Chapter 266 - He is back...

" Ah, finally it's over." Xu Nuan g.r.o.a.n.e.d tiredly as she closed the file and massaged her throbbing temples.

It's been a long week for her. After the incident at the club, Tan Hai got rusticated from the college. She was expecting an uproar in the college but surprisingly nobody from the students that were present at the party babbled about it, not even Tan Hai. 

He left the college, while those who attended the party avoided her as if she was a zombie. Only Ye Yijun talked to her like usual. Seems like he is not scared by her, unlike others. 

Meanwhile, Xingren's matter at the college has subsided to some extent too. Gu Zhang had gotten her to drop out of college but everyone knows that she had no choice but to leave the college. 

Who can dare to attend college after what happened? 

The investigation by the police was still going as they're trying to dig more into Xingren's past deeds. However, it's not long until word about this matter spreads to everyone in the city and they will find out about Xingren's real identity.

Gu Zhang can shut up the people for a while but not forever. Who can resist a hot gossip like this? 

**

Today, after attending the classes, she came to the office to deal with her work. Since she is not working full time anymore and her multi-tasking ability, she is managing both sides fine. 

Everyone in the office is jealous of her privilege to work remotely. But now even the CEO of the company can't do anything since Xu Nuan was hired based on an exclusive contract. 

She is not similar to other employees. As her contract said, she had made the group successful right after they debuted. Now no one can doubt her capabilities, not even Wang Meili. 

On top of that, seeing the girls' success and how they managed to get the attention of the people as soon as they debuted, the company allowed her to have an assistant who helps her to look after girls when she is not around. 

Seeing the facilities she was getting, Wang Meili was not pleased. 

However, now she can't dare to get in her way. Whenever she sees her, she avoids her and probably curses her inwardly every time she sees her group getting a new endors.e.m.e.nt or any opportunity to shine. 

Not only the endors.e.m.e.nts or commercials, but the girls were also getting the acting offers as well. She was reluctant for them to try acting for now because they're good at singing and performing. 

However, it doesn't mean that they will be good at acting as well. 

If by any chance, they could not deliver the emotions of a character properly, they will be bashed for their acting. It will only affect the image they have built for themselves with their performance and music. 

-

After wrapping up her work, Xu Nuan looked at the time and realized that it's already past 9. She had messaged Han Zihao earlier that she will be late today. 

Like always, he said that he will pick her up after work, but she rejected him because she doesn't want to bother him. There is no need for him to come and pick her up all the way here when she can simply grab a taxi from outside. It will be time-saving!

She turned off the computer and picked up her sling bag and phone before leaving the office. There was no one in the office since everyone had already left. 

The lights were off and only the corridor's dim lights were turned on for people like her, who stay overtime. 

When she walked out of the building, her eyes lit up to see the person standing, waiting for her. 

She halted in her steps and squealed in surprise, " Lin Hui? When did you come back?" 

Lin Hui smiled at her seeing her getting excited and waved at her. He was back a few days ago but he didn't dare to face her. He was visiting her company for a few days and always leaves or hides away whenever he sees her coming out of the company. 

He didn't dare to face her. He was afraid that her response to his feelings won't be as positive as he wants. 

But he cannot stay as a coward forever and run away from the situation. 

-

She walked to him and slapped him on his shoulder before excitedly jumping to hug him, " Where were you? You said that you were away for work but what took you so long?" 

He smiled at her, " I will tell you everything. First, take this." He handed her a bouquet of bright yellow daffodil flowers. 

Her eyes lit up upon getting a beautiful bouquet from him. " You brought flowers for me? Thoughtful as always." She commented and smelled their fragrance. 

" They are so lovely. What do they mean?" she asked while adoring the bunch of delicate flowers. Lin Hui has always been thoughtful, even though he was not in the city for the girl's debut live performance, he still sent the flowers for her. 

He stared at her and said in a low voice, " You're the only one." 

" What?"

" That's what the shopkeeper told me. These flowers are daffodils. They mean unrequited love and that the other person is special to you. However, I picked them because I thought you would like them." He said while changing the topic. 

" Oh. I love them. Thank you." 

" Did you have dinner yet? Should we go and grab a bite?" He asked while showing her his car. 

She looked at the time and pursed her lips before nodding at him and said, " Cool. Let's go. I am starving too." 

-

As soon as she got into his car, she messaged Han Zihao that she would be late as she was going out with her friend. He must have prepared the dinner by now already but she doesn't want to ignore Lin Hui either. 

She met him after so long, it won't be nice of her to reject his offer like this. 

-

" Ummm, it's been so long since I had steak. It's delicious," she said while cutting a piece and putting it in her mouth. 

He brought her to a five-star hotel to treat her. Although it's not as exquisite as Jade Hotel, it's still one of the top hotels in the city. 

Lin hui might be the artist manager only but since he used to work for The Queen from the start, along with them, he earned quite a lot too. He is known as the star manager for a reason. 

If not for Qin Ju's petty tricks, Lin Hui would have managed the other artists too and had them turn into stars. 

-

He stared at her as he watched her eat. She always looks happier whenever she has got her hands on delicious food.

While taking a sip of her red wine, Xu Nuan asked, " So...where were you all this time? You were away for almost two months If I remember correctly." 

" I was so worried about you."

Lin Hui, who was slicing his steak, paused in his actions upon hearing her question. He put down the fork and knife and took a deep break before saying, " Jian…" He looked at her in surprise when he almost called her out with her original name. 

He cleared his throat and looked around before starting again, " Do you remember the part of your will where you gave me your imported cars collection?" 

She nodded. 

After she found out Qin Ju's true intent, she wrote another will and hid it in the apartment in which she used to live. 

The police later found out her will and it was executed as it is.

She not only donated a big part of the wealth to Han Zihao's foundation and transferred some of her wealth to Grandfather Jiang, but she also gave her imported cars collection to Lin Hui. 

Since she used to have concerts and performances abroad the most, she tends to buy new cars and store them in her collection. She has always been fond of cars and loved to add more to her collection. 

Hao Mei always envied her car collection the most. Though she had enough money to buy those cars for herself too, however, for some reason, she always liked whatever she had. 

However, this attitude was not limited to cars only. 

She always uses those cars whenever she goes to that country for concerts or performances. 

" What about it?" she asked while looking at him seriously. Why is he suddenly talking about that?

" After I got the authority over those cars, I put them up for auction so that the money from them can be used for charity. I wanted to donate those cars in your name so that your hard-earned wealth will not go to waste." He said.

He sighed and said, " However, after finding out that you're still alive….I wanted to return that money to you. There is no meaning to donate it now since you're alive."

" But by the time I decided to do that, it was too late. The cars were already auctioned and the money was donated in your name to the orphanages there. If I had acted a little faster, I could have saved that part of wealth for you." he said with a heavy heart. 

The money was her but can't use it. If he hadn't made that decision, she could have used the money to build an entertainment company of hers as she wants. 

Xu Nuan blinked her eyes and couldn't help but chuckle, " That's it? I thought you wanted to talk about something serious." 

" I have given up on that money long ago, there is no meaning to think about what's long gone."

Lin Hui was glad to see her smile like this. But that's not the only thing that he has to say. 

" Xu Nuan…."
