"Don't cry, don't cry." Lu Feng patted her back to comfort her. "You don't speak French, so you can find a translator. If you're feeling down, you can go shopping or something."
"I don't want to move, I don't want to do anything, I just miss you. My parents don't want me anymore, I have no home, I don't know where to go," Zhang Fengxia sobbed.
Lu Feng didn't know how to comfort her, so he just listened to her talk and called the hotel front desk to order some coffee and pastries. After they were brought up, Zhang Fengxia's emotions finally stabilized.
"Why didn't you contact me as soon as you landed?" Zhang Fengxia asked, sniffling as she sat there.
"There's a semiconductor expo here soon. I'm going to confirm the venue today. It starts the day after tomorrow," Lu Feng said to her.
Zhang Fengxia had been harboring a lot of grievances and had countless harsh words hidden in her heart, but now, facing this man, she couldn't utter a single harsh word, even though she had rehearsed the scene countless times in her mind. She just stared blankly at him.
After a long silence, he finally spoke: "I'm not that important to you. You're still concerned about the company's development."
Lu Feng didn't know how to respond to that. The relationship between the two of them had always been ambiguous. She was a nice girl, but unfortunately, it wasn't the right time for her.
"No matter what, so many people in the company depend on me for their livelihood, I hope you can understand." Lu Feng picked up his coffee and took a sip, trying to find a topic to talk about. "It's good that you're out here. You're very capable. If you want to start a business in other areas, I can support you. The international environment for Jiafeng isn't good right now. If you can find another way to establish a company abroad, that would be even better."
Zhang Fengxia remained silent, sitting quietly in the room. She picked up her coffee, took a sip, and said, "I almost let a woman sleep with me, just now."
"What?" Lu Feng was somewhat incredulous.
“I always thought I was open-minded and accepting of foreign ideas, but at that moment, my subconscious thought was, ‘Will you leave me?’” Zhang Fengxia looked up at Lu Feng, no longer wanting to remain ambiguous, and asked, “Do you want me?”
Lu Feng looked at her without speaking. This was a difficult question to answer, and no matter how high one's emotional intelligence was, it seemed inadequate at this moment.
Zhang Fengxia seemed to sense his predicament and continued to ask, "If I don't know Jiang Xiaoyan, or if Jiang Xiaoyan never appeared at all, would you still want me? I can't be inferior to Su Yourong, can I?"
“I want you!” Lu Feng replied, staring at her.
"Why, why did you meet her?" Zhang Fengxia stood up and paced back and forth like a child throwing a tantrum, looking extremely anxious. She choked out, "Without her, if it weren't for her..."
"Without her, I wouldn't exist!" Lu Feng said helplessly.
"She's not your mother!"
Lu Feng didn't know how to explain it to her, but if it weren't for Jiang Xiaoyan, he really wouldn't be here. He would have tried to go back then, and maybe he really would have.
"These past few days I've been trying to cut all ties with you. I even wanted to kneel down and beg you to let me go, but when I see you, I can't say a word. I'm like a mute. Did I owe you something in my past life?" Zhang Fengxia said, clutching her hair in anguish.
Lu Feng picked up his coffee and took a sip, unsure how to answer her.
"Do you like me?" Zhang Fengxia felt too much pain. She didn't want to go on like this anymore. She took a deep breath and said, "I'll ask you one last time. Will you marry me? If you say no, I'll leave now and never see you again in this life or the next."
Looking at her current state and hearing what she said, Lu Feng knew that she was only saying these things in hopes that he would tell her he wanted to marry her. He was afraid that she wouldn't be able to bear it if he really gave up hope.
The most painful love in the world is the love that one person imagines.
"Tell me! I just want an answer!"
Lu Feng looked at her and nodded. The next second, Zhang Fengxia's face lit up with joy, and she threw herself into Lu Feng's arms.
