How many loves can be relived in the story of a devoted CEO pursuing his wife?

Lin Xuedong and A Xiao were the last to enter.

"Good morning, Mr. Lin!" Everyone stood up and greeted him.

Lin Xuedong calmly took his seat in the chairman's seat and gestured for everyone to sit down and begin the meeting.

The compilation process is proceeding in an orderly manner.

This collaboration with the Yoshimoto Group has been a resounding success, not only in terms of renewal but also in the signing of a major contract worth a staggering $9 million.

As agreed, over the next five years, the Lin Group will be responsible for supplying the main control board for the fully upgraded 5G network of the communication system equipment of the Yoshimoto Group, and will also undertake the corresponding maintenance work.

This is undoubtedly another major achievement for the Lin family in expanding their business empire.

Liu Sisi succinctly outlined the key points of the project one by one.

Her composure in every gesture was captured in Lin Xuedong's deep eyes.

Because of his infatuation, he was lost in thought several times, and his calm heart was constantly rippled.

Time passed quickly, until applause rang out.

The meeting concluded with Lin Xuedong announcing a celebration at the Rich Club on Friday evening.

After 5 p.m., the parking lot was filled with people picking up their cars and leaving after get off work.

Lin Lan took Liu Sisi's arm and walked towards her Mercedes-Benz.

In the passenger seat, Liu Sisi scrolled through her phone and asked, "Lanlan, what do you want to eat later? I'll order takeout."

"Either is fine." Lin Lan turned on the turn signal and gripped the steering wheel tightly with both hands.

As soon as the car left the main road, her beautiful phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and she remained speechless for a while at the congested traffic.

"I think it'll take at least an hour of traffic to get to your Meilin Garden. You'd better figure it out yourself."

Liu Sisi glanced at her and continued operating her phone.

Halfway there, her phone rang.

Seeing that it was his mother calling, he pressed the answer button.

"mom?"

"Yes, I just got back to China today."

"Okay, I'll be back for dinner Saturday night."

"Okay, see you then, bye-bye~"

"Is that your aunt?"

Liu Sisi nodded.

"Saturday, another blind date, huh?" Lin Lan glanced at her mockingly, then sighed wistfully. "Honey, look at our luck with marriage, how come it's so weak?"

The car continued on for quite some time.

"You know, we're high-paid white-collar workers, after all. We're educated and have good taste. I wouldn't say we're stunningly beautiful, but we're certainly quite pretty. I really don't understand why we haven't had a romantic encounter? We have to go on blind dates all the time, it's so tacky!"

"It's because my family is anxious. Finding a partner is easy, but true love is hard to come by. We're both 27, of marriageable age, okay? It would be strange if they didn't pressure us." Liu Sisi gave a bitter smile; she felt the same helplessness.

This generation of young people faces all sorts of pressure and pressure from their families.

Who doesn't do nothing but sigh?

Suddenly, the image of Lin Xuedong's heartfelt confession flashed through my mind.

She glanced at Lin Lan sideways, gently bit her lip, and tentatively asked, "Lanlan, of all those promising young men you met before, really not a single one was to your liking?"

"No." She answered decisively and directly.

"What about your brother? He... isn't he also going on blind dates? What do you think about that?"

Liu Sisi felt uneasy; she knew Lin Lan was avoiding the issue.

However, looking at their relationship as a whole, it seems difficult to break through, and dragging it out indefinitely is not a good solution.

Lin Lan frowned slightly.

This is a dead end!

She knowingly did something wrong...

The car pulled into the parking lot, and as she parked, she replied playfully, "Hey, hey, don't rush. Let me eat and drink my fill later, and tonight, we'll chat until we can talk the whole moon down from the sky. Okay?"

"Alright, alright, let's talk it all out." Let's chat until the world is dark and we're all talking at once.

Who cares!

After getting off the car, Liu Sisi took her arm with one hand and dragged the suitcase with the other, and walked towards the elevator lobby.

Her bedroom is located on the 10th floor, a two-bedroom apartment of about 80 square meters.

Since starting university, Liu Sisi left her hometown and came to S City alone to work hard and make a living.

At the beginning of this year, she finally saved enough for a down payment and bought her first house.

Although, there is the burden of dealing with a high mortgage.

However, having your own little home in City S is a very happy thing, and it's more reliable than blind dates.

After washing up and getting ready, the takeout arrived.

Pizza, pasta, chicken wings, and snacks go very well with the red wine I have at home.

After a long, arduous night, the two sat on the carpet in front of the sofa, leaning back lazily against it.

They started chatting while sipping their red wine.

"Sisi, I've never experienced love before. My dream is to find someone I love and who loves me back, and then marry for love."

"You say it's wonderful to be able to fall in love freely? Why the hell is it so difficult?"

“Miss Lin, it’s useless to just think about it without liberating yourself. The road has to be walked by people.”

Lin Lan gently rested her head on Liu Sisi's shoulder, muttering, "I don't know how to get through this. It's so frustrating."

"Sisi, you and Zhou Zhichen had at least three years of youthful innocence. Even though you broke up for three years, you still had a free love relationship."

"And me? I entered the Lin family at the age of eight. The first person I saw when I saw my 'brother' was... well, my mind went completely blank for a moment, as if I had been frozen in time."

"He was already 20 years old then, so handsome and dashing..."

"This is terrible!"

From then on... he was everywhere in my life!

"You're just too immersed in the role, aren't you?" Liu Sisi couldn't help but mock her, while inwardly wondering how to get back to the main topic.

“You’re being crushed by your subconscious first impression. Lin Xuedong is certainly outstanding, but his status is what it is. Besides, you haven’t dared to do anything out of line over the years.”

"Sometimes, it comes down to feeling."

"Don't you sense whether he feels the same way?"

Lin Lan slumped her shoulders in dejection, her heart growing cold. "I'm certain, absolutely certain, that he didn't."

Her eyes became vacant; indeed, the goddess had a heart, but the king had no dream.

She was always the one experiencing her first crush, and her one-sided unrequited love made her a fool, automatically blocking out her fantasies.

Sometimes, she felt that this kind of bitter, unrequited love was meaningless and quite tragic.

“Lanlan, I understand your concerns. There is indeed a sense of distance due to his status, and besides, he has been independent for a long time, so your relationship isn’t as close anymore.”

Liu Sisi paused, glanced at her expression, and continued, "Actually, there's a gap between ideals and reality. Either you keep that beautiful feeling deep in your heart and live your life as usual, or you're brave enough to take the initiative and find the answer instead of waiting in vain?"

"Consider it an explanation to myself; even in defeat, there is honor."

In fact, Liu Sisi was feeling uneasy.

If they were truly interested in each other, things would have happened long ago.

Because when love comes, nothing can stop it.

But, over the years, she has witnessed Lin Lan's unrequited love.

Not daring to advance yet unwilling to retreat, the contradiction is maddening.
