Chapter 976: Taking the Wind and Asking the Moon-Taking the Initiate (61)

Perhaps her ambition was too obvious, so Xu Chengfeng did not answer.

However, along the way, Zuo Yue felt inexplicably happy because she was gradually admitting the feelings that she should not have in her heart. It was as if he would not necessarily avoid her if she really exposed all those feelings…

Although only women were sensitive, men might know how to read people’s minds better than women, but they knew how to hide and stay calm.

After returning to Boston, Xu Chengfeng sent Zuo Yue home and left the house. He did not tell Zuo Yue his whereabouts, but Zuo Yue did not ask much.

Just like that, she hugged him and waited for him to come back every day. The happy feeling of him suddenly coming back was also very good. After all, he was her youngest uncle. No matter how much she relied on him and wanted to spend more time with him, he had no reason to really cooperate with her.

This was enough…

Thinking about it this way, the four long years of studying in Boston didn’t seem to be so torturous, because life had expectations and a secret that couldn’t be told to others.

After Zuo Yue called her mother to tell her that she was safe, she went to take a shower and cleaned herself up. Then, she held the computer and played games at home. It was past seven o’clock in the evening, but Xu Chengfeng still did not come back. The feeling of disappointment and anticipation made her sit on the sofa in a daze.

What should I do if I accidentally like someone I shouldn’t like…

There was anticipation, but disappointment as well.

Looking at the dark sky outside, Zuo Yue raised her hand and held her chin.

Anyways, his uncle knew that she had some feelings for him, so he went out to hide as soon as he came back.

Instead of being bored at home alone, she might as well take the initiative to attack. She could not live a nightmare at the age of eighteen. At most, she would just have to be someone else’s nightmare.

The new technology building that the KG Group had acquired.

In the president’s office, rows of computer screens displayed data that kept changing. The completely modern office became even quieter because of the night.

Xu Chengfeng looked at the dossier beside him expressionlessly. He was dealing with some of the remaining problems of the newly acquired companies.

Suddenly, the phone on his desk rang. Xu Chengfeng took it and heard his secretary’s voice.””Mr. Xu, there’s a lady named Chries looking for you. She says she’s the person in charge of the New York branch of KP Corporation.”

Xu Chengfeng’s hand, which was flipping through the dossier, paused slightly and glanced at the time.

Was Chries looking for him at this time?

“President Xu, do you want to meet him?”

“Let her in.”

Not long after the call ended, Chries had already entered the office. When he pushed open the office door and walked in, he took a look at the office environment and immediately smiled.

“Ken, I really admire your patience to come to such a small tech company instead of the office at the HQ of the GN Corporation.”

The woman’s voice was soft and intimate, but Xu Chengfeng did not seem to hear it. He closed the file and looked at her indifferently.”What are you doing here?”

Chries smiled.” I was driving by and saw that the light in your office was still on. I thought I’d drop by. I didn’t expect you to really be here.” Didn’t you say you were going to Los Angeles a few days ago? When did you come back?”

“Today.”

“Today? He came straight to the company without resting after just returning? You can just hand over such a newly acquired technology company to other people in charge. Is there a need for you to work so hard?”

“What’s the matter?” Xu Chengfeng did not continue the topic with her, but suddenly asked.

Chries paused for a moment before smiling.”Do you want to have dinner together? Last time, you agreed to accompany me to the business street, but you abandoned me because of your niece. I finally got to spend some time with you during the signing ceremony, but you left after the signing ceremony. I didn’t even have the chance to have dinner with you…”

“Chries.”Xu Chengfeng looked at her coldly.””I think you should know very well that we are only working together. There is nothing else. When I accompanied you to the business street, it was because my subordinates accidentally spilled coffee on your dress that day. In order to express my apology, I accompanied you for a walk. After that, I met my niece and asked you to leave first. I’m sorry about that, but it doesn’t seem to have anything to do with dinner.”

Chries smiled, not showing any signs of frustration at his obvious rejection and distancing.”Ken, even though we’re just working together, we’ve known each other for many years, haven’t we? When we were in Russia, we even…”

“Nothing happened to me before.”Xu Chengfeng’s gaze was cold.”At the beginning, although I did drink a lot, I was still somewhat sober afterwards. Although you were lying beside me, it didn’t mean that we really did anything.””

Chries ‘expression froze.””Ken, you…”

” I’ve been in a relationship with you for the past six months. You should know the reason behind it. The head of the branch of the KG Corporation shouldn’t be so emotional. Besides, we’ve never had a real relationship before, and we’ve already broken up for a year. Chries, we’re only working together now, nothing else.”

“Ken, are you really that heartless? Since you admit that we dated before, who would believe that you didn’t even kiss me seriously, let alone touch me? I took the initiative the few times, but you avoided me many times. I didn’t even get a decent kiss.”

Chries could no longer remain calm.”Yes, we broke up, but now we’re just ex-boyfriends. You’re not even willing to have dinner with me?”

“I thought you knew what I meant.”Xu Chengfeng suddenly frowned.

“What do I know?” Chries looked at his handsome face under the office light.”” All I know is that I’ve liked you for so many years. From being an intern at the KP Group, I’ve blossomed in front of you step by step, and I’ve reached where I am today. My status and glory were all given to me by you, but you’ve never given me any feelings…”

“Even if we’ve been in contact before, it’s only on the surface. You’ve never given me any feelings. Now I just want to invite you to have dinner with me. Ken, is this too much?”

Xu Chengfeng looked at her calmly, his gaze seemingly sweeping in the direction behind her. She didn’t know what he saw, but he suddenly changed his tone.”What do you want to eat?”

When ChChries heard that, the sadness on his face disappeared. Instead, he smiled and said,””There’s an Italian restaurant on the business street we went to last time. I think the environment is not bad. I’ve checked it online before, and it seems to have a good reputation.”
