Two Contracts - My Lover is a CEO

When Yang Xinyu reached the office, the first thing he did was to check on Wu Lina. He called the landline, which the housekeeper picked up.

"Where is Wu Lina, Mrs. Jiao?"

"Young master, she is still sleeping. She hasn't come out of the bedroom."

"Okay," he said and disconnected the phone. He was too worried and wanted to call her on the hand phone, but he restrained himself.

Zhou Zhili had already filled him with the information regarding his schedule. There were meetings and a visit to the branch located on the outskirts of the city where faulty processors were found.

The day started and he became engrossed. In between the meetings he would check his phone to see whether Wu Lina has called or messaged him. When she didn't message him even until afternoon, he became anxious. She maintained a stoic silence and he was at the receiving end. What could he do to allay her fears? He remembered that he had to prepone his engagement date. But for that, he had to talk to Wu Lina first.

Unable to bear her silence anymore, he called her in the afternoon after 1pm. Wu Lina picked up the phone and answered.

"Hi…"

"How are you feeling?"

"It burns…"

Yang Xinyu felt miserable. How could he initiate the topic?

"Lina, do you want to go to the hospital again? Please rub some ice over there. It will heal fast…"

"I'll do that… no, I don't want to go…"

She was giving short answers as if not wanting to talk to him…

Yang Xinyu hated when she didn't talk to him. He decided to go home early. But his schedule was so tight that he ended up winding at 8pm in the evening. When he reached home, he was very tired. Seeing that Wu Lina was reticent, he decided to take a shower and call it a night.

They had dinner quietly much to Mrs. Jiao's discomfort.

On the bed, Yang Xinyu faced her while she slept. He glided his fingers through her hair, wanting to touch her. Wu Lina wasn't sleeping and when she felt his hand near her, she opened her eyes. She turned uncomfortably and looked at him. She brought her hand near his face and stroked his cheeks. It wasn't his fault…

Yang Xinyu caught her fingers and kissed them, closing his eyes and breathing a sigh of relief. He moved near her and stretched his hand under her to cradle her neck. Kissing her nose tip, he said, "Wu Lina, get well soon…"

Somewhere in the suburbs, someone was already burning with jealousy and contemplating revenge. How could she be preferred over her by two men who first doted on her? And now, they're not even showing any interest in her. She took her picture in her hand and burnt it with the lighter she had used to light her cigarette. She had all the information about Wu Lina and wanted to leak the information to someone…

Yang Xinyu turned his head towards her and said, "Wu Lina, I want to prepone our engagement date to next week."

Wu Lina smiled. Now that the problem of the contract was over, she had no reasons to hold back. "Yang Xinyu, I am ready," she agreed.

Yang Xinyu's eyes opened wide! He was so excited that he sprang up. "How about next Monday?"

Wu Lina laughed, "Any day suits me."

Without a second's delay, Yang Xinyu called his father to inform him. More than Yang Xinyu, it was Chairman Yang Min-Chang who was thrilled. Although it was past 10pm in the night, he called his secretary to arrange the event. The Chairman couldn't catch a wink of sleep that night.

Yang Chún qiàn had overheard the conversation…

The next day, Yang Chún qiàn waited for the Chairman to leave for the office. She dressed casually and left at 10am to make her presence felt at the penthouse. A car with four bodyguards followed her.

Upon reaching the House of Fengs, she took the elevator alone to the penthouse. Mrs. Jiao opened the door for her because when she saw through the camera that only Mrs. Yang was there.

"Where is Wu Lina?" she asked intimidatingly.

"Young miss is taking bath. She will be ready soon," replied Mrs. Jiao fearfully. She was afraid that Mrs. Yang might create the same problem.

"Inform her that I am here. I will wait for her."

"Yes, Mrs. Yang." Mrs. Jiao left her to inform Wu Lina.

Wu Lina came out knowing fully well how to defend herself in case Mrs. Yang acted menacingly. She messaged Yang Xinyu about her.

She sat opposite her. "Mrs. Yang, good morning."

"Oh! You will call me Mrs. Yang! What has happened to respect? But then, what can I expect from a person as low as you?" she spat.

"Why are you here?" Wu Lina kept the conversation curt.

"This is my son's house. I can come anytime I feel like. But today I have come to throw you out for good."

"Throwing me out of your son's life isn't a good idea, Mrs. Yang. You see, we are emotionally connected to each other. We complete each other. If one ceases to exist, then so will the other. As a mother, you are fully aware of your son's predicament. But then, I understand Yang Xinyu's anxieties now. He had a mother who was barely with him throughout his childhood. You can only look at Yang Xinyu as a commodity for barter. You bartered him to stay in your marriage, you bartered him to keep hold of your property and now you want to barter him for a good business family to enhance your reputation. But I know that a person like you will not stop here. You will continue to make his life miserable."

Yang Chún qiàn looked at her with contempt and got up to open the entrance door. Wu Lina thought that she was leaving but to her surprise, as soon as the door opened four bodyguards entered. The security men outside the entrance that were stationed for her were lying unconscious. A dreadful feeling ran down her spine.

The bodyguards came and surrounded her, each laced with guns that had silencer attached to them.

Yang Chún qiàn looked like a devil with her red eyes. "Now you know what I am and what I can do?"

"What are you trying, Mrs. Yang?" asked Wu Lina, beads of sweat appearing on her forehead. "If Yang Xinyu will come to know, he will be wild."

"Don't say his name with your spiteful mouth! He is my son and has my genes. He will get over you in no time. I will throw finest lasses over him. You think he will be able to resist that temptation?"

Wu Lina laughed mildly, "Then you don't know him at all. I pity you. He could have had any girl in City H, but only we are fated together. Don't do anything that you will regret for the rest of your life. Please leave us before this gets out of hand."
