Chapter Forty-Six: Refusal, Unworthy of Him

The sunlight shone obliquely on the glass curtain wall of the Meng Building, shining with a dazzling light.

Meng Yanchen walked through the hall of the building, his hands in his pockets. His face was not as cold as usual, and the corners of his mouth seemed to be slightly curled. Her suffering made his heart bitter and distressed, but he knew that she had a kind and filial heart. This kind of cognition made his heart, which was originally full of doubts and plans, melt little by little.

Walk through the hall and into the promenade.

There are some female employees who have their backs to Meng Yanchen and take advantage of their free time at work to chat here. They didn't realize that the president was behind them, and they were still chatting with great interest.

If he were replaced by the previous Meng Yanchen, he would definitely take out his mobile phone from his pocket without saying a word, call the head of the personnel department, and ask him to solve the problem and never drag his feet.

However, he overheard their conversation, intentionally or unintentionally.

"Hey! Meng Yanxi is pursuing Chu Qiao from the public relations department! I also gave her ninety-nine roses this morning!"

"Hey, isn't that the image lady at the Jinxuan Real Estate press conference?"

"That's her! I envy her!"

"Look at her appearance, she is pure and lovely, maybe she has a high means!"

“……”

Meng Yanxi pursued Chu Qiao?!Meng Yanchen frowned, the light of his phoenix eyes couldn't help but deepen, and the little curvature at the corner of his mouth was also raised by him, and his face was pale. I couldn't help but think of Meng Yanxi saying that he liked Chu Qiao......

His heart suddenly became irritable, and his fingers clenched. He didn't deal with the group of gossipy female staff, but instead walked into his special elevator with a gloomy face.

Those female employees saw Meng Yanchen walk into the elevator and suddenly came to their senses. They were seen chatting at work and were seen by the president! Looking at it again, the president exuded a violent and gloomy momentum, which made them immediately run away, and they were still worried about their unpredictable and tragic future.

Meng Yanchen approached the elevator, suppressed the irritability in his heart, and pressed the button on the eighteenth floor. The elevator rose little by little, and the original good mood disappeared in an instant. Chu Qiao is his lover...... is already his person, how can she be worthy of Yan Xi and get Yan Xi's love?

The expression on his face was cloudy, and his eyes were as if they had been dipped in ink, making it impossible to grasp his inner thoughts.

It's almost time for a lunch break.

Chu Qiao's phone rang. As soon as Chu Qiao picked up his mobile phone, he found that the eyes of his colleagues in the office were all focused on Chu Qiao. She was stunned, then picked up her mobile phone, walked out of the office area, and pressed the call button.

"Hey, hello......"

"Chu Qiao, it's me, Yan Xi!" No matter how many times he listened to his voice, it was always so magnetic and so good.

Chu Qiao sighed lightly: "I know ......"

"At noon, let's go to dinner together! When the lunch break comes, I'll go to the sixth floor to find you!" He works on the twelfth floor, and it is very convenient to come to the sixth floor to find her.

"No......" Chu Qiao's mouth smiled: "I mean, you don't come to the sixth floor to look for me." Let's meet the whole family next to Meng's! I just want to talk to you too......"

"Okay, see you then!"

"Well, okay!"

Hanging up, she took a deep breath. She regarded him as a friend, and he liked him, although she understood it a little, but if she refused, she never said it. Now, it should be time.

Chu Qiao leaned against the glass window, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was dyed with bitterness. She has never expected herself to be so different, she has always hoped that she can be ordinary and live a warm life with her family and lovers. She just wanted to spend the rest of the deal in peace, and when it was due, leave silently. If she has any of her biggest wishes now, it is that she hopes that someone can donate a suitable kidney to her father......

Lunch break.

In front of the family mart convenience store that he had made an appointment, Chu Qiao really saw Meng Yanxi standing there. He wore a white sweater today, smiled softly, and waved at him. Pure white, she looks good when she is dressed by Meng Yanxi, and the smile on the corner of her mouth is very warm, which is the one that Meng Yanchen is completely different, which makes people feel better naturally.

Looking at Yan Xi like this, she couldn't help but have an idea. If, it was Meng Yanxi who chose to buy her in the first place, would the process be different? The ending would also be different? Suddenly, Chu Qiao chuckled lightly, there has never been an if-if in this world. If, with only regret, but no matter what you regret, things will not go backwards, and what happened will not not have happened......

"Chu Qiao, what's so funny?" Meng Yanxi walked up to her side and asked her.

"Nothing. ”

"Let's go, let's have lunch together!"

"Hmm!"

Chu Qiao followed Meng Yanxi to a tea restaurant.

"The milk tea here is delicious!It's my favorite drink!" Meng Yanxi took the menu, pointed to the photos on the menu, and his eyes fell on Chu Qiao's body gently. Chu Qiao likes to laugh, but she doesn't really laugh a lot. But once that smile comes from the heart, he will also feel warm in his heart. So, he was willing to wait for her smile and watch her become happy.

"Really, then I'm going to drink and see!" Chu Qiao nodded: "If it's delicious, then I'll also invite my good friend to come over and drink it!"

A few Cantonese dim sum and Cantonese dishes.

It was served quickly.

The milk tea is that kind of warm, Chu Qiao's fingers touched the glass, and his fingers couldn't help but tremble slightly. His fingers were pinching the straw, just stirring the milk tea. Her eyelashes fluttered slightly, and a hint of hesitation flashed in her apricot eyes.

"Chu Qiao, my flower, do you like it?" Meng Yanxi said.

Chu Qiao raised his head and met his affectionate gaze, his eyes were very clear, sincere, love, and tenderness could be clearly read from his eyes. Chu Qiao's heart was sour.

Meng Yanxi stared at Chu Qiao's little face and said seriously: "Chu Qiao, do you remember that rainy night? It was you who appeared in front of my car and was almost hit by my car. And I thought, how can you be a girl on the street so late in the day, and it's raining so hard? In the car, you asked me if I would like to buy you? At the time, I thought you were no different from other women I knew, but you just liked my money?"

"But I remember the way you looked at me, there was pleading, despair, helplessness, struggle...... Even in the United States, I still remember. I regret why I didn't ask you in the first place...... So, I came back from the United States in the hope of being able to find you. In the days I spent with you, I found that you are stubborn, kind, and stubborn, I like you, can you give me a chance. Give me a chance to take care of you, I promise, I will take good care of you and wait for your smile......" Meng Yanxi spoke fluently, but a thin layer of sweat was already pouring out of his palms. This is the first time he has confessed to the girl he likes, and he is nervous but looking forward to Chu Qiao's answer.

Chu Qiao let go of the straw in his hand, and the straw still lazily turned a few times in the glass. Such a gentle, romantic confession is something that women will be tempted by, and Chu Qiao will be no exception.

However, she is very sober, and she is not in it until now, nor is she in idol dramas. When she told him about the deal between her and Meng Yanchen, he would gently caress her cheek and tell her that it had nothing to do with it, that he didn't mind, and even took her out of this sad place.

Since childhood, Chu Qiao has been very self-aware. And now, she knows that she is not worthy of Meng Yanxi. Her body was touched by Meng Yanchen and branded with his mark. Whether she wants to admit it or not, but she has the shadow of Meng Yanchen in her heart.

If you promise Yanxi, it's not fair to him!

"I'm sorry......" Chu Qiao heard his slightly trembling voice: "Yanxi, we are still good friends, okay?"

"Good friend?" Meng Yanxi frowned and asked, his clenched hand couldn't help but let go, and asked, "Why are you a good friend? Why don't you give me a chance to take good care of you?"

Chu Qiao shook his head: "No, Yanxi, I don't hate you. I just don't think I'm worthy of you!" she didn't deserve him, what Meng Yanchen said was indeed the truth. He is the younger brother of the President, a well-known barrister in the legal profession, he is gentle and elegant, and he is the idol of all the female employees in the firm. And she is very ordinary, ordinary can be seen everywhere, how can she stand by his side?

"Chu Qiao, deserve it, or not? It's not up to you to say, and it's not for anyone else to say!It's up to me to say it! I like you, you deserve my liking!" Meng Yanxi's smile on the corner of his mouth was not there, and he only felt that his heart was full of deep loss.

"No...... No matter what, I can't like you!I hope we're still good friends......" The corners of Chu Qiao's mouth tried to pull up a smile, only she knew how bitter this smile was.

Meng Yanxi's eyes dimmed suddenly, but soon, the light rekindled: "Okay!" It's okay to be a good friend, at least, he can always be by her side. As long as he doesn't give up, he believes that one day, she will like him.

Speaking of this, Chu Qiao felt a lot more relaxed in his heart. She took a big sip of milk tea and felt that the milk tea was fragrant and slippery, which tasted very similar to the milk tea made by Zheng Jiajia herself. She tried to break the silence between her and Meng Yanxi, and then said, "It's really delicious! It's about the same level as my colleague's milk tea!"

"Almost?" the corners of Meng Yanxi's mouth returned to their usual Erya, and he also took a sip of the milk tea in the cup: "Then I really have to see it next time...... This is my favorite place to drink milk tea before going abroad......"

Chu Qiao smiled and nodded: "Well, okay, if you have the chance, I will also let her come over and try it!"

While eating, Meng Yanxi's eyes kept falling on Chu Qiao's body and never looked away. Whether it was the soup stains on the corners of her mouth, or the scalded tongue of the shrimp balls poured into the soup, or the appearance of drinking milk tea with satisfaction, he looked at it with a smile......
