Episode 127

  Nie's lips curled slightly: "General Nie does have some self-awareness, after all. In everything, one must act according to their abilities and not try to meddle in things that don't belong to them."

  This sentence openly says it's about Nie and Ye's cooperation, but secretly, only Nie Shao Tang can understand.

  "Thanks for Mr. Ye's reminder, but some things, it's still unclear who they belong to in the end."

  "Is that so?" Ye Xiuzhen's dark eyes held an unprecedented certainty. "Then we'll wait and see."

  The man turned and left, followed by a group of executives, leaving only Nie Yongnian and Nie Shaotang behind.

  "Dad, you just got off the plane, go back and rest first, I have something to attend to."

  "What's wrong with you?"

  Nie Yong was half displeased and half resentful that the iron had not been made into steel. This son, originally thought to be just a bit of a playboy, at least still had a clear head, so he felt relieved to hand over the foundation he had built up with hard work to him to manage, but did not expect that he would not put his heart into it at all.

  "You'd better give me a clear explanation for why you haven't been to the company all week."

  "Dad, you go back first, I'll slowly explain this matter to you later."

  Nie Shao Tang finally saw off Nie Yong Nian, and his face was no longer stern. Instead, it was replaced by a warm smile, and his tired features also looked more spirited because of his smile.

  He didn't want his little Luoluo to worry about him.

  With a brisk pace, Nie Shao Tang walked towards the accounting department's office area and politely asked Secretary Lin.

  "Excuse me, miss. I'm looking for Yu Luo. Could you tell me where she is?"

  Lin Secretary raised his head and recognized at a glance that the person opposite him was the protagonist of the headlines of various major media outlets in recent days.

  She didn't feel well and left first.

  "Really?"

  Nie Shao Tang was shocked and felt a deep sense of loss, his eyes glanced at the office desk beside him, where his jacket was placed.

  "How long has she been gone?"

  "Just left."

  Nie Shaotang hastily grabbed his coat and chased after him.

  Ye Shi's building, Yu Luo hastily exited the main gate, but unfortunately had an injury on his knee, no matter how he moved, he couldn't go any faster. Just as he walked out, Nie Shao Tang caught up with him from behind.

  "Rain!"

  Nie Shao Tang grasped her arm, turning her body so she faced him, his voice urgent and worried.

  "How did you leave? What's wrong?"

  Rainy eyes flashing, she was escaping, escaping the thick worry in his eyes.

  "I'm fine."

  "Is everything all right?" Nie Shao Tang muttered, "That's good."

  Yu Luo's heart skipped a beat as she thought he would scold her for not keeping her promise to wait for him again, but he didn't. His only concern was whether she had fallen ill or not.

  "Excuse me, I have something else to attend to, I'll leave first."

  Yu Luo casually found an excuse to leave, but her arm was tightly grasped by him. When she turned around, his eyes full of hurt pierced her heart.

  "Xiao Yu Luo, when did we become so estranged?"

  Yu Luo didn't know what to say, nor could she say anything. In just a short week's time, the entire world had been turned upside down. What more could be said about her and him, two small people in this vast universe?

  Nie Shao Tang saw Yu Luo not speaking, and his heart rose with a sense of unease. He had too many words he wanted to ask her, but vaguely felt that something was off, as if he could predict the answers she would give, which were ones he didn't want to hear.

  "Shao Tang, you're thinking too much, I'm a bit tired, so I want to go home and rest."

  Nie Shao Tang didn't distrust her, he was just afraid that once he let go, it would be another endless search all over the world.

  "Little Rain Luo, shall we find a place and have a chat?"

  Facing his pleading tone and fearful eyes that refused to reject him, Yu Luo finally couldn't bring himself to refuse. Some things just needed to be said clearly.

  "Okay."

  She nodded, and Nie Shao Tang immediately became excited, hastily waving his hand to hail a taxi, and helped Yu Luo get in.

  This is a stylish yet elegant restaurant, Nie Shao Tang and Yu Luo sat in the corner, familiar table, familiar potted plants, familiar, two people.

  "Do you still remember this restaurant?"

  Yu Luo nodded, this was the first time, he took her out for dinner, also in this place, she agreed to be his girlfriend.

  Nie Shao Tang's eyes lit up instantly, he ordered a table of dishes, constantly picking food into Yu Luo's bowl, until her bowl was full, then he held his chin with both hands, motionless, watching her eat.

  Yu Luo had no appetite, forcing himself to eat some, put down his chopsticks and plucked up the courage to speak first.

  "Shao Tang——"

  A chill ran across his lips as the man who had stolen a kiss sat back in his own seat with a self-satisfied expression.

  "Xiao Yu Luo, what do you want to say?"

  The ten fingers on both legs were tightly clenched together, Yu Luo gritted her teeth and finally spoke up.

  "Shao Tang, about what happened that day..."

  "That day, you must have been feeling unwell like today, so went home and rested?"

  Yu Lu stared at him in shock, unaware of the flash of panic that had flickered through his eyes.

  "Let me guess, is it that you little lazy pig forgot to charge your phone again, so I couldn't reach you on the phone for the past few days?"

  The man in front of her was constantly weaving reasons for leaving without saying goodbye, although those reasons sounded so childish and unbelievable.

  "Is it like this little rain, huh?"

  Nie Shao Tang gazed at her, a smile on his face and hope in his eyes.

  She wanted to tell him it was true, but all the reasons he had fabricated were actually non-existent.

  "Is it little rain?"

  Nie Shao Tang's voice was tinged with urgency, and Yu Luo's silence made him feel an unprecedented sense of panic, as if he would be doomed forever if she gave a negative answer.

  "Sorry." Luo Yu slowly raised his head, "I was wrong."

  She watched as the smile on the man's face in front of her faded away bit by bit, until only three words were left.

  "Why?"

  She wanted to tell him that she hadn't left without saying goodbye, and she wasn't sick either. Everything that had happened was not what she had wanted or expected.

  "Tell me why?"

  Nie Shao Tang painfully grasped her hand and asked repeatedly.

  There was a moment when Yu Luo really wanted to tell him the truth, but what had happened in the past seven days was something even she couldn't accept.

  "Lolo, do you think he will still want you after you become mine?"

  She opened her mouth, and the words that were almost about to spill out were blocked by a voice like a devil that suddenly surged up in her mind.

  She clutched her hem tightly, would he still want her like this?

  After a long time, Yu Luo heard himself say.

  "Sorry, Nete Shao Tang, I regret it."

  "Xiao Yu Luo, what are you talking about? I don't understand."

  Nie Shao Tang's face turned pale in an instant, he couldn't believe what he had just heard. Had she regretted it? Regretted agreeing to his proposal? Was that why she had slipped away silently?
