Chapter 211: Chapter 204: Then Keep Kneeling and Don’t Get Up!It was exactly the after-work rush hour, and near the Wanyan Company Building, there were crowds of professional men and women commuting. Many noticed the suit-clad, flower-bearing Young Master Liu, Liu Penti. "Look, isn’t that the Liu Group’s Young Master Liu?" "Wow, he’s so handsome!" "Don’t get starry-eyed; he’s here for the Goddess Li from Wanyan Company. He has been waiting here every day for the last week, either sending flowers or gifts, just begging for a chance to have dinner with the goddess." "With Wanyan Company’s market value close to ten billion, would Goddess Li even care for the things he’s giving? She can afford them herself!" "You’re really out of the loop! Girls like that kind of romance, the feeling of being adored and pursued by everyone. I bet that Young Master Liu will successfully win over Goddess Li!" Sёarᴄh the ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "I wouldn’t be so sure, Goddess Li has never shown any particular intimate gestures towards any man. Some even speculate that she’s a lesbian." A number of professional men and women passing by underneath the building were pointing at the handsome and sunny Liu Penti. Liu Penti, with a bright smile, stood under the building like a statue, appearing the epitome of a lovestruck man. Bai Yan watched Liu Penti with cold eyes, he alone knew of Liu Penti’s identity as an Abnormal and that he was also one of the fanatical pursuers of Abnormal People Organization member Yan Qing. Lovestruck man? Ha, beneath the so-called devoted façade lies the true nature of a playboy who toys with women! A number of curious professional women and men stayed behind; they wanted to see whether Goddess Li would agree to Liu Penti’s pursuit today, as among the many suitors vying for Li Xiaoman in HZ city, Liu Penti was indeed one of the most competitive. Li Xiaoman, under the spotlight, descended from the Wanyan Company Building. She was wearing a grey and white lace dress today, which seemed less formal than a business suit, but coupled with a matching short coat, made her appear even more lively and adorable, yet still retaining elegance and dignity. Li Xiaoman walked at the forefront of the senior Wanyan Company executives. Holding a small portfolio, she was still instructing employees about something even after work hours, her stunningly beautiful face bearing a serious expression. As the days went by with Li Xiaoman in power at Wanyan, the mature and charming feminine air about her only became more pronounced. Charming as the spring’s peach blossoms, pure as the autumn’s chrysanthemums – to describe Li Xiaoman at this moment couldn’t be more apt. "Xiao Man!" The beauty had emerged! Liu Penti’s eyes brightened, and he hastily walked up with the flowers in hand. Several of Li Xiaoman’s fellow company executives impassively stepped in front of her, their expressions tinged with a trace of vigilance as they looked at Liu Penti. These people had long been loyal Demon Servants of Bai Yan, and in their eyes, Li Xiaoman was undoubtedly their master Bai Yan’s Forbidden Fruit; it was their duty to protect her, preventing other men from getting close. Liu Penti, stopped by these people, did not show the slightest embarrassment. As the Young Master of the Liu Family Martial Arts, these mere mortals naturally didn’t have the strength to stop him. With a subtle movement, Liu Penti easily slipped past the obstructing Wanyan Company executives and approached Li Xiaoman with a smile. "Xiao Man, you finally came. I’ve been waiting for a long time," said Liu Penti with a face full of deep affection, looking at Li Xiaoman with a look that made many onlookers from the surrounding professional women scream. Liu Penti was handsome with a profound background indeed possessed the capital to drive women crazy. But Li Xiaoman was not these ordinary women; she frowned slightly. Although she felt disgusted by Liu Penti’s pretense of affection, she still asked politely with a smile, "Mr. Liu, what are you waiting for me for?" "Xiao Man, why be so distant with me? Just call me Pengtian!" said Liu Penti with a smile. Liu Penti suddenly knelt on one knee, and under the astonished gaze of the passersby, he gazed deeply at Li Xiaoman: "Xiao Man, from the very first moment I saw you, I fell in love with you! You might not believe it, but in every day and night, I’ve been earnestly longing for your voice and face..." "You..." Li Xiaoman was stunned. Was Liu Penti confessing his love? Pursuing her for a week and confessing in public? Isn’t this too fast? The passersby were all shocked: "My gosh, Young Master Liu is actually publicly confessing to Goddess Li today!" "I’m so envious of Li Xiaoman. If it were me being confessed to by Young Master Liu, that’d be so great~ He’s so handsome, and rich too~" "Do you guys think Goddess Li will agree to him?" "She will! She definitely will. The power of the Liu Family enterprise far exceeds that of Wanyan Company. She wouldn’t let go of such a golden bachelor!" However, contrary to what everyone expected, Li Xiaoman replied to Liu Pengtian with an apologetic face, "Mr. Liu, thank you for your affection, but I have things to attend to. Could you please stand up?" Until now, Li Xiaoman has been trying hard to maintain the polite demeanor befitting the person in power at Wanyan Company. Although she loathed Liu Pengtian, she didn’t want to embarrass him in public. After all, considering her identity, she represented the face of Wanyan Company, and against the heir of the Liu Group, she had to give some face. It was this very aspect of Li Xiaoman that Liu Pengtian had seized upon, which is why he chose to make his public confession to Li Xiaoman today. "Xiao Man, do you still not understand my heart? Until when will you keep rejecting me!" Liu Pengtian’s expression grew even more heartfelt. Still on one knee, he drew a huge diamond ring from his pocket, which reflected a dazzling light in the sunlight, causing the female onlookers by the road to shriek. "Ah!! Such a huge diamond ring!" "Young Master Liu is serious this time!" Passersby were envious beyond words. Just by looking at the ring, you could tell it was worth a fortune! "I know that your coldness these past days was just to test me. This is a diamond ring worth 36 million, representing my true heart for you!" Liu Pengtian gazed deeply into Li Xiaoman’s eyes: "The craziest thing I’ve done in my life is to fall in love with you, really! Xiao Man, marry me, allow me to cherish you for a lifetime!" A public confession! The height of romance! These sweet nothings from Young Master Liu were just too perfect! He’s clearly an old hand at the game, with just a sentence he’s made all the watching women’s hearts flutter! Everyone was shocked! However, nobody saw the flash of smugness in Liu Pengtian’s eyes. He wanted to confess to Li Xiaoman in such a public setting; it was his ultimatum! If Li Xiaoman didn’t agree, she would undoubtedly offend the Liu Group; if Li Xiaoman did agree, once the Liu Group obtained the secret of Wanyan’s Medicine No.1 from her, Liu Pengtian, having had his fill, would naturally ditch her. Yes, Liu Pengtian covets not only Li Xiaoman’s beauty but even more so the pharmaceutical secrets of Wanyan Company! Li Xiaoman was in a tough spot. She wanted to refuse Liu Pengtian but couldn’t find the right words at the moment. It just so happened that Liu Pengtian had picked the perfect timing for his confession, obviously leveraging his position to force her into submission! "Click!" Bai Yan lit a cigarette and emotionlessly pushed through the crowd. Setting your sights on my woman? It seems the lesson I taught you last time wasn’t enough to make you remember, Young Master Liu! Among the crowd. Confronted with the brilliant diamond ring, Li Xiaoman’s eyebrows slightly knitted. She stepped back subtly, "Mr. Liu, I... I have a boyfriend now, I’m sorry!" "Xiao Man! Stop testing me. I know you don’t have a boyfriend!" Liu Pengtian panicked. He had bought the ring today and had come to confess with a guaranteed victory in mind. If this woman slipped away from him now, he might not find another opportunity so easily next time. Liu Pengtian quickly reached out to grab Li Xiaoman’s delicate hand, as his voice carried a threatening note, "Li Xiaoman, if you don’t agree to me, I will kneel here and not stand up!" Just as people were sighing over Liu Pengtian’s devoted affection, and just as Liu Pengtian’s arm was about to reach Li Xiaoman! A cold male voice rang out. "Then just keep kneeling there, don’t get up!" Bai Yan’s tall and upright voice suddenly emerged in front of Li Xiaoman, his hand firmly clutching Liu Pengtian’s arm, his eyes piercing Liu Pengtian’s with a chill that reached his very heart.
