After rejecting my celebrity husband

Chapter 363: Chapter 364: War between Two Men

Leng Zimo spoke again, ”We...”

”We are just talking about work!” Luo Xiaoqian bent down to pick up the dropped room key from the floor, and dashed out from between the two men as if fleeing, ”Gentlemen, if there’s anything, we can talk about it tomorrow. Good night!”

She ran all the way to her own room door, swiped the card to open it, and without looking back, escaped inside.

”I won’t disturb President Leng’s rest anymore!” Jiao Yang retracted the hand he had against the door, and turned to leave.

”She is mine!” Leng Zimo declared sternly behind him.

Jiao Yang laughed lightly, turned his head to look at him inside the door, ”President Leng, now we live in a society that values freedom and human rights. Nobody belongs to anyone, everyone has the right to pursue their true love!”

”True love?” Leng Zimo scoffed. ”It seems President Jiao’s ’true loves’ are quite plentiful!”

As a formidable opponent in work, naturally, Leng Zimo had looked into him. Unlike Leng, women were never in short supply around Jiao Yang.

Jiao Yang spoke in a very calm tone, ”That has nothing to do with you.”

Leng Zimo coldly curved his lips upward, ”You are bound to lose!”

”President Leng, underestimating the enemy isn’t a good habit!” Jiao Yang’s lips also curled up in response.

”I never underestimate anyone. I just understand my woman and know what she really wants.”

”Are you sure that’s what she wants?” Jiao Yang shrugged. ”But I don’t think so.”

”That’s just what you think,” Leng Zimo said.

”So, you understand her very well?” Jiao Yang asked.

”Of course!” Leng Zimo answered.

Jiao Yang’s gaze fell on the sportswear in his hand. ”Do you know who bought me this outfit?”

”Of course I do!” Leng Zimo smiled, ”And that’s exactly why I need to take it back. After I return to Beijing, I’ll buy you a brand new set to replace it. Thank you for taking care of it these past few days. President Jiao, see you tomorrow!”

Bang!

He closed the door forcefully.

Outside, Jiao Yang raised his hand to rub his chin, glanced at Luo Xiaoqian’s room in the distance, smiled, and walked towards his own room.

Leng Zimo went back to the bed, placed the black sportswear on the pillow, lifted his hand to pinch the tag on the clothes and smiled somewhat helplessly.

Replacing old with new but forgetting to remove the tag on the clothes, who else but their family’s Little Fool would do something like this?

His smile had yet to fade when the landline on the table began to ring. Leng Zimo reached out to pick up the receiver.

”Zimo, I’m sorry!”

On the phone, Luo Xiaoqian’s voice was full of apology.

”Why apologize? It’s not your fault!” Leng Zimo glanced at the sportswear by the pillow. ”Besides, I just won a small battle and even captured a trophy.”

”A trophy?” Luo Xiaoqian was puzzled.

”The outfit you bought is now mine,” Leng Zimo said with a laugh.

”Are you sure it’s the one I bought?”

”It still has the tag on it, with a price label from Landmark Plaza of Central.”

”No way?” Luo Xiaoqian exclaimed in shock.

”Otherwise, why don’t you come and see?” he asked teasingly.

On the other end of the phone, Luo Xiaoqian heard a door opening and hurriedly covered the receiver with her hand, ”Yu Tong’s back, can’t talk anymore, I have to hang up, good night!”

After putting the receiver back on the landline, Leng Zimo slightly raised the corners of his lips helplessly.

He and her, Yu Tong had already known about it a long time ago, did this girl really think she could keep it a secret?

Yu Tong entered, spotting Luo Xiaoqian hastily sitting up straight, ”Why haven’t you slept yet?”

”It’s nothing, just... can’t fall asleep!” Luo Xiaoqian said evasively, ”How is Xiao Mei? Weren’t you supposed to be watching her?”
