After finishing speaking, he noticed something was wrong and added, "Bring her latest planning documents."
He Zikai didn't look at the manager, his eyes stayed on the documents. Nuo'er worked here. When he met Gu Yao, he was worried that Tengda's employees would spread some rumors in the future, so he added the following words.
"Okay, okay, I'll go right away." After the manager finished speaking, he bowed and turned to leave.
In the planning department, colleagues heard that He Zikai wanted to see Gu Yao and asked Gu Yao to bring the documents he planned. Everyone was envious and guessed that Gu Yao's work ability might be appreciated by He Zikai and he would be transferred to He Yi.
When I went to the Imperial Headquarters, no one had any other ideas.
Gu Yao held the folder in her hand and walked towards the reception room step by step, feeling extremely uneasy.
He Zikai has always been aloof, paying attention to him, but not focusing on him. He thought that there would never be any intersection in this life, and they would never meet again. Even if the He Yi Empire acquired Tengda, He Zikai would disdain a small company like Tengda.
I came here to visit, but today...
It seems that some things you don't want to face will have to be faced sooner or later, and you can't escape them after all.
After knocking on the door and walking into the reception room, Gu Yao saw He Zikai sitting on the sofa with her legs crossed.
"Sit..." Seeing Gu Yao, He Zikai was not surprised at all. He felt much calmer than when he just saw her name on the document.
"Yeah." Gu Yao nodded and sat down opposite He Zikai.
He Zikai looked at Gu Yao and felt very calm. Compared with her school days, she had indeed changed, and this change could not be evaluated by herself. It could only be evaluated by one person.
Seeing that He Zikai had no intention of speaking, Gu Yao took a deep breath, showed a forced smile, pretended to be happy and greeted, "Long time no see, Mr. He."
"Indeed, it's been a long time." He Zikai replied indifferently. He could clearly see all the expressions she showed. They were not the true joy in her heart at all.
"Well, I thought we would never have the chance to meet in the future." When Gu Yao said this, she felt a little sour in her heart. Obviously, she was thinking of someone.
No small movement or expression of hers could escape He Zikai's eyes.
He Zikai did not answer her, but asked, "How long have you been working here?"
"It's been more than a year." Gu Yao acted generously and said with a smile, "I am very satisfied with working here, the salary is good, and I get along well with my colleagues."
Listening to her words, He Zikai didn't believe it at all.
Very satisfied? Back then, she left that person so resolutely and hit the bottom of that person. Over the years, that person struggled little by little from self-degradation, decadence, and despair, but she said she was very satisfied. Is she really satisfied?
?
For a long time, Gu Yao didn't hear He Zikai's answer and felt a little embarrassed.
"What's the matter with you?" Gu Yao asked. She had countless guesses in her mind, but she still pretended not to know anything and asked.
"Are you and Cheng Nuo colleagues?" He Zikai said slowly.
"..." Gu Yao was suddenly startled and looked at He Zikai, "Do you know Cheng Nuo?"
"Yes." He Zikai replied. Although he didn't know whether Nuo'er had told her anything, he didn't intend to hide anything from her.
Because of that person, I regard her as a friend.
Gu Yao was obviously surprised. Cheng Nuo and He Zikai knew each other? Why didn't Cheng Nuo tell her?
"Are you friends?" Gu Yao asked.
He Zikai did not answer immediately. He waited for a while and then said, "You can ask her about my relationship with her."
He Zikai did not answer Gu Yao's question. She and Nuo'er have a good relationship, so she should believe the explanation Nuo'er gave her.
Moreover, if Nuo'er doesn't want to tell her the truth, he has no objection. Even if Nuo'er explains to her with a white lie, he will cooperate with Nuo'er to play the scene well, as long as it is Nuo'er's idea and what Nuo'er wants to do.
, he left her alone and stood by her side to protect her.
Gu Yao nodded to indicate that she understood and did not continue to ask any more questions.
The two then chatted briefly, and He Zikai noticed that Gu Yao was obviously nervous and seemed to be hiding something.
"That's okay, I'm going out first." Gu Yao said, already having the urge to escape.
He Zikai's aura is too strong, and although he has never witnessed his insight, his guess about him is not much different. He is worried that if he says something incorrectly or performs an action, he will look at it.
What comes out?
"Yeah." He Zikai responded.
Gu Yao stood up and prepared to leave.
"If you need help with anything, you can come to me." He Zikai said when she was about to turn around and leave.
"..." Gu Yao heard what he said, stopped leaving and looked at him, "Well, thank you."
He Zikai nodded.
Gu Yao turned around and left, her steps on high heels a little unsteady.
I don't know if it's because I've been sitting for a long time, or because... I have something on my mind.
Gu Yao walked to the door and opened it. When she was about to leave, her steps suddenly stopped.
Without turning around or looking back, Gu Yao spoke with some difficulty, "Zikai, is he okay?"
Gu Yao's voice was trembling a little, and her address to He Zikai was not as distant as before.
There is one person who is always in your heart.
He Zikai looked at her back. She was as thin as Nuo'er, but at this moment, she had sadness radiating from her body.
"He is also in this city, why don't you go and ask him in person?" He Zikai asked back, but did not answer.
Do you think it’s good or not?
If she said yes, would she feel less worried? She had been hurt so badly in the past, so she must have felt remorse in her heart, right?
What if it's not good? Will she be sad? Will her life be affected by that person's bad feelings?
Gu Yao's body trembled violently, trying not to let her emotions collapse.
"Just pretend I didn't ask." Gu Yao pretended to be strong, as if she remembered something, and said hurriedly, "Also, Zi Kai, don't tell him, please."
After saying that, Gu Yao quickly walked out of the reception room.
He Zikai looked at the door, there was no wave in his eyes, but there was a little wave in his heart.
Is she afraid of seeing him? Or does she no longer want to have anything to do with him?
If I told that person about her existence, that person's life would be overturned again, so I would rather not tell.
…
After He Zikai and An Lin left Tengda Company, they went to He Yi Empire. He Zikai returned to the office and had been processing documents. He called Aunt Lan at noon and asked her to deliver meals to the hospital on time and take good care of Nuoer.
In the afternoon, He Zikai stayed in the conference room. After three consecutive meetings, it was already time to get off work, and He Zikai was also a little tired.
"Mr. He, why don't you go back to the office and take a rest first, and then I'll take you to the hospital." An Lin followed He Zikai to the elevator and said with concern.
After a busy day, I am very tired, let alone my boss who has been concentrating on his work.
"No, go to the hospital." He Zikai said.
"Yeah." An Lin had no choice but to respond silently.
