The Fake Marriage - C153
“Fine.”
Shen Linlin restrained her emotions and forced a smile.
Mu Xiaochen lowered his head and started flipping through the documents on the table.
“What is it?”
Her tone was indifferent, as if there was nothing else between the two other than their professional relationship.
Shen Linlin’s heart suddenly sank as it slowly fell …
In the past, Mu Xiaochen would never reject her. Even if they were to get married, he had never rejected her.
“My dad told me to come over and let you know that I want to discuss this with you. Can you tell me if the Xiang also has the capital to sponsor you?”
Shen Linlin’s eyes dimmed as she spoke calmly.
When she looked at Mu Xiaochen from the side, her eyes still flashed with boundless love and worship.
In her eyes, Mu Xiaochen was just an existence that seemed to believe in something.
“Sponsored?”
Mu Xiaochen frowned, “Since when did you guys need to sponsor the autumn tour of the Muller’s?”
With a cold laugh, Mu Xiaochen obviously wasn’t interested.
It was just that due to him going abroad previously, the Autumn Festival in the Muller’s was still delayed until now. After Su Qi got better, it would still be held.
After all, the most important thing for a large company was still its employees.
“Because of the cooperation between the Muller’s and their jewellery projects, a great deal of profit was made in the market. If we can also sponsor this Autumn Festival, it would certainly cause a huge commotion, and at that time, it would be of no benefit to our two companies.”
Shen Linlin recovered her serious expression and observed Mu Xiaochen’s attitude.
The beautiful edges became increasingly clear.
Sure enough, after Mu Xiaochen thought about it, his eyes started to move.
“Brother Mu?”
Seeing that Mu Xiaochen did not speak for a long time, Shen Linlin probed.
“I will think about it. I will let Zhou Guang reply to you when I’m done.”
Mu Xiaochen said calmly, his expression sharp.
The corner of Shen Linlin’s mouth curved, they were all in business, no matter what, they would not let go of any cooperation on benefits.
Moreover, he was Mu Xiaochen.
It was the world-shaking Mu Xiaochen …
“Okay, Brother Mu, I will wait for your reply.”
After saying that, a trace of a smile flashed past Shen Linlin’s eyes.
Her tone was elegant, and her palm-sized face was clear and transparent.
Mu Xiaochen acknowledged.
“Brother Mu, then I’ll be leaving first …” Standing in front of Mu Xiaochen, Shen Linlin openly spoke.
Since he had achieved his goal for coming here today, that was enough.
In the ward, Su Qi reclined on the sickbed, with the book in her hand, she studied seriously.
Li Xiaoai had been accompanying her all afternoon, and she finally managed to persuade her to leave just now. After all, she still had to work the next day, so she was already very happy to have accompanied her for the entire afternoon.
The sun gradually set, leaving only a few faint traces on the horizon.
She flipped through the pages of the book. She had already read more than half of the book, and every word of the book was written in earnest.
He looked down and the door opened again.
Su Qi lifted her head to take a glance, and couldn’t help but scrunch her face together.
“Are you feeling better?”
Xiang Yu slowly walked in, his eyes full of melancholy as he looked at Su Qi.
His hands were in his pockets, and he sounded worried.
It was not much different from the first time Su Qi saw him, it was just that this time, the emotions in his eyes seemed to be mixed with different emotions.
The upper part of his face had already healed by a lot, but Su Qi could still clearly see the scars on Xiang Yu’s face.
Putting down the book, Su Qi felt a little awkward, “Much better.”
After barely sitting on the bed, Su Qi made herself completely lean against the headboard, and looked at Xiang Yu.
After a moment of silence, Xiang Yu had already walked in front of Su Qi.
“What about you?”
Raising his head, Su Qi looked at Mu Xiaochen and asked indifferently.
She didn’t know what to say, so she could only say it casually.
“I’m fine.”
Xiang Yu stood in front of Su Qi, looking down at him from above. The scar on his face had yet to completely fade, and his handsome face now seemed somewhat comical.
Looking at Su Qi, he suddenly did not know how to reply.
He was already very satisfied to see that Su Qi had woken up safely.
“That’s good. How did you get the time to come?”
Gaining his embarrassment, Su Qi braced herself and chatted with Xiang Yu. The atmosphere was a little gloomy.
“Mhmm, coincidentally, since there’s nothing important at this time, I came to see you.”
Xiang Yu said while smiling, and was a little forced.
Su Qi nodded, “Take a seat.”
“No need, I won’t be sitting.”
Xiang Yu shook his head and said gently, but in Su Qi’s eyes, he seemed to have something he wanted to say.
The remorse in his eyes was piercing.
“I’m sorry…”
In the empty ward, Xiang Yu suddenly said, with a tone mixed with helplessness and sadness.
Su Qi looked at Xiang Yu, and smiled, “You don’t have to blame yourself for this matter, it’s not your problem, it’s something I’m willing to tell you myself.”
This matter was her own choice in the first place. Even if it was out of the most ordinary of friendship, she would still choose to do so.
Moreover, Xiang Yu had helped her so many times.
“Why are you doing this?”
Xiang Yu frowned, a look of anticipation appearing in his eyes.
He had wanted to ask this question for a long time.
Su Qi’s eyes moved, her complexion looked much better, “Because you have also helped me before.”
A fleeting sense of loss flashed past Xiang Yu’s eyes.
It was only because he had helped her.
“Because of me, you suffered from such a serious injury. I’m really sorry, I’m sorry …” Xiang Yu spoke again, self-reproach filling his tone.
“It’s really nothing, don’t you see that I have recovered already? “I’ve already said that this is my own choice and I owe you one.”
Su Qi laughed and said.
She knew that her words were hurtful, but she did not want to have any contact with Xiang Yu anymore. It was not because of Mu Xiaochen that she gave up on their relationship.
She just felt that it was unnecessary, even as an ordinary friend, Su Qi didn’t feel that she had the qualifications.
Xiang Yu’s heart unconsciously dropped.
Aren’t they all friends? Xiang Yu did not ask.
He had hurt her, after all.
“En, is your injury really alright?” Xiang Yu asked again, but the scars still could not obstruct his handsome features.
Su Qi nodded her head, “Nothing much, the doctor said that we will rest for two more days, as long as the wound is not affected, nothing will happen.”
From start to finish, Su Qi maintained her calm tone and deliberately kept her distance.
“That’s good. If there’s nothing else, I’ll be leaving first.”
Xiang Yu suppressed the emotions in his heart, indifferently turned around and left the ward after saying that sentence.
