Chapter 54: You won't have any designs on me, will you?

  Zhang Sen was called away by Lü Jiangnan not long after, and Ma Pei also received a call from Wang Yang, saying that he had an urgent matter to discuss with him. He had no choice but to rush to the tea house where she would meet him.

  As soon as they sat down, Wang Yang eagerly told him the truth about Jiang Huai's son running away, and Ma Pei was speechless.

  Wang Yang said: "Pei Shao, next Monday is the bidding meeting for 'Tang Wan Square', do you think General Manager Jiang will attend?"

  Ma Pei thought for a moment, then said very affirmatively: "Of course! General Manager Jiang is not the kind of person who mixes public and private matters. He won't let his personal affairs affect his work. This is also one of the main reasons why he has been sitting in the number one position in G City's real estate industry for so long, let alone now with Li Wanqing helping him."

  "Oh?" Wang Yang asked curiously, "That Li Yuqing, is she very capable and impressive? Do you think highly of her?"

  "Our group company's Singapore branch sent me Li Yuqing's information, and this Li Yuqing is not a simple person. She holds an MBA in Business Administration from Harvard University in the United States and a Practicing Certificate in Real Estate Appraisal in the United States. Starting from high school, she would intern at her family's company during every holiday. Two years ago, she took over one of the subsidiaries under her family's banner, and now she is a legendary figure in Singapore's real estate industry." Ma Pei said with admiration.

  "Compared to someone who started attending board meetings at the age of 10 and began asking college students majoring in business administration to tutor them, almost synchronizing their learning with theirs at the age of 12, her time spent soaking up the business world isn't even equivalent to that person's high school level?" Wang Yang said with a teasing smile.

  Ma Pei-yue looked at her in surprise: "Your understanding of me is really not ordinary, even these almost forgotten past events are known to you?"

  Wang Yang's face suddenly turned red, realizing his own slip of the tongue, and he hastily covered it up with a smile: "I've said it before, that time when I interviewed you, in order to find a new highlight for my report, I investigated almost all your stories, basically from the time you were in kindergarten, everything was within my investigation scope."

  "Oh? So that's it, I was wondering how you knew so much about my affairs. By the way, when will this exclusive interview be published? I want to see what your highlights are." Ma Pei Le asked with a nod.

  "Next month's issue, cover story interview. As for the highlight, actually there isn't much, I can tell you now, it's just some of your daily trivial matters. In my article, you're not a business tycoon, but a sentimental and emotional man, a lovesick fool who's been hurt by love. How about that, are you satisfied?" Wang Yang asked jokingly.

  Ma Pei felt a pang in his heart, and Mei Yu's image appeared clearly in his mind again. He shook his head, forcing himself to shake off the sudden thought, and smiled at Wang Yang: "I say Xuan Xuan, why are you so interested in my emotional life? You won't have any ulterior motives towards me, will you?"

  As soon as this was said, Wang Yang's face turned red again, and Ma Pei was also shocked in his heart: How could he be so relaxed in front of a woman? So unorthodox? Except for Mei Yu, when did he ever make such jokes with a woman?

  This vast expanse, from the first day of acquaintance, when drinking tea in "Qinyuan Spring", had a feeling of déjà vu towards her. Her gaze at me was filled with tenderness, as if I were an old friend she had known for a long time. However, strangely, the affection she showed me did not evoke the same disgust and revulsion as it did with other women. On the contrary, there was a warm and fuzzy feeling, why?

  The second time I met her was a few days ago at the cocktail party held by the "Tang Wan" organizing committee at the Lijing Hotel. As soon as I saw her that day, I felt an inexplicable joy in my heart that I didn't want to admit. Under the influence of this feeling, I told her many heartfelt words, including things about the Mei Yu family that I avoided talking about with others, and my suspicions about Senkawa. Why was it? Or, what's wrong with me? How could I have such strong trust in a woman I didn't know well?

  Ma Pei couldn't help but shake his head in his heart, bewildered by his own inexplicable confusion.

  Seeing Ma Pei's bewildered expression, Wang Yang roughly knew what he was thinking about, and his heart also stirred up like a stormy sea.

  At first, Wang Yang had to work very hard to investigate some things he wanted to know about Ma Pei. As he gained a deeper understanding of Ma Pei, his mood became increasingly heavy.

  She seemed to see the Ma Pei who was frantically searching for her after the rain, and also saw the Ma Pei who was helpless in the dark night. Thinking of him suffering from such emotional torture, he still had to take care of such a large group company, Wang Yang felt that his heart would be broken into pieces for him.
