89. Selfishness

Cheng Qingxing smiled awkwardly, sat there, and took a sip of the somewhat bitter coffee, which instantly refreshed him.

"Captain Yan, I feel like you definitely don't like me." Cheng Qingxing sighed, "You just want to compete with him."

"No, I just like you." Yan Shenghui answered eagerly, "I have never forgotten you, even after going abroad——"

"Stop, stop. You definitely can't forget me." Cheng Qingxing interrupted him, "Team Leader Yan, you're just unwilling to accept that you didn't get me."

When he was in school, Cheng Qingxing didn't feel what he called love, he just wanted to be recognized by the people around him.

In Yan Shenghui's life, he does not allow anyone to disobey him, including those he likes.

Yan Shenghui on the opposite side did not say anything, but just looked at him quietly.

"You've been competing with him for more than ten years. There's actually no need." Cheng Qingxing sighed helplessly, "You two are not on the same track."

Although the word "track" was used incorrectly, Cheng Qingxing was not wrong.

Of the two of them, Zheng Xuhe is in the entertainment industry, while Yan Shenghui did not act after graduation. He went abroad for further training, and when he came back, he had already become an international supermodel.

One is a model, the other is an actor, he really doesn't know what they are fighting about.

"I'm not arguing with him, I'm just expressing my feelings for you."

Yan Shenghui said it again very sincerely that he would never admit in his life that he was competing with Zheng Xuhe for Cheng Qingxing.

"So do you need me to reject you a second time?"

Cheng Qingxing's tone did not allow for rejection, and Bai Zhian, who was standing beside him, was stunned.

Bai Zhian widened her eyes and looked at him in disbelief, "So just now, Cheng Qingxing, are you crazy too?"

Cheng Qingxing was certainly not crazy, he just wanted Yan Shenghui to know clearly that he would not like Yan Shenghui.

"You don't allow yourself to fail, so when you confessed to me that year, nothing you said was true." Cheng Qingxing looked into his eyes.

He tilted his head slightly and looked at Yan Shenghui's gloomy expression, "Master Yan, I am not an object."

Yan Shenghui's face gradually darkened as Cheng Qingxing spoke, and a complex emotion flashed in his eyes, including anger and unwillingness.

But he quickly adjusted his expression and smiled slightly, but that smile was a little cold.

"Cheng Qingxing, do you really think so?" His voice was low and calm, as if the urgency just now had never appeared, "I can't marry you just for Zheng Xuhe."

Cheng Qingxing was amused by his words, "Then I wouldn't fall in love with you out of thin air, and I certainly wouldn't like you out of thin air."

"Yan Shenghui, you don't have to pretend in front of me. I know what kind of person you are. You are used to getting everything and being in control, but feelings are not something you can obtain through tricks and competition."

Bai Zhian looked at the tense atmosphere between the two and felt a little overwhelmed.

She tried to ease the situation and said softly, "Hey, you two... don't be like this. We are old friends. Can't you sit down and have a good chat?"

But Cheng Qingxing and Yan Shenghui ignored her.

Yan Shenghui stood up and slowly walked to Cheng Qingxing, looking down at him, then he sighed and laughed, "No wonder Zheng Xuhe divorced you. After so many years, you are still so selfish."

Cheng Qingxing also stood up and looked him straight in the eye without flinching: "What does it have to do with you? It's not your turn to talk about what happened between him and me."

Yan Shenghui's expression turned ugly, and then he smiled helplessly, "You are still the same as before, very good at making excuses."

These words made Cheng Qingxing's smile turn bitter. He didn't know how to refute, and even didn't want to pay attention to Yan Shenghui.

When he was in school, his rejections of Yan Shenghui were all out of politeness.

Moreover, he knew that Yan Shenghui was the young master of the Yan family, so he didn't dare to have any opinions about him.

When Yan Shenghui pursued him, he turned a blind eye and pretended that he didn't understand. When he was about to confess to herself, he gave Yan Shenghui a reminder in advance.

Because Yan Shenghui probably realized that he was going to be rejected, he didn't even confess his love to her and the two of them lost contact.

"Master Yan, if you didn't know that Zheng Xuhe and I were married and divorced, would you come to me?"

As soon as this question was asked, Yan Shenghui's face turned pale instantly. He didn't know how to answer for a moment, so he subconsciously kicked the table.

Because he moved too much, the coffee cup shook and the bitter coffee spilled onto the table.

Bai Zhian was terrified watching from the side. She hurried over to comfort Yan Shenghui and said, "Yan Shenghui, forget it, stop making trouble..."

Yan Shenghui shook off her hand, glanced at her coldly, then glared at Cheng Qingxing for the last time, turned around and strode out of the cafe.

Only Cheng Qingxing and Bai Zhian were left in the cafe.

Bai Zhian sighed, walked to Cheng Qingxing, and whispered, "What good will it do you to offend him?"

"I..." Cheng Qingxing smiled bitterly, "I didn't offend him, I just told him the truth. I don't like him, so do I have to go along with him?"

"You were indeed obedient before." Bai Zhian muttered, looking aggrieved, "You were always obedient to everyone before, how could you talk like that?"

Cheng Qingxing nodded subconsciously, "Indeed, I always thought that as long as I had a good relationship with everyone, I would be able to get better and better in the future."

But once you leave school, you realize that you are thinking too much.

Any resources depend on capital. No one will help you unless you are useful to him.

"You didn't keep such a useful person." Bai Zhian complained openly, "Zheng Xuhe, you didn't keep him either."

"Hey~" Cheng Qingxing took a breath and glared at Bai Zhian, "You kid, are you still lobbying for him?"

"I didn't. I'm just telling the truth." Bai Zhian felt aggrieved, then picked up her phone and put it in her pocket. "Zheng Xuhe must be a good resource for you. If you stay with him, he will give you everything."

Cheng Qingxing stood up and walked outside, Bai Zhian followed him.

"He's different from the others." Cheng Qingxing took a sip of coffee. "I can use a lot of people to climb up, but I don't want to use him to climb up."

"Why?" Bai Zhian asked subconsciously.

"Because we really loved each other." Cheng Qingxing stopped and looked at the sky. "Love cannot be used."

Bai Zhian nodded and said loudly: "You all have love, but you can't see it clearly."
