorry, my hand slipped. You'd better get up yourself." Li Chengyuan curled his lips into a wicked smile, but his sinister eyes revealed disdain.

The moment Li Chengyuan turned his head to take the wet wipes from Ding Fan, his expression turned completely cold. Zhou Wanrong saw him wiping something dirty, her eyes full of disgust.

Zhou Wanrong suddenly realized that Li Chengyuan didn't want to pull her up at all; he was insulting her!
