Chapter 225 That Person Can Only Be Her
"So it turns out that people can change. Even a jealous person can become so generous?"
"Sister Min, please stop making fun of me."
Only then did Xu Ge realize that he had made quite a few jokes in the past, and he thought he had hidden it well enough, but he didn't expect that people had already seen through his thoughts.
Chu Min just smiled when he heard that, and raised his chin to look at the door of the reception room.
"Aren't you curious at all about what the two of them are talking about?"
Xu Ge simply said, "What does it have to do with me?"
Chu Min was rarely choked by her, "What if they are talking about you, won't you be jealous?"
Xu Ge was even more helpless when he heard this: "Sister Min, I was young and naive before, but now I am an adult. Can I still be ignorant and jealous?"
Chu Min smiled and said, "That's true. In the past, you would have been as frightened as if you were facing a formidable enemy if there was even a female mosquito around Mr. Zhou..."
Xu Ge coughed several times immediately, "Don't worry, even if a group of female mosquitoes eat him, I will remain calm."
Chu Min glared at her and whispered, "I guess she was stimulated by the news that you were getting married."
Xu Ge narrowed his eyes, "Sister Min, tell me the truth. I've been away for a few years now, and Miss Chi and my uncle really..."
Before she could finish her words, Chu Min quickly shook her head. "I can swear to God that President Zhou has always been kind and polite to Miss Chi. I know there must be some rumors out there, but the two of them are really just friends."
Seeing her like this, Xu Ge couldn't help but sigh and said, "I didn't say anything."
Chu Min looked at her helplessly, "I'm afraid you might misunderstand me, but I still have to tell you something. In the four years since you left, Mr. Zhou really hasn't had anyone of the opposite sex around him, let alone someone he's been romantically involved with."
Xu Ge continued to jokingly ask, "How can you be so sure?"
"Mr. Zhou spends most of his time at the company. Apart from going out to dinner with clients, he rarely even attends drinking parties. Even if he does, I am his companion. There is really not even a female mosquito around Mr. Zhou."
After that, Chu Min continued, "As for Zhong Yaxuan, those were all made up by entertainment reporters to attract attention. Miss Zhong is a celebrity, and the scandal will only bring her attention. President Zhou doesn't really care. After all, you shouldn't bully your friend's wife, right?"
Xu Ge saw that she was getting more and more serious as she spoke, making himself seem quite frivolous.
"Sister Min, I'm a little hungry. Do you have any cake? I want to eat it."
Chu Min couldn't help but glared at her when she heard that. "How dare you ask for a cake? The company can't even find a sugar cube right now!"
Xu Ge: “…” I’m sorry!
At this moment, Chi Yan in the reception room couldn't help but express her feelings to Zhou Chen.
But what he got in return was Zhou Chen's long silence.
Chi Yan clenched her palms nervously, her eyes fixed on the silent person.
"Achen, am I too late to say this? I didn't dare to say it before because I felt that my legs were not worthy of you and I didn't want people to gossip about me. But now I'm fine. I can stand up and I can be with you. Can you reconsider our relationship?"
Zhou Chen then looked up at her, his tone more serious and cold than ever before.
"Chi Yan, I always thought we were close friends."
Ji Yan couldn't deny that they were confidants, but she didn't want to be just friends and confidants.
"But Achen, you should have seen my feelings for you a long time ago."
Zhou Chen just said "I'm sorry" to dispel all her affection.
"Sorry? I don't want your apology. I just don't understand why you chose her? You clearly didn't plan this way before. You knew what you would face if you were together, and you also knew that your relationship with her would be criticized and gossiped about. So, Achen, calm down and don't be impulsive."
"The word impulsive doesn't suit me." Zhou Chen said lightly.
Chi Yan was stunned. "Then why did you suddenly make such a decision?"
Zhou Chen's eyes were dark and unpredictable. "Suddenly? How come you don't know that this might have been planned for a long time?"
"What, what?" Chi Yan seemed to be unable to believe her ears, but also looked confused and puzzled. "What do you mean by long-planned?"
"Chi Yan, we are not suitable. Don't waste your feelings on me."
Chi Yan's tears flowed. "Okay, didn't you find me just to make her give up? Why did you make things like this?"
Zhou Chen's eyes grew darker, "Because this is the only way."
He could get everything back on track before things got out of hand, but that wasn't possible now.
Chi Yan bit her red lips tightly, her eyes flickering, knowing that no matter what she said, she couldn't change his mind.
"The Zhou family will not agree with you."
Chi Yan took a step forward as if unwilling and grabbed his wrist.
"Achen, after all these years, have you really never been moved by me? Do you want to be with me? I don't believe it!"
Zhou Chen's features were dull, even cold and emotionless.
"Chi Yan, I'm a very stingy person. I won't give the same love and care to another person."
These were the words that hit Ji Yan the most. She shook her head and stepped back.
"Can that person only be her?"
Zhou Chen curled his thin lips slightly, and the words he said were so calm that it was suffocating.
"After all, I am still a businessman. I pay attention to returns when doing things. Since I gave it to her, I naturally have to get the due return. I am such a stingy person that I will not spend the same time and energy on her again.
Be nice to a woman again."
Chi Yan understood what he meant. He had been emotionally invested in Xu Ge for more than ten years and he would not let go.
He only wanted her.
She raised her hand to wipe away her tears, turned around and left with red eyes.
Outside, Xu Ge and Chu Min were watching a funny video. Suddenly, they heard a sound and looked over.
Seeing Chi Yan's tearful face, they couldn't help but look at each other.
Chi Yan stopped after walking a few steps and looked at Xu Ge as if she couldn't help it.
Xu Ge raised his eyebrows and slowly stood up, "Miss Chi, do you have something to say to me?"
For the first time, Chi Yan lost control and looked at her with some resentment, "Are you very proud?"
Xu Ge narrowed his eyes and said nothing.
Chi Yan clenched her fists. "Do you think you won? Do you think you can be together happily in the future?"
Xu Ge still didn't say anything, and looked at her calmly and even coolly, jealous, envious, and crazy like a madman!
Chi Yan seemed to want to say something, but Zhou Chen's low and indifferent voice came from behind her.
"Secretary Chu, take Miss Chi downstairs."
Chi Yan's face turned pale and the mist in her eyes gathered again, but she still stared at Xu Ge unwillingly.
I was irritated by her indifference.
"You're just lucky."
Chu Min frowned and quickly stepped forward and made a gesture to invite someone in.
"Ms. Chi, please come with me."
After watching the person leave, Xu Ge turned to look at Zhou Chen, who was also looking at her.
"How did you provoke her?"
"So it turns out that people can change. Even a jealous person can become so generous?"
"Sister Min, please stop making fun of me."
Only then did Xu Ge realize that he had made quite a few jokes in the past, and he thought he had hidden it well enough, but he didn't expect that people had already seen through his thoughts.
