Rolling love Chapter 1.3

Posted onFEBRUARY 3, 2017

Yan Liang chose to go home, rather than go to the hospital as she really wanted to avoid any family conflicts.

A ten hour flight where she spent most of her time to review the files, she was tired enough. Now after a comfortable bath, she was lying on the couch watching TV, finally feeling a little cozy.

Yan Liang was changing channels rapidly, when she stopped at a local station, saw the advertis.e.m.e.nt for a new product and then changed to the local news channel.

The anchor was saying “..has developed high-end skin care brands such as Xu’s dream, however in recent years their position is no longer the same. Now with the chairman Xu Jinfu suffering a stroke and admitted to the hospital, the company is in a difficult situation. Informed sources say Xu Jinfu has approached a headhunting company to look for appropriate management personnel. He intends to change the management to professional managers and break the usual family business model. Xu … … ”

Yan Liang stared at the TV with a frown. Suddenly she heard the sound of the door opening and she immediately changed to an entertainment channel.

Lazily lying on the sofa, she lifted her head to see a woman opening the door: “Mom.”

Yan Mu looked at Yan Liang lazing like this, immediately her face sank.

“Even Zhou Cheng knows enough to go to the hospital to visit your father, you skip, you return to home to hide here and watch these -” Yan Mu glanced at the chatter of the television program, “- you’re making a mess of things.”

Yan Liang simply turned off the TV, got up and put on her slippers, and poured a gla.s.s of water for her mother: “Aren’t you most annoyed to see the mother of Xu Ziqing? When I heard from Zhou Cheng that she and her mother were in the hospital, I thought since they are there, you will certainly not step into the hospital.”

“You do not know your father darling. I sent you to go abroad to study for an MBA degree so you can inherit the company, and now, with your dad’s stroke, the company is in this chaotic set and directly appointed Xu Ziqing in the management layer. That’s why I told you to return home immediately. In the present situation, it is likely that those who express filial piety, your dad is ready to help them.And you do not even go to the hospital to see your dad? When the company falls into the hands of Xu Ziqing and her mother, you will regret it.

“You are right! You have thought it out well!” Yan Liang, pushed her mother out of the bedroom. “Liang Yi made some stew soup, do you want your daughter to accompany you while you have some soup downstairs?”

“Don’t pretend you care about me; if you really don’t want to see me worry, you quickly get started with the company’s things, so people don’t think of me as a joke who did not fight that wild woman and let the illegitimate daughter take over.”How will I save face?”

“You tell me what I have to do, go to the head office, right?” Yan Liang said, finally getting a word in.

Finally, n.o.body had the cold soup, the soup was sent directly to the poor and they went to the hospital.

This was a premium ward; the corridor decoration was like a five-star hotel. As Yan Liang stepped out of the elevator, she saw Zhou Cheng leaning on the rails. She stepped forward and patted his shoulder.

Zhou Cheng raised his head, saw her, and was surprised: “Did you not say that today you won’t come to the hospital?”

Yan Liang could only reluctantly shrug: “Why are you outside in the corridor?”

“Father is talking to the head hunter company inside. He is interested in meeting with the professional managers, let us avoid.”

“For what role?”

Zhou Cheng secretly said: “Powerful role.”

Yan Liang thought back to the news she saw at home: professional managers, family business model to change … … all kinds of unfavorable news that she secretly speculated for a moment, before she calmly changed the topic: “Where is Xu Ziqing?”

“She is sending her mother to the car downstairs; she will come back in a little while.”

Seeing Yan Liang’s expression, he sang the old tune: “Yan Liang, do not target her, ok?”

Cheerfully regaining her composure, she said contemptuously: “Why do you all think I am against her, rather than she against me?”

Without waiting for him to say another word, Yan Liang took a U-turn and left.
She heard him call out to her, but she didnt stop.

Unfortunately, Yan Liang did not think she was going to hit the elevator just when Xu Ziqing was returning.

As the elevator doors opened, the two women were face to face, both surprised for a moment.

Xu Ziying was the first one to react.Stepping out of the elevator, she immediately looked up and down at Yan Liang: “How come you’re here? Willing to come back?”

“You are not qualified to speak to me in this tone.”

“Last year, you did not come home, and now that there’s a mess at home you have to come back immediately, it is hard not to think of you as taking advantage of the chaos selfishly.”
Yan Liang tried to move around her, but was stopped: “Why are you leaving now?”
“If you do not want me to slap you like I did last time, let me go now.”
Xu Ziqing smiled: “You can’t say I forgot, I’d really like to thank you for that slap, if not , how could I cry to father and get so many shares?
Yan Liang was unable to suppress her anger as her teeth clenched.

“You do not know how angry your mother was then. She was willing to let my mother in because of the agreement: I can not compete for shares with you, but you, with a slap you destroyed so many years of your mother’s effort. If I were her, I would be mad at you too. ”
Yan Liang laughed. Xu Ziying’s expression changed, Yan Liang’s laugh was almost domineering: “Do you not know, that a man’s child will always have a natural psychological advantage? He owes you so much, he cannot even legally acknowledge your mother. When you go home with your mother every year to visit relatives, are you not being pointed at? I absolutely agree about the monetary compensation. What did he feel for you, if not pity?”
Xu Ziqing eyes blazed with anger showing that Yan Liang’s words had hit their mark.
But in the next second, Yan Liang could not laugh anymore –

“Speaking of, I have something to tell you .Zhou Cheng- he proposed to me,”

At that moment, Yan Liang felt her hands turn cold.

Xu Ziqing haughtily said: “But you can rest a.s.sured, I will not promise him, of course, I will not accept him. This man hurt my sister’s heart so I strung him along for a long time, don’t you feel better? ”
Yan Liang finally did not hold back, the palm of your hand was raised.

Zhou Cheng is her Achilles heel … …

But this slap, ultimately failed to land on the face of innocent Xu Ziqing -Yan Liang’s wrist was grabbed. She was surprised to see the hand that grabbed her wrist.

Lean arms ,wearing a watch, she had a feeling of deja vu.

Yan Liang suddenly raised her head – her eyes landed on a pair of familiar eyes.

The man she met on the plane, the man who had a pair of memorable eyes.

Translator’s note: I realised that what I mentioned as Fu Jiang in Chapter 1.2 is actually Xu Ziqing, I have changed that. Apologies.
