Chapter 158 No matter what the result is, at least do it first
"I'm sorry, but if you want to stay away from me, that's all that's good. You shouldn't have gotten so close to me, and I definitely won't mess with your bright future."
Gu Yuan put away his phone and connected the power cord.
He threw himself onto the bed.
Looking at the ceiling, he still didn't want these trivial things of his to disturb Jiang Ning, but he couldn't suppress his inner thoughts, he wanted to get close to Jiang Ning.
So he dug up Jiang Ning's agent, with whom he had had contact before.
he asks:
"How's Jiang Ning's schedule lately? Is it full?"
"Don't mention it anymore. She was quite busy at first, but then she seemed to have a grudge against someone, so it became less frequent. How is it related to you?"
The other party sent him a voice message, and he was speechless for a moment, and had no idea how to respond to his agent's question.
He has nothing now and can't help her. Looking for her again will only cause her more trouble.
I don’t know if it’s because they have telepathic connection, but it seems that Jiang Ning, who is thousands of miles away, can also feel that something is wrong with both of them.
She returned home carefully, and even parked her car far away from home to avoid being discovered by Li Yiming.
However, Jiang Ning's little trick was too obvious and was discovered by his brother as soon as he entered the door.
"What are you doing?"
Li Yiming's face suddenly appeared on the spiral staircase.
With a look of contempt, he looked at Jiang Ning who had sneaked back with contempt.
She looked so small lying on the ground that Li Yiming could easily crush her to death with one hand.
Jiang Ning felt like he had done something wrong and was caught.
She even wanted to find some other topics, so she pretended to be calm and said:
"Ah? It's so late and you're still awake? Brother, listen to me, once you get older, it's better to get more sleep, otherwise you won't have the energy to deal with tomorrow's affairs."
Li Yiming didn't buy it either. Basically, whenever it came to issues related to Jiang Ning, he would become quite serious.
Questioning Jiang Ning:
"You came back so late, shouldn't you be the one explaining it to me? Why are you asking me instead?"
Jiang Ning's voice trembled, and he was still a little afraid of Li Yiming, especially in this situation.
"That's not what I meant..."
Li Yiming came down the spiral staircase, wearing a silk pajamas that looked very valuable, with his collarbone and abdominal muscles faintly visible under the clothes.
Then he stood in front of Jiang Ning and looked straight into her eyes.
Jiang Ning was like a little mouse that was caught stealing food. He was too timid to look directly into Li Yiming's eyes.
Li Yiming spoke first:
"Do you think I will believe it? So many things have happened in so many days. You said you wanted to work at first, and then I helped you find a job, but now you have inexplicably created a bunch of messes for me. Don't you think you should give me a reasonable explanation?"
Although Jiang Ning avoided the question, she had her own opinion in her heart, so she explained to Li Yiming:
"You really think too much. I didn't expect so many messes to happen at the beginning. I didn't look for trouble. I was forced into various disputes. Do you think I am willing?"
But Li Yiming still looked at her with that look, so Jiang Ning added:
"I have said this much, and the rest is up to you to believe or not. And whether you believe it or not, this is my idea. If everything goes smoothly, do you think I would be willing to face it alone? I am not forced."
Then he ran up the stairs as if escaping.
Only after returning to his room and looking at the familiar and warm scene before him did Jiang Ning feel a little relieved.
The puppy obediently ran to her feet, snuggled into her palm, and soothed Jiang Ning's heart with its furry little head.
No matter how to deal with what happens next, Jiang Ning decided to have a good sleep first and deal with it later.
……
A few days later, Gu Yuan accidentally learned that Jiang Ning would attend an industry cocktail party.
He decided to seize this opportunity and communicate with Jiang Ning face to face.
No matter what the result is, at least you should try your best.
So that night, Gu Yuan appeared at the cocktail party in a neat suit, looking handsome.
But his appearance did not cause much splash, and he was no longer the president of the Gu Group.
However, he has been ignored during this period of time and has long been accustomed to these people's fawning.
He looked everywhere for Jiang Ning and finally found her on the balcony.
Jiang Ning stood there alone, her beautiful face looked even more charming in the moonlight.
Gu Yuan walked forward and called softly: "Jiang Ning..."
Jiang Ning also looked at him, but without any other expression. He just looked at him blankly.
Jiang Ning turned his head away, as if he didn't see him.
Gu Yuan's heart tightened. He took a step forward and grabbed Jiang Ning's arm. "Jiang Ning, can we talk?"
But Jiang Ning struggled to get rid of his hand, and the passion in his tone had long since disappeared, "We have nothing to talk about."
"Why?" Gu Yuan asked in confusion.
"Don't you understand yet?" Jiang Ning's eyes flashed with pain, "There's no going back between us."
After saying that, she turned and left the balcony, leaving Gu Yuan standing there blankly.
He was a little stunned. He didn't expect this day to come so soon.
Indeed, Gu Yuan hoped that Jiang Ning would get better and better, even if he was thousands of miles away from him, he would not care. But now it seems that when this day really comes, whether he can bear it is another matter.
However, a moment later, Gu Yuan received a message on his mobile phone.
The message was from Jiang Ning, and it only had a few short words on it: "I'll be waiting for you downstairs."
But even though there were only a few short words, a glimmer of hope immediately ignited in Gu Yuan's heart.
Ignoring the strange looks from everyone present, he quickly went downstairs and saw Jiang Ning's car parked on the side of the road.
He opened the car door and got in, and Jiang Ning asked the driver to start the car.
Along the way, both of them were silent.
Finally, Jiang Ning ordered the car to stop at the beach.
She got out of the car, walked to the railing and looked at the surging waves.
Gu Yuan walked up to her and whispered, "Jiang Ning, I'm really sorry for you. From the time you've been with me until now, you haven't had a good life for a few days, but I really don't want to lose you."
Jiang Ning turned his head, with mixed emotions in his eyes.
"Gu Yuan, we can't go back. Let the past be the past, and we should all look forward."
The sea breeze blew across their cheeks, bringing a slight coolness.
Gu Yuan looked at Jiang Ning, his heart filled with helplessness and reluctance.
He knew that this might be their end.
But he decided to give it one last try. "Jiang Ning, give me a chance, okay? Just let me try once. No matter what the result is, I'll accept it."
Jiang Ning was slightly stunned, then smiled and said, "Okay."
