CEO Vengeful Wife-Chapter 196: Club owner...escorted your fiance?

"Would you...confront him?" Subtle apprehension appeared in Jing Lihua's eyes as she asked in a meek tone.

"Of course!" Sensing her meekness, Lang Yufan was getting even more confident. "I am the heir of Lang family fortune. I am certain my name alone would be enough to force him to back off. Ah Lihua, let me meet him. If he backs off so easily after meeting him, you would know he was never sincere towards you." Lang Yufan said in the tone of a caring friend, trying to convince Jing Lihua to allow him to meet him.

Inwardly he was thinking 'This Jing Lihua is really stupid. She let me know that she already got a fiance. If I take this intel to the Su family, I can easily earn their trust. Since this fiance of hers appears to be some commoner, I can easily persuade him to side with me with some bribe'

With all those plots in his head and the sincerest smile upon his face, he relentlessly continued to try and convince Jing Lihua into agreeing his meeting her fiance.

Under his persuasions, Jing Lihua pretended to waver at first. Then finally, she relented. "It's just...don't say anything offending in front of him. I understand you think he is not worthy of me but still, please check your words in front of him...he is still my fiance." Jing Lihua, being a saintess she was in her heart, gave her sincerest advice.

After all, if this Lang Yufan really ended up saying something out of limits she couldn't guarantee he would live another day.

That Li Zhiqiang, he might be a soft-hearted sweet talker in front of her but Jing Lihua knew exactly how fearsome he was. He wasn't called the great Devil for no reason. She had learned through Li Xun how that Tang Huang, who had attempted to assassinate her, lost his life.

"I would try my best." Lang Yufan scoffed in his mind.

As if...why would he, as the young master of the great Lang family, ever care to keep his words in check in front of a commoner?

Just a couple of minutes ago, Jing Lihua had received a message from Li Zhiqiang. He had told her he was in the private room upstairs waiting for her.

"Let's go then." Jing Lihua was eager to meet Li Zhiqiang.

"Where is he?" Lang Yufan squinted his eyes, looking around as if expecting him to appear out from the entrance through the common room.

But who was Li Zhiqiang? He was specially escorted from another passageway up to the private room.

"He is upstairs...In the private room. I have informed him you intend to meet him. Follow me." Jing Lihua didn't wait to give Lang Yufan to digest this information. She turned and was already on her way upstairs.

"Privat

e room?" Lang Yufan's expressions changed.

This was a high-end club. Especially its owner was rather an arrogant and influential man. Those who could enjoy the privileged treatment were a few. And Jing Lihua fiance was in the privileged private room? A commoner could definitely not afford such a thing...

Could it be that Jing Lihua fiance was not a commoner, after all?

Lang Yufan immediately consoled himself: 'It must have been Jing Lihua who had booked a private room. After all, she doesn't want media to discover her engagement just after her divorce so she can't meet her fiance in open. After all, her Tang enterprise holds wide influence and can afford it. There is nothing to worry about.'

Although he thought so, fear had already settled in his heart. 

As the went upstairs, the crowd started to diminish. Unknown figures started to disappear and familiar figures on mainstream became a common scenario. In fact, for Lang Yufan, it felt a bit awkward to be among all the shining stars.

He glanced at Jing Lihua to see if she was feeling the same way as he was.

However, contrary to his expectations, she was totally comfortable being at that place. 

And why would she not be? Who was she? The President of the mega-conglomerate, the Tang enterprise. Of course, she belonged to this privileged group upstairs. Unlike him...

As those unsettling thoughts entered Lang Yufan's head, he suddenly started feeling inadequate. The man who had been so confident just downstairs now felt like he was no match for the woman beside him. Deep insecurity rooted in his heart. His mood dampened considerably.

Jing Lihua was observing Lang Yufan from a sideline. 'Lang Yufan, you have not yet even met my fiance and you are already this overwhelmed? Tsk! How are you going to shoulder the psychological pressure of meeting him? Just don't pass out, alright. Or all of this would be for nothing.' She laughed in her heart.

"How far is it?" Lang Yufan's tone was slightly off as he asked anxiously. 

"Not so far. Just the rooms on the left side. Mr. Lang sounds anxious. Is there anything?" Jing Lihua asked with curiosity.

"It's just...Ah Lihua, you had booked for one of the most expensive private rooms for your fiance to meet me. I just...feel like it was unnecessary. You must have had to go through a lot of trouble to get this room."

"Huh...? Mr. Lang is mistaken. I didn't get those rooms. It was my fiance... And you do not need to concern about the trouble of getting them. My fiance told me that the club owner had personally escorted him to his room. He didn't have to go thro

ugh any trouble." Jing Lihua said nonchalantly, unaware of the profound effect her words would leave on the poor Lang Yufan.

"Club owner...escorted your fiance?" Lang Yufan's voice was barely more than a whisper. His eyes bulging out.

To his bad luck, Jing Lihua was too eager to jump into Li Zhiqiangs arms. She didn't even slow down to give Lang Yufan some time to get accustomed to the change. She eagerly rushed through the corridor having unformed mercenaries holding weapons standing on both sides in lines.

She opened the door to the private room and walked in.

Lang Yufan could only gulp down his fear and walked in timidly.
