Starting as the President of a Billionaire Group

Capítulo 1179: Chapter 1154: I Really Love You

Li Mei knew that Cao Yang’s current demeanor was a sign of anger, and who knows what he might do in a while.

She didn’t want to get involved because of Song Xiaoxiao, so she quickly said, “Xiaoxiao, Brother Cao means well; since we’re here, why not have some fun?”

“Xiaomei, let’s hurry back, we have exams tomorrow,” Song Xiaoxiao said anxiously.

She couldn’t understand why Li Mei liked to stay in places like this so much.

Cao Yang knew Song Xiaoxiao was a good girl, unlike Li Mei, who liked to hang out in bars and mess around with those men.

Getting Song Xiaoxiao to stay willingly was impossible, so he could only resort to deception.

He winked at Li Mei, signaling her to leave quickly.

Li Mei understood and, clutching her stomach, said to Song Xiaoxiao, “Okay, okay, wait for me a moment; I feel a bit of pain in my belly, I’ll go to the restroom and then we’ll leave.”

She was fine just now, but now Li Mei suddenly claimed her stomach hurt, which indeed seemed suspicious.

However, seeing Li Mei clutching her stomach, Song Xiaoxiao didn’t think much more.

After all, women have their uncomfortable days every month, and you can’t predict when that relative arrives.

This situation had happened to Song Xiaoxiao before.

“You go quickly; I’ll wait here for you,” Song Xiaoxiao said to Li Mei.

As she left, Li Mei said to Cao Yang, “Brother Cao, I’m leaving Xiaoxiao to you; please take good care of her.”

“Don’t worry, Meimei, I will definitely take good care of Xiaoxiao,” Cao Yang said with a smile.

Such a pretty girl in front of him, he surely would take good care of her.

Li Mei glanced at Song Xiaoxiao and then turned away with a sinister smile, thinking, “Xiaoxiao, don’t blame me; everyone looks out for themselves; you caught Brother Cao’s eye, and there’s nothing I can do.”

Watching Li Mei leave, Cao Yang smiled and said, “Xiaoxiao, why don’t we go to the private room, have a drink, and wait for Meimei to come back.”

He already planned in his mind that as long as he tricked Song Xiaoxiao into the private room, he could do whatever he wanted.

Cao Yang didn’t want to cause too much commotion, avoiding unnecessary trouble; otherwise, he would have someone pull Song Xiaoxiao directly into the private room.

“No need, I’ll just wait here; Meimei will be back soon,” Song Xiaoxiao rejected again.

Cao Yang knew Li Mei hadn’t gone to the restroom — she was just tricking Song Xiaoxiao, having left through the back door.

Even if Song Xiaoxiao waited until daylight, Li Mei wouldn’t return, but she had no idea about it.

Cao Yang looked at the girl before him, still deceived and unaware, and felt some pity; indeed, Song Xiaoxiao was very innocent as Li Mei described.

Facing a girl like this was something Cao Yang encountered for the first time; how could he easily let her go?

After waiting a little while longer without Li Mei showing up, Song Xiaoxiao frowned, muttering to herself, “What’s wrong with Xiaomei; why hasn’t she come out yet; could something have happened?”

Seeing this kind-hearted girl, Cao Yang couldn’t help but shake his head — Song Xiaoxiao was truly too naive, betrayed by Li Mei yet still worried about her safety.

“Brother Cao, can you tell me how to get to the restroom? I want to check on Xiaomei,” Song Xiaoxiao said, preparing to walk toward the restroom.

Ever since meeting Cao Yang, his gaze had been scanning her up and down, seemingly trying to see through her, which made Song Xiaoxiao very uncomfortable.

Cao Yang couldn’t bear to watch anymore; he didn’t want to let Song Xiaoxiao be treated like a fool, still waiting idiotically here.

.

“Xiaoxiao, stop waiting; Meimei isn’t coming back,” Cao Yang said frankly.

On hearing this, Song Xiaoxiao was first stunned, then came to her senses.

“What did you say?” she asked incredulously.

“I said you don’t need to wait anymore; Meimei won’t be coming back; she’s already left, leaving you to me,” Cao Yang repeated clearly.

Now Song Xiaoxiao understood everything was planned by Cao Yang and Li Mei.

“Who is she to me, and by what right does she leave me to you?” Song Xiaoxiao glared at Cao Yang and asked.

“Meimei broke a bottle of very expensive wine, which she couldn’t afford to repay, so she thought of this way,” Cao Yang explained.

“How much? Let me pay for it,” Song Xiaoxiao said, somewhat choking up.

Her family had money; paying for a bottle of wine wasn’t a difficult task for her.

Cao Yang waved a hand dismissively and said, “After seeing you, I realized money isn’t that important; I want you.”

He bluntly revealed his thoughts to Song Xiaoxiao.

Upon hearing Cao Yang’s words, Song Xiaoxiao’s face turned pale; she obviously knew what this meant.

Song Xiaoxiao’s heart already belonged to Ye Chen; how could she possibly let another man touch her?

“Brother Cao, as long as you let me go, I’ll pay you whatever amount,” Song Xiaoxiao begged.

As she spoke, she was doing something else — calling Ye Chen.

Song Xiaoxiao knew Cao Yang wouldn’t let her go, so she had to seek help from Ye Chen, hoping for a chance to escape.

“Xiaoxiao, how many times must I tell you; I don’t want money, I just want you,” Cao Yang said impatiently.

Having dropped Song Xiaoxiao off, Ye Chen went home and slept, mainly because today had been exhausting.

Suddenly, he was awoken by the phone ringing.

Looking at the time, it was already midnight; he wondered what the girl wanted calling him this late.

Ye Chen, still half-asleep, answered the phone, saying, “Xiaoxiao, is something wrong?”

He didn’t hear Song Xiaoxiao’s response but heard her pleading voice, and immediately became alert.

“Brother Cao, please let me go; I’m not the kind of girl you think I am; I already have a boyfriend.”

Ye Chen heard Song Xiaoxiao’s pleading and knew she must be in danger.

He quickly got up, dressed, ran out the door, got in his sports car, and headed to where Song Xiaoxiao was.

Ye Chen feared the women around him might get in trouble, so he had a tracking system installed in their phones; he knew Song Xiaoxiao’s location instantly.

Cao Yang was so focused on persuading Song Xiaoxiao to obediently accompany him that he didn’t notice this girl had already called Ye Chen for help.

“Xiaoxiao, I genuinely like you; I promise I’ll treat you well and not just play around like with other women,” Cao Yang vowed.

He was indeed sincere; from the first glance he had liked Song Xiaoxiao, and it was genuine from the heart.

“Brother Cao, I don’t like you; feelings can’t be forced; please let me go and I’ll be grateful,” Song Xiaoxiao pleaded desperately as she was dragged into the private room.

“I don’t want gratitude; today, I’m determined to have you. This is my bar; even if you scream your lungs out, it’s useless,” Cao Yang said angrily.
