Chapter 51 Never Accept Arranged Marriage
This was my first Waterloo in my life.
Jiang Yao still gave him face, "This dish tastes really good, Director Xie, you should try it too."
Although the price is expensive, the taste is indeed fresher and more delicious than other restaurants.
Xie Hao thought she was just comforting himself, but after taking two bites, he found that it tasted really good. His mood was really up and down.
He planned to regroup, "Just now we were talking about relationship issues. I wonder if Miss Jiang has anyone she likes right now!"
Jiang Yao paused what he was doing.
She knew she couldn't escape.
Through Xie Hao's caring and tentative behavior just now, she had guessed that he might be interested in her and wanted to go beyond the distance of friendship and take a further step.
She still told the truth: "No."
Xie Hao was delighted, thinking that his chance had come.
But the next second, Jiang Yao gave him another bitter smile.
"My last failed relationship dealt a huge blow to me. I think it will take some time for me to get over it, so I don't have any plans to fall in love at the moment."
This was already a polite refusal on her part.
The first half is a lie, but the last sentence is true.
She now wants to focus on her career, as well as to find out the truth of what happened that year and take revenge on those who deserve it.
I don’t have the confidence to start a new relationship at the moment.
Upon hearing this, Xie Hao's beautiful peach blossom eyes dimmed, and he felt a little disappointed.
However, people who have been hurt in love do need time to heal.
He still didn't want to give up so easily.
"I think a girl as outstanding as Miss Jiang will definitely meet a perfect partner. If someone doesn't know how to cherish you, it's that person's loss."
Xie Hao comforted her with a few words, but he didn't intend to continue to express his feelings.
"Thank you for the award, Director."
Jiang Yao smiled embarrassedly.
"I'm speaking from the heart." Xie Hao looked at her seriously, and then seemed to think of something important, "By the way, Miss Jiang, are you free this weekend?
You haven't met our boss yet, right? You've submitted all your new materials this time, and he's eager to meet a talented person like you."
After all, since Jiang Yao said so, even if he can't say it now, he has to find ways to interact with her more!
When Jiang Yao heard that he was going to meet the boss of Liheng Group, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.
According to rumors, this boss is extremely talented, has a sharp eye, but is also mysterious.
He has never appeared in financial news, and few people, except for a small number of collaborators, have ever seen his true face.
Naturally, she was very interested in having the opportunity to meet such a powerful figure.
"Of course, I'd be delighted to."
Xie Hao's casual smile returned to his face, "That's great."
After dinner, the two walked out of the restaurant, and Xie Hao said to the woman next to him in a gentlemanly manner.
"Miss Jiang, can I take you home?"
Jiang Yao quickly refused.
"No, it's still early. I have something to do later, so I won't bother thanking you, Director."
Xie Hao was slightly stunned.
Jiang Yao also felt that he had refused too quickly, and was afraid that he would be unhappy about it, so he took the initiative to talk about business.
"Thank you, Director. It's been a pleasure working with you. The success of this project is also thanks to you. I will redouble my efforts to improve the project and will not let you down."
Xie Hao chuckled, then realized that this was another subtle rejection from her.
Her eyes were bright and shining, without any hypocrisy, only sincerity and seriousness.
Xie Hao felt a little embarrassed when he was rejected, but he didn't feel angry at all.
He looked at the girl in front of him, and the admiration in his eyes became even stronger.
"Well, I believe in Miss Jiang's ability, but you don't have to be so polite in the future. Just call me by my name."
"Okay, you can just call me Jiang Yao. I'll be leaving first."
Jiang Yao waved at him and left quickly.
Looking at her leaving back, Xie Hao couldn't take his eyes off her for a long time.
His mind was full of thoughts and he was holding his breath the whole time.
He turned around and called Li Beiting.
"Brother, are you free tonight? If not, at least make some time. Since I've secured a big deal for you, come out and have a couple of drinks with me."
His tone was rarely depressed.
Li Beiting couldn't help but put down the pen in his hand and made a joke.
"Why, are you heartbroken?"
There was a strange silence on the other end of the phone.
After a moment, Xie Hao became a little angry and embarrassed.
"Are you coming or not?"
Now Li Beiting was really interested, "Come."
Half an hour later, in the private room of the Twilight Club.
"I'm so unlucky! That restaurant must be incompatible with me and it must have screwed me over, which is why I'm having trouble with my relationship!"
Xie Hao complained as he picked up the beer in his hand and drank it all in one gulp. His cheeks were already stained red.
The whole person looks depressed.
It is completely different from his previous carefree and unrestrained image.
"Okay, how long are you going to keep me drinking?"
Li Beiting leaned on the sofa, supporting his chin with one hand, looking lazy and casual.
"belch--"
Xie Hao held the bottle of wine, burped, and then continued drunkenly.
"You, you haven't seen how outstanding she is. Not only is she beautiful, smart, and has high emotional intelligence, but she can also really produce upgraded CM materials. Girls like this are really rare in the circle.
I... to be honest, I felt a little ashamed when I met her."
This was the first time he felt a sense of inferiority.
Li Beiting's eyes were serious. He picked up the red wine glass and took two sips, his tone nonchalant.
"For a woman, is it that serious?"
Seeing that he obviously had no interest in women, Xie Hao was so angry and hateful!
"You, you say it so lightly!
I tell you, it's not that I won't take revenge, it's just that the time hasn't come yet. When you find your destined calamity, you might be even crazier than me! "
After all, they are good brothers who have known each other for many years, and Xie Hao also knows that Li Beiting has been looking for the girl from his childhood.
I thought Li Beiting would retort.
Unexpectedly, when he heard this, Li Beiting lowered his eyes.
After thinking for a moment, he lowered his voice and spoke in a low tone.
"I met someone who was very similar to that little girl."
"What?"
Xie Hao's eyes suddenly widened and he became interested.
"How did you find out after so long without any clues?"
This is big news!
"The junior girl who is in the same major as me looks a lot like her when she was little."
It’s just, it’s just a resemblance.
Jiang Yao's face involuntarily appeared in my mind.
When Xie Hao heard this, he immediately became energetic.
"What do you mean by school girl? Is she your sweetheart?"
Li Nanting frowned, "You're looking for death."
But this attitude, no matter how you look at it, feels like an attempt to cover up something, making it even more obvious.
Xie Hao laughed when he saw this.
"It seems that it won't be long before you fall in love and suffer like me."
"But in this case, your family's marriage..."
