Chapter 98 Confession
"you……"
Just when he was about to ask something, the office door was suddenly pushed open and a figure rushed in.
It’s Lu Qi!
Lu Qi was immediately shocked by the scene before him.
Then, his eyes fell on Su Xiao.
Why did she get here?
What are they two doing?
Su Xiao recognized Lu Qi and her expression immediately changed. She took the opportunity to say something to Yun Che and quickly ran out.
Lu Qi watched her hurriedly leave, then turned his gaze back to Yun Che and said awkwardly, "I'm sorry, I didn't know you were with her. I saw it was almost time to get off work, so I came to find you to go out for dinner."
Yun Che said nothing, staring at the door thoughtfully.
Lu Qi coughed twice and continued, "What were you talking about just now? Everyone seems very serious. Are you going to show your cards?"
Yun Che frowned, and a cold light flashed in his black eyes.
Lu Qi chuckled again, then turned serious and said, "After you left that day, a few of us were discussing and worrying about you. To be honest, I stand on Zhao Jiaying's side, and I'm really moved by everything she has done for you. Think about it, to have a woman who loves you so much must be a blessing that you've cultivated for several lifetimes!"
Yun Che remained silent, but he didn't stop Lu Qi from nagging.
Lu Qi couldn't help but become bolder, hoping to convince his good brother and break the current deadlock. Otherwise, when would this dilemma end? Besides, Yun Che was not an indecisive person.
"Zhao Jiaying would definitely not allow you to keep someone outside, and the Zhao family would definitely not agree. You really have to deal with it properly. Zhenbo and the others said you're facing unprecedented difficulties. Their original intention was not to hurt them, but I think you're hurting them if you drag it out like this. Do you think Zhao Jiaying will let Su Xiao go?"
"Do you also think that I should give up Su Xiao?" Yun Che asked unexpectedly.
Lu Qi was stunned and said, "Of course. Do you want to give up Zhao Jiaying? You and Zhao Jiaying have known each other for six years. You have been through so much together. How can Su Xiao compare to that?"
Lu Qi's eyes were filled with surprise and shock, as if saying that he was crazy.
Yes, no matter from which perspective, choosing Zhao Jiaying is the best option.
However……
"Let's go eat." Yun Che suddenly stood up, obviously dropping the previous topic.
Lu Qi was still puzzled, but seeing Yun Che had already walked out on his own, he had no choice but to follow.
After Su Xiao returned to the office, she was no longer able to concentrate on her work. After a while, when it was time to get off work, she quickly left the company and went to the place where Gao Chengze had agreed to meet.
This restaurant was actually the one Yun Che and Zhao Jiaying had eaten at last time!
Su Xiao happened to pass by the box at that time. She couldn't help but stop and stare at it for a moment before walking towards Gao Chengze's table.
"You don't look well. Are you okay?" Gao Chengze looked at her and asked first.
Su Xiao met his concerned look and smiled gratefully, "It's okay, maybe it's a little too sunny outside."
Gao Chengze was relieved and reminded her, "Next time you go out, remember to bring an umbrella. The sun is very strong at noon."
Su Xiao looked at him gratefully again and nodded to him.
Next, start ordering.
Gao Chengze asked Su Xiao what she wanted to eat. Su Xiao had no objection and said it was up to her. However, Gao Chengze still patiently discussed each item with her, showing his gentle and gentlemanly demeanor to the fullest.
The dishes were served and everyone ate and chatted. When they were almost done, Gao Chengze suddenly asked, "Su Xiao, are you in a relationship? Do you have a boyfriend?"
Su Xiao was stunned for a moment, and immediately thought of Yun Che, but then thought of Zhao Jiaying. Thinking of everything that had happened recently, she shook her head unconsciously, "Not yet."
Gao Chengze was overjoyed after hearing this, and his expression immediately became serious and sincere. He continued, "Su Xiao, I still really hope to date you. Can you be my girlfriend?"
Instantly, Su Xiao was stunned.
Gao Chengze continued seriously, "Over the past few years abroad, I've devoted myself to scientific research and have no interest in relationships. I think it's because I wanted to focus on my career and ignore everything else. Until I met you again, my heart, which had been suppressed, began to beat again. It turns out that I have always liked you and can't forget you!"
Su Xiao's head was buzzing, and she stared blankly at his fiery and sincere eyes, completely unable to think normally.
"I'm not young anymore. Since you're the one I've chosen, I want to date you. Let's get along well. If there's no problem, we can get married."
Such words are really touching, especially for Su Xiao.
She and Yun Che had been together for half a year, and Yun Che had never mentioned these things, and had not even clearly stated whether they were boyfriend and girlfriend.
Which woman doesn’t want to get married or be proposed to?
The same goes for her.
She once dreamed that Yun Che would propose to her.
Now, it's another person.
There is no doubt that Gao Chengze has excellent conditions. He is handsome, young and promising, and has a gentle personality. Most importantly, he treats her well and cares about her feelings. She sees a particularly burning and shining light in his eyes, which is the proof of love.
This is what many women dream of.
If it was the Su Xiao from back then who had maintained a clean relationship until now, she would definitely consider it carefully and give it a try.
But now, time has passed, and she is already entangled with Yun Che. She is simply unable to accept it, and is not qualified to bear such deep love from Gao Chengze.
"Senior, I'm sorry!" In the end, Su Xiao still refused to come out.
The scene is the same as three years ago.
After being rejected again, Gao Chengze was in a terrible mood.
However, after three years, his mind has become more mature, stronger and more stable.
He no longer turned away out of shame and embarrassment like he did three years ago. Instead, he suppressed his melancholy and said with a smile, "It's okay. Maybe I'm too impatient. Let's take it slow. Let's be friends first. You can make a decision after we get to know each other better. Maybe you'll fall in love with me."
"Senior..." Su Xiao didn't know what to say. She was really touched and felt very guilty.
"I understand that relationships can't be one-sided. Don't worry, I have a year. And I told you the day before yesterday that I plan to return to China to develop my career. I might stay here for the rest of my life. If one year doesn't work, then two years. If two years doesn't work, then three. I believe you'll always be moved by me. As long as you don't have someone in your heart, I have confidence."
She has someone in her heart!
Unfortunately, I was too careless just now and didn't think too much about it. I just told him that I didn't have a boyfriend yet. If I explain it again now, will he think too much and think that I did it on purpose?
Moreover, Su Xiao was worried that he would investigate. If he found out about her relationship with Yun Che, the consequences would be beyond her imagination and prediction.
At the same time, in another part of the restaurant, Yun Che and Lu Qi, who happened to be eating here, had already noticed this place.
Yun Che had originally just randomly found a restaurant to eat at, but he didn't expect to run into Su Xiao and Gao Chengze. Although he had guessed in advance that she must have made an appointment with Gao Chengze at noon, he still felt different when he actually saw them at this moment.
His usually calm and shrewd mind immediately went blank.
