He's so abnormal.
It turns out that she wasn't overthinking it! His words and actions were so abnormal.
Three more days passed. Yue Lanjing did not show up during these three days, but she would call her at night to ask about her health. However, each conversation would not exceed five sentences, just like a routine!
His transformation is like suddenly going from a scorching summer to a slightly chilly early winter. How can one not find it strange?
But when she asked him what was wrong, he always said it was nothing and told her not to think too much. Was she imagining things? It was obvious that he was avoiding her!
She didn't intend to let him avoid her any longer, so she decided to go to the company to see if he was really so busy that he didn't even have time to see her!
I met an unexpected person in the company, that was Huang Ying!
"Why is she here?" Asahiro asked out of pure curiosity.
To be honest, she used to think of Huang Ying as just an ordinary passerby, but after Huang Ying sent her to the hospital, she began to wonder what kind of person she was.
"She is my secretary now!"
"Why did you hire her as your secretary?" In her impression, Yue Lanjing should hate Huang Ying very much!
"He is talented and capable, I have no reason to refuse." In fact, it was Xu Jinglin who recommended him again and again. He really didn't have the energy to worry about such trivial matters, so he acquiesced.
"Why are you talking to me in this tone?" Asahiro couldn't stand his lukewarm attitude.
Did he even look at her properly? His eyes were fixed on the documents! From the moment she entered his office until now, he had only glanced at her once, when she entered. And when he saw her, he didn't seem very happy, as if he didn't want to see her very much.
Because she remembered all the good things he had done for her before, she kept comforting herself, maybe it was because of the pressure from work that made him feel bad, not because of her!
But now it seems that there is obviously a problem between the two of them!
But why don’t you speak up if you have a problem?
If he doesn't tell, she will ask!
"Do you have any opinion about me?"
Yue Lanjing finally looked up at her, and the two of them stared at each other across the desk.
He pursed his thin lips tightly, and Chao Rirou felt that he was trying hard to hide something, but in the end he said nothing. He took a deep breath, as if swallowing what he wanted to say. "I don't have any objections. I told you not to think too much. You need to rest now. I'll ask the driver to take you back." His gaze returned to the documents.
"I really have nothing more to say to you now that you're like this." Chao Rirou stood up and walked out, feeling angry and aggrieved.
She didn't realize that the eyes behind her had been following her the moment she turned around. Those eyes, frozen in time, now revealed the emotions they couldn't show in front of her: pain! Hate! But even more, love!
As soon as Chao Rirou walked out of the office, she met Huang Ying's gaze. She was smiling and looking at her with great enthusiasm.
Asahiro looked away, past her. She had saved her, so she wouldn't bother with her.
As they passed by, Huang Ying smiled and asked, "Did he tell you he's been very busy lately?"
Asahirou slowed down her pace.
Huang Ying continued, "Actually, we are not busy at all." Without waiting for Chao Rirou to react, she turned and walked towards Yue Lanjing's office.
A black tight dress, fair skin, perfect figure and perfect face are enough to make all men fall in love with her.
She had said what she wanted to say, and what she wanted to do was still to break them up!
Asahiro still didn't look back, her eyes dimmed, and then she continued walking forward.
After returning home, she sent a text message to Yue Lanjing, "If you don't want to get married, we won't get married. If you want to break up, let's break up." Although it was unclear why his feelings for her had changed, if he didn't want to continue with her, she wouldn't force him! She wouldn't tie him down with the baby in her belly!
She also wanted to use this to test his true thoughts. If he cared about her, he would not remain indifferent.
But he didn't reply to the text message or return her call. Perhaps he was tired and fell asleep while waiting.
In a daze, a hand touched her face with gentle movements, as if caressing a treasure.
But that person's eyes were suddenly filled with resentment, hatred and accusation!
She couldn't stand that look, it suffocated her!
She wanted to escape, but she couldn't move! She couldn't breathe! She wanted to scream for help, but she couldn't...
She was woken up by the last shaking, and Yue Lanjing's face appeared in her eyes.
I don’t know if it’s because it’s raining outside and the sky is gloomy, so his face looks gloomy too.
She sat up slowly and asked, "Why are you here? Aren't you very busy?" Her tone showed that she was still angry.
"You sent such a scary text message. No matter how busy I am, I have to rush over immediately!" He raised his thin lips and made an expression that was almost a smile, but there was no smile in his eyes because he really couldn't smile.
What he said was true. He was really scared when he received her text message! He was afraid that she would leave him! At that moment, he sadly realized that he couldn't let go at all! Even though she betrayed him and trampled on his sincerity! But he still loved her very much, loved her so much that he couldn't lose her!
His heart had already told him, otherwise he wouldn't have subconsciously asked the doctor to keep this shocking secret a secret. He kept it a secret because he was afraid she would be upset if she knew, and her body was already weak and couldn't bear it any more! He was also afraid she would leave him if she knew. He knew Chanel, and if she knew the child wasn't his, she would definitely leave him! He couldn't bear the consequences!
But did he really understand her? Could he guarantee she hadn't deceived him? Did she know the child wasn't his, even though she didn't act like she knew. Could it be that she wasn't truly marrying him, and had been toying with him all along? These questions, like a venomous snake, gnawed at his heart.
He could ask her, but he didn't dare! He was afraid that there would be an unbridgeable gap between them.
"Scary? I thought you didn't care!" Seeing him open his mouth, Chao Rirou had already guessed what he was going to say and said first, "If you mean to say don't let your imagination run wild or something like that, you'd better stop. You should know that's not what I want to hear."
Yue Lanjing stared at her eyes which were filled with anger and grievance. Feeling aggrieved meant that she cared about him.
He slowly opened his thin lips, his eyes deep and full of meaning, "You want to know what I've been busy with recently? I've been with Secretary Guan recently. He's been heartbroken and depressed after a breakup. As his good friend, it's my responsibility to help him get back on his feet!"
"Really? But why did you hide this from me?" Asahiro questioned.
"Secretary Guan won't let me say it, but if I don't, I'm going to be heartbroken."
The doubt in Asahiro's eyes had not completely disappeared.
"He found out that his girlfriend had an abnormal relationship with another man!" He felt like a needle was piercing his heart with every word he said.
"Two-timing? It's not worth being sad for such a person." Asahirou expressed her opinion.
"You also think this is too much, right?" He looked at her intently, not missing any expression on her face.
"If I don't love you anymore, or fall in love with someone else, I will definitely tell you the first time." She looked at him seriously and added solemnly, "I hope you will too!"
"I agree with you!" He seemed very satisfied with her answer.
"Secretary Guan thinks he should forgive his girlfriend because that happened before they started dating. Although he minds, he can only blame himself for being a step late. What he really cares about is whether she still has contact with her ex-boyfriend after they started dating? What is her attitude towards that man now? To her, is her ex-boyfriend more important? Or is he more important?" He suppressed the hysteria in his heart, his eyes calm to the point of being cold.
"Then why didn't he just ask her directly?" He stared at her, and a chill ran through her. Why did his attitude make her feel like she was the woman he was talking about? But besides him, she had no other man!
"Maybe she's afraid the answer isn't what she wants to hear!" He wanted to smoke, but considering that she was still pregnant, he withdrew his hand that was about to take the cigarette.
"The most important thing for two people to get along with each other is to be honest, rather than relying on one's own subjective conjectures!" Asahirou said seriously.
"You're right. When two people get along, they need to be honest with each other. No secrets, no lies! So I've decided to be honest with you now!" His eyes suddenly became serious, holding her gaze tightly. "I didn't fall in love with you from the beginning. I first met you and fell in love with you for a purpose. I wanted to use you to get your father's shares! But later, to be more precise, after you were injured and lost your memory, I actually fell in love with you without realizing it! Now I sincerely want to marry you! No other thoughts!"
Asahirou's face was filled with emotion. This meant that he loved her, Asahirou, and had nothing to do with Chanel! She wondered if she should take this opportunity to tell him about her soul swap.
"What about you? Do you have anything to confess to me? Are there any other men besides me?" He asked half seriously and half jokingly. His eyes looked into hers sharply, wanting to see her sincerity. "Do you love me? Have you ever loved anyone else besides me? Who did you love the most? Who do you love now?" As long as she loved him now, he could put her past behind him!
Asahirou laughed, but the eyes she looked at him with were sincere. "If I didn't love you, why would I want to marry you? I only want to marry you!"
Yue Lanjing held her in her arms.
Asahi Rouya reached out and hugged him, continuing to confess, "I've only ever had feelings for one man, and that's you! So there's no such thing as loving anyone the most. I only love you! I only love you from beginning to end! And you're the only man!"
He paused as he gently kissed her forehead. Had she loved only him from the beginning? And only him? Then why was she pregnant with someone else's child? Was she just a sweet-talking liar? The heat in his eyes cooled once more.
"Nothing else to say?"
Asari opened her mouth and almost told her that she was not the real Chanel, but suddenly she thought that if she told him the truth, he would not be indifferent. He might even investigate the matter related to Yan Mingchi. Wouldn't that put him in danger?
She changed her words and said, "I can swear that after I lost my memory, you are the only man I have! I couldn't promise that before I lost my memory because I didn't remember." Only Chanel knew which men she had dated.
Yue Lanjing felt that this was not what she originally wanted to say. Did she still choose to lie to him? What did she mean by "he is the only man after losing her memory"? Didn't her pregnancy also happen after she lost her memory? Why couldn't she be honest with him? If she did, he would forgive her!
During dinner at the Xia family's house, Yue Lanhuan expressed her anguish. "You missed the date to get your marriage certificate. I was planning to choose a new one, but I looked and saw that the only auspicious date was the original wedding day. If you change that day to get your marriage certificate, the next auspicious day would probably have to be next year! We can wait, but the pregnant woman and the baby can't! What should I do?"
"Just pick two dates at random, we don't care about these things!" Chao Rirou asked the man sitting next to her, and Yue Lanjing nodded to indicate that she agreed with her.
"Marriage is a big deal, how can you treat it so casually? I have an old friend who married off her daughter. She just didn't believe in superstition and chose a date that was convenient for everyone but unfavorable for everyone else. As a result, within six months, the couple's relationship broke down and they insisted on getting a divorce! So I'm on your mother's side on this!"
Zhao Rirou rolled her eyes and said to Xia Tianhan, "When did you stop standing on your wife's side?"
"How about this, we hold the wedding on the originally scheduled date, and then choose a good date after getting the marriage certificate. As for me, I really want to hold the wedding with Neil as soon as possible, because I can't wait to tell the world that Chanel is my wife!" Yue Lanjing suggested. It was hard to see the coldness hidden in his smiling eyes.
The old couple was a little hesitant at first, but after hearing his last words, they immediately agreed. The main reason was that they trusted Yue Lanjing.
Asahirou had no objections. In fact, for her, getting a marriage certificate wasn't even necessary! She didn't need the legal protection of a marriage certificate, nor did she need the protection of vows sworn before Jesus at a wedding. She just needed an unwavering heart! That was the most effective protection!
After Yue Lanjing received a phone call, she left on the pretext of having something to do.
Asahirou heard that the voice on the phone was a woman, but she trusted him, and he had no intention of avoiding her at all, so there was really no need for her to think too much!
