The CEO is really domineering

Chapter 77 Ming Family 4

"Sorry, Dong Qing." Ming Xuan sat down and apologized softly.

East Qing, who was eating, paused for a moment and then continued eating. She didn't know what Ming Xuan was up to. Would he really apologize for his actions? If he sincerely apologized, would he let her go and not marry her? East Qing ate while glancing at Ming Xuan from time to time. Ming Xuan picked up his bowl and started eating. East Qing thought to herself, "This guy is too much. I didn't even ask him to eat." But then she remembered that this was Ming Xuan's home and felt speechless for herself. The two of them ate separately at the table. Seeing this scene, East Qing remembered the first time she had dinner with Mo Sen. Thinking about it, she smiled. Ming Xuan's eyes flashed with a hint of malice, but it quickly disappeared. "I'm sorry, East Qing." After finishing their meal, Ming Xuan apologized to East Qing again. This time, East Qing felt a little embarrassed. "Mr. Ming, please don't be like this." East Qing remembered the first time she was chased by Huang Mao in the sports field and Ming Xuan saved her. As a result, both Ming Xuan and Li Qing were injured. At that time, Ming Xuan was a rare good person in her heart and they had a wonderful experience together.

"East Qing, do you want to be caught by the media? We are about to get married, and you still call me Ming Zong. If we get caught by the media, think about how they will speculate." Ming Xuan's words brought her back to reality, and East Qing knew that she and Ming Xuan could never go back to the way things were."Ming Xuan, I will not marry you, do you understand?" Although it was not the right time to say this, she had to. If she didn't, it might be too late."Because of Mo Sen?" "No, it's not because of anyone. Ming Xuan, can you look into my eyes and say you love me? I'll tell you, I don't love you, so I can't marry you, it's that simple." East Qing didn't understand why Ming Xuan always thought of Mo Sen."East Qing, then look into my eyes." Ming Xuan walked up to her and reached out to turn her shoulder."What are you doing?""I love you, East Qing. I fell in love with you the first time I saw you.""But I see someone else in your eyes, not me." East Qing looked into Ming Xuan's eyes, and the person in his eyes was blurry, but she could clearly see herself standing in front of him. So East Qing was sure that the person Ming Xuan loved was not her.Ming Xuan's hands froze on her shoulders.

"Mingxuan, stop deceiving yourself and others. I don't know why you proposed to me, I don't know about your past, and I don't want to be the person you like. We are both adults now, and you are the young master of the Ming Group, so please don't play these childish games. As friends, if you still consider me a friend, what do you think I can do to help you? Just tell me, because I cherish our friendship in my heart. Also, it wasn't me who accepted your proposal last night, it was someone else. I actually rejected you, but I don't know who answered for me loudly from behind. I was wondering about it." Dongqing said a lot in one breath, feeling much better in her heart. She quietly observed Mingxuan's expression, hoping that her words would have an effect on him and make him give up this farce of a proposal.Mingxuan furrowed his brows deeply and looked at her. "Dongqing, do you really not want to marry me? I have my reasons and difficulties for proposing to you. You keep saying you see me as a friend, but why won't you help me?""Dongqing, this is marriage, not a game. How can I agree to you?""Dongqing, whether you agree or not, our marriage is already set. Don't worry, I will treat you well."Dongqing was about to say something when there was a knock on the door."Come in." Mingxuan's voice fell, and a person came in from outside, the steward of the Ming family, Uncle Ming."Young master, the master and madam are waiting for you in the study.""I know, Uncle Ming."The steward left.

"East Qing, please, no matter what, you must marry me. Let's make a deal - before we get married, in front of my parents and the Ming family, we will pretend to be in love and insist on being together until my parents agree. After we get married, East Qing, I will not restrict your freedom. In other words, our marriage will be fake."Facing Ming Xuan's sudden change in attitude, East Qing was at a loss for words for a few seconds before asking, "Why?""In the main hall just now, did you see those six old men, East Qing? Do you know who they are? They were the ones who worked with my father to build our family's success. As you can see, the Ming family is a legend in the business world, and those six uncles played a crucial role. So my father made a deal with them - the descendants of the Ming family can only marry the descendants of those six uncles, or marry into their families. It's a business alliance, and their main concern is to protect the family's interests. East Qing, that's why I'm proposing to you. I won't allow anyone to control my life or my marriage. This is a transaction between us, and once it's done, I will reward you."As Ming Xuan spoke, his hands clenched into fists, his veins popping out.East Qing was confused, "Then why did you choose me?"She didn't know if Ming Xuan was telling the truth or not, because his sudden change in behavior made her cautious."Because you fit my criteria the best, East Qing. Your background is something my parents and those six uncles would never accept. But I want to show them that no one and nothing can control Ming Xuan. This is also a way for me to demonstrate my abilities as the new head of the Ming Group.""East Qing, think about it carefully. I won't treat you unfairly once this is done."With that, Ming Xuan left the room.In that moment, East Qing realized that she was Ming Xuan's friend, but he was definitely not hers.

Sitting on the chair, Dongqing rested her chin on her hand and pondered. She thought about Mingxuan's words again and felt that they were both true and false, but it didn't matter anymore.Mingxuan proposed to her, causing a public reaction. He explained to her why he did it, and he had everything planned out. Now, as he explained it to her, did she still have the option to refuse?Mingxuan's scheming was so deep. Dongqing felt scared. She was afraid that while Mingxuan was calculating everything, he was also calculating her role in this game.Now that she was in the Ming family, what difference did it make whether she agreed or not? She couldn't go to the Ming Lord and Lady and tell them that all of this was Mingxuan's plan, just to deceive them. Since Mingxuan dared to explain everything to her, he must not be afraid of her revealing it. Besides, the Ming Lord and Lady would not believe her anyway.
