Deliberate favoritism, the cold-faced president surrenders obediently

Chapter 246 Pain

"Li Yanxiu, I know... I know you hate me, but I still can't help but miss you. Before, I was so immersed in feelings of inferiority and blame that I couldn't realize that my love for you was already deep and unforgettable, and it was becoming more and more twisted."

"My love for you has not weakened as time has faded, but has grown stronger. But I am a strong-willed person with low self-esteem. That day, you hesitated about marrying me. As a woman, I couldn't just cry and beg you to marry me, so I left you out of spite."

"I now know my own heart clearly. I just want to run back to you. I'm afraid you'll forget me and stop waiting for me."

The man paused for a moment, feeling inexplicably upset, but he didn't know what to say.

Every word she said was like a soft needle piercing his heart.

The pain was so sharp and continuous, as if a thread was being plucked from my chest, and it kept tugging at me.

He didn't know what to do at the moment, but he could only try his best to restrain the urge to reach out and respond.

He could no longer continue to cruelly crush her heart with a few powerless words like he had just done.

Now, he could only give her some material benefits as compensation for misunderstanding her and the harm she had suffered.

The most hurtful thing in this world is often a simple and direct rejection, without any hope, and with ruthless and indifferent compensation.

No matter how cold Li Yanxiu's attitude towards her was, she was obviously unwilling to give up, so she kept struggling and playing the emotional card with him.

Jiang Ning's persistent voice was filled with a wry smile. She looked at him reluctantly, "Are you really going to marry Lin Qian?"

Li Yanxiu didn't answer, turned around and walked towards the entrance.

She looked back and said in an almost pleading tone, "Please don't marry her, okay?"

"You said you would marry no one but me, but now you've married someone else right in front of me. Can you really be so cruel as to hurt me like this?"

Li Yanxiu frowned and reminded, "Jiang Ning, stop making trouble."

"Take good care of yourself during this period. If you feel ready, you can contact my assistant."

Jiang Ning finally asked him, "Are you really so cruel that you don't even want to see me?"

"That's not necessary."

Jiang Ning was extremely desperate and shook her head repeatedly.

At the moment when Li Yanxiu was about to walk out the door, she called out to him, "Li Yanxiu."

The man stopped.

"I don't want anything, but I hope you can promise me one thing."

"You said."

"I don't want anyone to know about this, including Lin Qian, because it's a huge shame for me. I can't stand other people looking at me strangely or sympathizing with me."

Li Yanxiu fully understood her feelings on this matter and felt guilty towards her.

Even without her saying it, he wouldn't tell anyone else about it.

He didn't look back, just responded.

"Okay, I agree."

Jiang Ning's breathing trembled slightly, and she turned back resolutely, "You can go now."

Li Yanxiu lowered his eyes and said nothing more, "Then you should have a good rest."

When his back completely disappeared, the woman looked away.

In an instant, the gloom in the woman's eyes disappeared. She walked to the place where he had just sat with a forced smile, sat down gently, and stroked the sofa where he had sat.

She couldn't marry him, but she couldn't just watch him marry another woman either.

Anyway, there is no evidence now that he is dead.

Fortunately, she locked up Howard's daughter at the time, so she could threaten him to cooperate without revealing any flaws.

Even if he did retrieve the surveillance footage from that year, what would he find? Nothing would be as true as the person involved had admitted.

There was a smile on the corner of her mouth, and the corners of her pale eyes were raised, revealing a smile of victory.

Based on her understanding of Li Yanxiu, if she opens her mouth now, it will arouse his guilt. If she does something even slightly, it will create a gap between him and Lin Qian. With more misunderstandings, they will naturally become estranged.

No matter how important she is in Li Yanxiu's heart, she will never be able to replace the guilt Li Yanxiu feels towards her.

When Li Yanxiu returned home, Lin Qian was packing her luggage.

Hearing the noise, she turned around.

Just as Lin Qian was about to put down the clothes in her hands and go over to him, Li Yanxiu hugged her from behind.

He didn't say anything, but just silently hugged Lin Qian tightly.

Countless images flashed through her mind in an instant, and her body stiffened a little. She glanced back and asked tentatively, "What's wrong? Is work not going well?"

The man's magnetic and deep voice sounded in his ears, "What are you packing for?"

"My company is sending me on a business trip to City H tomorrow."

"Business trip?" Li Yanxiu was a little surprised.

Looking at the neatly arranged clothes she put into the box, I felt a little uncomfortable.

Who is so blind as to arrange his people to go on a business trip?

Lin Qian nodded. "It wasn't a last-minute decision. Manager Li specifically added me to the list. It's a rare opportunity."

He asked, "What about me?"

Li Yanxiu rubbed his chin against her face. "Do you have the heart to leave me alone at home? I can't sleep without you."

The woman's face felt uncomfortable when his stubble rubbed against hers, so she dodged it and said, "Li Yanxiu, you should shave."

"Just shaved this morning."

She pretended to be disgusted, turned around and held his face, looking left and right, "That may be because your male hormone secretion is too strong. How can it grow so long in one day?"

The woman analyzed it carefully.

She thought that he really had too much testosterone secretion, after all, he had a great demand in that area, but he also looked a little tired, or maybe the work was too difficult and he was too tiring.

She hugged him distressedly and grumbled, "Even if you're busy at work, you still have to take care of yourself. The sun won't stop rotating just because you're at work or paying attention."

As soon as Li Yanxiu saw her, his tense body relaxed and his mood unconsciously improved.

He kissed her lips fiercely, his voice doting, "Well, I'll shave again after I take a shower, and I promise not to hurt you when we have sex later."

Lin Qian: “…”

The woman's face flushed unconsciously, "When did I say I wanted to be with you..."
