Chapter 657 Let’s Separate
As Jiang Yuanliang listened to Ni Man's words, that gentle face appeared in his mind.
Shen Jingjing?
"Brother Yuanliang."
Jiang Yuanliang came back to his senses and looked at Ni Man. Ni Man hesitated for a moment and said, "The last time we met was a month ago, right?"
Jiang Yuanliang nodded. The group was very busy at the end of the year. He didn't even have time to attend the opening of the Ni Man brand store. He just sent an opening gift and a flower basket and asked his assistant to make a trip.
Ni Man also understood this very well. Jiangdong Group is the leading group in the entire China, and she has known for a long time that Jiang Yuanliang is busy.
"Yes." Jiang Yuanliang said, "The New Year is coming soon, and my old man wants to have some fun at home, so I said I would come to pick you up. Let's go to his house for dinner today."
Ni Man looked at Jiang Yuanliang and was actually a little absent-minded.
He is really charming, handsome, and capable. It is no exaggeration to say that he is the most perfect man I have ever met in my lifetime.
But he was too perfect, which often made her feel dazed. She never really felt that he belonged to her.
Even though the distance between the two of them was less than half a meter at this moment, the feeling of being so close yet so far still existed.
"Brother Yuanliang, I have something to tell you." Ni Man pulled herself out of her emotions and tried to remain calm. "Actually, I wanted to tell you this just now on the phone, but then I thought it would be more formal to say it in person."
Jiang Yuanliang looked at her, waiting for her to speak.
Ni Man paused. In fact, she had already made up her mind, but it was still difficult to say it out loud.
She pursed her lips and finally said softly, "I think we should separate."
A trace of reluctance slid across my heart as these words fell to the ground.
But it was fleeting. Ni Man raised her head and smiled, then repeated, "I think we should break up."
Jiang Yuanliang's expression did not show any particular emotional fluctuations. He still looked at Ni Man quietly. He knew that Ni Man had not finished speaking.
"Actually, I knew from the beginning that you chose me to give Uncle Jiang an explanation. You were willing to date me because you thought I was a person with no desires and was suitable for marriage, right?"
"You probably don't really like me, but I'm also very grateful for the care and responsibility you've shown me during this time. At first, even receiving a message from you would make me happy all day long."
"I thought I was acting this way because I liked you, but later I realized it wasn't the case. I was feeling empty, a void in my soul. So after being with you, you took up most of my life. I didn't have a job and barely had any social life. Apart from some daily routines, you were the only thing in my life, so I was acting this way."
"Of course, I still like you, but my liking for you is the kind of liking that comes from admiring a strong person. I look up to you and I worship you!"
"But after I started to pick myself up and regroup to start a new career, the emotional reactions I had from you gradually subsided. The focus of my life began to shift towards myself, and once it completely shifted, I felt like I had found myself."
"I don't think I will marry you. I still have my own things to do. I remembered the original reason why I studied design. I want to realize my own ideal."
"So, Brother Yuanliang, let's separate!"
She said the last sentence with relief and determination.
After hearing what Ni Man said, Jiang Yuanliang's first reaction was relief.
Because Ni Man was right, he didn't seem to have the kind of love between men and women for Ni Man, they just felt that it was suitable and they were together.
Thinking about it now, this is really unfair to Ni Man.
"I'm sorry, I think I should feel guilty towards you." Faced with Ni Man's frankness, Jiang Yuanliang did not pretend to be profound.
Ni Man still smiled and shook her head gently: "Actually, it's not necessary, because I was willing at the beginning, but now I don't want to anymore. Everything is my own choice."
"Sister Man, a customer is looking for you." At this time, the clerk walked to the door and whispered, and while speaking, he couldn't help but subconsciously glanced at the man in front of Ni Man.
Who is this person?
Jiang Yuanliang?
Ni Man nodded, then said to Jiang Yuanliang, "So today I'm going to have to trouble you. You have to face Uncle Jiang's troubles alone again."
Jiang Yuanliang smiled: "I'm used to it. Then you can go ahead and do your work first? You can always come to me if you encounter anything in the future, okay?"
Ni Man did not refuse, but when they were about to part, she suddenly looked at Jiang Yuanliang and asked, "Brother Yuanliang, have you ever liked women?"
Jiang Yuanliang was stunned, and a face subconsciously appeared in his mind.
Ni Man smiled and shook her head. "I don't mean anything else. I'm just curious if Uncle Jiang doesn't urge you, are you planning to stay single for the rest of your life? In two years, you'll be forty. If there's someone you like, seize the moment. If the person you're pursuing is you, I don't think anyone can resist."
After leaving these words, Ni Man turned and went into the store.
Jiang Yuanliang paused for a moment, then turned and left.
"Qingyu Villa", Jiang's residence.
As soon as Jiang Yuanliang arrived, the old housekeeper Feng Shu came out to greet him: "Second Master, you are back."
Uncle Feng even peeked into the back seat and asked doubtfully, "Where's Miss Ni?"
"She didn't come." Jiang Yuanliang responded and asked, "Where's the old man?"
"He's drinking tea in the living room. The eldest and third masters are here too."
Entering the living room, an antique gramophone was playing "Henan Opera Excerpts", which no one in the Jiang family could understand except the old man.
"Brother, you're back!"
Jiang Yuanyu, the third son of the Jiang family, was the first to greet Jiang Yuanliang when he saw him enter. He blurted out the same question as Uncle Feng: "Hey? Where's Sister Ni Man?"
Jiang Yuanliang glanced at him and asked, "Where's your new girlfriend?"
Jiang Yuanyu deflated and was speechless for a moment.
On the sofa, the eldest brother Jiang Yuanmao was massaging Old Man Jiang's legs. Seeing his younger brother coming, he greeted him, "Sit down for a while. We'll have dinner when your sister-in-law and Jiang Cheng arrive."
Jiang Yuanliang nodded, walked to the sofa and sat down, looking at the old man. Before he could speak, the old man preemptively said, "You're not bringing her back. Don't tell me you and Ni Man broke up again?"
The old man is eighty years old this year, wearing a neat and clean Zhongshan suit. Although he is old, the majesty and momentum he brought when he worked hard in the business world in his early years and built Jiangdong Group into the leading group in China is still there.
Everyone in the family is afraid of him.
Except Jiang Yuanliang.
However, the old man was old, and Jiang Yuanliang didn't want him to get angry and hurt his body, so he listened to him most of the time. At the old man's urging, he also tried to get in touch with several women, and Ni Man was the one who lasted the longest.
Jiang Yuanliang answered the question irrelevantly. He watched his eldest brother massaging the old man's legs and said, "Dad, you need to move more every day. Only by moving can you keep your body active and strong."
As a result, the old man looked at him and sneered: "Damn it, it's good enough that I can wake up at my age, and you still want me to move?"
My dears, the last two days of the month will double the monthly tickets. One vote counts as two. Those of you who still have monthly tickets, remember to vote. The monthly tickets will be cleared at the end of the last day, so don’t waste them.
