Han Xize leaned back in his chair and sat across from Yang Muye, raising an eyebrow: "How is it that you've returned to your old self just a few days after being tamed?" With the deep affection Yang Muye had shown before, he didn't seem like someone who would change his mind so quickly.
Yang Mu Ye casually flipped through the documents and said: "I just found out some things, why did you suddenly come back? Didn't you say you were going to stay in the US for a while?"
Han Xize didn't care about changing the subject and continued to press him: "What did you discover? Was your previous deep affection an illusion?"
Yang Mu Ye pursed his thin lips, emitting a cold aura from all over: "A small matter. How long will you be staying in the country this time? Your old man seems to not want you to go abroad and fool around."
Han Xize saw that the more he didn't mention it, the more suspicious he became, and no matter what he said, he continued to ask: "What's going on? Is B University's campus belle not her but Xiaobai?" Can people with long eyes really become blind like that?
Yang Mu Ye let out a sigh and leaned back in his leather chair, exhaustion evident as he spoke: "The person who saved me back then was Lu Wan Qi."
Han Xize was stunned for the first time, looking at Yang Muye's almost unrecognizable expression.
If it were in the past, Yang Mu Ye would have definitely teased him a bit, but now he has no interest and continues to say: "I was wrong all along, I thought it was her who sent me to the hospital, so I was moved for so long, doing so many things for five years. Only now do I know that I misrecognized the person, letting Lu Wan Qi suffer so much."
Han Xize picked up his stunned chin and frowned as he continued to speak.
Yang Mu Ye stared blankly at the wall, feeling a heavy heart: "I never understood why I felt that Lu Wan Qi was special, now thinking about it maybe it's because I had an impression of her in my mind, so I helped her, now knowing it was a misunderstanding, then returning to the original position would be good for everyone."
Han Xize was speechless, frowning and asking him: "You only noticed Xia Tianmeng because of a misunderstanding, but you also like her because of a misunderstanding?" Is this guy the male lead in a romance novel?
Yang Mu Ye seemed somewhat stunned and didn't understand his meaning.
Han Xize stood up, leaned forward and looked at him: "Xiao Ye, are you out of your mind? Five years of feelings, can it be that you like her just by recalling past favors? Don't you like her because of her own merits?"
Yang Mu Ye's eyes seemed to light up for a moment before dimming again: "She doesn't love me at all, otherwise why would she leave so carelessly."
Han Xize found it amusing and patted his face: "Xiao Ye, you're silly. You're the one who's infatuated with her, and you're the one who's pursuing her. If she hadn't been hurt at home, how would you have had the chance to take advantage of the situation? You've been infatuated with her for five years, so your feelings are deep. But she's only known you for a short time, even if she likes you, I'm afraid your foolishness has worn her out."
Yang Mu Ye only then felt sober, remembering that Xia Tian Miao hadn't appeared since that day at the coffee shop, and his heart began to panic. She had left AI, what chance did he have of getting close to her again? The heart that had finally softened was probably going to harden up once more.
Han Xize shook his head and sighed, "I was originally thinking of lending a hand, but now I'm mourning for you. Haha, I wish you all the best on your journey to chase after your wife."
Yang Muyexia's face sank as he slammed the folder over: "Don't gloat, next time I'll laugh at you." But in his heart, he was secretly calculating how to win back Xia Tianmeng. Was it still possible to clear things up with Lu Wanchi now?
This world has never had anyone who can stand still and wait for others forever.
Those who are loved often don't understand this principle, they always take advantage of being the one loved and recklessly squander the love given to them by others. They know that their slightest response is a favor, but who wants to be the recipient of charity forever? Who has the courage to continue loving when they can see the tragic ending with just one glance? It's always going to end in abandonment.
Lu Wanqi knew she was the one being pitied, and she yearned for Yang Mu Ye's slightest response, willing to give up everything for it, but what she got in return was just an illusion.
She lowered her head, tears dropping one by one onto the ground. Five years of love had only brought them half a month together. There was no romance, no sweet words, only anxiety and a ruthless goodbye.
Yang Muye felt embarrassed for the first time, after all, Lu Wanchi was the one who saved him, and he had given her hope only to disappoint her. Now, a single misunderstanding had dismissed someone else, and he still thought of himself as a bit of a scumbag.
"Me... Can I continue to like you?" Lu Wanqi choked out, looking so pitiful and helpless, "No need for you to like me back, just don't chase me away!"
Yang Mu Ye only then remembered that he had never been ambiguous with female colleagues in the company, and now it was his fault for not being able to refuse her, after all, she relied on this job to support her brother.
Lu Wanqi didn't hear his response and hastily lifted her head to look at him, her eyes filled with expectation and worry.
"Ah-choo." Yang Mu Ye rubbed his nose, avoiding her gaze and looking elsewhere, not seeing the profound meaning in her eyes for an instant. "You go to work now."
Lu Wanqi forced a smile and stumbled out the door.
"Oh no!" A cup of hot coffee suddenly splashed onto her chest, instantly staining a large area of her white blouse, and even the underwear underneath was visible, scalding her into a loud cry.
"Ah, I'm so sorry! My hand slipped and I didn't hold on tight. Are you okay, Assistant Lu?"
Lu Wanqi's face turned pale as he stared at her, his eyes filled with unconscious hatred. Secretary Wang, however, smiled and said: "Assistant Lu should go to the bathroom to change clothes, after all, being wet like this isn't very aesthetically pleasing."
Lu Wanqi trembled with her lips and hastily took a spare set of work clothes to the bathroom.
Faintly heard from behind was Secretary Sang's helpless voice: "You and she can't get along with something, doing it this way is too obvious."
Wang's secretary laughed so recklessly: "I've been looking down on her for a long time, and she's just pretending! The little third party is trying to seduce the president, what's the big deal? Looking at her dispirited appearance coming out, I knew it was because the president didn't want her anymore. Haha! She still dares to dream of marrying into a wealthy family, without even considering her own worth! I just love doing things that kick people when they're down!"
Lu Wanqi rushed into the bathroom, and in the large mirror, her pale face and dirty clothes reflected a dejected appearance that anyone could see. A surge of hatred swept over her, she clenched her fists, hating herself for being so weak, hating Yang Mu Ye's heartlessness, and even more hateful was Xia Tian Meng who got Yang Mu Ye's love.
She can imagine how many strange and mocking eyes she will face next, but she still wants to make a last-ditch effort for her own love!
She couldn't bear it and felt that giving up like this wouldn't do justice to her many years of deep feelings!
---------------------------
In the summer, Meng Ziran naturally didn't know about Lu Wanqi's mind. At this time, she was still attending the shareholders' meeting of Xia's company as a listener.
She looked at Xia Tianyu, who was smiling and listening to the shareholders' opinions, and was slightly stunned. She subconsciously smiled back at him when he glanced over, but quickly looked away, thinking to herself that Xia Tianyu was no longer as guarded against her as before, even allowing her to follow him and learn from him, and permitting her to attend internal meetings.
It's true that men think women become stupid once they fall in love.
But how did he know that her display of affection was true love?
