Chapter 442 - Side Story 6: In a Relationship (1/2)

Han Yue Xiu thought that there was probably something wrong with how her brain worked. Previously, Song Yi had asked her to give him a chance for him to start over, and she had rejected him.

Though she had known this man for years, Han Yue Xiu had never thought that she would have feelings towards him. She had thought of him as a good employer, mentor, and later, a good friend.

But it seemed that there was something that had possessed her when she agreed to give him a chance.

When Song Yi left her apartment, Han Yue Xiu had gone back into her room and his question popped into her mind again. His question and her reply replayed in her mind over and over again until she was too embarrassed to think about it.

”Could you give me a chance?” Song Yi had asked. ”Can we start over again?”

At that time, she was staring back at him and saw how anxious he was as he was waiting for her answer. Seeing the once arrogance Song Yi was acting this way made her wanted to laugh. But then, there was a tug at her heart and there was a voice in her head telling her that she should agree.

”Alright.” Han Yue Xiu had smiled. ”Let's start over again.”

”Aaaah!!”

While hiding her head under the duvet, Han Yue Xiu started to mutter a few curses. ”Han Yue Xiu, ah Han Yue Xiu… how can you agree just like that? What was wrong with your head?”

She had thought that perhaps, the way he was very nice towards her parents had clouded her thinking. But knowing herself, she was not someone who would be easily swayed.

Han Yue Xiu began to think about the changes in Song Yi and knew that he had tried hard to change. At least, when he was around her, he was not as domineering as he used to be. He would often turn to her and ask for her opinion before he made a decision.

Anyway, it was not as if she was not aware of the things Song Yi had done for her.

One of the female employees in the company had accidentally spilled out Song Yi's plan to protect her from Miss Fang. At that time, when she had heard about it, Han Yue Xiu had laughed. Since she had no plan to be harassed by Miss Fang, Han Yue Xiu had decided to pretend that she knew nothing about it.

Her opinion towards Song Yi had had slowly changed for the better.

Although she was more comfortable to be around Song Yi, Han Yue Xiu was not sure whether she had a feeling towards him. Anyway, even after Song Yi had told her that he had liked her in the past, Han Yue Xiu had never thought of being in a relationship with him.

”Forget it,” Han Yue Xiu sighed as she looked at the ceiling. ”I can slowly figure out this thing. If I don't feel that way towards him later, I can always tell him. We have only started to date. It's not that we are going to get married soon.”

With that mind, Han Yue Xiu finally pushed Song Yi and their new relationship away from her mind.

However, the thoughts and worry returned as she stepped into the office the next morning.

Song Yi had gathered everyone to discuss their projects in the meeting room and for a while, Han Yue Xiu was afraid that Song Yi was going to do something big, like announcing their new relationship to everyone.

Seeing the way Song Yi had a serious look on his face as he explained to everyone about the next phase of their project made her wonder if everything that happened yesterday was merely a dream.

Song Yi did not look as if he was affected by anything, and she was the one who had overthink everything.

After almost two hours of discussion, everyone went back to their table to continue their work.

”What's wrong?” Han Yue Xiu blinked. Her heart started to thump wildly as she saw the big smile and she could not help but wonder what he was planning to do.

”Han Yue Xiu.”

”Huh?”
