"It"s....Tian Min."Liu Rachael hesitated, before revealing to the Chairman of Cinopec Group, the ident.i.ty of the caller.
"Don"t go, stay with me."
Hearing the plea in the voice of Duan Chengyu made Liu Rachael waver for a moment.
"I"m sorry Chairman Duan, but I have to leave."
Regret flashed in the eyes of Liu Rachael, as she firmly turned down the suggestion of her boss
Not willing to take the rejection of his helper at face value, Duan Chengyu reached to pull her to him. Holding her in a tight embrace.
"Chairman Duan?!"
Liu Rachael could not hold back the shock she felt on seeing the way her boss was acting.
"Just for now, let me hold you."

"Rachael? Are you still there?!"
As though a bucket of ice cold water was poured on her, the voice of her ex seemed to bring Liu Rachael back to reality.
"I...I need..to go!"
With a look of full of disappointment, Duan Chengyu had to release his helper from his arms, watching as she resumed her conversation with her boyfriend.
"Where are you?"
"I"m at a cafe, I"ll text you the address. I"ll be waiting for you outside."
"What does he want to tell me?"
Despite wondering what her ex-boyfriend wanted to discuss with her, Liu Rachael could not bring herself to press him to say what he had to tell her on the phone.
"I"ll see you then."
It was after the call ended, that was when Liu Rachael turned to face her boss.
"Chairman Duan, I"m sorry, but I"ll be leaving. See you at home."
"Miss Liu, let me drop you off."
The two kept gazing at each other, as they fought the longing within their heart.
"I don"t want to inconvenience you."
"It"s okay Miss Liu, you"re not a bother."
"I"m sorry..but I have to go alone. I don"t want anymore misunderstanding! Please!"
"..."
Sighing in defeat, Duan Chengyu watched as the distance between him and his helper kept increasing, until he could no longer see a trace of her shadow.
An indescribable feeling of loss came over him, as watched her run into the night, the hand by his side formed into a fist as though to hold back from chasing after her, the Chairman of Cinopec Group was that of a man who lost something precious to him.
