Newlywed and old love, the president's secret bride

Chapter 226 Next time, what excuse will you use to abandon me She stood there with her back to the window lattice, the scorching afternoon sun was filtered by the clean glass window and fell on her body, leaving only a shallow layer of tenderness lazy.

I don't know if it's because of her pregnancy, but she finally looks healthier and ruddy than before, and the lines on her face are not so angular and sharp.

Especially those two thin and soft eyebrows on the slender brow bone, if you inadvertently raise them slightly, you can reveal a soul-stirring charm.

Zhou Yicheng looked at the two for a few seconds, then consciously avoided, "Sir, I'll drive to the parking lot first, and wait for you at the main entrance."

The man didn't reply to his words, he didn't even turn his head to look at him, but just stared at the woman in front of him intently.

Duan Zijin saw his slowly deepening gaze, the man stood facing the sun, even the light couldn't penetrate the deep mist in his eyes.

So she understood in an instant that his heart was far from being as calm as it seemed on the surface.

Of course, this was the expression she practiced for a long time in front of the mirror in the women's bathroom before catching up.

If the relationship between the two wasn't so stiff, even if he didn't come to kiss her, she would rush up and hook the man's neck and ask, do you think I've become prettier?

Duan Zijin felt that the matter of inviting him to dinner was at least 80% successful.

But I didn't expect the man to look away calmly in the next second, and said lightly: "No need, I don't have time."

Duan Zijin was startled, and stopped him, "Jiang Lin, how long are you going to make such a fuss?"

trouble?The man paused, looked sideways at her, his thin cold lips slightly raised, showing a bit of unreasonable chill, "I thought I made my words very clear last night."

Duan Zijin's face turned pale, and he lowered his head slightly, "Yes, you made it very clear."

The man pressed the elevator, but before he left, he heard her weak mosquito voice: "Since you have no feelings for me, then what do you mean by coming to Shaw Brothers today, and what do you mean by making presentations and 3D models for me? "

To be honest, Jiang Lin had never seen her so humble.

If in the past, he said a few harsh words to her, she would either quarrel with him, or turn around and leave.

When did Duan Zijin ever show such a cautious and tentative look?

The man's eyes stayed on the top of her soft hair for a long time, without moving at all, "Business is business. Miss Duan, who gave you the confidence to make you think that I won a business for my company for the sake of you?"

Duan Zijin let out a long "Oh", "Then why are you afraid to have dinner with me?"

She squeezed into the elevator, ignored his alienation and indifference, raised her face and said: "You are afraid of being tempted by me, afraid of being soft-hearted. You don't really want to break up with me, you just want to teach me a lesson, I'm right Really, Jiang Lin?"

The man curled his fingers behind his back slightly.

"Actually, I can explain, I can explain everything clearly. If you are not willing to give me this opportunity now, then I will wait until you are willing." Duan Zijin spoke very calmly, but with unquestionable strength, " You're right, it's not easy to have someone who is in love with each other. If you miss this one, you may never meet the next one in your life. What you said last night made me very angry and sad, but compared to these, I know what's more important, I know what I want. So here I am—"

She stretched out her hand and smiled, "Mr. Jiang, I would like to treat you to dinner."

The man listened to her words, and every time he heard a sentence, the thin frost in his eyes became more condensed.

In the end, he looked at her bright smile, his black eyes narrowed into long and narrow arcs, "Duan Zijin, are you flattering me?"

Duan Zijin tilted his head and thought for a while, "Well, it can be said that I am pursuing you."

The man looked at her with lowered eyebrows, wondering if it was Duan Zijin's illusion, the temperature she felt on his expressionless face was colder than ever before.

Whether it was the previous quarrels, the cold war, or even the port in Greenland, he had never given her such a feeling.

That sense of distance.

That sense of powerlessness that she had been unable to arouse his emotions.

Duan Zijin's heart tightened slowly following these two feelings.

The man looked down at her with his head down, and said in a flat voice, "You just said that I was making trouble."

His voice was very calm, and his tone was so calm that he seemed to be reasoning with her, "Yuyou, is it in your eyes that you are the only one who tells me to break up and you dump me? Put this into my mouth, It turned out that I was making trouble, and you just need to give me some sweetness, and I should come back obediently, huh?"

He called her "Yuyou" again.

But Duan Zijin couldn't be happy at all, instead he felt his heart sinking a little bit.

Finally, there was a smile on his thin lips, but the smile was on the surface, not reaching the bottom of his heart, "What do you think of me?"

What on earth do you take me for.

Duan Zijin seemed to be pierced through the heart by a cold arrow.

Her pupils suddenly dilated, then slowly narrowed.

She couldn't refute Jiang Lin's words.

Because she really, really thought so until last night, even until he had just said that.

He loves her, he loves her so much.He won't really have the heart to break up with her, as long as she works a little harder and treats him better, he will turn back immediately.

Duan Zijin really thought so.

Maybe the unfeeling words Jiang Lin said last night made her hesitate and hesitate for a moment.

But today he appeared in the meeting room to save her at her most difficult and embarrassing time, as usual, every time she got into trouble, he came out to help her calm down the incident.

So she really thought that this man was still in her hands, as long as she held him a little harder, he would not run away, and as for the misunderstanding between them, it could be eliminated slowly.

It was only now that Duan Zijin fully understood - what really stood between her and Jiang Lin was not those misunderstandings.

It's her attitude.

She was indifferent, as if she was about to give up his attitude at any time.

Because, from beginning to end, she never gave this man a sense of security.

He couldn't tolerate her concealment, and she couldn't tolerate her cowardice that would abandon her armor and run away whenever she encountered the slightest difficulty.

What he needs is a wife who can be honest with him and believes that he can stand side by side with her to weather the storms together, not a woman who thinks about breaking up with him and hides everything for his own good.

Jiang Lin was right.

In fact, before going to Europe, before meeting Nancy, she thought about giving up this relationship more than once.Although she keeps saying that she loves him, she is always silently giving something that she thinks is great.When she really needs to choose, when this relationship needs to be affirmed by her, Duan Zijin is always avoiding, always pushing her forward behind his back.

It turned out that she was... such a weak person.

"Yuyou." He looked at her, the deep entanglement and layers of affection in his eyes had long since disappeared, but it was like a clear spring with still water flowing deep.

"You dare to say that I am making trouble, and you dare to think confidently that if you give me some sweets, I will come back, but I dare not. In the parks and seasides of Greenland, I don't even know, I even dig out my heart for you, but you If you still have to go, then what else can I use to keep you, and next time, what excuse will you use to abandon me."

Under his gaze, Duan Zijin lowered his head subconsciously.

His gaze was so light and light that it seemed weightless, but when it fell on her heart, it turned into a heavy stone.

"It's not because I'm avoiding you that I didn't eat with you." The man said in a gentle voice, "I've made an appointment with someone else tonight, and the dinner over there is more important."

As soon as the voice fell, the elevator had already reached the lobby on the bottom floor.

He stepped out with his thin and slender legs wrapped in trousers, without waiting for her.

Looking at his back, Duan Zijin suddenly felt that even if he hated her and satirized her, it was better than talking to her calmly like this.

That at least proves that he still has emotions that he can't let go of.

But now, Jiang Lin has obviously put her in a position that needs to be considered as well as other things, and the result of the consideration is that the dinner over there is more important.

Duan Zijin's heart was twisted to death, tightly clutching the file bag in his hand, and finally ran after him before his back was about to disappear.

"I'll prove it to you, Jiang Lin." She blocked him, her brown eyes full of determination, "This time, no matter what the difficulty is, whether you refuse or accept it, you have to watch me I will show you my determination."

The man looked at her, his tone was still flat, "It's up to you."

Duan Zijin's heart was stabbed by him, she gritted her teeth and told herself to hold back, just like when they first met eight years ago.

Wasn't Jiang Lin much colder then than now?Didn't she also persevere and chase him down?

"Sir." A respectful voice came from the direction of the revolving door.

Duan Zijin withdrew the hand that was blocking the man, turned around and saw Zhou Yicheng in a gray suit, "The car is already waiting at the door, shall we go there now? Miss Belle has been waiting for a long time."
