In fact, Cheng Yajing still had some doubts in his heart, because To Manager had specially said that Ling Tianqi did not want him to tell her that there must be some trick to it, and that the most likely scenario would be Pei Chenjun making a move against the Ling Family.

But Ling Tianqi replied so straightforwardly, she did not mention the Pei household. If she said that, was she looking down on the Ling household? Do you think the Ling family is still as strong as the Pei family? She did not speak again, but fell into deep thought.

For the whole day, she had been rather absent-minded.

Originally, he could put all his heart into work and not think about Pei Chenjun. But now, his mind was filled with the images of Pei Chenjun and Ai Jing, which he could not erase no matter how hard he tried.

She still hadn't forgotten him, right?

It was as though a hole had been torn open in her heart. The chaotic memories turned into a sword and stabbed into her heart. She felt as though she was about to suffocate …

In her stupor, she was about to go crazy.

It was time to get off work again. Ling Tianqi would send Cheng Yajing back to his apartment everyday for the next few days. Although he didn't express his feelings, Cheng Yajing clearly understood what he was thinking in his heart.

It was just that her current relationship with Pei Chenjun was unclear, and she really had no interest in him. In Cheng Yajing's opinion, Ling Tianqi was worthy of a better woman to accompany him for his entire life.

"Tianqi, you don't have to send me to work. I can take the bus." Cheng Yajing had finally mustered enough courage to reject Ling Tianqi, she didn't want him to miss out on an even better woman because of her.

With regards to Cheng Yajing's words, Ling Tianqi's brows were furrowed with worry, "I was just sending you home, do you mind?"

Cheng Yajing immediately shook her head, "No, I just feel that you have your own life too. You don't need to send me off from work everyday, you don't know, although they did not say it on the surface, but in reality, they all thought that we …"

Before she could finish her words, she was stopped by Ling Tianqi, "Who is the one who is gossiping?" There was a sharp tone in his voice.

Cheng Yajing had no choice but to lower her eyes. She was only casually finding a reason, but it was actually because she didn't want to get too close to Ling Tianqi.

"No, Tianxiong, you treat me too well. I can't accept it." In the end, Cheng Yajing could only say this reason.

This reason did not stir the slightest bit in Ling Tianqi's heart. He pulled Cheng Yajing's arm, "What are you saying? We're friends, we're just sending you off from work. Why do you need to be so formal with me?"

"But …" Cheng Yajing still wanted to say something.

Ling Tianqi had already pulled her to the underground parking lot, "No need, Yating, I won't let you go beyond the boundaries of a friend. Don't worry."

Since Ling Tianqi had already said it, Cheng Yajing did not have anything else to say. Looking at Ling Tianqi's resolute face and how gentle she was towards him, she suddenly thought of how she could make this man fall in love with her so wholeheartedly.

Sitting on the carriage, Cheng Yajing was feeling uneasy all the way.

After getting out of the car, Cheng Yajing prepared to return to her apartment, but suddenly turned and ran back to Ling Tianqi: "Wait, I have something to say to you."

Ling Tianqi's face too had a trace of gentleness and that deep emotion that couldn't be removed from his eyes. But Cheng Yajing didn't have that feeling hidden away in her heart.

She was panting from the running, Ling Tianqi was confused, "What do you mean?"

After stabilizing his emotions, Cheng Yajing took a deep breath, "Tianqi, I know you still like me, right?"

He never thought that Cheng Yajing would be able to guess his thoughts so thoroughly. For a moment, Ling Tianqi didn't know how to reply.

He was not sure what Cheng Yajing wanted to say, and did not dare to actually answer Cheng Yajing.

His silence, in Cheng Yajing's eyes, was equivalent to tacitly agreeing to her question. She slowly continued to speak, "You deserve better, there won't be any more possibilities between us, let alone me being unworthy of you. You're so outstanding, so there should be a lot of people who like you."

Ling Tianqi had even thought that Cheng Yajing was moved by his kindness towards her, but she actually rejected him immediately.

However, even if she rejected him, his feelings for her didn't change. He smiled and said, "Yating, I only have the feelings of a friend towards you. It's not what you think. You misunderstood me."

Only then did Cheng Yajing feel at ease, but she did not know if what Ling Tianqi said was true or not, and wanted her to be at ease. Or was this really the truth? She did not know.

The atmosphere became silent. The light from the street projected the shadows of two people, but they did not move. Until a gust of wind blew over, Cheng Yajing felt a little cool and only then did she come back to her senses. "Then go back early, and be careful on the way."

There was an obvious alienation in his tone, Ling Tianqi tried his best to look natural, but his heart was actually in pain. Because of what Cheng Yajing had said, if he wanted to love, he could not bravely love it because of his current mental state.

Saddened by this loss, little by little, Ling Tianqi floated around him. He smiled bitterly, "Mn, I will be careful. You rest early too."

When he turned around to take a look, the sadness that inadvertently appeared on Ling Tianqi's face was seen by Cheng Yajing with his sharp eyes.

She silently looked at his back, and softly said that she was sorry. It was impossible for them to be together, because her entire heart had already been handed over to Pei Chenjun.

He slowly walked to the apartment and closed the door. He also closed the door to his heart.

Just at this time, Ling Tianqi was about to get on his car, but he saw the Rolls Royce that was parked at the next intersection. He was very clear that it was Pei Chenjun's car, and he was actually here, so he must have heard the conversation between him and Cheng Yajing just now, right?

Just as Ling Tianqi was about to drive away, at the corner of the road, Pei Chenjun walked over, "Ling Tianqi, long time no see."

Pei Chenjun had an evil smile on his face as the street lamp lengthened his figure, causing Ling Tianqi to be shocked. He seemed to not be very familiar with Pei Chenjun.

Thinking about the oppression the Pei family had made on the Ling family during this period of time, Ling Tianqi did not give Pei Chenjun a nice face, "President Pei, I wonder if you are staying here all night just to stop me?"

"I never speak nonsense. It's very simple. If I make Ya Jing resign from you, perhaps I can spare the Ling family." Pei Chenjun leaned on the wall and said those words as if it was as easy as pie.

Ling Tianqi was indeed afraid of Pei Chenjun's power, but for his beloved woman, how could he be willing to let go?

He walked over with anger burning in his eyes, "I won't let Yating resign. You just want to separate me and Yating, don't you? "Let me tell you, Ya Jing is very happy with me now. You won't have the chance to be with her again."

Unexpectedly, after Pei Chenjun heard his words, he started laughing loudly, "Are you joking? I heard the conversation between you and Yating just now. She doesn't like you at all.

Ling Tianqi was instantly a little taken aback, he didn't even notice that someone was nearby.
