“Dad and Mom have been asking, they say why don’t you bring a boyfriend back to see, if they find out about your current status like…” Xinmei paused, unable to spit out the words “mistress”. “…” “Oh! In any case, you know Dad’s personality well, if he finds out, it would be strange if he doesn’t have a stroke.” Xinmei muttered. Qi’s father was a conservative and rigorous professor-level figure. If Xinluo’s current actions were to reach her father’s ears, it would only mean “ruining the family reputation, being expelled from the family”. “I understand what you mean!” Frowning, Xinluo felt a surge of irritation. In fact, she also hoped she could bring herself to leave Xia Erxi, but every time she was disheartened and wanted to let go, he would appear again, giving her a big hug. The bittersweet complexity was hard for outsiders to understand. She could only say – Xia Erxi knew women too well; he knew how to make her happy and make her completely devoted to him. “Sister, I’ve talked myself hoarse, are you listening?” “Hmm.” “Don’t just think… give me a response!” “Xinmei, I know what I should do.” She softly soothed her sister’s excited emotions: Xinluo said with a smile. “Xinluo, you haven’t been looking well lately, are you feeling unwell?” Seeing her in a daze alone in the rest room, Gao Yizhe approached with concern.
“It’s nothing, thank you for your concern, General Manager.” Suddenly coming back to her senses, Xinluo shook her head. The three words “General Manager” seemed to pull their relationship far apart again. Gao Yizhe frowned, wanting to speak several times but stopping himself. He really wanted their relationship to be closer, but he could never cross the distance she deliberately maintained.
“…If you’re not feeling well, tell me. You can go home and rest.” He pushed his glasses, looking somewhat helpless.
“I’m really fine.” Her words lacked any convincing power, with clear signs of exhaustion under her eyes. Since that unpleasant phone call that day, Xia’er Xi had completely disappeared for a month, as if she had vanished from the world. If only she could truly break away, perha
“Xinluo, actually I…” Gao Yizhe’s voice suddenly stopped, and their attention was simultaneously drawn to the TV screen in the rest area.
