Chapter 477 She is righ (2/2)
Without stopping in her steps, her voice sounds again.
”What is it that you wanted to speak to me about?”
Shaking his head at how Inu treated him, Liu Shan felt like he was betrayed by his best friend. However, hearing his boss, he quickly brush it away and runs after her.
”Uncle Zhi wanted me to inform you that your cars have arrived at Imperial's port. He and Manager Luo are transporting them here.”
Yue Ling slows down to a stop as she reach the steps to the patio deck. Turning to look at Liu Shan, her expression was as calm as ever, but one can see a flash of excitement in her bluish green eyes.
”Perfect timing.”
Though it was quick, Liu Shan was able to see the look in her eyes. He couldn't help but struggle a very hard gulp and feel a shiver crawl down his spine.
The last time he was in the same car with her and she was the driver, he swore his soul had left his body and he saw his life flash before his eyes.
Oblivious to his thoughts, Yue Ling looks at him. She doesn't know why, but something inside her is telling her that despite his normal behavior, something is deeply bothering the man.
Maybe it's because he's been by her side for so long that she can read him like the back of her hand.
Thinking this, she decides to ask him.
”What's wrong?”
”Huh?”
Liu Shan was suddenly baffled by her question. He knows that she already saw through him, but he force a smile and chuckles.
”Heh heh, nothing is wrong.”
Not wanting to talk about the thing that is bothering him, he stride pass Yue Ling and steps onto the patio deck to go inside the house.
”Shan.”
From behind, Yue Ling calls after him. However, her tone of voice was not that of a superior to her subordinate, but that of a sister to her brother.
Liu Shan stops in his steps. His fists slowly curl into tight fists. He doesn't want to talk about how Ling Ni led him on and suddenly threw him in the gutter.
He had been going around flaunting his one-sided love for the woman, when the truth was, he was only a fool wearing a green hat.
Or maybe, she never even liked him.
His eyes slowly close as he inhales a deep breath that slightly shook his body.
”I know you of all people can see through me, but please don't ask me to tell you. I don't want to talk about it.”
Yue Ling stares at the man's back for a long second. Before, he was always cheerful, but for the past few days, she noticed that if no one speaks to him, he will immerse deeply in his thoughts.
Even when he was sitting in front of his laptop, he would often doze off. She and everyone else would have to call his name a few times before they could get his attention.
Lifting her leg, she takes a step forward then another and another. As she brush pass him, she pause to say something before continuing on inside the house.
”I won't ask you to tell me, but whatever it is that is bothering you, you should seek closure.”
She doesn't know what is bothering Liu Shan so much, but she can already guess what it might be. Even if he doesn't want to talk about it to others, he should at least know the reason why.
Watching her slender figure enter the house, Liu Shan stood unmoving from his spot.
She is right.
He had been ignoring all of Ling Ni's phone calls and messages because he didn't want to think about her or the pain inflicted on him. However, he can't keep running away.
Even if what she did was despicable, he should at least listen to her reason.
Maybe after hearing, he can move on without having his heart broken and the questions he want to ask her can finally be answer.
Thinking this, he walks towards the house. Once the situation with Chu Li Xiang is dealt with, he will call Ling Ni.
As a human being, he selfishly thought about his feelings only.
Everything that happened came from his point of view, the least he can do is listen to her point of view and try to understand why she is doing what she is.
