I don’t know how long the silence lasted, but it was me who finally spoke first to break the silence.
I said to her again: "I don't want to say anything else. I just want to ask you, have you ever had me in your heart?"
"If I didn't have you in my heart, I would definitely have told you early, but in that case, you would be exposed, and I would be exposed at the same time."
I still smiled bitterly and said, "Do you just not trust me that much? Or are you afraid that I will deliberately expose your affairs?"
"No, Chen Feng, many things are not as simple as you think. I do this because I don't want you to get involved. I hope you can be simpler."
"But I'm not fucking simple at all. If you're behind my back, you should know that I've been living a life that's worse than a pig's and a dog's in the past six months."
"I know, and I also know that you suffered from severe depression because of me. I almost couldn't help coming to you several times."
My tears finally flowed out, and I don’t know why I was still inexplicably moved.
I raised my head and held back my tears, then continued to sneer at her and said, "Are you finally willing to say something nice?"
"I have so many things I want to say to you, but your current attitude makes it impossible for me to speak."
"What's my attitude? My current attitude is all because of you."
She fell silent again and lowered her head.
An Lan rarely behaved in such a humble manner in front of me. This seemed to be the first time in my memory.
I think I should be a bit more manly, to understand her and take care of her emotions.
But I’m a human being too! Who cares about me? Who cares about how I’ve been feeling for the past six months?
I'm not being pretentious, it's just that I may need some time to balance.
I waved my hand, suddenly I didn't want to continue to torture her anymore, and said to her: "Don't say it anymore. If you don't want to say it, then don't say it forever. Let's separate! I said it."
After saying that, I turned around and walked towards the door.
Just as I was about to open the door, An Lan shouted to me from behind: "Chen Feng, don't be like this, I miss you very much, I really miss you."
"Is this how you miss me?" I turned my head and saw that she had tears streaming down her face.
I was suddenly shocked. I couldn't stand her crying, and she rarely cried in front of me.
She is the strongest woman I have ever seen. Even Liang Jing and Huang Li are not as strong as her. Her strength is the kind of strength that makes people feel that she doesn't care about everything.
But now, she actually shed tears in front of me. Is it repentance or guilt?
No matter what it was, I finally relented.
I walked back to her and sat down in the same position again, but I didn't know what to say.
In the end, I had to take out a tissue and hand it to her, and then said to her in a lighter tone: "Wipe your tears! I'm not excited anymore. I'll listen to you slowly."
She took the tissue from my hand, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and then said to me: "I know you have had a hard time in the past six months. I really know everything, but I am really powerless. I have to face it at the same time."
Min Nolan, while facing the division of several major camps in the group, and Min Wenbin, I have to pretend to be dead. Only in this way can I protect myself and you, you know?"
"I feel ashamed to see you when you say that. I feel quite ignorant. I should understand you."
"No, I can also understand your feelings. If you disappeared for more than half a year inexplicably like me, I would also be very angry."
I rubbed my nose, and then asked her: "So? What have you done in the past six months? Tell me, okay?"
An Lan fell silent again, not sure whether he was weighing his concerns or just didn't want to tell me.
After a long while, she finally said to me: "You should have heard from Jiang He that the An Group will be in great turmoil soon, right?"
I nodded and said, "He told me that you are the one behind all this?"
"It's me, but I haven't come forward. The ones who came forward were my uncles. He was my father's best friend during his lifetime, and he came forward on my behalf."
"What now? How is this going?"
"The dust has almost settled, but before this matter is completely settled, I still have two things to do."
"Which two?"
This time, An Lan did not hesitate. She said decisively: "When Min Nolan betrayed my father, she and that man had a fake car accident. I have to find out about this matter; the other one
The problem is Min Wenbin, he wants to kill me, so I will let him sit in jail."
"So you're not going to show up now?"
An Lan was silent for a while before saying: "I will show up after the things in the group are settled. By then they will have no capital."
"By the way," I suddenly remembered something, and then asked her, "What kind of palm print has Min Wenbin and Min Nolan been looking for? I heard that the person who gets the palm print must be the An family, so is that palm print with you?"
"
An Lan shook his head, then looked at me and said, "Here you are."
"Ah?!" I looked at her in disbelief, my mouth wide open in surprise.
"Why is it here with me? I've never seen it before."
An Lan smiled and said, "Do you still remember the necklace I gave you that night in Sanya?"
necklace?
Liang Jing also told me that the palm print is a necklace, why didn't I think of it?
"So you put this thing here on purpose?"
An Lan nodded, but then said: "But this palm print is of no use anymore. It is just a legend, deliberately released to deceive Min Nolan and the others."
I was shocked, I really didn't expect such a result.
In my disbelief, An Lan said to me again: "That necklace is indeed An's palm print. It was given to me by my father during his lifetime, but it was later abolished, but it is still my most precious thing."
After listening to what she said, I suddenly realized that Min Wenbin and the others were the ones who had been kept in the dark.
In the end, An Lan is the smartest one. She has done too many things in the past six months, but I didn't notice it at all.
In silence, An Lan said to me again: "Chen Feng, I have thought clearly. After I complete these three things, I will hand over the group to my uncle to manage, and I will always be by your side from now on."
, okay?"
My heart felt like a five-flavor bottle had been knocked over. Originally, I was full of hatred for her. I hated why she lied to me, and I hated that she took our relationship for granted.
But at this moment, I suddenly felt relieved. She had too many things she couldn't help herself, so she had been living so tiredly.
I should understand her, and I must understand her.
I finally lowered my head and said to her: "I'm sorry. I just realized that you have shouldered so many missions and that you are under so much pressure. I should understand you, but not only did I not think from your perspective.
, but I still blame you."
An Lan finally smiled, and her tears burst out again, and she said to me: "It doesn't matter, I have always believed in the idiom that after all hardship comes happiness."
I didn't say any more, I suddenly pulled her over and hugged her tightly.
