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

”Let's go on lunch together.”

”Lunch?”

”Hmm,” Song Yi nodded. ”What do you want to eat?”

Han Yue Xiu opened her mouth to answer but paused when she heard his voice again.

”This is the first day of us getting together, we should go somewhere special, right?” Song Yi said. A thought crossed his mind and the smile on his face disappeared and was replaced with worry. ”Han Yue Xiu, you… you weren't thinking of changing your mind, right?”

”Of course not.”

Song Yi let out a breath of relief and the expression on his face brightened up. ”That's good. Then, you should think about what you want to eat and where do you want to go. I'll come over to your office to pick you up later.”

”Oh.” Han Yue Xiu nodded. Song Yi stared at her face for a few seconds longer before he turned around and leave the meeting room. When he disappeared from her vision, Han Yue Xiu was still in a daze.

...

It was after a few weeks that Han Yue Xiu had finally gotten used to the fact that she was dating Song Yi.

Once she was aware of it, Han Yue Xiu began to think about her feelings and tried to cultivate her affection towards Song Yi. Surprisingly, it was not very hard. She paid attention to everything that Song Yi had done, and there were times and moments that made her heart flutter.

Han Yue Xiu thought that she could really get used to being around with Song Yi as her girlfriend.

Their progress was neither fast nor slow.

They started holding hands, kissing and they were always together as if inseparable. But still, they managed to conceal their relationship from their employees.

Han Yue Xiu had thought that they shouldn't tell those guys anything as their relationship was still in an early stage. Moreover, she was afraid that if this relationship did not work out, it would cause a problem for their project and company.

Though Song Yi had wanted to announce their relationship to the world, he can only listen to Han Yue Xiu's opinion.

”Meet your parents?”

”You are aware that my parents had arranged for me to marry Miss Fang in the past.

”Hmm,” Han Yue Xiu nodded.

Previously, she had asked him about Miss Fang and Song Yi had clarified that he had no relationship with that woman. Everything between them was just something that the elders had planned, but later, his elders had allowed him to withdraw from that relationship when he told them that he had no feelings towards Miss Fang.

Han Yue Xiu had decided to trust in his words. Anyway, if she found out that he was lying to her, she was going to beat him to death.

Song Yi lowered his gaze. ”My elders were worried I might not be interested in women because I keep on giving them excuses whenever they asked me to bring home my girlfriend. Anyway, after my engagement with Miss Fang was dissolved, some rumors were circulating in my elders' social circle.”

Han Yue Xiu stared at him speechlessly.

”What do you say?” Song Yi continued. ”Do you want to meet my elders and help me dispel this rumor?”
