Jiang Xiaoling forced a smile: "Ms. Liu, Mr. Xu and I really have nothing going on. If you're worried, I can talk to him and make things clear."
"No need, you know his heart is with you."
His heart is with you.
One sentence brought Jiang Xiaoling back to reality. It wasn't that she didn't know Xu Yi's thoughts, but she had simply turned a blind eye, or perhaps she simply didn't want to think about their relationship in detail.
Liu Yunqi's tone became more serious: "It was Fu Hange who got you into the company. I think a person should learn to be grateful first and not covet things that don't belong to them, right?"
When Jiang Xiaoling heard this question, she felt a sense of irony.
Yes, she still remembers that it was Fu Hange who introduced her to the company, but Fu Hange has been gone for so long and she hasn't even gone to greet her or inquired about her whereabouts.
Fu Hange treated her so well before, how come she didn't know how to be grateful? Now she even asks her questions, it's really laughable!
“Miss Liu, I think people’s thoughts cannot be constrained. How a person thinks is not determined by others. What he chooses or does is not for others to judge or interfere with.”
This was her response to Liu Yunqi.
On the surface, he appeared calm and collected, but in reality, he was cursing her in secret.
Liu Yunqi seemed not to understand and tilted her head to ask, "What are you saying?"
Jiang Xiaoling remained silent with a smile throughout.
In the end, Liu Yunqi was so angry that she left.
Jiang Xiaoling sat down, feeling incredibly tired, both physically and mentally exhausted.
Xu Yi arrived shortly after; the two people I least wanted to see had bumped into each other today.
Xu Yi pushed the door open and entered, and Jiang Xiaoling quickly hid inside.
Unexpectedly, Xu Yi grabbed her hand first, causing her to stumble and bump into his arms.
With a faint fragrance, it swirled around Jiang Xiaoling's nose.
Jiang Xiaoling didn't move, letting him hold her like that. Perhaps this was the last time they would be so intimate.
After a long silence, Xu Yi asked in a sexy voice, "What did she say to you?"
Jiang Xiaoling closed her eyes and said, word by word, "You've seen it too, everyone thinks we're not a good match."
She paused for a moment and then said, "So, don't bother me anymore."
"Then listen to me carefully, I will never bother you again, not even if you beg on your knees!"
He seemed extremely angry, his eyes bloodshot as he cursed.
My whole body was trembling, my emotions were at their peak, like a fuse about to explode.
But he didn't leave immediately, keeping his eyes fixed on Jiang Xiaoling, as if he were expecting something.
But Jiang Xiaoling kept her head down the whole time, showing no emotion whatsoever.
Xu Yi had lost all reason. Shaking Jiang Xiaoling's shoulders, he said, "I don't even want a woman like you!"
Then he strode away, taking with him his scent.
Jiang Xiaoling squatted down on the cold floor, feeling an indescribable sadness in her heart.
The tears I'd held back for so long finally fell. The emotions I'd suppressed for so long finally crumbled completely.
Her feigned indifference eventually fooled everyone, including Xu Yi. But she couldn't fool herself.
She still cared about him.
That night, after hearing that he and Liu Yunqi were getting married, she couldn't sleep well all night. Every time she saw Xu Yi, she instinctively wanted to avoid him because she was afraid he would see through her disguise.
I thought I didn't care, but in the end, I did care so much.
She really cared when he said those words today.
