Chapter 49 - Nian Junting Suddenly Feel Tender and Protective Toward Luosang (2/2)
Nian Junting gazed at her for a while, then sighed. He nodded knowingly and said, “I know, you’re worrying that your feelings for me might deepen if you work in my company. Don’t worry. Shengting is a large company, so you may not be able to see me a lot. You’ll forget me slowly in time. And many talented single men are working here, plus your social circle will change, meaning you’ll have more of a chance to find your other half as you would be among great people. They could not be compared with me, but they’re good enough to match you.”
He couldn’t think of any other reason for her to refuse such a generous offer.
Luosang felt helpless, wondering why he believed so firmly that she was in love with him.
Seeing that she remained silent, Nian Junting thought that his words might hurt her feelings. He didn’t want that to happen, as she had just done him a big favor. So he hurriedly cleared his throat and continued, “But of course, you’re a good person. It’s just that I don’t want to be with a woman who is older than me, and I am interested someone already.”
Luosang sighed silently. ‘Which poor girl is that?’ She wondered.
“Mr. Nian, I appreciate your kind offer, but I can’t accept it. I have no plans to stay in Xia City for long. I’ll leave when you recover,” said Luosang apologetically.
Nian Junting’s face darkened a little when he heard her, but then was occupied by a struggling look. “I remember that you said you have no family left in your hometown. Is it… Are your feelings to me so deep that you can’t even stand to stay in the same city with me?”
Luosang felt so embarra.s.sed when she heard that. A while later, she closed her eyes and nodded.
‘Forget it; just let him think whatever he wants,’ she thought.
Nian Junting opened his mouth slightly, but didn’t say a word. He felt a little uncomfortable. Quite a while later, he said very sadly, “In this case, I’ll have to respect your decision. But this time, you’ve helped me a lot, so I’ll aid you financially when you leave by giving you an added bonus.”
“Thank you,” Luosang’s eyes glowed. This time, she didn’t refuse him.
After all, she did need money.
