C97 (1/2)
Although this situation was caused by He Xigu, the reason was because of her. An Hao lowered his eyes in guilt: ”I'm sorry.”
”Why did you say you're sorry? It's not your fault. ” As Chen Xiyang spoke, he reached out and pulled her into his embrace, then said softly, ”I still have a huge project on hand, but it's not over yet.”
An Hao was overjoyed. She raised her eyes and looked at him, ”What big project is this?”
”Lan Kong International's Lin Shi plans to build a water park at Beijing's North Mountain. With such a large project, he will definitely cooperate with the construction company.” Chen Xiyang stared deeply at her, paused for a moment, and continued: ”I just want to get my hands on this project, and I may need Lin Lang's help.”
This gaze from Chen Xiyang once again stung An Hao. Compared to the subconscious glance from before, this deep gaze made her feel even more uncomfortable.
An Hao pursed her lips and laughed: ”Then I'll look for his help. You guys were high school classmates, and our relationship at that time was very good. He should have helped us out, right?”
As she spoke, she lowered her eyes and tightly held the blanket under her with her slender hands.
Chen Xiyang looked at her, and rubbed the back of her head. He did not tell her that he and Lin Lang were actually not the same type of people, that he was the child of a poor family, and that he was the second generation from a rich family. The reason they were together in high school, was only because of the sudden death of Lin Sanxiao's grandfather, who was an official.
In order to obstruct his biological parents, he ran over to Beijing and Chuan City to attend a mediocre high school, where he would hang out with poor kids. When the period of rebellion was over, he would naturally leave them and return to the life of a rich person.
From the past ten years, Lin Sanjiu could tell that Lin Sanjiu did not contact him even once. He did not treat him as a friend, otherwise, how could he not have received any news? Technology is so advanced these days.
Thus, he did not have any confidence this time. If he could not get help, then An Hao would be his only hope.
He stroked her hair time and time again. However, if he were to tell her at this time, she would probably be conflicted. He sighed and said, ”Go to sleep. You still have to work tomorrow.”
An Hao sat without moving. After a long while, she raised her eyes and looked at Chen Xiyang, and said softly, ”Xi Yang, do you mind if I still come into contact with Lin Lang? Actually, I'm going this afternoon to... ”
”You don't need to explain. I really don't mind.” Chen Xiyang interrupted her words, raising his hand to scratch her nose: ”You told me before, you loved me so much, if I still doubted your feelings for me, then I would be too heartless, right?”
His words were gentle and his smile was warm, but An Hao could still feel the faint impatience on his face, it was not that he did not mind, but he did not want to hear her explanation.
Why didn't he want to hear her explanation? An Hao thought bitterly. Presumably, he knew that even if she explained, he wouldn't be able to believe her completely, right? I might as well not listen.
She suddenly felt that it was a bit ironic and couldn't help but let out a sneer.
Chen Xiyang was stunned by her laughter: ”What's wrong?”
”Nothing, I just think these things are pretty funny.” An Hao said as he laid back onto the bed, he looked at Chen Xiyang and said: ”Turn off the lights, you still have to work tomorrow.”
The editor had given her two months of marriage leave. Based on the current situation, the Maldives had been ruined.
On the second day, when An Hao opened his eyes, he had already gone to work. She rubbed her aching head a little, but actually, she did not sleep well last night.
