Chapter 553 Hope Ignites
Chen Xiaohui said, "Forget it, if there's no hope, there's no disappointment. I think being alone is fine right now."
"Do you really think you're fine on your own? Then why are you still wearing someone else's ring?" Riemann couldn't help but expose her.
Chen Xiaohui subconsciously touched the ring hanging around her neck, her eyes flickering slightly.
“You’re just fooling yourself,” Riemann said.
Chen Xiaohui shook her head, not wanting to discuss the issue any further.
...
If Chen Xiaohui doesn't want to talk to her, then she'll go talk to Zhou Shen.
Li Man stopped Zhou Shen, who was about to leave work, and said that she was going to transfer him to the new store.
Zhou Shen hesitated for a moment, then said, "Can I not go?"
Zhou Shen's reaction was within Li Man's expectations, but she still asked, "Why don't you want to go to the new store? If you go to the new store, I will promote you to supervisor, in charge of the kitchen, and your salary will also increase."
Zhou Shen refused without hesitation, "Thank you, but I don't want to go. I think this place is fine. You should give this opportunity to someone else; they are more suitable than me."
Riemann stared at him and asked, "You don't want to go because of Xiaohui?"
A look of pain flashed across Zhou Shen's eyes. He lowered his gaze and said after a long while, "Even you can see it, so why can't she see my feelings for her?"
“It’s not that she can’t see it, it’s that she doesn’t dare!” Riemann said slowly.
Zhou Shen raised his eyes and asked urgently, "Why doesn't she dare?"
"Because she has been hurt, she is afraid to love again."
“I know she has been hurt, and I will treat her well, but she won’t give me any chance at all. She has also distanced herself from me and won’t even talk to me anymore.”
Zhou Shen gave a bitter smile. "Even if we can't be lovers, we can still be friends, but she won't even be willing to be friends with me."
"If she's treated you like this, what's the point of you staying by her side?"
Zhou Shen looked pained. "I can't let her go."
"Then you can wait patiently. Maybe she'll be moved by you."
If Zhou Shen can persist, Li Man believes that Chen Xiaohui will definitely accept him.
It remains to be seen how long Zhou Shen can hold out.
"Really? Is Xiaohui really willing to accept me?" Hope ignited in Zhou Shen's eyes.
"It depends on whether you have the patience and can persevere. It might take a year, or it might take several years. Are you sure you can wait that long?"
Chen Xiaohui had told him before that she would only consider her own personal life after An Xin got married.
But do we really have to wait that long?
Zhou Shen hesitated again.
Seeing Zhou Shen's hesitant expression, Li Man smiled and said nothing more. "Think it over carefully. I'll give you a month to consider whether you want to go to the new store."
“Okay, thank you, Manager Li. I will consider it,” Zhou Shen said.
"Then I'll wait for your news."
After saying that, Riemann turned and left.
After taking a few steps, she turned back and said, "Oh right, I forgot to tell you, Xiaohui has been wearing the ring you gave her all this time."
Li Man felt that she should tell Zhou Shen about this so that he would understand that Chen Xiaohui also had feelings for him.
Zhou Shen was stunned when he heard this. Hadn't he thrown the ring into the trash can? He hadn't expected Chen Xiaohui to pick it up. What did this mean?
This shows that she has feelings for him!
Zhou Shen trembled slightly with excitement, a smile spreading across his face. He said loudly, "Thank you, Manager Li. I can give you an answer now. I'm sure I won't go to the new store. You can find someone else."
