Stop Messing Around, Mr Bo!-Chapter 2023

Chapter 2023: Perhaps the Next Set Is More Suitable

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Just by looking at the marks on the woman’s body, they could imagine how intense the battle had been.

It was hard not to blush.

Ye Qingqiu was beautiful and had been known as a beauty since she was young.

No one could compare to her arrogance. She had a personality that others found difficult to like and a temperament and charm that others could not envy.

Li Tingshen admitted that he had seen her at her prettiest.

However, the moment he looked up, his eyes narrowed uncontrollably.

This woman’s beauty was probably elastic.

Every time, she had the ability to break the highest understanding of beauty.

The photographer in the bridal shop held the camera and kept changing her posture to retain Ye Qingqiu’s appearance.

Ye Qingqiu was a little embarrassed by the ambiguous look on her face. She didn’t feel restrained in the past, but now, she felt a little nervous.

“How is it?”

Li Tingshen’s gaze swept across her body again. “She’s beautiful, but the next set might be more suitable.”

Did this sound like a subtle dissatisfaction?

The staff standing beside Ye Qingqiu hurriedly said, “Miss Ye’s figure is perfect. This wedding gown can showcase all her advantages…”

Li Tingshen’s gaze landed on Ye Qingqiu’s face. “You like it?”

Disappointment flashed across Ye Qingqiu’s eyes. “Of course I hope you like it too.”

Li Tingshen suddenly stood up and walked towards her.

Ye Qingqiu looked at him in confusion. Li Tingshen lifted the veil behind her and wrapped it around her shoulders. Then, he wrapped it around her waist and buttocks before tying a knot on her knee.

Then, she took a few steps back and sized it up again before nodding in satisfaction. “If that’s the case, this model is not impossible.”

Ye Qingqiu was speechless.

Only then did the staff understand why.

However, when she looked at Li Tingshen again, he looked even cuter.

Her jealousy and possessiveness were incredible.

“Then I might as well not have this.”

The only advantage of the wedding gown had been blocked. What was the point of choosing it?

Li Tingshen couldn’t wait.

“Then choose another one.”

Ye Qingqiu couldn’t even get angry. She could only close the door and enter the changing room.

Li Tingshen smiled and sat on the sofa again.

It took time to change into a wedding gown, but most of the staff were gathered here. Looking at Li Tingshen, they were also looking forward to Ye Qingqiu.

During this period, other staff members walked in and shouted to the manager, “Manager Zhao, the actors and actresses we’re working with are here to try on the gowns.”

“Coming right up.”

The woman who was called Manager Zhao responded and left in a hurry.

Ye Qingqiu chose a more conservative wedding dress. It was a long-sleeved lace gown with a small V-neck.

Unsurprisingly, Li Tingshen was very satisfied.

Ye Qingqiu was speechless.

This man was young, but his thoughts were at the level of an old cadre.

The photographer took a few more photos and even captured a few photos of Li Tingshen and Ye Qingqiu standing together.

It had taken Ye Qingqiu more than an hour to complete both sets. Not to mention whether Li Tingshen was impatient, she was so tired that she surrendered first.

The two of them walked out of the VIP fitting room. Li Tingshen went to drive while Ye Qingqiu communicated with the receptionist, “Leave me a copy of the photos you just took.”

“Okay, please leave your email.”

Ye Qingqiu wrote down her email.

“I used this in the beginning and this ending…”

The familiar voice made Ye Qingqiu frown slightly. When she turned to leave, Liang Xuer’s gaze had already landed on her.

His puzzled gaze darkened when he saw her face.

Ye Qingqiu didn’t intend to put on a show with her. She was about to leave when someone grabbed her arm.

With such force, she frowned.

Turning her head and seeing the flustered Liang Xuer, she could even tell that her voice was trembling. “What are you doing here?”

Ye Qingqiu lowered her gaze and glanced coldly at her tightly clenched arm. “Let go.”

Liang Xuer tightened her grip, but looking at Ye Qingqiu’s angry and impatient face, she let go and asked again, “What are you doing here?”

“Does it have anything to do with you?”

“Who are you accompanying to try on the wedding gown? Or are you…”

“Who do you think is worth me spending time with her to try on the wedding gown?”

Liang Xuer’s face paled. “It’s you…”

“Of course.”

Ye Qingqiu glanced at her coldly. “We’re both in Ping Cheng City. I understand that we meet often, but you’d better know what it means to avoid me. Even if you can’t do it, don’t take the initiative to appear in front of me. I’m restraining myself from touching you now, but it’s not like I won’t touch you. Do you understand?”

Liang Xuer’s face was pale. She had heard Ye Qingqiu’s words more than once, but it was not important to her now. Her mind was filled with the thought of Ye Qingqiu coming here to try on the wedding gown, which meant that she was getting married.

With whom?

Besides Li Tingshen, who else could Ye Qingqiu marry?

Ye Qingqiu rubbed her wrist and walked out of the bridal shop with a cold expression. Li Tingshen stopped the car at the entrance.

Liang Xuer chased after her and saw Ye Qingqiu getting into Li Tingshen’s car.

If not for the white pillar beside her, she might have collapsed to the ground.

“Xu’er, are you… alright?”

When the actor who came with her saw Liang Xuer’s abnormal appearance, he came over to ask. Liang Xuer’s nails gripped the pillar tightly, and her eyes were filled with panic.

But how could Aunt Lian agree to their marriage?

No, I can’t…

She watched the car disappear through the transparent glass door without looking away.

She bit her lips and stared blankly at the door, deep in thought.

*

On New Year’s Day, the Ye Corporation announced that Li Tingshen and Ye Qingqiu’s wedding would be on the 28th of July.

Although she was mentally prepared for this news, it still caused a stir in Ping Cheng City.

Lian Lili arrived at the Ye residence a few days later.

When Nian Gen and Ye Qingqiu came downstairs, they were disgusted.

Not only was Liang Xuer present, but she was also sitting with her.

Her face was pale and she didn’t look happy.

She always had a dead face and Ye Qingqiu didn’t give her much attention.

“Aunt Lian, long time no see.”

Lian Lili smiled faintly and said, “Long time no see. I’ve received a lot of gifts from you every holiday. There are also a lot of gifts this year. Thank you for your thoughtfulness.”

Ye Qingqiu sat beside Ye Jianyun and said, “Of course.”

“However, I rarely see you at home. You always ask someone to give me gifts. I’ve liked this ruby necklace for a long time, but I couldn’t find a way to buy it. I’ve mentioned it to Tingshen once or twice, but there was no result. I didn’t have much hope, but I didn’t expect you to buy it for me. I like it very much. Tingshen said that you’ve spent a lot of effort to buy it. You’re thoughtful.”

Ye Qingqiu was stunned for a moment before her gaze landed on Lian Lili’s neck. She was indeed holding a dazzling ruby necklace in her hand. One look and she could tell that it was expensive.

However, she didn’t know that Lian Lili liked it, so she had never bought it before, let alone giving it to her.

She had mentioned it to Li Tingshen?

So…

Did Li Tingshen buy it and give it to Lian Lili in her name to please her mother-in-law?

Her lips twitched. “It’s mainly because of Li Tingshen.”

Lian Lili smiled and shifted her gaze back to Ye Jianyun. “I didn’t expect us to become in-laws in the end. Jingyi’s son and your daughter… Your best brother and my best friend. It sounds good…”

When Lian Lili finished speaking, she laughed. Ye Qingqiu and Ye Jianyun couldn’t help but frown.

Lian Lili didn’t hide the sarcasm in her laughter. It sounded good, but judging from her appearance, it should be more ridiculous and appropriate.

Her words seemed to imply something.

Ye Jianyun’s face darkened slightly. “It’s all fate. I’m happy to see this happen.”

Lian Lili smiled and took a sip of tea to hide the smile on her face. “Yes, we’re even closer.”

“Oh, right.”

Lian Lili seemed to have thought of something. She put down her glass and said, “Xu’er is doing well in the entertainment industry now. Coincidentally, Tingshen is also in the industry now. He will help to take care of her in the future. You don’t have to worry about Xu’er. I see that Qingqiu doesn’t intend to manage the company in the future. It’s only right for Tingshen to suffer a little. However, I still hope that he can avoid unnecessary trouble in the future.”

The smile on Ye Qingqiu’s face deepened and turned colder.

In order to make it more convenient for Li Tingshen and the Ye family to take care of Liang Xuer, it was reasonable for Liang Xuer to sign a contract with Li Tingshen’s company in the future. Since she didn’t manage the company, she should interfere less and not cause trouble for Li Tingshen.

She had become so scheming.

“Aunt Lian, you must be joking. We naturally don’t have to worry about Miss Liang’s career. Even if she needs help in the future, the Ye family will naturally support her.”

I’m the one who married Li Tingshen, and Liang Xuer isn’t my daughter. She’s not the burden I brought into the Li family, so Li Tingshen doesn’t have the responsibility or obligation to help take care of her. As long as she doesn’t get married, the Ye family should worry about her for a day. There’s no need for others to take special care of her.”

The smile on Lian Lili’s face faded. “Someone else?”

“Isn’t she just an outsider to the Li family? I know that Aunt and you are good friends, but you just said that my mother is your best friend. Have you always treated me as your daughter?”

Lian Lili looked at Ye Qingqiu’s beautiful face and laughed in anger.

“I don’t treat you as an outsider.”

“I’m the one who doesn’t know what’s good for me. I’ve always felt that I’m an outsider. Fortunately, we won’t be outsiders in the future. I hope that you can bear with us in the future. For the sake of me, Li Tingshen, and the Li family, don’t let others affect the harmony of our family.”

As the saying goes, starting a family before starting a career. Only when the family is harmonious will it be the greatest support for Li Tingshen’s career. Don’t you think so?”

In other words, she didn’t want Li Tingshen to be troubled because of Liang Xuer. That would be “unnecessary trouble”.

Lian Lili looked at Ye Qingqiu, her gaze turning cold.

“The Ye Corporation will rely on Tingshen in the future. There’s no difference between the Ye family’s care and his.”

“That’s in the future. There are still many people in the Ye family who need to be taken care of.”

Ye Qingqiu smiled coldly and turned to look at Liang Xuer, who was silent.

“Liang Xuer indeed has to be taken care of in the future. Looks like Li Tingshen and I have to think of a suitable man to marry you in the future, okay?”

Liang Xuer’s face, which was already pale, instantly turned pale.

Did she want Li Tingshen to find a man for her?

This was worse than killing her.

Ye Qingqiu really knew how to stab someone in the heart.

“I don’t need anyone to worry about me. What happens to me in the future is my own business!”

“You don’t need anyone to worry about your own matters. It sounds like you have a backbone. However, can you really do it yourself? Liang Xuer, no one dares to deny that you’re from the Ye family. You should know your place. Don’t treat yourself as an outsider in front of others. If you have any grievances, come and discuss it with your family. Don’t cause trouble for others… If they don’t say trouble, don’t you think you’re causing trouble for others?”

Liang Xuer clasped her hands tightly, her face turning pale.

“When I really reach the Li family in the future, are you going to continue fighting with me because of Aunt Lian’s love for you? Although it’s not impossible, you’re the one who will make things difficult for Aunt Lian. You should be grateful that Aunt Lian dotes on you and cherish this relationship. Don’t waste other people’s good impression of you.”

Liang Xuer was the center of conflict between her and Li Tingshen and the entire Li family. It was rare for them to meet today. No matter how inappropriate her words were, she should make herself clear.

“However, I really can’t imagine what kind of difficult matter it is. You can’t solve it yourself, and neither can the Ye family. Yet, a woman like Auntie Lian who doesn’t care about worldly affairs can solve it.”

Liang Xuer couldn’t say a word. Even Lian Lili, who was beside her, had a new assessment of Liang Xuer because of Ye Qingqiu’s words.

Liang Xuer couldn’t win against Ye Qingqiu.

Every time, her words seemed to be the most convincing and sounded like the truth.

Every time, she felt like she was being seen through.

Ye Qingqiu had seen too many of her speechless and aggrieved expressions. She smiled lightly.

“You really have some backbone when you say that you want to rely on yourself.”

Liang Xuer lost control of her emotions. “Do you think you’re outstanding? What capabilities do you have? What right do you have to judge me?”

Her slightly sharp voice made everyone in the living room look at her.

Ye Qingqiu raised her eyebrows and slowly took a sip of water.

“With my status as the daughter of the Ye family in Ping Cheng City and my ability to take down Li Tingshen, I can give everything I have to the Ye family. What do you think?”

Liang Xuer clenched her fists tightly, and her face turned pale.

However, when she said that she had taken down Li Tingshen, she lost completely.

No one could not feel Liang Xuer’s awkwardness. Ye Qingqiu picked up her cup and sipped her tea leisurely. Her gentle smile made her look peaceful.

Lian Lili pursed her lips. Even she couldn’t refute her.

At such a young age, she was indeed eloquent.

Even when she appeared, she couldn’t even negotiate Xu’er’s contract. With just a few words, she was rendered speechless.

She understood that Tingshen really felt that Xu’er was troublesome.

If his intentions were true, then Xu’er was indeed troublesome.

This topic didn’t continue. Liang Xuer looked at Lian Lili many times, hoping that she could mention her contract again. In the end, other than meeting Ye Qingqiu’s eyes, she didn’t hear her mention anything else.

She bit her lips, feeling indignant.

After lunch, Liang Xuer left with Lian Lili.

Liang Xuer’s silence on the way made Lian Lili look at her.

“Think about it carefully. No matter what reason Ye Qingqiu has, it’s indeed because of her ability. She’s also a daughter of the Ye family, and the starting point is the same. Why don’t you find out the reason why Tingshen chose her in the end? Don’t tell me she used some tricks to get what she wants. If she didn’t use some tricks, would she have waited for the other party to deliver herself to her?”

“You don’t have to be so sad. Even if Tingshen marries her, it won’t last long. He just wants the Ye Corporation. It’s normal for a man to be ambitious.”

She was shocked when Li Tingshen gave her this reason.

But she was skeptical.

But so what?

Would the damage be doubled if she were to abandon him after marriage?

Mi Rao had made her suffer for the rest of her life. Even if she died, she wanted her daughter to seduce her son.

No matter who received the punishment, it would be a form of comfort and satisfying revenge for her.

Why? Why did she have so much love?

The love that she couldn’t get was Mi Rao’s. The love that she had taken a step back to accept wanted to enjoy the feeling of being loved, but in the end, it was a lie made up by her.

What was hers shouldn’t be hers. It was all hers.

It was sad that she couldn’t have it, but she was deceived. It was even more ridiculous.

Her life had become a joke because of her.

Now, even her daughter was living a smooth-sailing life that made people envious.

It was too disgusting.

Now, it was really karma.

Liang Xuer’s eyes turned red. “So Brother Tingshen doesn’t love Ye Qingqiu? If he really gets the Ye Corporation, will he really abandon Ye Qingqiu? Auntie Lian, is this true? Can he really do it? There should be many ways to get the Ye Corporation. I also have a portion of the Ye Corporation’s shares. Why didn’t he choose me to fulfill his wish? Instead, he chose Ye Qingqiu?”

Lian Lili’s face darkened. “The Ye Corporation is in Ye Jianyun’s hands. Do you think Ye Jianyun will choose to help you or her?”

Liang Xuer paused. That was indeed a reasonable reason.

However, if Ye Jianyun was no longer around and Ye Qingqiu wasn’t with Li Tingshen, with Li Tingshen’s current reputation in the Ye Corporation, the sovereignty of the Ye Corporation would still be his.

Why did she have to get involved with Ye Qingqiu?

She didn’t say anything else as the panic in her heart intensified.

The more logical and detailed the answer, the more desperate and flustered she felt.

Although Lian Lili didn’t receive a response from Liang Xuer, her words made her heart sink.

Liang Xuer’s words made sense.

Around New Year’s Day, the awards ceremony would be held.

As expected, the competition won all the major awards.

Liang Xuer nominated for the Best Supporting Actress and danced as a guest at the award ceremony.

The popularity increased again.
