Chapter 26 The Secret That Cannot Be Told



Chu Tiance was a little surprised to receive Xiao Keke's invitation. He didn't want to go at first, but then he thought that Xiao Keke had been with Lan Zihan and she was actively preparing for a concert. Maybe she would ask him something, so he came to the appointment.

In the cafe, Xiao Keke originally chose a window seat, but Chu Tiance came over and felt that it was too conspicuous, so the two of them went to a private room.

"What do you want to talk to me about?" Chu Tiance ordered a cup of iced coffee and a cup of cappuccino for Xiao Keke, as well as some desserts. He didn't know Xiao Keke's taste, but he knew that Lan Zihan liked it, and he thought that her friends wouldn't dislike what she liked.

"You still love Xiao Han, right?" Xiao Keke glanced at the things Chu Tiance ordered and got straight to the point.

Chu Tiance held the coffee cup in his hand for a moment, then put it down. "No, maybe I never loved you."

"You're lying!" Xiao Keke stared at Chu Tiance fiercely.

Chu Tiance pulled the corner of his mouth and sneered, "Why do you say that?"

"You delivered the shoes to our door, didn't you? The promotional video was not filmed, and I think you canceled it because you saw Xiaohan had a stomachache during her period? Xiaohan is allergic to peanuts, and you quickly took out medicine from your pocket. I think you should always carry medicine with you."

Chu Tiance listened quietly.

"Also, you originally wanted to take us home that night, but Xi Yang got there first. I saw your car driving past. One time, Xiao Han came back and threw me a bank card, saying that you slept with her and gave her half a million. I thought you just wanted to help her and find a suitable excuse. Anyway, you had the first time before, so you didn't mind one more time."

Xiao Keke told her everything she knew in one breath, "These are all what I saw. There must be a lot more that I didn't see. But, Tiance, since you love her so much, why did you leave her? If you hadn't left her, Xiao Han wouldn't have to live so hard?!"

Chu Tiance thought he had concealed it well, but he didn't expect Lan Zihan's best friend to be so observant. He should have thought that Xiao Keke was a very smart and sensitive girl, unlike Lan Zihan, who was so dull.

"In this world, there are many things that you cannot decide on your own." Chu Tiance lowered his eyelids, feeling his heart tighten. He was born to be unable to make his own decisions. He only hoped to protect the woman he loved.

He loved her and only wanted her to live a good life, and he would be satisfied.

"Then you won't hurt her too badly, right? Last time at the nightclub, Xiaohan got drunk and kept saying to me, Coco, do you know how it feels to be heartbroken? You grew up with Xiaohan, so you should know her personality. She looks heartless, but she always keeps her thoughts to herself. No matter how sad she is, she has to bear it all by herself."

"If I tell her that I still love her but can't be with her, wouldn't that be a bigger harm to her? It's better to end it here. It's better to suffer a short pain than a long one."

"Why can't you be with her?" Xiao Keke asked the question again.

"This is a secret that can't be told." Chu Tiance held the coffee cup tightly.

"Well, I can understand people from wealthy families to some extent. Many things can't go as they wish. Just like..." Xiao Keke thought of this and didn't finish her words, "I won't ask anymore. There are many things that Xiaohan has been with you for 18 years and she hasn't figured out, so how can I figure them out?"

"I can tell you that I am the grandson of Chu Yaohua, the richest man in the world, and the future heir of the Di Chu Group." Chu Tiance said slowly.

Xiao Keke's eyes widened. Everyone thought that Chu Tiance was just an illegitimate child of Da Xi Guangzu, but no one thought that he was actually the grandson of the richest man in the world.

"Surprising, right? But also very sad, right? Tang Tang, the grandson of the richest man in the world, can't even live in his own home. It's okay to live in someone else's home, but he has to bear the stigma of being a illegitimate child." Chu Tiance sneered. There are too many things that are helpless in this world.

"Then you should be able to..."

"No, Keke, there are too many "can'ts" in my life. People from wealthy families can't make their own decisions about marriage. I can't say more to you. I have my own choices and my own helplessness. As long as she lives a good life, that's enough."

Chu Tiance's eyes became lonely. He didn't ask for anything, just that she could live a good life, nothing more.

"Keke..." Chu Tiance suddenly raised his head, his eyes lost their former indifference, replaced by tenderness and passion, "I love her more than my life, so I beg you to take good care of her and don't tell her that I still love her, so as not to make her even more sad." It was

the first time that Xiao Keke saw Chu Tiance's eyes like this, and it really made her doubt whether the person in front of her was the arrogant and cruel genius Mr. Chu. She nodded.

Chu Tiance retracted his gaze, "Is Xi Yang good to her? They should be fine." Chu Tiance's words sounded like a question, but it always sounded like a statement.

Xiao Keke opened his mouth, but no sound came out. Should he tell him about Xi Yang's situation?

In a relationship, whoever gives up on each other first will live a better life and will be less sad. In this case, let's not let him continue to be sad.

"Very good, Xi Yang is very obedient to Xiao Han, just like you, and they have always been very good." Xiao Keke replied.

Chu Tiance felt as if his heart was pierced by a needle. He clearly hoped that she would live a good life, but when he heard the news that she was doing well, he was still heartbroken.

"That's good."

"Keke, I want to ask you a favor." It was rare for Chu Tiance to be so humble.

"You tell me." Xiao Keke guessed that it must be something related to Lan Zihan.

"I will continue to protect her. I will not allow anyone or anything to hurt her, but I hope you can keep it a secret for me. I also hope that you can come to me if you have anything. I will do my best to help Xiaohan."

"Okay, I am her best friend and I hope she lives a good life. Since you said that you can't be with her in the end, I won't add trouble to her. I promise you."

"Thank you."

Chu Tiance paid the bill and left. Xiao Keke sat in the private room, feeling melancholy for a while. They all have too many things that they cannot control. In this case, it is better to stay away from them.

Sometimes Xiao Keke was really jealous, jealous that she had Chu Tiance by her side all the time, but at this moment, she felt so sorry for them, they were clearly in love, but couldn't be together.

One was desperately trying to hide his love, and the other was desperately trying to give up this love.
