Cen Linrong who was pushed to the ground suddenly seemed to wake up, he looked at Xu Liunian who was on the sofa helplessly, his mouth was trembling.

It was unknown when it happened, but a hole had already been torn open in the clothes on her chest, but the snow-white skin inside was already slightly red. This could have been caused by the tear caused by Cen Linrong just now.

"Fleeting Time, I …"

Cen Linrong panicked a little. He stood up from the ground with one hand holding his body up, and he didn't even know where to put his hands.

Xu Liunian who was half lying on the sofa looked especially heartbreaking. Especially when Cen Linrong realized that he had become like this, he was even more at a loss of what to do.

He didn't dare step forward to help her up, afraid that she would become even more agitated and stand there hesitating.

Xu Liunian panted heavily, the strength she used to scream when she pushed him away was completely used up.

She didn't want to look at Cen Linrong, and she didn't want to talk to him. She had stayed in the Muse for so long, and originally didn't like this kind of forced feeling, not to mention that this person was a senior she had trusted before.

This contrast made her very sad.

"Fleeting Time..."

"Senior, you can go."

She didn't want to say anything. She didn't even raise her head, just clutched her dress to her chest with one hand and held it tightly with the other.

Cen Linrong could naturally see her patience, he was extremely regretful now, he didn't know what had happened to him, but when he saw Lu Jianqing's phone call, he couldn't help but explode.

"Senior, Lu Jianqing sought me out for the West of the City project. He is currently with Liang Peiqing in the United States, we haven't seen each other for many days."

After saying that, Xu Liunian laughed, why did she need to explain it to him?

It was to remind him, and it was also to remind himself that Lu Jianqing would not belong to him.

"West of the City …"

Cen Linrong's body suddenly trembled. She knew about the West of the City?

Xiang Bi also knew that he had lost to Lu Jianqing in this round. Cen Linrong sighed and laughed.

"Fleeting Time, I didn't do it on purpose."

He wanted to go up and explain, but Xu Liunian subconsciously moved backwards. After hesitating for a moment, he retracted her hand in the end.

Fleeting Time, you know that I like you. It's not just one or two days, it's been a long time.

What he said was right, even if she could see through it, but it was the first time she said it in such a straightforward manner. Facing such a confession, Xu Liunian was not embarrassed like an ordinary person, but only helplessly shook her head.

"Senior, you know that I don't like you."

It was also the first time he had refused so bluntly.

No matter how much she tried to avoid him in the past, she had never said such words. But today, she said such heartless words.

In such an awkward situation, there was no room for retaliation.

"Fleeting Time, I'm really sorry. I definitely won't be so impulsive again, but I won't give up on you either."

After restraining his expression for a moment, Cen Linrong licked his lips, "Fleeting Time, I'll be leaving first. I'll come see you in two days."

Xu Liunian wanted to say that he would not look for her again, but just as she struggled to get up, Cen Linrong had already left.

She slammed herself back onto the sofa. What the hell was this!

She wanted to empty her mind, but when she closed her eyes, her mind was filled with the scene just now. However, she realized that the thing she cared about the most in the chaos earlier was actually afraid that Lu Jianqing would misunderstand her and her senior.

Thinking of this, she looked around for her phone. Finally, she found the one with the broken screen on the floor.

However, when she called again, no one answered. She called countless times, waiting for the call to hang up automatically, but there was no response.

Lu Jianqing must be angry.

Throwing his phone to the side, Xu Liunian's heart ached.

Since she could not contact him, the contract naturally could not continue. The Director Li was easier to negotiate, so she did not want to give up on this project.

On the second day, Xu Liunian went to the Lu's, but the company was in complete chaos.

"Secretary Zhou, did something happen?"

Just as Secretary Zhou hung up the phone, she turned around to see her. She asked impatiently, "Why are you here?"

She naturally knew that the Secretary Zhou did not like her, but she was also not too concerned about it, "I still need to confirm the project with the Director Li, I am unable to contact the Director Lu."

As to why she did not contact him, Xu Liunian did not say anything. For this reason, she could not say it.

But she didn't expect that not only did Secretary Zhou not mock her, there was even a trace of worry on her face, as if she was worried about something.

"None of us can contact the Director Lu."

"What?"

Secretary Zhou glanced at the desk and Xu Liunian followed her gaze. There was a piece of news on the computer screen that was filled with all sorts of colors.

"There's an earthquake where the Director Lu is."

Secretary Zhou's voice came out, the pictures on the screen showed all sorts of collapsed buildings and crowded transportation, even though it was just some static ones, she could still feel the buildings shaking and collapsing from the earthquake, so she covered her mouth in panic.

Not only his hand, even his lips were trembling when he spoke, "When did this happen?"

"Last night."

Xu Liunian did not dare to continue listening, but she wanted to confirm whether or not it was really as she thought, "Is there a specific time?"

The Secretary Zhou pointed to the screen in annoyance, "Isn't that what it says? Since I can't contact the Director Lu right now, I have no time to bother with you! "

After saying that, she turned around and left to continue her phone call to the United States.

Xu Liunian turned her gaze to the screen, the time of the earthquake was around 9: 30 last night.

With trembling hands, she took out her phone from her backpack and swiped a few times. The time that Lu Jianqing called her was 10 o'clock.

With her entire body numb, she directly fell down on the chair with her legs weak. She kept thinking about why he called her.

Because she had never told anyone about the contract, Lu Jianqing naturally did not know either. The reason why he called his must have been because of the earthquake.

However, when he called back later, no one answered. It wasn't that he didn't want to, but that he couldn't.

Tears uncontrollably rolled down her cheeks. If she had resisted a little intensely at that time, if she had been able to settle the matter between her and Cen Linrong, if she had been able to pick up the phone, would everything have been different?

But there was no 'if'. She didn't receive the phone call, and didn't hear what Lu Jianqing wanted to tell her.

"Lu Jianqing, I'm sorry..."

She cried silently on the table.
