Chapter 513: No Compromise

Book:The Selfish CEO Published:2024-6-2

He actually felt a little lost when he was cut loose by her. Was he a self-mutilator?
“He is not lying to you, but the little bean has been transferred by me.”
“You!” Ziggy snapped out of it, “You knew I was coming, so both doors were open?”
“It’s a pity that you’re one step late again.” He said words of pity, but there was absolutely no trace of regret in his expression.
The tip of Zige’s nose was sore, and after that great surprise, a great disappointment came without a roof, almost making her despair.
She grabbed Lan Yu Feng’s sleeve with a shaking hand and leaned helplessly against the wall, looking at him with tearful eyes, “Why in the world are you pushing me so hard? I promise you that I won’t say those excessive words to Little Douzi, and I won’t take him away privately … You let me see him, okay?”
She was powerless and could only take a step back.
However, as if he had made up his mind, he was completely unmoved and simply gave her two words, “No good.”
“You!” Zige was furious and reached out to push him, choking and muttering, “What do you want? I just want to see the child, can’t I?”
“I thought I made it clear!” Lan Yu Feng’s upright body didn’t let her shake the slightest bit. He pressed a step closer, one hand propped on his side, one hand clasping her stubborn lower jaw, making her meet his eyes, “Meng Zige, I’ll say it again, I want you! Do you hear me clearly?”
As if he was afraid that she wouldn’t be able to hear him clearly, the three words ‘I want you’, he bit down extremely hard, word by word, extremely clear.
Ziggy shuddered, her heart fluttering in horror.
Those eyes of his, gazing intently at her, were like the deep sea.
As calm as it clearly seemed, violent emotions churned beneath the surface of the sea.
Breaths stuttered, hands gripped tighter.
At the moment, even she herself was in disarray, unable to see him clearly, and even more confused about her own heart at this moment.
It was a long time before she found her voice, “What makes you … you want me?”
She bit her lip stubbornly, “I won’t sell myself out. No matter how much you degrade me, I will not compromise!”
This woman, she was so stubborn! So stubborn that it gave him the urge to punch someone.
“Do you hate staying with me that much?!” He questioned in a cold voice, holding back his anger.
“Yes, it’s annoying!” As if trying to convince her heart, she raised her voice, but her eyes inexplicably drifted, “Who would want to stay by your side when you’re such a shifty, self-righteous, selfish person? Not only do I hate staying by your side, but I hate you as a person!”
As the words fell, it only felt as if the temperature around him had dropped a few degrees.
Ziggy was startled.
Only Lan Yu Feng’s icy cold words could be heard falling on his ears.
“Very well! In that case, now get the hell out of here!” He also looked as if a layer of frost had covered his features as he took a step out and pulled the door open. His eyes swept towards her, “In the future, don’t appear in front of me again!”
Every word, like a stone, was cold, hard, and slammed into Zi Ge’s heart one by one. Looking at his determined look, her heart shrunk, a little stifled pain.
Wanted to turn around and leave right away, but …
Instead, her legs felt like lead, making it difficult for her to move an inch.
The two people confronted each other like this, and the air was so frozen that it could suffocate a person. Just at this time, Zi Ge’s cell phone rang at first, instantly breaking such an atmosphere.
Feeling out her cell phone, she eased her expression a bit when she saw the four big words ‘first love’. On one side, someone’s face was even more chilled to the bone.
“Aren’t you still filming? Why are you still calling me?”
That’s good!
Talking to Ke Hengjun, her tone was so gentle that it was almost mushy.
“Rest now, I’m worried about you. Did you find the baby? Stay there, I’ll pick you up as soon as I finish this one.”
“No, I’ll leave right away and meet you on the set.” Zi Ge didn’t look at Lan Yu Feng, but she felt that the line of sight was sharp as a nail on her back, making her uncomfortable.
Mind, a mess. Inexplicably, it was as if she had done something wrong. Only to say goodbye in a haphazard manner, “I won’t talk to you for now, we’ll talk more about it later when we meet.”
Without waiting for Ke Hengjun to say anything over there, she put her cell phone away. Glancing at Lan Yu Feng, she propped her hand against the wall and pursed her lips, “Even if I leave today, I’ll still come next time. Child, I won’t give up!”
Lan Yu Feng’s long arms closed around her waist. His deep eyes, looking at her, were all strong warnings, “Meng Zige, don’t blame me for not reminding you that if you dare to let Ke Hengjun touch you again, you won’t want to see Little Douzi again in this life!”
Ziggy stared at him with both eyes, seemingly a little puzzled by his words.
He bent his head, opened his lips, and bit her right on the lips with hatred.
“What are you doing?” As soon as he backed away, Zige reached up and covered her mouth. There, it was hot, hot, hot, like it was on fire.
Even the heart, it was rolling.
“Better keep that in mind!”
Meng Zige, don’t blame me for not reminding you if you dare to let Ke Hengjun touch you again, you’ll never see Little Douzi again in your life!
As Zige walked out of the villa, her mind was spinning with Lan Yu Feng’s words, and she only felt a mess in her heart. What did he, in the end, mean?
Was it her own illusion? Why did she feel as if he really cared about her being with Ko Hang-jun?
At this time of day, the set was already quiet. Ke Hengjun was working on a scene with Su Xi, and when he saw Zi Ge appear, he dropped the script in his hand and took a few steps towards her, “It’s so late, don’t hang out alone! Where’s the child?”
At the mention of the child, Zige’s eyes darkened slightly. Shaking her head, “He shifted early.”
“Old fox!” Ke Hengjun cursed and looked at Zige’s lost look, “Don’t worry, I’ll think of something. It wasn’t hard to find the first time, and it won’t be hard to find it again.”
Zi Ge couldn’t lift her spirits at all. In fact, it was just as Ke Hengjun said, they could find it a second time, but Lan Yu Feng could also shift it a second time.
“It’s okay, I’m not in a hurry. You go ahead and do the scene, I’ll go help Minnie.” Zige changed the topic without saying much and walked towards Xiao Min.
Up and down the qu group, once again entered a state of trepidation. The secretary had one head and two heads, and the people in each department were also taut, waiting to be summoned at any time. No one knows if the next one to get shot will be themselves.
“Assistant Left, what’s wrong with the president this time?” The secretary dragged Yan Nan to complain, “In previous years, the president was only out of sorts one day a year, why do you feel that the president has been out of sorts more and more often lately?”
Yan Nan also had a helpless look on his face, “Everyone bear with it, this extraordinary period should soon pass. As long as everything on hand is as perfect as possible, so that the president is impeccable, there will be nothing for you all.”
Although the words were said so, Yan Nan knew that it was almost impossible to make the president not picky. All along, the president’s demands had been strict, and lately, they had even reached a perverted point.
Looking at the tightly closed door of the president’s room and sympathizing with the head of the finance department inside who was currently undergoing training at the moment, Yan Nan shook his head repeatedly.
It is true to say that this thing called love hurts people, but now this is hurting people and themselves, so why the pain?
The president’s cell phone, at first, rang. Yan Nan swept his eyes and immediately picked it up.
Lan Yu Feng dumped the report on the table and cursed twice. The door to his office was knocked abruptly, and his face grew more and more somber, “What is it?”
“President, a call for you.” Yan Nan pushed the door in and brought the cell phone over.
Sweeping a glance, Lan Yu Feng’s face slightly eased. Waving his hand while letting the people from the finance department exit, he pressed his cell phone to his ear, “Auntie, you …”
“Yu Feng, help …” On the other end of the phone, Mo Simin’s cry for help was breathless, as if she would faint at any time.
His eyebrows seized up at once, Lan Yu Feng quickly gestured towards Yan Nan, who understood and immediately handed over the car keys and cane.
“Auntie, take your time, what’s wrong?” He asked as he walked.
“There is a gas leak at home … the door … won’t open …” Finished the last sentence, the phone thumped and There was no more sound.
“Auntie? Auntie!” Lan Yu Feng called out twice in a row, and there was just silence over there in response to him.
His heart sank, and he became quicker on his feet for a moment, regardless of the pain in his knees. I’m afraid I’ve fainted!
After realizing that her cell phone automatically shut off, Zige was busy plugging in the charger and turning it on. Many messages scurried in, she thought it must be Ke Hengjun’s work messages, but when she took a look at the display numbers of those missed calls, a bad premonition suddenly rose in her heart.
Five missed calls, all from my mother.
Not daring to be slow, she hurriedly grabbed the phone and dialed it. However, the other side was never able to connect. She tried again and again, and again and again, the result was the same.
Her heart became more and more chaotic, she twisted her cell phone and looked at Ke Hengjun who was filming, finally she couldn’t stay for a moment. Hurriedly said to Xiao Min, and did not wait for Xiao Min to respond, she grabbed her jacket, and rushed out of the set to go.
Never … never be okay!
Lan Yu Feng’s car roared along. The original journey of several tens of minutes was madly cut in half by him. When he arrived at Meng’s house, sure enough, the entire home was locked to death.
The doors and windows were closed and no movement could be heard. He tried banging on the door, but this was not enough to shake the heavy door at all. With a low curse, he didn’t dare to be slow and immediately knocked on the doors of the surrounding neighbors. Once they heard him say that Meng’s mother was trapped inside the door, the people inside hurriedly let Lan Yu Feng in.
Lan Yu Feng walked directly onto the terrace in big strides. His legs and feet were weak, and it was obviously difficult for him to leap over the terrace. But at this dangerous time, turning to outsiders, it was obvious that the neighbors were not willing to take the risk either. And the people from the fire department hadn’t arrived yet, so if they continued to waste time, Meng’s mother might actually lose her life.
In his mind, almost immediately, Zi Ge’s pained look sprang up, and without allowing Lan Yu Feng to think about it, he threw his cane and climbed onto the terrace.
“Can you get over there with your bad leg?” The neighbor asked anyway.
“I’ll try.” Lan Yu Feng climbed the railing of the terrace with both hands and looked downward. The floor wasn’t high, but it wasn’t low either, so falling down like this would also shatter his body. However, at this moment, there was no other way.
Sedate yourself, count the distance with precision, bear the pain in your knees, and leap.
“Ah …” The neighbor sucked in his breath backwards, and just watched as that figure had already leapt up to the terrace over there in a graceful manner. His right leg still inevitably hit the iron railing, and the piercing pain made him wrinkle his eyebrows, a layer of cold sweat already surfacing on his brow.
But the next moment …
Through the locked glass door of the terrace, see the situation inside, and then calm and collected Lan Yu Feng also can not help but run up a chill, from the soles of the feet straight to the top of the head.
Inside, not only was there a gas leak, but also, a lighter had ignited a flame that was burning right off the dining room table.
I’m afraid, it’s going to explode soon!
With this thought, it was too late to think too much, he picked up a chair on the side and slammed it hard on the thick glass door. The force was so strong that after a loud ‘bang’, the glass door ‘clattered’ and shattered all over the place.
