Lu Tianming, he is sitting on the seat of Jiheng Group.
Tonight, he changed into a standard workplace hairstyle and looked elegant. The exquisite black suit enhanced his overall temperament.
"Manager Lu, let me toast you."
"How dare you be...Mr. Ji, I should respect you." Lu Tianming held up his wine glass with an official smile.
Ji Jingyang was sitting not far from him, toasting everyone from time to time, and Lu Tianming nodded politely in return.
Su Han stood aside and stared blankly - these two men toasting each other, one was her "father" who had abandoned her, and the other was her most trusted elder brother.
Su Han's heart was severely broken. They really became extremely distant...
"I'm sorry, I'm a little uncomfortable..." Su Han left Ye Junxuan's hand and turned around to leave without looking back.
The dining table suddenly became quiet for a few seconds, and people turned their attention here.
Ye Junxuan was a little embarrassed. He didn't know what happened to Su Han. After nodding apologetically to the guests present, he followed him away.
…
At the public wash basin outside the bathroom, Su Han turned on the faucet, held cold water in both hands and put it to her mouth, and then she calmed down a little.
Is that really Lu Tianming? He works in Ji Jingyang's company?
No wonder he hesitated when Su Han asked him where he worked that day. Su Han laughed to himself. He didn't dare to tell her, knowing full well that she hated her father and knowing that she would have thoughts about where he worked...
Lu Tianming, he was her childhood sweetheart and her most trusted big brother... He promised her that he would always protect her. However, if he hadn't been hit by her today, how long would he have planned to hide it from her?
Why would he work for someone she hated?
what is this?
Thinking about it, Su Han felt unspeakably sad. Why did he lie to her? He seemed to always squander her trust, or he never cared about her trust...
When Ye Junxuan rushed to the wash area, he was overtaken by Lu Tianming from the other side.
Su Han saw Lu Tianming's face in the mirror. She did not see Ye Junxuan's figure behind the frosted glass.
"Hanhan..." Lu Tianming took half a step closer and looked at her in evening dress, suddenly feeling strange. It was as if there was some inexplicable force preventing them from getting closer.
Su Han was silent, looking down at the water in the pool, swirling around and disappearing little by little, leaving it empty.
She doesn't want to hear an explanation, she doesn't want to hear anything. Let her be alone for a while.
It’s not Tianming’s fault. He has the right to choose his own life. He is free to work where he wants... It’s because she is too narrow-minded to forgive and accept her father. She needs time to digest this matter by herself. In fact, it’s not a big deal.
.
Su Han forced a smile and turned around slowly: "Tianming, did you have a good time at the banquet tonight?"
Her topic was so irrelevant that Lu Tianming was stunned.
"Well, it's okay." He had no choice but to answer Su Han's question. Even he felt awkward like this.
Ye Junxuan stood on the other side of the glass and couldn't hear what the two were talking about. But looking at the way they hesitated and longed to get closer to each other, there must be an unknown story behind them.
Lu Tianming is the name Su Han once murmured in his sleep. Ye Junxuan will never forget it. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but clenched his fists.
"Work...is it okay?" Su Han's voice was trembling, but she still kept smiling.
General Manager of the Marketing Department of Jiheng Group, Lu Tianming—Su Han saw the business card clearly printed on his left chest.
Lu Tianming was silent. He understood Su Han's character. She would not write sadness on her face. She could still laugh when faced with painful things...
"Han, please listen to my explanation."
Lu Tianming was about to speak when he saw Ye Junxuan move the right half of his body out of the glass window, and he was speechless for a moment.
"Hanhan, how are you? Do you feel better?" Ye Junxuan put his hands in his pockets, walked to Su Han, and glanced at Lu Tianming: "Oh? Manager Lu is here too. Did I come at the wrong time?"
He smiled casually, as if he really didn't mind. Su Han was not a fool and knew what he was thinking.
"Mr. Ye, what are you talking about?" Lu Tianming immediately understood the meaning of Ye Junxuan's words and stayed away from Su Han.
Ye Junxuan put his hands in front of him and smiled politely at Lu Tianming: "This is Hanhan's first time attending a banquet with me. If there is anything wrong, please forgive me, Manager Lu."
Every word is pulling the distance between the two - Hanhan is Ye Junxuan's, not Lu Tianming's.
Lu Tianming felt very uncomfortable, but he nodded knowingly.
"Well, Manager Lu, I'm so sorry. I'm taking my girlfriend back, do you think?..." Ye Junxuan put his arms around Su Han's shoulders, like a couple in love.
Lu Tianming's eyes dimmed and he nodded slightly to the two of them: "Sorry for disturbing you and Miss Su."
Miss Su…
Su Han looked at Lu Tianming blankly. Since when did they become so strange?
The most painful thing in life is watching people you were familiar with become strangers and become distant. That feeling of wanting to hold on but being powerless is very sad...
"My dear, let's go back?" Ye Junxuan hugged Su Han's waist intimately. It was not that he didn't see the disappointment flashing in Su Han's eyes.
…
Under the dim lights of the banquet, Su Han's arms rested on those solid shoulders, moving slowly with his dance steps. Ye Junxuan suddenly grabbed her hand: "What are you thinking about."
There was no disobeying in his tone.
"Nothing, just dancing..." Su Han only looked at him for a second.
He put his fingers through the gaps between hers, and their hands intertwined perfectly. He whispered in her ear: "You are my woman, you can only have me in your eyes."
Su Han stared at this man, his eyes full of doubt and distrust.
"Are you sad when you see your old lover?" Seeing Su Han's silence, Ye Junxuan simply changed the topic.
Su Han didn't want to explain. Her relationship with Lu Tianming was not the kind of relationship he imagined. He obviously misunderstood. The reason why she was distracted was just because she couldn't figure it out...
"Why don't you say anything?" Ye Junxuan smiled. The more she behaves like this, the more it proves her guilty conscience.
"He and I are not what you think." Su Han was tired and said something he didn't believe.
Never explain yourself. People you trust don't need explanations. For those who don't believe it, no matter how hard you explain, it will be in vain.
Ye Junxuan shook off Su Han's hand and looked at her coldly.
Su Han did not escape his gaze. Why did he bother? He obviously didn't love her, but he wanted to control her. Is it possible? Because he couldn't tolerate sand in his eyes, he destroyed all the sand he thought...
At this moment, he suddenly kissed her hard.
She beat him, but to no avail. He held her body tightly, and his hot lips and tongue moved longingly between hers, passionate, ambiguous, confused...full of possessiveness.
"Don't try to challenge my bottom line." He let go of her lips, his voice was horribly low.
"I didn't love you in the first place." They were just pretending to be a couple, so what else did you want her to do? She couldn't do it if she pretended to love him very much and belong to him wholeheartedly.
He held her neck and got close to her ear: "Then I will let you fall in love with me."
Ye Junxuan stared at the woman in his arms intently, his lustful eyes almost swallowing her whole.
He only let her fall in love with him, but never promised to love her - this is the price of being a plaything.
