Chapter 727 - Going For A Holiday (1/2)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The Crown Prince’s office was s.p.a.cious, one of its walls covered entirely with floor-to-ceiling windows. The interior was designed according to his usual style, low-key but luxurious at the same time, cold but tasteful.

The woman sitting on the sofa could not help but stand up and walk towards the office table.

There were two photo frames placed on the office table.

One of them was of a young woman dressed in a professional suit and ponytail, looking clean and sharp. The other was of a family of three.

The pretty small boy was standing in the middle while the man behind was back-hugging the woman’s shoulders tightly. The woman and boy were smiling brightly, while the man who did not smile usually had a small smile as well.

It was a happy and warm smile.

She stared at the photo for a very long time, until some low but steady footsteps could be heard by the door.

She turned around, her eyes landing on the tall and black figure that had just appeared.

Her expression dazed out for a few seconds.

The man was wearing a black suit, with a perfectly white s.h.i.+rt inside. He had a hand in his pocket, while his other hand held onto a doc.u.ment file, looking cold and handsome.

His hair was cut really short, his hairline and sideburns clearly visible.

The distance between Xue’er and him was not huge, as their eyes met.

Time seemed to favor him especially, as his exquisite and handsome facial features matched with the image she had in her memory. He was still that fierce, dignified and arrogant man.

He had merely become even harder to read and more mature!

“Ah Han.” Xue’er smiled courteously. “It’s been a while.”

Mu Sihan hummed coldly in response.

In the past six months, he rarely smiled anymore. He spent most of his time on work. He was like a robot that never smiled, cried or had any feelings.

Through his hard work, his position in the Royal family had only become more and more stable.

Ye Fengjun did not want to see him being immersed in the pain of losing Nan Zhi, and had arranged for him to go for match-making sessions a few times. However, when those young ladies saw his icy cold face, they were so afraid they did not dare to speak anymore.

As a result, there was a saying in the upper-cla.s.s society in the Capital, that the Crown Prince was a cold-blooded Hades, contrasting terribly with the playboy Fifth Prince.

Mu Sihan’s eyes only landed on Xue’er for two seconds, before he strode to sit on the leather chair behind the office table. His deep black eyes had no emotion in them, looking like a placid and chilling lake. When he pa.s.sed by Xue’er, he merely left her with the scent of his refres.h.i.+ng and cold masculinity.

Xue’er’s head hung down slightly, disappointment apparent in her eyes. However, she controlled herself very quickly.

She glanced once more at the man who picked up his fountain pen and signed some doc.u.ments. She walked in front of the office table, saying softly, “Ah Han, you asked me to come look for you here when we met at the village last time. Are you blaming me for coming too late?”

Mu Sihan narrowed his dark eyes slightly, putting down the fountain pen as he said hoa.r.s.ely, “You’re not late. It’s just that whether or not you come now has no meaning to me anymore.”

He asked Xue’er to come over because he wanted to make his Ye Qing personality disappear and not hurt Nan Zhi anymore.

However, since Nan Zhi was no longer here, whether or not he was treated no longer had any meaning.

Xue’er stared at Mu Sihan, who was extremely cold to her. She felt extremely sad, a thin layer of moisture covering her eyes. “Ah Han, I heard that Miss Nan isn’t around anymore…”
