Chapter 1103 - Chapter 1103: Riding the Wind and Asking the Moon (2/2)
ainte also looked in that direction, but he could no longer see zuo yue and the taxi. ainte suddenly raised his hand to his mouth, cleared his throat, and pretended to cough.”i didn’t expect miss zuo to come to king corporation for an internship so coincidentally. when i saw her outside the conference room today, i was also very surprised. however, i didn’t expect that in more than three years, that willful and eccentric young lady would actually transform into such a womanly girl.”
xu chengfeng did not say anything. the sky gradually darkened. the lights in boston were lit up. ainte stood behind him. he did not rush him but waited patiently.
after standing there for an unknown period of time, xu chengfeng slowly raised his hand and looked at the palm that had just held zuo yue’s hand. he slowly closed his hand and gently clenched it, but there was no longer any warmth that belonged to that young girl.

the taxi stopped at the apartment building for a moment. zuo yue got out of the car and walked into the apartment. as she walked, she was afraid that manager lin or someone else would follow her. she kept turning around to look at her surroundings. after making sure that it was safe, she entered the elevator.
after entering the house, she suddenly felt weak all over. she leaned against the door as if she had completely emptied herself. the bag in her hand fell to the ground, and her body gradually slid down the door until she finally fell to the ground.
the room was pitch-black, and the lights were not even turned on. only the moonlight outside the window shone in.
the man’s voice kept echoing in her ears.
“you don’t know me?”
that man’s gaze, that man’s actions, and the warmth of that man’s palm.
zuo yue slowly raised her hand and looked at her wrist. then, she closed her eyes and leaned her head against the door.
didn’t he say that he would never appear in front of her again? didn’t he say that he would never set foot in the united states again?
since she had left the company, why did she appear at the company she had just started her internship at three years later?
even if they occasionally met, shouldn’t they treat each other as strangers?
why did he suddenly come over and pull her back? why did he ask her in that tone?
after sitting quietly for a long time, zuo yue slowly stood up and turned on the light. she turned around and walked to the wine cabinet. she took out a glass and half a bottle of red wine. she poured half a glass of wine and put it to her mouth, but she paused for a moment and did not drink it.
for the past three years, she had relied on alcohol to numb herself every time she suffered from insomnia. now that the person had appeared in front of her and was no longer just in the memories she hated, was there a need for her to drink alcohol to numb herself?
in the end, they could only be strangers. if she took a step further, she would be doomed.
zuo yue thought for a while and finally turned around to pour the wine into the toilet bowl. she watched as the wine was flushed away, then turned around and put the cup aside. she picked up the bag on the ground and took out her phone and a few useful documents that she had brought back from the company.
there were two messages on his phone. one was a junk message, and the other was from manager lin.
[zuo yue, i just found out that the man is the president of the kp group who came to the company to inspect the cooperation today. do you know him?]
