Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When Su Lenghan entered the coffee shop’s private room, he looked at Yun Bixue who was staring out of the window. With a light pink dress and hair tied up in a loose ponytail, her entire body exuded a confident and elegant aura.
He couldn’t help but feel his heart stir. Ever since she left him, she became more and more beautiful, but he knew that her beauty was not for him to admire.
Hearing his footsteps, Yun Bixue turned her head and stood up, smiling elegantly. “You came. Please take a seat.” Her words felt distant and polite, as though she was meeting a client.
Even if he felt slightly uncomfortable inside, he had no choice. Su Lenghan nodded his head and sat down.
Yun Bixue looked at him. He had lost so much weight that he was almost unrecognizable. Seeing his poor complexion, she asked, “Why are you so pale?”
“I’m fine. Probably didn’t get enough sleep.” If he were to lose his tight rein on his emotions, just a single word of concern from Yun Bixue would be enough to make him cry. Even his wife wasn’t as attentive to his complexion. Instead, it was Yun Bixue who noticed it. She was still as attentive and thoughtful as she was before.
Yun Bixue nodded and said, “Don’t mind the media too much. After all, you’re about to become a father. You need to take care of yourself, so you can, in turn, take care of your child. Since I promised to help you, there shouldn’t be too much of a problem.”
Hearing Yun Bixue’s words, Su Lenghan felt increasingly guilty. Comparing how he treated her back then to how she was treating him now, he felt really shameful of himself.
After speaking, Yun Bixue realized that Su Lenghan kept his head lowered. She asked, “What’s wrong?”
Su Lenghan took a deep breath to compose himself before raising his head. He looked at her in the eye and said, “Thank you.” At that moment, it was as if he had regained his n.o.ble and gentle poise.
Yun Bixue looked at Su Lenghan, who seemed no different from his past self, and smiled. “There’s no need to thank me. I’m helping you because I believe in your capabilities. Besides, I’m not helping you for free since I want ten percent of the stocks.”
“That’s no problem.” He didn’t think it would be this easy.
“Su Lenghan, why are you so calm about this? Aren’t you worried that I might take over Su Family Organization’s business?”
A gentle glint flashed across his eyes as he smiled delicately. He knew deep inside that he would be willing, even if he had to give half of Su Family Organization to her.
“Yun Bixue, even though I’m like this right now, I’ve recently started to see the past clearly. If I still didn’t trust you, then there’s something wrong with me.”
Yun Bixue chuckled. “Thank you for trusting me. I will send someone over to your company tomorrow. He will help you, but you have to cooperate.”
“Okay!”
When they reached an agreement, it was as if the past events had faded into smoke.
Although they used to be engaged, both of them had their own partners now. Even if they had unhappy memories, now that they have met again, there was still a sort of intimacy and familiarity between them.
Yun Bixue felt that the love and hatred she had for Su Lenghan had both faded, that was why she could smile at him so easily.
After both of them signed the contract, Yun Bixue said her farewells. Su Lenghan offered to send her off, but Yun Bixue refused. They no longer had any relations.h.i.+p, so she didn’t want to be misunderstood by others.
Su Lenghan’s elegant eyes looked at Yun Bixue’s retreating figure and felt a sting in his heart. The feeling of losing something was clearly conveyed to his heart, causing it to ache painfully.
…
When Yun Bixue left the coffee shop, she pa.s.sed by Star’s Fate Jewelry shop and was attracted by a diamond ring inside the display window. Seeing its sparkle, she couldn’t help but enter the shop.
