Chapter 469 I came at a bad time
In the end, Xia Tian politely declined Chang Bin.
Although he is a bit of a scoundrel, Chang Bin and he are also gentlemen friends, so it is definitely impossible for him to work for free.
Moreover, his major was not suitable, and Chayu did not find any job that was particularly suitable for him. The most important thing was that as the president of the Student Union, he had to do a lot of work related to the Student Union besides teaching in school.
It is definitely impossible for him to work wholeheartedly, not to mention that his original intention was to come for Feng Niannian.
If you recruit such an employee and then he doesn't want to do the job anymore or fails to handle certain tasks well, both parties will be in an awkward situation.
After saying goodbye to Chang Bin, Xia Tian walked out of the building.
As a result, as soon as I came out, I saw Shen Lexi standing at the flower bed downstairs, lifting the flower pot on her toes from time to time, looking very bored.
Xia Tian frowned slightly, realizing that Shen Lexi might be waiting for him.
Just when he was hesitating whether to say hello, Shen Lexi seemed to notice that he had come out and suddenly raised her head.
When Shen Lexi saw Xia Tian, a bright smile immediately appeared on her pretty face. She waved at Xia Tian:
"summer!"
Xia Tian saw that he couldn't hide away, so he had no choice but to walk over and asked, "What's wrong?"
"How are your Chayu and Xiaoyu's Yiye Chuxia doing now? I haven't cared about them for a long time."
“It’s OK. Chayu has already received investment before the New Year. We will increase publicity and promotion during this period. The first batch of branches outside the province are already in the process of selecting sites. After another two or three months of development, we will open the franchise channel.
Under the operation of Ye Ningyu and Lu Xi, the cake shop has now opened branches. It also supplies desserts to other milk tea shops and coffee shops separately. The prospects for the future are still very promising. ”
Chen Lexi rarely asks serious questions, and Xia Tian answered very seriously this time.
After hearing Xia Tian’s answer, Shen Lexi nodded: “That’s good!”
"You are going home for the New Year this time. Your father should let you inherit the family business, right?"
"ah?"
Shen Lexi was stunned for a moment. In fact, she was just concerned about whether the funds she asked her father to give to Xia Tian were really in place.
In order to prevent Xia Tian from thinking too much, she simply nodded: "Oh, yes, he asked me to stay with him after graduation and learn how to manage a company..."
At this point, Shen Lexi changed the subject: "But I don't want to inherit it at all. He has such a big company, I don't think I have the ability to manage it well. I don't have any skills. I only know how to spend money, not make money.
If my father really dared to hand over such a big company to me, I would probably lose it all very quickly. ”
Shen Lexi said with a smile, looking very relaxed.
Xia Tian could see that she really had no intention of accepting Shen Gaofeng’s company.
Then, Xia Tian remembered that when he went to Hanzhong, Chen Lexi gave him and Xiao Ye a watch.
"By the way, I will transfer the money you gave me and Xiaoye the watches for the New Year to you, and you give me a bank account."
"Xia Tian, what do you mean?"
Hearing Xia Tian's words, Shen Lexi's face instantly darkened.
"It's fine if Xiao Ye and Lu Xi don't know him, but I do. Rolex and Patek Philippe both cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. What you gave me is too expensive."
"A few hundred thousand is a few hundred thousand, so what? Anyway, you are not allowed to give me money. In the future, no matter what I give you, you are not allowed to mention giving me money. This is a gift between friends!"
As she spoke, Shen Lexi's tone became noticeably heavier.
She looked as if she was angry.
"Friends can't give each other such expensive things. If you don't want it, I will give you something of equal value."
"summer!"
Shen Lexi finally couldn't help it and shouted loudly, tears already welling up in her eyes.
"I really regard Xiaoyu and Xiaolu as good friends. I admit that I like you, but I have thought it through. This love will not have any result, so I plan to bury it deep in my heart.
My liking for you does not require your response or statement. Liking you is my own business and has nothing to do with you!
Don't always think that whatever I give you is based on this love. Besides being the boy I like, you are also the boyfriend of my good friend. Is there anything wrong with me giving you things? ”
Xia Tian opened his mouth, looking a little stunned, and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Chen Lexi wiped her tears with the back of her hand and continued with a stubborn expression: "I don't have anything to show for myself, and I only have money.
If money can buy happiness for my good friends, I will spend money without hesitation, no matter how much it is... So, can you please stop mentioning giving me money in the future?
This just makes me feel that you are humiliating me. If I can't get love, don't I deserve friendship either? ”
Shen Lexi’s words caused Xia Tian to fall into deep silence.
He reviewed the period from before the Chinese New Year to now, as well as the trip to Hanzhong during the Chinese New Year.
Chen Lexi's attitude towards him had indeed become much more restrained, and she was no longer as blatant as before when she had the chance to be alone with him.
More often than not, she was expressing some admiration for him while expressing kindness to Ye Ningyu and Lu Xi.
Xia Tian realized that as Chen Lexi valued her friendship with Ye Ningyu more and more, she became more and more entangled. She must be feeling very complicated and painful inside.
Looking at Chen Lexi's tearful eyes, Xia Tian finally felt a little guilty.
His thoughts and actions this time might have really hurt Shen Lexi.
"I'm sorry, I'm too sensitive."
"You don't need to apologize. It was my wishful thinking. I fell in love with you, someone I shouldn't have liked."
Shen Lexi wiped away her tears. She clearly wanted to cry, but she forced herself to hold back the tears.
Then, both of them fell into silence.
After a while, Shen Lexi pursed her lips and spoke again: “Don’t worry, I won’t pester you like before. I know that your feelings for Xiaoyu are getting deeper and deeper, and my presence will only make you feel embarrassed.
I also know very well that if I didn't have such a good relationship with Xiaoyu, with your personality you would never be friends with me, and you would not even be willing to say a word to me. You are a man who can give your girlfriend absolute sense of security. ”
Summer is silent.
He had clearly rejected Shen Lexi many times, and she had long understood his position.
"From now on, I will try my best to go to Xiaoyu when you are not around, and I won't make it difficult for you."
After Shen Lexi finished speaking, she turned around and left, leaving Xia Tian with only a stubborn back.
Her long hair fluttered in the wind, like a wounded but still strong heart.
Xia Tian looked at her leaving back, and an indescribable emotion surged in his heart.
He knew that Shen Lexi was a good girl, and her strength and kindness were worth cherishing.
However, the person who should cherish this strength and kindness will definitely not be him.
It definitely can't be him!
Xia Tian's heart has long been filled with Ye Ningyu, and there is no room for anyone else.
He knew that his rejection of Shen Lexi might hurt her, but he couldn't deceive his feelings because of it.
.......
After Shen Lexi disappeared around the corner, she finally couldn't help but squatted down, hugged her knees and cried.
In the eyes of others, she is a lofty ice goddess and a proud school belle, but in Xia Tian's eyes, she will always be nothing.
"Xia Tian, I know it's not your fault...but, but I just fell in love with you. If I knew you had a girlfriend the first time I saw you, maybe I wouldn't be like this now."
"If you want to blame someone, just blame me for coming at the wrong time..."
