The sun shone slantly on the glass curtain wall of the Mengshi Building, shining with a dazzling light.
Meng Yanchen walked through the lobby of the building with his hands in his pockets. His face was not as cold as usual, and the corners of his mouth seemed to be slightly curved. Her plight made him feel bitter and distressed, but he knew
He knew that she had a kind and filial heart. This knowledge made his heart, which was originally full of doubts and plans, melt a little bit.
Go through the hall and into the corridor.
Some female employees turned their backs to Meng Yanchen and chatted here during their free time at work. They did not realize that the president was behind them, but they still chatted with interest.
If it were the previous Meng Yanchen, he would have taken out his cell phone from his pocket without saying a word, called the head of the human resources department, and asked him to solve the problem without any hesitation.
However, he overheard the content of their conversation intentionally or unintentionally.
"Hey! Meng Yanxi is pursuing Chu Qiao from the public relations department! I even gave her ninety-nine roses this morning!"
"Hey! Isn't that the image lady at the Jinxuan Real Estate press conference?"
"That's her! I envy her so much!"
"Look at her appearance, she is pure and lovely, maybe she has great skills!"
"..."
Meng Yanxi pursues Chu Qiao?! Meng Yanchen frowned, his phoenix eyes couldn't help but deepen. He also narrowed the slight arc at the corners of his mouth, and his face turned livid. Meng Yanxi couldn't help but appear in his mind.
Said he likes Chu Qiao...
His heart suddenly became violent and his fingers clenched. He did not deal with the group of gossiping female staff. Instead, he walked into his special elevator with a gloomy face and a cold face.
When those female employees saw Meng Yanchen walking into the elevator, they suddenly woke up. They were chatting at work and the president saw them! Looking again, the president exuded a violent and sinister aura, which made them run away immediately, still feeling in their hearts.
Constantly worrying about his unpredictable and tragic future.
Meng Yanchen approached the elevator, suppressed the irritability in his heart, and pressed the button for the eighteenth floor. The elevator rose little by little, and the original good mood disappeared completely in an instant. Chu Qiao was his lover...
She is already his, how can she be worthy of Yan Xi and get Yan Xi's love?
The expression on his face was uncertain, and his eyes were as if they were dipped in ink, making it impossible to fathom his inner thoughts.
?It’s almost time for lunch break.
Chu Qiao's cell phone rang. As soon as Chu Qiao picked up the phone, she found that all the eyes of her colleagues in the office were focused on Chu Qiao. She was startled, then picked up the phone and walked out of the office area before pressing the call button.
"Hello, hello..."
"Chu Qiao, it's me, Yan Xi!" No matter how many times I hear his voice, it is always so magnetic and pleasant.
Chu Qiao sighed softly: "I know..."
"At noon, let's go have dinner together! Then when the lunch break comes, I'll find you on the sixth floor!" He works on the twelfth floor, so it's very convenient to come to the sixth floor to find her.
"No more..." Chu Qiao smiled at the corner of her mouth: "What I mean is, don't come to me on the sixth floor. Let's meet at the whole family next to Meng's! I just want to talk to you..."
"Okay, see you then!"
"Well, okay!"
After hanging up the phone, she took a deep breath. She regarded him as a friend, and although she somewhat understood his liking, she had never said anything about her rejection. Now, it should be time.
Chu Qiao was leaning against the glass window, with a bitter smile on her lips. She had never had the luxury of expecting to be so special. She had always hoped that she could be ordinary and live a warm life with her family and loved ones. She only wanted to be ordinary and ordinary.
She wants to spend the remaining years of the agreement quietly, and leave silently when it expires. If she has any biggest wish now, it is that she hopes someone can donate a suitable kidney to her father...
Lunch break time.
In front of the arranged FamilyMart convenience store, Chu Qiao saw Meng Yanxi standing there. He was wearing a white sweater today, smiled softly, and waved to him. Pure white, worn by Meng Yanxi
He is very good-looking, and the smile at the corner of his mouth is very warm. It is completely different from Meng Yanchen, and it makes people feel better naturally.
Looking at Yanxi like this, she couldn't help but have an idea. If Meng Yanxi had chosen to buy her, would the process have been different? The ending would have been different? Suddenly, Chu Qiao chuckled. This world has never been like this.
What if. If, it will only be accompanied by regret, but no matter you regret it, things will not go backwards, and what happened will not never happen...
"Chu Qiao, is there anything funny?" Meng Yanxi walked up to her and asked her.
"nothing."
"Let's go! Then let's have lunch together!"
"Um!"
Chu Qiao followed Meng Yanxi to a tea restaurant.
"The milk tea here is delicious! It's my favorite drink!" Meng Yanxi took the menu and pointed to the photos on the menu, her eyes falling gently on Chu Qiao. Chu Qiao liked to laugh, but she
He doesn't really smile a lot. But once that smile comes from his heart, he will feel warm in his heart. So, he is willing to wait for her smile and watch her become happy.
"Really? Then I want to drink it!" Chu Qiao nodded: "If it tastes good, then I will also invite my good friends over to drink it!"
Several Cantonese dim sum and Cantonese dishes.
The food was served quickly.
The milk tea was that kind of warm. Chu Qiao's fingers touched the glass, and her fingers couldn't help but tremble slightly. She held the straw with her fingers and was just stirring the milk tea. Her eyelashes were fluttering gently, and a flash of light flashed in her almond eyes.
A trace of hesitation.
"Chu Qiao, do you like my flowers?" Meng Yanxi asked.
Chu Qiao raised her head and met his affectionate eyes. His eyes were very clear, and the sincerity, love, and tenderness could clearly be read in his eyes. However, Chu Qiao's heart felt heavy.
Meng Yanxi stared at Chu Qiao's little face and said seriously: "Chu Qiao, do you remember that rainy night? It was you who appeared in front of my car and was almost hit by my car. I was just thinking, it's so late
, it was raining so hard, how could you, a girl, appear on the street? In the car, you once asked me if I would buy you? At that time, I thought you were no different from other women I knew, but
Are you just interested in my money?"
"However, I remember the way you looked at me, which contained pleading, despair, helplessness, and struggle... Even in the United States, I still remember it. I regret why I didn't ask you clearly... So, when I came back from the United States,
I hope to find you. In the days I spent with you, I discovered your stubbornness, kindness, and stubbornness. I fell in love with you. Can you give me a chance? Give me a chance to take care of you. I promise.
I will take good care of you and wait for your smile..." Meng Yanxi spoke fluently, but there was already a thin layer of sweat on her hands. This was the first time he confessed to the girl he liked, and he was nervous but
Looking forward to Chu Qiao's answer again.
Chu Qiao let go of the straw in her hand, and the straw still lazily turned a few times in the glass. Such a gentle and extremely romantic confession would make any woman tempted, and Chu Qiao was no exception.
However, she was very sober. She was so sober now that she was not in a novel or an idol drama. When she told him about the deal between her and Meng Yanchen, he would gently caress her cheek and say to her
It doesn't matter, he doesn't mind, he even takes her away from this sad place.
Chu Qiao has been very self-aware since she was a child. But now, she knows that she is not worthy of Meng Yanxi. Her body was touched by Meng Yanchen and was marked by his mark. Whether she wanted to admit it or not, her body
There is a shadow of Meng Yanchen in my heart.
It would be unfair to Yan Xi if he agreed!
"I'm sorry..." Chu Qiao heard her slightly trembling voice: "Yan Xi, we are still good friends, okay?"
"A good friend?" Meng Yanxi asked with a frown. She couldn't help but let go of her clenched hands and asked: "Why a good friend? Why don't you give me a chance to take good care of you? Don't you hate it?
I?"
Chu Qiao shook her head: "No, Yanxi, I don't hate you. I just think I'm not worthy of you!" She doesn't deserve him. What Meng Yanchen said is indeed true. He is the president's younger brother.
A well-known barrister in the legal field, he is gentle and elegant, and is the idol of all female employees in the company. But she is very ordinary, so ordinary that she can be seen everywhere, how can she stand by his side?
"Chu Qiao, are you worthy or not? It's not what you say, nor what others say! It's what I say! I like you, and you deserve my love!" Meng Yan
The smile on Xi's lips was gone, and she only felt that her heart was filled with deep loss.
"No... no matter what, I can't like you! I hope we are still good friends..." Chu Qiao tried her best to bring up a smile, but only she knew how bitter this smile was.
Meng Yanxi's eyes suddenly dimmed, but soon they became bright again: "Okay!" It didn't matter if she was a good friend. At least, he could always be by her side. As long as he didn't give up, he believed,
There will come a day when she will fall in love with him.
After saying this, Chu Qiao felt much relieved. She took a big sip of milk tea and found that the milk tea was fragrant and smooth, and tasted very similar to the milk tea made by Zheng Jiajia herself. She tried to break the gap between her and Meng Yanxi.
After being silent, he said: "It's really delicious! It's almost as good as my colleague's at making milk tea!"
"Almost?" Meng Yanxi's mouth returned to its usual elegant tone, and she took a sip of the milk tea in the cup: "Then I really need to try it next time... This was my favorite place to drink milk tea before I went abroad..."
Chu Qiao smiled and nodded: "Well, okay, if there is a chance, I will ask her to come over and give it a try!"
While eating, Meng Yanxi's eyes kept falling on Chu Qiao and never moved away. Whether it was the soup stains on the corner of her mouth, the hot shrimp balls in the soup that made her suck her tongue, or the satisfied drink of milk tea.
