Chapter 84 I've Always Loved Him
An Ning seemed to have not expected Lu Qinghe to say this. Her eyes were filled with surprise, and her hand holding the juice suddenly tightened.
Remarry?
These two words were simply a luxury for her, something she dared not even think about.
"Didn't you return to Jinghai this time to win him back?"
Lu Qinghe swirled her wine glass, smiling brightly. "After all, you were the one who filed for divorce, and you were the one who dumped him. My brother has never experienced such a setback in his relationship since he was a child. So if you want to rekindle our old relationship, you have to take the initiative. At least give him a way out."
An Ning's head was buzzing as she listened to her words, and her heart was filled with bitterness.
Perhaps in Sister Qinghe's view, she left Lu Xiyan on a whim, so now she regrets it and wants to reconcile with him.
But the truth is not like this...
The end and beginning of this relationship are no longer up to her.
"Sister Qinghe, you misunderstood." An Ning lowered her eyes slightly and said softly, "I returned to Jinghai for my mother, and went to Outeng just for work, not for him."
"An Ning." Lu Qinghe's bright face still had a smile on it. "You can fool him with this, but you can't fool me, so don't fool yourself either."
An Ning's breathing stagnated and she looked at her suddenly.
"Do you know why I like you?" Lu Qinghe smiled. "Because when I first saw you, I felt that you were clean and pure, like a piece of transparent glass without any impurities. I can see your essence at a glance."
"I grew up in an environment where people were treated cruelly and I've met so many different kinds of people. They all say one thing, mean another, are two-faced, and are very difficult to deal with."
Lu Qinghe leaned back in her chair, a smile in her beautiful eyes. "Lu Xiyan and I grew up in this environment, so I'm not surprised that he fell in love with you. He sees many qualities in you that other rich girls don't have. To be more precise, your mutual attraction is destined."
"Similarly, I've seen countless people, and I won't misjudge anyone." She looked directly into An Ning's trembling eyes, "I don't believe a single word of the rumors out there about you leaving Lu Xiyan."
"I don't believe this is something you could do, nor do I believe you are that kind of person. But anyway, it's your decision, and I have no right to ask too much."
Lu Qinghe smiled lightly, "We are all women. Your eyes can't deceive me. You obviously still love Lu Xiyan, why don't you dare to admit it?"
An Ning's heart suddenly shrank, as if someone was holding it tightly and she couldn't breathe.
Perhaps it was because her thoughts were seen through by someone, or perhaps it was because the love and grievances in her heart that were difficult to express were suddenly seen and understood by someone, she felt a lump in her throat, her eyes were sore, and her vision quickly blurred.
"I am sorry for him..." An Ning choked and tears suddenly rolled down her cheeks.
"Then why did you suddenly divorce?" Lu Qinghe asked with a frown, "An Ning, what was your reason? Why didn't you tell him?"
"Is someone from our Lu family forcing you? Or do you feel that the difference in your family background is too great, putting too much pressure on you?"
Tears dripped onto the table. An Ning raised her hand to wipe away the tears on her face. "Sister Qinghe, thank you for telling me this. I really can't hide it from you. It's not that I still love him, but I have always loved him, very much..."
She looked up at Lu Qinghe, her eyes misty with tears, "But there are so many obstacles between us, it's no longer something that can be solved with just 'love'."
She pulled the corners of her mouth and chuckled. Even if she told Lu Xiyan now that she loved him, Lu Xiyan would only sneer at her and would not believe a word she said.
"I've long..." An Ning felt a pain in her chest and choked with sobs, "I'm not worthy of his love."
"I really don't know what happened between you two, but I'm telling you this today only out of a sister's heartache for her brother." Lu Qinghe downed the wine in her glass in one gulp. "Whether you decide to never have anything to do with each other again, or to salvage that regrettable relationship, it's up to you to decide."
"I just want to say that he was always sincere to you. He has a strong sense of propriety. Apart from you, no one of the opposite sex has ever been around him." Lu Qinghe said, "He has had a hard time these past few years. If you still love him, you shouldn't let him down."
......
"Mr. Lu, I need you to review this document."
In the president's office, Jiang Yao handed over the documents.
The man was dressed in a black suit and had a noble temperament. He took the document, glanced at it, opened his pen and signed.
Outside the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, the sunset has completely disappeared into the sky.
Lu Xiyan glanced out the window, "Jiang Yao."
Jiang Yao closed the file and was about to leave when he heard the voice and immediately replied, "Boss Lu, do you have any instructions?"
Lu Xiyan retracted his gaze and said, "It's okay."
It was almost dark, she shouldn't be stupid enough to still be waiting downstairs.
"Okay, Mr. Lu."
Jiang Yao was about to leave when the cell phone in his pocket suddenly rang.
It's an internal company phone.
He quickly picked up the phone and asked in the next second, "How is he? Is he okay?"
Lu Xiyan suddenly glanced at him and saw him hang up the phone to report, "Mr. Lu, the front desk just said that a woman in the lobby had hypoglycemia while waiting for someone and fainted in the lobby. Now... Hey! Mr. Lu, where are you going?"
Before Jiang Yao could finish his words, he saw the man in front of him change his expression and stride out of the office. He hurriedly followed him, "Mr. Lu, wait for me!"
......
Lu Xiyan rushed to the elevator almost without thinking, quickly pressed the first floor button, his chest heaving violently.
Low blood sugar, fainted?
The hand hanging by his side suddenly tightened, the joints almost turning white from the force, Lu Xiyan pursed his thin lips, his eyes deep.
The elevator stopped on the first floor, and as soon as the door opened, he strode out.
As soon as I arrived at the lobby, I heard the sound of an ambulance at the door, and then it became farther and farther away.
Lu Xiyan only saw the ambulance leaving. His back suddenly stiffened, his eyes trembled, and he walked quickly to the front desk.
The person in charge at the front desk was dealing with an emergency. Seeing the man walking towards them, she was so frightened that she shouted, "Mr. Lu——"
"Did someone just faint from hypoglycemia?"
Without waiting for the person in charge to finish speaking, Lu Xiyan quickly asked, "What does he look like? How old does he look? Do you know his name? Is his surname An?"
He asked a lot of questions in one breath with a cold face, which scared the person in charge into thinking that he was here to accuse him. He was also wondering why this matter had alarmed President Lu?
Meeting the man's stern gaze, the person in charge stammered, "Boss Lu! A woman just fainted here from hypoglycemia. She's pregnant and looks to be in her twenties. I heard she's a family member of a sales employee. She came here to deliver something and suddenly suffered from hypoglycemia—"
Before the person in charge finished speaking, he saw the man seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, his frown relaxed, and his stern expression suddenly eased a lot.
Jiang Yao caught up and noticed the man's expression. He immediately realized what was happening and asked the person in charge, "Is there a lady named An in the lobby? Where is she?"
"Yes, Assistant Jiang," the receptionist quickly replied, "but Miss An has already left."
Hearing this, Jiang Yao suddenly felt a chilling gaze staring at him.
He turned his head stiffly and met Lu Xiyan's cold eyes.
"You're too talkative."
