The two sat opposite each other and in the end no one continued talking.
The night in the ancient city is gentle, like a layer of gauze gently covering this city full of stories.
Ning Nanxue and Jiang Tingchen walked side by side on the streets of the ancient city, feeling the unique charm of this city.
The two came to a secluded ferry. The river was quiet, reflecting the lights of the ancient city, sparkling and beautiful.
Jiang Tingchen stopped and turned to face Ning Nanxue, his eyes gentle and affectionate.
"Xue'er, I have something to say to you." Jiang Tingchen's voice was low and gentle, with a hint of imperceptible nervousness.
Ning Nanxue raised her head and looked into Jiang Tingchen's deep eyes. A strange feeling welled up in her heart. She nodded, signaling Jiang Tingchen to continue.
"Xue'er, I'm sorry. Maybe these words are a bit abrupt, but I really don't want to wait any longer." Jiang Tingchen took a deep breath and finally said what he had buried in his heart for many years. "Ever since college, I have been silently paying attention to you and liking you. Your every smile, every move, are deeply imprinted in my mind."
A hint of surprise flashed in Ning Nanxue's eyes.
She looked at Jiang Tingchen's sincere eyes, and a warm feeling surged in her heart.
"I know you've been through a lot of pain and suffering, and I've always felt sorry for you." Jiang Tingchen continued, "I hope to be by your side, to protect you, to take care of you, so that you never suffer any harm again."
Ning Nanxue's eyes were slightly moist, and she lowered her head shyly.
"Xue'er, I know you're hell-bent on revenge and want to make those who hurt you pay the price," Jiang Tingchen said. "I respect your choice and I will fully support you. But I hope you understand that no matter what happens, I will always stand by you."
"Xue'er, I know that confessing my feelings to you now may add burden to you." Jiang Tingchen said, "But I don't want to hide my feelings anymore. I hope you can understand my feelings, and I hope you can give me a chance to take care of you, accompany you, and walk through every day of the future together."
Ning Nanxue's heart was completely moved by Jiang Tingchen's deep affection.
She looked at Jiang Tingchen's sincere eyes and could no longer suppress her inner emotions.
"Senior, actually... I like you too." Ning Nanxue's voice was trembling, but full of determination. "I have seen and remembered all the kindness you have shown me these days. I admit that I have fallen in love with you."
A hint of surprise flashed in Jiang Tingchen's eyes.
He excitedly held Ning Nanxue's hand and said, "Xue'er, you...are you serious? Do you really like me?"
"Yeah." Ning Nanxue nodded, a happy smile on her face. "Senior, I like you not because of what you have done for me, but because you are you, the gentle, considerate and understanding Jiang Tingchen."
Jiang Tingchen could no longer suppress his inner excitement. He pulled Ning Nanxue into his arms and hugged her tightly, as if he wanted to merge her into his body.
"Xue'er, I love you." Jiang Tingchen said affectionately in Ning Nanxue's ear, "I will love you forever, protect you, and make you the happiest woman in the world."
Ning Nanxue snuggled in Jiang Tingchen's arms, feeling his warmth and heartbeat, her heart filled with happiness and sweetness.
She closed her eyes and enjoyed this rare moment of happiness.
After a long time, Jiang Tingchen reluctantly let go of Ning Nanxue. He held Ning Nanxue's face, looked at her affectionately, then slowly lowered his head and kissed her lips.
Ning Nanxue did not refuse. She closed her eyes and responded to Jiang Tingchen's kiss.
Their lips were pressed tightly together, as if they wanted to merge each other's souls into one.
This kiss was passionate and full of affection and love.
The two seemed to have forgotten time and everything around them, and were only immersed in this sweet kiss.
Thanks to the joint efforts of Ning Nanxue and Jiang Tingchen, Huayun Group's project is progressing very smoothly.
Ning Nanxue's name has once again become the focus of heated discussion in the business community.
All major media outlets rushed to report on Ning Nanxue's success, and the praise was endless. Ning Nanxue's reputation soared to new heights.
Fu Chen, on the other hand, was playing news reports about Ning Nanxue on a loop in his office.
He looked at Ning Nanxue's confident smile on the screen, feeling mixed emotions.
Xu Zhiru walked to Fu Chen, hugged him gently, and said softly: "Ah Chen, you haven't been in a good state recently. What's wrong?"
Fu Chen didn't say anything, just turned off the computer and silently hugged Xu Zhiru.
Xu Zhiru noticed something strange about Fu Chen and became alert.
Ning Nanxue has always been a thorn in Fu Chen's heart, and she must find a way to completely remove this thorn.
The next morning, Xu Zhao rushed to Fu Chen's villa.
"Sister, how are you and Fu Chen doing lately?" Xu Zhao found Xu Zhiru and asked, "I heard that Ning Nanxue has been very popular recently."
"Hmph, she won't be so proud for long." Xu Zhiru sneered and said, "I won't let her have it easy."
"Sister, what are your plans?" Xu Zhao asked, "Do you need my help?"
"You?" Xu Zhiru thought about the previous events, glanced at Xu Zhao casually, and said, "How can you help? Just don't cause me any trouble."
"Sister, don't underestimate me." Xu Zhao said, "Although I don't have much ability, I still have a way to deal with Ning Nanxue."
"Oh? Do you have any ideas?" Xu Zhiru asked.
"Well..." Xu Zhao smiled mysteriously and said, "You'll know when the time comes."
In the Fu family's old house, Fu's mother was sitting alone in the living room, looking through old photos.
In the photo, Ning Nanxue is holding Sui Sui and smiling happily.
Mother Fu looked at the photo and couldn't help but shed tears.
There was news about Ning Nanxue on TV. She was so successful now. If she hadn't gotten divorced, would the Fu Group have already been at the top of the industry?
Xu Zhiru was that sickly girl, and Fu Chen protected her, but they didn't even have a child!
Thinking of Sui Sui's cuteness, her heart was filled with regret.
"Nanxue, I'm sorry." Mother Fu said with a sob, "If I hadn't been so stubborn, you and Chen wouldn't have ended up like this."
Mother Fu wiped her tears and put the photo back into the drawer.
She decided to find an opportunity to apologize to Ning Nanxue and ask her to help the Fu Group.
Secretary Chen secretly observed the changes in the situation and had his own plans in mind.
As expected, he was right. Fu Chen's situation was hopeless, and Ning Nanxue was his hope for the future.
"Boss Ning, this is the latest information on the Huayun Group." Secretary Chen handed a document to Ning Nanxue and said, "I have followed your instructions and have found out everything about the Fu Group."
"Very good." Ning Nanxue replied with satisfaction after receiving the documents, "Secretary Chen, you did a great job."
"Mr. Ning, you're too kind," Secretary Chen said modestly. "It's my honor to be able to serve you."
The trip to the ancient city ended, Ning Nanxue and Jiang Tingchen returned hand in hand, ready to face new challenges.
