Thinking of this, Cheng Nuo felt panicked. Last time, the media determined that He Zikai's wife would definitely be a well-matched daughter of a wealthy family, but he had nothing to do with it. So after making his relationship with him public, some things...
You know what will happen without even thinking.
Cheng Nuo suddenly held He Zikai's hand and said nervously, "Zikai, don't make it public, okay?"
An Lin became worried at the side and looked at He Zikai and Cheng Nuo. Even though Cheng Nuo's voice was very low, she still heard the tremor in her voice and she was afraid.
He Zikai squinted his eyes and looked at Cheng Nuo beside him, feeling an indescribable pain in his heart.
Is she so afraid of going public? Is she afraid that Gong Yi will know? Could it be that she and Gong Yi have been in love since childhood? At first, she thought Tianyu was the only person she loved in her heart. Now it seems that Gong Yi must be in her heart.
More important than Tianyu.
She saw every move Gong Yi made towards her just now. There was no doubt that Gong Yi liked her.
Cheng Nuo looked at He Zikai, waiting for his answer. He felt nervous and panicked, expecting him to answer quickly.
He Zikai looked at Cheng Nuo with no intention of answering.
The two of them just looked at each other, and neither of them "could hear" what the people on the stage were saying.
The campaign was ongoing, and in the end, He Yi Empire won the development rights of Lehua City. The host invited He Zikai to speak on stage.
Just when He Zikai retracted his gaze, stood up, and was about to go on stage.
Cheng Nuo suddenly called out affectionately, "Ah Kai..."
Cheng Nuo was very scared. She was really afraid that he would stand on the stage and disclose her relationship with him.
He Zikai didn't answer Cheng Nuo, didn't even look at Cheng Nuo, and walked towards the stage like a gentleman.
And with every step he took, He Zikai felt like a knife was stabbing his heart.
Noel, does our relationship embarrass you so much?
He Zikai stood on the stage and glanced around the audience. Finally, he followed his heart and focused on the woman he cared about very much.
He Zikai looked at Cheng Nuo and could clearly see the tears holding back in her eyes, and her "Ah Kai" voice just now echoed in his mind.
Noel, what should I do with you?
"I declare..." He Zikai opened his mouth and went directly to the topic without any polite words of greeting.
Cheng Nuo's nerves were already on a string. As long as He Zikai said the next words, his inner world would definitely collapse.
In my heart, I was prepared for the worst. If I marry this man and fall in love with him, I have to bear everything he brings, right?
Everyone in the audience was waiting for He Zikai's words, wondering what novel themes the CEO of He Yi Empire would say on this stage.
"The Lehua City project does not require investment from GD Financial International." He Zikai spoke slowly, keeping his eyes on Cheng Nuo, "He Yi, invest and build it yourself."
Suddenly, the audience fell silent, and no one could believe the decision He Zikai made.
The investment in the Lehua City project is not a small amount, but He Yi has the financial capacity, but has He Zikai really considered such an important decision?
Gong Yi also frowned, obviously not expecting He Zikai to make such a decision. If this decision was confirmed, then it would be extremely funny for him to participate in the campaign for this project.
Cheng Nuo looked at He Zikai, his expression gradually changed, until he completely relaxed, he looked at He Zikai and smiled affectionately.
Ah Kai, thank you, thank you for not making it public.
And, Ah Kai, I love you.
However, Cheng Nuo's smile seemed a bit dazzling to He Zikai.
After all, I can't ignore her feelings. Seeing the tears in her eyes, my heart will hurt, very painful.
He Zikai stepped down from the stage amidst the commotion in the audience and sat back in his seat.
When He Zikai just sat down, Cheng Nuo reached over and took his hand.
He Zikai did not look at Cheng Nuo, but looked ahead indifferently, feeling the warmth from her palms in his hands.
In the host's final closing remarks, the campaign ended. An Lin came to the stage to get relevant information and documents, and the three of them walked out of the conference hall and went to the hotel's catering department for dinner.
…
The hotel catering department is not open to the public today and is only for people participating in the Leroy City project.
He Zikai, Cheng Nuo, and An Lin had just walked to the restaurant when they saw Gong Yi walking towards them.
He Zikai always had an indifferent expression, and when he saw Gong Yi coming over, he was not ready to greet him.
Gong Yi stood still in front of Cheng Nuo, looked at Cheng Nuo for a while, and then looked at He Zikai.
"Mr. He, your decision just now really surprised me." Gong Yi said.
He Zikai snorted coldly and replied, "Everyone should be surprised, right?"
After saying that, He Zikai's eyes slowly moved to Cheng Nuo.
I made this temporary decision just for this woman. If GD invests in the Leroy City project, then they will inevitably meet frequently in the future. By then, won’t the chances of Nuoer and Gong Yi meeting each other increase as well?
How could I allow such a thing?
He invested and built his own Lehua City. He Yi had the strength and he had no financial worries at all, so this decision was just a matter of words to him.
"That's right." Gong Yi laughed at himself. He Zikai's decision today was indeed a slap in the face for him.
An Lin went to greet government officials not far away on behalf of He Zikai. Cheng Nuo stood next to He Zikai. Listening to the conversation between He Zikai and Gong Yi, he clearly felt that there was a sense of confrontation in their words, and Gong Yi seemed... a little embarrassed.
.
"Nono, let's eat together." Suddenly, Gong Yi looked at Cheng Nuo and said.
"..." Cheng Nuo was not mentally prepared and looked at Gong Yi in surprise. When he came to his senses, he looked at He Zikai.
I muttered in my heart, He Zikai wouldn't agree, right? If he didn't agree, then just reject Gong Yi, find time to ask Gong Yi for dinner later, and tell him everything he wanted to say.
He Zikai knew that Cheng Nuo was looking at him, so he looked indifferent and didn't show any emotion.
Cheng Nuo thought about it and planned to politely refuse Gong Yi.
Just when Cheng Nuo was about to speak, An Lin had already walked up to He Zikai and said before Cheng Nuo, "Mr. He, the people from the government want to invite you to have dinner together."
"..." He Zikai didn't expect such a coincidence. He originally wanted to hear what this woman would choose, but now it seems that no matter what her choice is, he can't eat this meal with her.
"Nono..." Gong Yi didn't wait for Cheng Nuo's answer for a long time. After An Lin finished speaking, he called Cheng Nuo gently.
"Yeah." Cheng Nuo came back to his senses, looked at Gong Yi, smiled and said, "Okay, let's eat together."
Since He Zikai is going to accompany the government personnel, An Lin will definitely follow him, so he will have dinner with Gong Yi, so that he can chat with Gong Yi and learn about his life in these years. (To be continued)
