After finishing her work in City A, Su Li returned to City S. Naturally, she often ate with Lu Cheng during this period.
As for Xu Ningchen, Su Li didn't go to see him at all.
No matter how sincere Xu Ningchen was, Su Li was unmoved at all and dismissed him as too busy with work.
Although Xu Ningchen was upset, he also knew that he and Su Li had reunited after a long absence. They hadn't been together for so many years, so it was normal for her to be a little cold.
However, when he thought that he came to City A eagerly, but only met once, he felt that his self-esteem was hurt. With such a mood, he returned to S City.
The company has already accumulated a lot of things that he needs to handle personally. Fortunately, Chu Jianxing has a good working ability and handles everything well, making it easy for him to prioritize.
After working overtime for two days, I finally finished all these things.
Holding a glass of red wine, Xu Ningchen stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, looking at City S in the night.
This is the 32nd floor, and there are thousands of lights under your feet.
I don't know what the person he is thinking about is doing at this moment.
The slight drunkenness brought by the red wine made Xu Ningchen's emotions a little exposed.
"Mr. Xu, don't you want to go back?"
A gentle voice sounded from behind.
Xu Ningchen turned around and saw Chu Jianxing standing there. Her almond eyes looked a little cute, but there was a bit of distress in her eyes.
He sighed.
It would be great if one day Shi Xiao could show such eyes.
Xu Ningchen felt a little uncomfortable. The person he liked was so indifferent to him, but the person he decided to stay away from was looking at him like this from behind. It made his heart feel like it had been pricked lightly, aching sorely.
Xu Ningchen walked towards Chu Jianxing, "Do you like me?"
Chu Jianxing was taken aback for a moment. Seeing Xu Ningchen's appearance at this time, she suddenly made a decision.
Her eyelashes trembled slightly, she bit her lip, and said, "Yes... I know I'm not good enough for you, I'm just your secretary. And, and we agreed at the beginning, but I couldn't hold back... I actually I have liked you since a long time ago, but I dare not tell you. Sorry, Mr. Xu... "
As she spoke, she choked up a bit, and a tear fell from her eye socket.
Xu Ningchen felt his heart was pinched by something, a little uncomfortable, a little distressed.
He was caught when he put it down, stepped forward in a strange way, and hugged this girl who looked so fragile that she seemed to be unable to hold on in the next moment.
Tears fell on his shoulders, and he could still feel them clearly through the shirt.
Xu Ningchen sighed, "It's my fault..."
"No, it's my fault. Mr. Xu, I want to resign..." Chu Jianxing said with sobs.
"Why?" Xu Ningchen was taken aback.
"I'm just... just too uncomfortable. I'm afraid that I won't be able to get your love when I'm by your side. I can't stand it... I'm too greedy, I can only leave you..."
Xu Ningchen was touched by Chu Jianxing's words, and he hugged him tightly. This girl was once used as a stand-in by him, and they had a wonderful time. They are the superiors and subordinates in the company during the day, and the closest lovers at night.
Those memories made Xu Ningchen want to make up for her.
He kissed Chu Jianxing, and Chu Jianxing closed his eyes. This time, she looks more like Shi Xiao.
The slightly drunk Xu Ningchen couldn't care less, he picked her up and put her on the sofa, leaned over and kissed her...
