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

Before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Mu Sihan coldly. “How do you know about this?”

“Fourth Brother, don’t be angry. I was the one who told her.” The culprit, Lan Yanzhi, walked in from outside. He glanced at the icy cold Mu Sihan, then at Xue’er who looked like she was about to start crying. “I met Xue’er in the plane. We chatted a little and I accidentally told her.”

Mu Sihan pressed his slender fingers in between his eyebrows, saying with exhaustion, “Sister Xue’er, I’ll get Yi Fan to help you arrange a hotel for you to stay at tonight. You should return to Ning City tomorrow.”

Xue’er furrowed her eyebrows tightly.

Calling her over, then pus.h.i.+ng her away when he wanted, what did he treat her as?

Seeing that Xue’er was not replying, Mu Sihan raised an eyebrow. “Why? You have something to say?”

Xue’er stared at the man who was treating her so coldly, her heart tightened into a twisted lump.

However, who could she blame?

She was the one who did it to herself, she was the one who had caused her relations.h.i.+p with him to become like this.

They could not even be family towards each other.

She shook her head. “If you don’t want to see me, then I’ll buy a ticket to fly back later.”

Turning around, Xue’er walked out of the office. However, she could not help but turn around to look at him again. “Ah Han, I’m not the person I was in the past. I understand now that you cannot force feelings onto someone.” She paused for a while, her voice slightly choked. “Take care.”

After Xue’er left, Lan Yanzhi walked towards the office table, pa.s.sing him a cigarette. “Aren’t you a bit too harsh towards Sister Xue’er?”

Mu Sihan looked down to light the cigarette up, narrowing his dark eyes slightly. He exhaled a long breath of smoke before he spoke slowly, “It would only be heartless for her if I gave her hope.”

“If you’re not giving her hope, then why did you ask her to come over?”

Mu Sihan pursed his lips tightly, not saying anything.

In the past six months, Lan Yanzhi realized that he became less interested in speaking, only replying after Lan Yanzhi spoke a few sentences to him.

“Never mind, if you don’t want to say it, I can’t force it out of you either.” Lan Yanzhi paused for a second before he changed the topic. “Are you still not able to forget Nan Zhi?”

Mu Sihan smoked continuously, before he hummed lowly. Even though it had been six months, he had never stopped thinking about her.

At night, he would even dream of her occasionally.

He dreamt that she was back and was standing in front of her. However, when he was about to hug her, she disappeared again.

When he woke up, his chest hurt even more. All he could feel was a waste, bleak sense of sorrow and emptiness.

“Fourth Brother, apart from you not being able to forget Nan Zhi, it’s the same for Xiaojie as well. He’s still so young, haven’t you thought of spending more time with him?”

Mu Sihan tapped the cigarette into the ashtray, his eyes darkening slightly. “I did, but he said that he wanted to train and learn properly in the training camp.”

“He’s already been there for more than six months. Isn’t it time to go out for a vacation?” Lan Yanzhi took out his phone, finding a photo he had saved. “Look at this sea! My a.s.sistant’s best friend found this place when she went on her vacation a while back. It’s called Light Island, an island kingdom in the Pacific Ocean. It’s not very big, and the population size is rather small as well. I heard that the scenery there is like a painting. As it’s spring all year round, it’s very beautiful there. I plan to go there for a vacation. Do you want to consider coming along with Xiaojie?”

Mu Sihan was not in the mood for a vacation. No matter how beautiful a place was, to him, they were only a black and white photo.

Indeed, beautiful scenery needed to be admired with those who were important.

Seeing that Mu Sihan was not interested, Lan Yanzhi took back his phone. “Alright, alright. You can continue working. I’m going out to enjoy myself then.”
