Chapter 137: Are You Worrying About me?
It almost felt like a ridiculous question when Lin Yazhi first heard the request from her brother.
Like how the hell did my brother fall for Zhaoyang all of the sudden?
Wait! Was there a plot twist that I’m not aware of after Zhaoyang left the office yesterday?
The question made Lu dodged her sight.
She gazed at her desktop background. It was a giant tree fully bloomed with cherry blossoms. She could still feel the scent of spring knotting her nose as she thought back to those days, of the one man she loved.
I was taking a walk with Chen along a trail of blooming cherry blossoms.
We would exchange gazes from time to time and it was always awkward for me when I was caught peeking him, red-handed. While I was deeply embarrassed by my behavior, you were there, smiling like the sun and it warmed my heart…
I would love you.
And I’ll never love again.
Even if you are no longer here with me, you are always inside my heart.
My past, my love – an interlude of my life, written in the dark, forever unknown by the people.
“Could it be … the Prez?” Whispered Lin.
It might be a speculation said softly, yet it rang clearly at the office, that a few girls could discern it. They could not help but to peek out of the corners of their eyes, all ears.
“Aren’t you a free girl?” Said Lu with a glance, as her fingers knocked each key hard, “It would be helpful if there is no more discussion regarding your elder brother. It’s impossible that I’ll date him.”
“Alright! But, could you at least tell me who that man is. I will never tell him that, I swear!”
Lin said to her ears, with full curiosity.
That was the first time Lu got so close to a woman.
“I love…” She backed away from her, “Myself. Just good old me.”
“Ew… Narcissism,” teased Lin. That was not the answer she sought but she had used up Lu’s patience of the day. She had to return to her seat and behave.
The landline rang, as strangely hardworking Huo was, informing her to contact all departments for an unscheduled meeting regarding the…
Ugh!
The moment Lu heard the briefing from Huo, she was starting to feel the malicity from this man.
Apparently, Huang Dong and President Du initiated a theme park project and her beloved President Huo decided to build a crematory right next to it, along with a cemetery on the other side.
Oh wow, way to go, Huo. You just want to kill a joyful theme park even before the layout was plotted. Who with a right mind would visit a theme park surrounded by funeral industries?
They might as well consider making a full swing haunted mansion theme park, maybe that could help.
And Huang Dong knew none of Thunderbolt’s latest plan yet.
By the time he knew the news, he probably had dumped in all his money, including his pension for the project, only to see the theme park filled with nobody but otherworldly beings and probably get killed by despair.
I knew Huo would not let Huang Dong go so easily…
And Huang Dong thought he got himself a deal for messing with the devil.
My condolences for his foolishness.
The meeting called for a dismiss as people left the meeting room one by one, while Huo rested on his chair like a lord as he fiddled with his smartphone.
“Sir?” Lu was bewildered, “Are we leaving?”
Huo Yunting clipped his iPhone with his two fingers, as he passed her a glance, “I just wanted to inform you that… your little classmate, Tang Mu has left this city, while Lin Jingzhi…”
“There was nothing between us since the very beginning! Why do you see the need to do this?”
Lu was right.
Lin Jingzhi might have tried to mess with his woman, but he was still the mayor’s son.
As long as they still resided in the city, they had to give minimal regards to the mayor.
It would be a bloodshed if the bullet was launched at a public figure.
Huo Yunting made a spin on his chair and stopped before her, his eyebrows lifted.
“Are you worrying about me?”
“Probably.”
Lu was confident that the devil was fearless against this but seriously she did not see the point of making more enemies because of a non-existent scandal, especially when she undoubtedly felt that it was impossible for Lin Jingzhi to fall in love with her at first sight, unless someone was doing something…
Wait…
Could it be?
Could it be the fact that Mo Shan had probably known something, thus all these dramas?
