Rolling love Chapter 71

Chapter 71
The melodious music ceased abruptly.
“ Now that you have Xu back with the help of Liang Ruiqiang, this marriage is of no value to you anymore, is it ?” Jiang Yu Nan shook his glass slightly and laughed.
“ I don’t want any kind of divorce settlement, you can rest assured”, Yan Liang deliberately answered a different question as she pushed the papers on the table toward him.
“ If I sign, what then ?” Jiang Yu Nan asked her “Will all the grudges between be settled ? Will we continue to be in touch for the rest of our lives ?”
Yes.. what then ? Yan Liang also asked herself.
She had loved this man, and then hated him deeply. But the DNA report was still lying in her bag. Earlier when she had called Liang Aunt in New Zealand , she had been sobbing speechlessly. All the time she reminded herself, she had put in all her efforts, but now this was all such a big joke now.
Aunt Liang had asked her to promise that she wouldn’t reveal all this to her mother. This woman had raised her for so many years. Their relationship had been more than that between blood relatives. She couldn’t give her up,
But the man standing in front of her now..
It was time to let go, set him and herself free..
… …
In the silence between the two, the man suddenly stood up.
Yan Liang subconsciously took a step back, fully alert. Seeing this, Jiang Yu Nan laughed self- deprecatingly. He raised his own glass, with his other hand, he took another tulip glass, and poured champagne in both of them. Then he extended the glass towards her. “ Happy anniversary !”
Yan Liang just looked at the glass, but didn’t take it.
Jiang Yu Nan didn’t force her. He tilted his glass slightly so that the champagne poured on the divorce papers lying on the table.
He had expressed his position through his actions.
Yan Liang put a business card in the table. “ When you want to sign, call up my lawyer on this number”, she said.
Then she was gone..
Jiang Yu Nan stood at the same position. He did not watch her leave. With his head down, he seemed to be looking at the business card on the table, but in reality his eyes were so misty he couldn’t see anything at all. His head was bowed as he heard her footsteps leave the room. Then he sat down.
The cellists on the stage weren’t sure whether to leave, they looked at the lone gentleman who was their only audience.
His body was shrouded by intense despair so that others felt guilty leaving him alone like this.
“Please play a song …” he said softly.
“……” “…”
“……” “…”
He didn’t go on. Was it his emotions that choked his throat?
But he was just as calm, sitting there with no expression on his face. What deep emotions were hidden behind that calm façade ?
The cellist thought a bit and sat down again. The music started again.
…… …

Goodbye, my almost lover Goodbye, my almost lover
Goodbye, my hopeless dream Goodbye, my hopeless dream
I’m trying not to think about you I’m trying to think about you
Cant you just let me be Can’t you just let me be

That night, Yan Liang moved out of the Xu house.
As the car left the gates, Yan Liang looked at the house through the rearview mirror. The house that had been her cage for the last two years
…… Goodbye……
See you later……
The next day she woke up in the hotel room. She looked at the strange ceiling. Even she didn’t know if she finally attained a rebirth , or whether she had just left all her emotions and feelings in the house and had only moved out with her body.
Jiang Yu Nan did not try to find her again, it seemed that night had finally snapped all connections between them
As a new brand, j’appelle started its new journey. But of course, as Yan Liang and a lot of other people had anticipated, Li Bo was not going to let her off easily.
Jiang Shi Jun used all possible resources to try and block J’appelle; it could not get any advertising agencies that Li Bo used. It could not enter large malls where Li Bo had significant pull. Many negative reports appeared in the market about J’appelle. These were all Jiang Shi Jun’s doing. Even the allergic reaction news about Yan Yan was dug up by him again
But J’appelle carried out its crisis management in PR in an orderly manner.
Relying on their agreement with the Ming Group and using their country wide sales network, new promotional activities were carried out across the country, including celebrity endorsements and other publicity tools.
Three months had already passed
After Xu’s acquisition by Li Bo, a lot of the suppliers had been terminated. Yan Liang personally visited the old suppliers one by one. Naturally, they were willing to extend their contacts and resources to her.
In order to eliminate the negative PR about the allergic reaction, Yan Liang even decided to take a big risk – she published the formula.
From the moment the formula was published, Lu Zheng was in a cold sweat, “ You are too bold. There are no other entrepreneurs in the country who behave the way you do.”
But it turned out that the strategy worked
From time to time, Lu Zheng would invite her to have dinner with him. At the dinner table, Yan Liang was finally able to smile as she handed the sales report to Lu Zheng. The numbers were clear, Yan Liang was finally able to feel some relief, “ You see, in this world , the ones who don’t dare will starve and die.”
Lu Zheng smiled . While looking at the report, he could only repeatedly say , “Yes.”
In the war between Li and J’appelle , although Ming Group officially maintained neutrality , Yan Liang was very much aware how much Lu Zheng had helped her.
She appreciated it, but perhaps she had changed a lot. If others did a good deed for her, she was pleased to accept, but she no longer thought of how to repay them
Lu Zheng’s feelings for her were becoming more and make deep, but she ignored the evident signs.
She had really changed, even Zhou Cheng figure this out soon.
In recent times, she had little contact with Zhou Cheng. It was rare for him to call her, and the topic was Xu Ziqing. “ Xiao Qing’s case will be heard in the court day after tomorrow.”
“Is it?”
“……” “…”
Zhou Cheng sounded hesitant, but Yan Liang was in no mood to be kind to him,” Is it possible that you want me to attend the hearing with you? I can go , but I cannot promise you that when they declare her guilty, I will not stand up and clap.”
“……” “…”
“……” “…”
After a long time, Zhou Cheng finally sighed, “ Yan Liang, you have changed completely.”
“Is it?” Yan Liang’s mouth curved up in a smile. “ You are finally disappointed in me, but I love this horrid persona of myself nowadays.”
Love this horrid persona of myself nowadays… only living for my own selfish interests..
Love this horrid persona of myself nowadays..where the emotions of my heart no longer distract me ..
In the three months that had passed by, Yan Liang did not take even a single day off. If Liang Ruiqiang had not invited her to participate in the wedding of his daughter in New York, Yan Liang would have continued working.
Liang Ruiqiang was her greatest benefactor, Yan Liang naturally had to postpone everything and fly down.
“ I really want to thank you Mr Liang. If not for you, this girl was not planning to take a holiday in her whole life”, he said.
Yan Liang did not expect him to say this, she was momentarily nonplussed.
Liang Ruiqiang looked at the two of them thoughtfully. At last, he gave them a very meaningful smile, as if he had finally pinned down the relationship between these two young people.
In this situation, Yan Liang could only cough with embarrassment.
Liang Jiaqian’s wedding was held for three days in New York and Long Island.
The last night of the party was in a mansion in Long Island. Many domestic and foreign dignitaries were invited to attend. Yan Liang had also heard that Miss Liang’s fiancé had served as the personal assistant of a major financial wheeler dealer , and was now appointed as district manager for the fund in New York. Whoever saw the couple together could see that they were absolutely in love with each other.
On the night of the party, Liang Ruiqiang’s wife was naturally dressed to the nines. She was really young and beautiful.
Although this was the first time that Yan Liang had seen her, she felt she had seen this woman before. She looked very familiar.
Yan Liang frowned as she looked at her, until she suddenly heard someone say , “Why are you unable to turn your eyes away from her?”
Yan Liang was surprised for a moment. She withdrew her gaze to see Lu Zheng standing in front of her.
He handed her a glass of wine.
She looked down at the glass as she took it.
She sipped it and then couldn’t help but look at Liang Ruiqiang and his wife again.
But this time, Mrs Liang caught her staring at her.
Slightly perplexed, Mrs Liang nodded at Yan Liang with a smile.
To conceal her embarrassment, Yan Liang tried to smile as well when suddenly something flashed in her brain and her smile stiffened.
She immediately put down her glass and took out her phone from the handbag.
Her sudden eagerness to look for her phone attracted the concern of Lu Zheng, “What happened?”
Yan Liang just shook her head silently, and kept looking at her phone.
Finally she found what she was looking for, the scandal about Jiang Yu Nan nearly a year ago.
At that time, the entertainment news networks had caught Jiang Yu Nan entering a private club with a mysterious woman.
At the end of the news item, the reporter had even suggestively added, “ At the time of the press release, the two were still in the club.”
The photo with the news was not clear, but at that time she was able to recognise at a glance who that man was.
..and the graceful woman on the photo..
At this moment in the party, her brain had flashed this image, forcing her to look at Mrs Liang..
…… …
Wasn’t she the woman who had been photographed with Jiang Yu Nan entering the private club ?
