Keeping the promise

Chapter 253 The Disappearing Lady

As he spoke, he walked closer and took a closer look. It was true! The supervisor's heartbeat accelerated instantly, as if it was about to jump out of his throat, and cold sweat even broke out on his forehead.

You know, there has been a rumor in the company that the president's wife has passed away, and it has been more than ten years, and now this figure is actually standing here alive.

The supervisor's heart was filled with fear and surprise, and he kept asking himself what to do.

The supervisor did not dare to be negligent and said quickly: "Ma'am, I'm sorry, I didn't recognize you. I will get you the president's special elevator right away." His voice was flattering and apologetic, and his body was slightly bent, making a gesture of invitation.

The newcomer next to him looked confused and asked curiously, "Supervisor, who is this woman?" The newcomer's eyes were full of curiosity and confusion.

The supervisor glared at him and said in a low voice: "She is the president's wife. What happened back then was very complicated. Don't ask too many questions, or you might lose your job!" The supervisor's voice was stern and hurried, warning the newcomer not to meddle in other people's business.

After that, the supervisor respectfully took Zheng Wancheng to the elevator and pressed the button for the exclusive floor. His hands trembled slightly, and beads of sweat on his forehead slid down his cheeks.

The elevator door slowly closed, and Zheng Wancheng's mood became more complicated. She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down, but the waves in her heart could not be calmed down.

Zheng Wancheng took the elevator all the way to the top floor. As the elevator went up, her heartbeat accelerated unconsciously, and she felt nervous.

The elevator door slowly opened. Li Qian had been waiting there. With a respectful look on his face, he bent down slightly and gently opened the office door for her.

Zheng Wancheng walked into the office and his eyes fell directly on Li Yunting who was busy at his desk.

He is still as focused on his work as before, and his upright posture and serious expression seem to have never changed.

But compared to the past, there seemed to be a few more traces of time on his face. The slightly wrinkled brows and the faint fine lines at the corners of his eyes all told the story of time.

Zheng Wancheng couldn't help but feel a ripple in his heart, with emotion and a little heartache.

Li Yunting noticed Zheng Wancheng's arrival and hurriedly stood up, with a hint of surprise and panic in his eyes.

His heart was like a lake with a stone thrown into it, and waves were instantly surging. He was surprised by her arrival, but panicked because he didn't know how to face her.

Zheng Wancheng didn't exchange any pleasantries. He walked straight to the sofa and sat down, crossing his legs. His posture was elegant yet a little distant.

She was the first to break the silence and said, "You don't have to clear those obstacles for me." Her voice was calm, but her heart was not as calm as she seemed. She was trying hard to suppress her complicated emotions.

Li Yunting walked to the chair opposite her and sat down slowly, his eyes never leaving her face, his eyes full of affection and persistence.

He said, "I don't want you to feel like you owe me anything, I just want to do this myself." His voice was low and sincere, with a hint of barely perceptible nervousness. His hands unconsciously clenched into fists, his palms already covered in sweat.

Zheng Wancheng raised her head slightly and looked straight into his eyes. A hint of helplessness and confusion flashed in her eyes. She said, "But you making this will make me very confused. Our relationship shouldn't be like this." She was struggling inside. On the one hand, she was touched by his actions, but on the other hand, she was afraid of being hurt again.

Li Yunting sighed softly, his heart full of regret and self-blame, and said: "Wancheng, I know I have done too many wrong things in the past and hurt you. But I really want to do something for you, even if it's just a little bit, to make your path a little smoother, I will feel better." His voice trembled a little, and his eyes were full of pleading.

Zheng Wancheng frowned, her heart full of confusion, and said: "You don't have to be like this, we have already..." She didn't finish her words, but it seemed that she had said everything.

Li Yunting interrupted her and said anxiously: "No, Wancheng, in my heart, we have never ended. I have been waiting for an opportunity to make up for the past." His eyes were firm, as if he had made some kind of determination.

Zheng Wancheng was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "Li Yunting, some things happened and they are gone. You can't change them by doing this now."

There was a hint of despair in her voice, and she turned her head to look out the window, not wanting him to see the tears flashing in her eyes.

The atmosphere in the office became extremely solemn, and both of them fell into deep thought and entanglement.

Time seemed to stand still at this moment, with only their heavy breathing echoing in the air.
