V4C95 – Natural (2/2)
Steven also knew that I was just replying perfunctorily, and didn’t know what to say, so he just said, “Mr. Liu, I have a request: If you ever find out the secrets of the ring, I hope you will tell me about it.”
“Hehe, you will have to wait for me to actually research and find out the secret,” I said with a smile.
Steven understood that I was only being polite and wasn’t going to actually study it, so he could only nod helplessly and say, “Thank you, Mr. Liu! I apologize for the inconvenience I caused you before. All right, I will leave first. I have a lecture in one of my institutes, so I must prepare for it beforehand!”
“It doesn’t matter, it’s fine that everything has been explained now. Walk carefully, I won’t send you out!” I said with a nod.
Now it seems that the matter has come to a close. I returned to B City first while Du Xiaowei stayed behind to deal with the matter of integrating Jake’s company with our own.
On Saturday, I returned to D City according to the agreement I had with Yang Mei, mainly to satisfy her mother Li Xiaohong. Although the atmosphere was quite harmonious, Mother Yang felt quite proud and elated before her relatives. However, since I already knew about Yang Mei’s feelings, I couldn’t face her directly and deliberately kept a little distance from her.
“Yang Mei also felt the change in me. She wanted to say a few things but hesitated just when she tried to speak. I had no alternatives either. As selfish a person can be, I naturally wanted to take Yang Mei as my own woman, after all, which man will ever reject any beauty he was getting! But my sanity told me that I should do it. I had no emotional relationship with her. All the women beside me had gone through a lot with me before we got together, while Yang Mei and I were only former colleagues. I don’t know what kind of sentiments she would have for me. Was it admiration? A favorable impression? Or was she just curious?”
Therefore, I didn’t want to make her regret anything for a lifetime just because of my selfishness. After all, I already have so many women and it’s impossible for me to give all my love to just one of them. Therefore, although the relationship between her and me was a bit ambiguous, there wasn’t any substantial advancement.
After returning, I found Chu Gao and asked him to find an opportunity to promote Yang Mei. I don’t know why I decided to do this. Was it because of my conscience or a man’s possessive desire that wouldn’t let me give up on her?
Chu Gao, this brat, immediately put on a sly smile and said while patting his chest, “Boss, you don’t even have to say. I will obviously be in favor of your woman!”
I bitterly smiled. Yang Mei and my relationship were quite ambiguous. It was no secret in the New Century Group, everyone knew of it. Especially, ever since my identity was exposed, everyone already considered Yang Mei as my woman in this place! Even Chu Gao thought so. I really feel that telling Chu Gao to look after her was simply redundant.
I knew that my explanations would be considered nothing here, so I didn’t refute.
