Chapter 131 - Her Trust Had Instantly Turned Into A Joke (2/2)

She had long since been pierced by the cold wind, and a bone-piercing chill seemed to spread to her heart. She moved her feet, which had already been frozen, and looking up at the occasional person walking in and out of the hotel, but she couldn't tell what kind of feeling she had right now.

A man and a woman alone in a hotel room for two and a half hours had not come out. Her trust had instantly turned into a joke.

Was she too serious? Or did she not understand Xian Zihao at all?

Jiang Ruolan should have left. Why wait here? After living for twenty-four years, she actually believed in emotions over and over again. She was too foolish.

Even though she couldn't help but shiver in the cold wind, she still raised her head to look at the hotel's door.

She should have trusted Xian Zihao.

Xian Zihao deserved her trust. Perhaps there was something that had delayed him. Perhaps they were just chatting inside...

Half an hour later, Jiang Ruolan still hasn't seen his figure.

Three hours without moving, with the northwest wind of G City blowing towards her.

She should be calm.

Jiang Ruolan dawdled in front of the entrance for a long time. She waited for another half an hour until the midnight bell rang in the middle of the city. When a taxi saw that she had frozen in the wind, it kindly stopped in front of her.

”Miss, where are you going? Should I take you to your destination?”

Jiang Ruolan stared blankly at the taxi in front of her, then looked at the female driver.

That's enough Jiang Ruolan.

Don't be like a fool anymore.

She moved her stiff legs to the side of the taxi and opened the door to get in.

Seeing how cold she was, the female driver's face turned pale. She turned up the heat and asked, ”Where are you going?”

”Marriott Hotel.”

Heaven blessed her, she could actually say such a clear word.

As the woman drove, she looked into the rearview mirror. She looked at Jiang Ruolan's dull eyes and said with a smile, ”Why did you stand outside that hotel for so long? I just passed by here when I took the guests to the X District and saw you standing there. Then I passed by here a moment later and still saw you still standing there. If my calculations aren't wrong, it should have been more than three hours, right? You've been standing there for three hours in such cold weather in G City. Please don't get sick from the cold. Do you want me to send you to the hospital first?”

”No need.” Jiang Ruolan's voice was a little hoarse. She looked at the neon light that was passing by and said, ”Just take me back to the Marriott Hotel.”

The female driver sighed and didn't say anything more. She quickly drove to the hotel.

Jiang Ruolan felt dizzy the moment she stepped out of the car. Her vision turned black, but she held back. Under the concerned gaze of the female driver, she walked in stiffly.

After returning to her room, she endured the pain in her head and quickly sent the information she had prepared during the day to the assistant she had worked with at the meeting yesterday.

Due to the meeting's report being released in the morning, Jiang Ruolan didn't have any important things right now.

Not to mention that the meeting had ended. Secretary Du had also said that there's nothing for her to do anymore, so she booked a plane ticket for tomorrow morning on the internet.

Jiang Ruolan turned her head to look out the window at the neon lights of the night. Under the city's dark sky, she suddenly felt that the city had always been so unfamiliar to her.

To Xian Zihao, perhaps he just liked her for a moment. Whether his feeling for her was deep or shallow, temporary or permanent, Jiang Ruolan didn't want to think about it.

She had been tempted by it once, and it wasn't like she had never experienced a betrayal. This time, at least, she wasn't completely caught up in it. She could at least tell herself to retreat as soon as possible.
