The corners of Liang Yilong's lips curled up slightly.
Today, he would take this opportunity to conquer Jiang Yutong and make her his woman.
If he served her well in bed, perhaps Jiang Yutong would stop thinking about Lin Xuan.
Moreover, he would sleep with Jiang Yutong and keep evidence of it.
These wealthy families valued their reputation the most, especially a family like the Jiangs. Once he and Jiang Yutong had consummated their relationship, she would have to marry him even if she didn't want to.
Liang Yilong had it all perfectly calculated in his head.
Jiang Yutong supported Liang Yilong into the private room. Just as she laid him on the bed and prepared to leave, Liang Yilong pinned her down.
Jiang Yutong frowned. She didn't feel her heart race even the slightest bit.
"Tongtong, I like you. I really, really love you. I've liked you for so many years. Be my woman. Don't worry, I'll treat you well." Liang Yilong leaned down to kiss Jiang Yutong's lips.
Jiang Yutong's hairs stood on end, and her entire being was filled with resistance.
She pushed Liang Yilong away with all her might.
Liang Yilong was pretending to be drunk. He was worried that Jiang Yutong might notice something, which would make all his efforts go down the drain.
So, Liang Yilong continued to lie on the bed. He didn't get up to stop Jiang Yutong, continuing to feign unconsciousness.
"Yilong, I'm sorry." Jiang Yutong straightened her clothes. "I'm not ready yet. Let's talk about this when I'm ready."
With that said, Jiang Yutong hurriedly left.
When she reached the door, she breathed a slight sigh of relief.
She didn't know why, but even though she was prepared to spend the rest of her life with Liang Yilong, every time she had to do something intimate with him, she was filled with repulsion.
However, this was a very normal physiological reaction for her. It wasn't just toward Liang Yilong; she was like this with other men too.
Perhaps she just didn't love Liang Yilong enough right now. For now, she would continue to spend time with him and see how things went.
Not long after Jiang Yutong left, Liang Yilong, who was lying on the hotel bed, opened his eyes.
He clenched his fists, his gaze dark and heavy.
Every single time, Jiang Yutong acted like this, resisting any intimacy with him!
But it was fine. This time, he had obtained a watch worth over eighty million, so all the effort he had spent on Jiang Yutong today wasn't in vain.
Liang Yilong couldn't wait to get up from the bed and open the gift box.
When he saw what was inside, his expression suddenly froze.
"This..."
He furrowed his brows tightly.
Why did this watch look different from the one in his memory?
Liang Yilong quickly dug out the photo of the watch his friend had sent him.
It really was different!
Moreover, this watch that Jiang Yutong had given him looked somewhat familiar.
Liang Yilong took a picture of the watch and sent it to his friend.
"Lao Wei, take a look at this watch. What brand is it and how much does it cost?"
His friend replied very quickly.
"This watch is also from a high-end brand. I've seen this exact model at a boutique. It costs three hundred thousand to buy one."
Three hundred thousand?
Only three hundred thousand?
Liang Yilong's eyes widened in disbelief.
"Yilong? You already have the watch worth over eighty million that Jiang Yutong gave you. Why are you asking about this one?"
"Nothing, I was just asking out of curiosity."
"Ah—"
Unable to hold back, Liang Yilong smashed his phone against the wall.
"Jiang! Yu! Tong!" Liang Yilong gritted his teeth.
She actually didn't give him that watch worth over eighty million!
He had thought Jiang Yutong bought it for him, but it turned out she didn't!
Not only was it not the watch worth over eighty million, but it was just a cheap watch worth three hundred thousand!
Jiang Yutong was so rich, yet she only gave him a mere three hundred thousand watch. How was this any different from dismissing a beggar!
Hehehe.
That watch worth over eighty million must have been bought for Lin Xuan.
Jiang Yutong only had eyes for Lin Xuan!
Liang Yilong's eyes were filled with gloomy darkness.
"Heh." Liang Yilong sneered. "Jiang Yutong, oh Jiang Yutong. Since you've taken me, Liang Yilong, as your boyfriend, yet you still want to be with Lin Xuan, let me tell you, don't even think about it!"
He had offered his heart to Jiang Yutong, but she had wantonly thrown it on the ground and trampled all over it.
Once he married Jiang Yutong, he would make her pay for all the humiliation she had brought upon him!
He would thoroughly humiliate her.
Originally, he liked Jiang Yutong very much and wanted to live a good life with her. But since she was so fickle and unfaithful, she couldn't blame him.
"Lin Xuan, Jiang Yutong, just you two wait!"
Once he obtained the power he deserved, he would slowly deal with them one by one!
"Achoo."
Lin Xuan sneezed heavily.
He rubbed his nose.
Why did he always feel like someone was thinking about him?
In the afternoon.
Lin Xuan didn't go to the experimental laboratory again.
After leaving Liang Yilong's place, Jiang Yutong hurriedly rushed back to the laboratory.
She looked left and right, but Lin Xuan was nowhere to be seen.
Was Little Xuan not coming today?
Her brows were tightly furrowed.
Ten minutes later.
Lin Xuan sent a message in the group chat, saying he had something to do and wouldn't be coming to the project team.
A student from Shangqing University kindly reminded her, "President Jiang, Lin Xuan has some matters to attend to and won't be coming this afternoon."
Upon hearing this news, obvious disappointment appeared on Jiang Yutong's face.
As expected, Little Xuan wasn't coming.
Little Xuan clearly said he would come in the morning, but now he wasn't coming. Could he be avoiding her?
With Lin Xuan absent, Jiang Yutong lost interest in staying any longer.
She grabbed her bag and left the laboratory.
As soon as she left, the members couldn't help but whisper among themselves.
"President Jiang was staying in this lab perfectly fine, but the moment she found out Lin Xuan wasn't coming, she left too. It's obvious that she likes Lin Xuan. She joined this microchip project just to get more chances to be with him. Being close at hand gives her a clear advantage. If you ask me, Jiang Yutong is trying to edge out Boss Su and take her place."
"Right, right, right, I think so too. I wonder if she'll succeed. From what it looks like right now, Lin Xuan isn't interested in her at all."
"They say when a woman chases a man, there's only a thin veil between them. It's entirely possible that Lin Xuan might actually be won over by Jiang Yutong."
The eyes of the project team members were filled with intense gossip.
President Jiang had been at the university for a few days now, so she must have known about the relationship between Lin Xuan and Boss Su.
Yet she still acted like this, trying every possible way to spend time with Lin Xuan. It was glaringly obvious that she wanted to push Boss Su aside and take her spot.
It had to be said that even though Jiang Yutong couldn't compare to Boss Su, her looks and family background were quite a good match for Lin Xuan.
However, even though they thought this way, they didn't dare say it out loud.
After all, there were some of Boss Su's people here.
If Boss Su found out what they were thinking, they would be done for.
Lin Jingyue looked somewhat devastated.
Even Jiang Yutong liked Lin Xuan so much. There really were far too many outstanding people surrounding him.
When the employees of the Su Corporation heard their conversation, a sense of vigilance rose in their eyes.
This won't do.
They had to report this matter to Boss Su. They absolutely could not let Young Master Lin be snatched away by Jiang Yutong.
One of the Su Group employees didn't have Su Hua's phone number, so he called Jiang Qing instead.
