Chapter 295 We're Not Suitable

Qu Jianhang finished the call and walked over, saying, "Sorry, where were we?"

In front of Yan Chengyu, Qu Jianhang was poised and elegant, his expression impeccable.

But this is not the Qu Jianhang that Yan Chengyu wanted.

He knew he still had a long way to go.

Yan Chengyu said, "When are you free? Let's have dinner together."

Qu Jianhang smiled and said, "We've been talking for so long, and there's something I've always wanted to tell you."

Yan Chengyu had a strange, bad feeling about him.

He said, "You speak."

"We're not a good match," Qu Jianhang said directly. "You're busy with work, and I'm not idle either. If we're together, can we even see each other once every ten days or two weeks?"

Yan Chengyu knew that what she said was true.

Qu Jianhang added, "I can't give up my career for a man or for love. I believe you wouldn't either, so there's no need for us to continue."

Yan Chengyu was silent for a few seconds, then asked her, "So, you want to find a man who only has time for you and no other requirements?"

"It's not that simple," Qu Jianhang said. "At least not as busy as you are."

"If I'm eliminated because I'm busy with work, I won't accept it."

Qu Jianhang looked at him and smiled: "But you don't have time to spend with me."

"I'll try my best." Yan Chengyu looked at her. "Would it be convenient for me to give you a copy of your upcoming schedule?"

Qu Jianhang waved to his secretary who was not far away.

The secretary came over and said, "Here's my schedule for Director Yan."

When Yan Chengyu received the document, he discovered that most of her recent travels had been abroad.

Various meetings, gatherings, and social engagements filled my schedule.

Qu Jianhang rested his chin on his hand and looked at him; "How was it?"

Yan Chengyu said helplessly, "I probably won't be able to go abroad."

Qu Jianhang said, "Then there's nothing I can do."

"Will your schedule be like this from now on? I see you spend most of your time abroad."

"For now," Qu Jianhang said. "Things will get much better after these busy months."

“I can’t go abroad, but when you’re in the country, I try my best to see you. Also, I see you off every time you leave. I pick you up every time you come back.”

Given the intensity of his work, Qu Jianhang didn't believe him at all when he said that.

It's not that I don't believe in him as a person, it's that I don't believe he has that much time.

But in the following months, Yan Chengyu succeeded.

He would arrange his work according to Qu Jianhang's schedule, and if there was really no way to coordinate, he would try to find a solution.

For Yan Chengyu, going to the airport to see someone off or pick them up was a huge waste of time.

Because the round trip takes too long.

If it were the Yan Chengyu of the past, he would never have imagined that he would waste so much time on the journey.

But now, he is keeping his promise and wants to make sure that the last person she sees when she goes abroad is him.

I also want to make sure that when she comes home, the first person she sees is me.

Qu Jianhang never expected that Yan Chengyu would actually go to such lengths for her.

Such an outstanding man, pursuing her with such sincerity and earnestness, is bound to be captivating.

Although there are many other equally outstanding men pursuing her, feelings and attraction are sometimes just a feeling.

It's hard to explain, and it's intriguing.

It is precisely this uncertainty that makes relationships mysterious and inspiring.

Later, Qu Jianhang overheard Yan Chengyu's secretary making a phone call.

It is said that Yan Chengyu missed many important meetings because of her.

They also lost many opportunities to have close contact with their superiors.

When their official positions are not high enough, whether they can be promoted may depend on a single word from their superiors.

However, because of Qu Jianhang, he has already lost many opportunities.

Even now, he is still young and promising.

But he could have gone even further.

Afterwards, Qu Jianhang asked him, "Pursuing someone is a very tiring and exhausting thing, and I might not even agree to be with you. If we don't end up together, will you regret all the energy you wasted?"

"I've said before that I'll regret it if I don't give it my all," Yan Chengyu said. "For me, this is the most important thing."

"More important than your job?"

"Yes, compared to you."

Qu Jianhang looked at him and asked, "If pursuing me hinders your career, how would you feel?"

"That can only be because I am incompetent, it has nothing to do with anyone else."

Qu Jianhang knew that Yan Chengyu was not the type to just talk the talk; he was a man of his word and a man of his word.

It's been almost a year since we first met.

Although the two barely saw each other in the first six months, they met quite often in the last six months.

They got to know each other better.

But Qu Jianhang knew that in the most important place in his heart, there was still Lin Xiyin's father.

She was unwilling to easily open her heart to other men.

Even when she first decided to try dating Yan Chengyu, she really only wanted physical contact with him and didn't want it to last.

This kind of thinking may be despicable, but Qu Jianhang certainly has the capital to be despicable.

But she didn't realize at the time that by allowing this man to get close, even if only physically, it meant that she treated him differently from others.

Women are generally more emotional than men.

When it comes to sex, men may focus more on physical pleasure.

There's a saying that goes, "It's all the same when the lights are off."

But women are different.

Qu Jianhang, in particular, has ridiculously high standards.

Given her status and wealth, countless men would flock to her, eager to be chosen by her.

She's seen men with great physiques.

But so what?

She never even considered having anything happen between them.

When her work focus shifted from overseas to China, Yan Chengyu finally had the opportunity to enter her home.

But that was all they did was let him in.

Qu Jianhang is not used to having outsiders in her home; she only has an aunt who takes care of her year-round.

She invited Yan Chengyu to her home for dinner, but the aunt accidentally twisted her ankle, and Qu Jianhang asked someone to take the aunt to the hospital.

When Yan Chengyu arrived, all the ingredients were ready, but no one was cooking.

Qu Jianhang was so busy that he forgot about their appointment, and only remembered it when he opened the door and saw him.

She still invited them into the house: "Please sit down and wait, I'll go change my clothes, and we'll go out to eat."

Yan Chengyu asked in surprise, "We agreed to eat at home."

Qu Jianhang explained briefly: "The cook was injured and went to the hospital, so there's no one to cook and we have to eat out."

Yan Chengyu said, "How about I give it a try?"

Qu Jianhang looked at him: "Try what?"

Yan Chengyu said, "I can cook."

Qu Jianhang laughed: "This is the first time I've invited you to my home for dinner, how could I let you, my guest, do the cooking?"
