Chapter Ninety-Six: Weeping

"Is it really irreparable?"

β€œγ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚ ”

"Can't you really think about it again?"

β€œγ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚ ”

"Really, are you going to give up like that?"

"I'm sorry。。。。。。 ”

Looking at the figure that slowly gradually moved away from sight until it disappeared, the strength of Xiao Yuan's whole body standing in place seemed to be evacuated in an instant, and he staggered back two steps, and Xiao Yuan was supported.

Turning around, Hyoyeon saw a blurred face. Raising his hand to wipe the tears that flowed from his eyes at some point, Taeyeon's familiar face finally became clear, "Taeyeon!" Hyoyeon choked up Taeyeon's name, "Really, is it irretrievable?"

Yuri, who was holding Xiaoyuan, hugged Xiaoyuan tightly, sobbing quietly, and several other people were also holding or silently wiping their tears, no matter whether they thought of the current situation in advance, everyone's sadness is the same now.

To the accompaniment of muffled sobs, Taeyeon, who was standing in front of Hyoyeon, looked silently at the end of the hallway, where she had just walked past the person she had thought would always be by her side. Heart, suddenly, a hole was broken, a hole that I didn't know what to fill with it. No matter how much effort she put in, it was still in vain, maybe she was really not suitable to be the captain, otherwise how could she just be powerless to watch that figure disappear in front of her eyes?

Stretching his waist, tidying up the folder at hand and putting it aside, Li Ke leaned back in his chair and turned around relaxedly, "Huh?" Li Ke stood up and walked to the bright and transparent floor-to-ceiling windows, the colorful umbrellas on the street and the people walking with their hands blocking their heads all showed that today was not a good day.

"It's raining!" Li Ke stretched out his index finger and poked the raindrops on the side of the glass that he couldn't touch, and fell into a long silence.

"Click!" a rhythmic knock on the door broke the silence of the office. Rubbing his index finger with his thumb, Li Ke withdrew his fingertip a little cold hand, and looked at the door calmly, "Come in!"

"President Nim!" Xu Zhuyu put the folder in his hand on the boss's desk, and looked at Li Ke who was standing by the window and looked a little dull, "This is the publicity plan sent by the marketing department about the opening of the Samseong-dong store." Also, there is a charity auction led by the Seoul Metropolitan Government at 7 o'clock tonight, and after the auction, you will have a dinner with Director Park of the Deokwon Group, do you want to go home first or wait a while and go straight to the auction site?"

"I... Wait a minute!" Li Ke picked up the mobile phone on the table, "Ah, Bu Saiyo?"

"Li Ke... Xiao Yuan's deep nasal voice came from the other end of the phone.

Li Ke's heart instantly raised, "What's wrong with you?"

"I! Ahem!" Hyo-yeon sniffed, "Do you have time now?" I want to see you!"

"Of course there's time!" Li Ke frowned and clenched the mobile phone in his hand, "Where are you now?"

"I don't know either!" Xiao Yuan looked blankly at the surrounding scene that was very unfamiliar to her, "I seem to be lost!"

"Then you find a coffee shop or something to sit down and rest for a while, and then send me a location to share, and I'll go to you!"

"Oh!" Xiao Yuan, whose brain was blank, obediently obeyed the command from the other end of the phone, lowered the hat on his head, found a coffee house closest to her and walked in, ordered a cup of American coffee, and shared the position, Xiao Yuan sat quietly in front of the window, waiting for Li Ke's arrival.

"President Nim!" Xu Zhuyu, who had been ear-piercing since hearing the word Xiaoyuan, bit her lip after seeing Li Ke pick up the car keys on the table, and finally couldn't help but speak, "You... ”

"I won't go to the charity auction! Minister Li will bring someone from the marketing department to go!" Li Ke interrupted Xu Zhuyu's words, "Also, call Director Park and tell her that I am suddenly in a bit of a hurry today, and I won't eat dinner with her, and if there is a question about the transfer of the real estate of Sanmiao Street, I will find another time to talk to her! Remember to send the documents on the table to various departments in a while, and I will hear everyone's views on this plan at the regular meeting next Monday!"

"Inside!" Xu Zhuyu carefully wrote down Li Ke's instructions, held the folder on the table in his arms, and looked at Li Ke's extremely serious face at this time, Xu Zhuyu gave up the curiosity in his heart, "I'll go out first!"

After putting on his coat, Li Ke strode to the door, but suddenly turned back when the door was halfway open, opened the drawer, took out something and put it in his trouser pocket, and Li Ke hurriedly walked into the special elevator.

"Bang!" Li Ke, who closed the car door, walked quickly into the ordinary-looking coffee house in front of him. Walking in the door and taking a quick glance, Li Ke couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw the figure by the window staring out the window in a daze.

Waving his hand to signal that the waiter did not need to come, Li Ke pulled the chair opposite Xiaoyuan. The sound of the chair rubbing against the ground woke up Xiao Yuan, who was still turning his head to look out the window, and when he turned his head, Xiao Yuan showed a reassuring smile, "You're here!"

When he saw the dazzling tears in the corners of Xiao Yuan's eyes who turned his head, Li Ke's heart thumped heavily. Taking a deep breath, Li Ke suppressed the throbbing in his heart and asked cautiously, "Is something wrong?"

Hearing Li Ke ask, the eyes that had finally dried up showed signs of being moistened, lowered his head and quickly wiped the corners of his eyes, Xiao Yuan raised his head and looked at Li Ke who was looking at her pitifully, "I don't want to say here, can we change places?"

Seeing Xiaoyuan sitting in the car, Li Ke closed the door and walked to the cab on the other side. Skillfully starting the car, Li Ke looked worriedly at Xiao Yuan, who was unusually silent on his side, what happened to make Xiao Yuan, who had always been cheerful and had never shown a trace of weakness in front of him, so depressed and sad? His gaze swept over the corner of Xiao Yuan's eyes, and the flame in Li Ke's heart began to burn slowly.

Drove the car into the parking garage and parked it, Li Ke opened the co-pilot's door, "It's here!"

"Huh?" Hyo-yeon, who was blank in the car and didn't know what he was thinking, looked up blankly, "What's wrong?"

"I said!" Li Ke bent down and looked at Xiaoyuan in the car very gently, "It's already here, you can get out of the car!"

"Oh!" Xiao Yuan nodded blankly, got up and wanted to leave, but was pulled back by the seat belt.

Sighing helplessly, Li Ke bent down into the car and unbuckled his seat belt for Xiaoyuan. Uneasily, he took Xiaoyuan's arm and led her up to the living room above the garage, Li Ke poured a large cup of hot water for Xiaoyuan, and found a blanket to drape it on Xiaoyuan who was sitting on the sofa, and then sat next to Xiaoyuan and prepared to listen to the reason why Xiaoyuan was so depressed today. "Tell me, what's going on?"

Completely hidden, a private space that will never be seen by anyone, very trusting, and has become a very important person in his life, these two conditions made Xiao Yuan completely let go of all his defenses, and cried out loud.

Li Ke, who was startled by Xiao Yuan's sudden crying, was at a loss to pick up the paper on the coffee table and wiped Xiao Yuan's surging tears, but soon Li Ke found that this act was completely useless, Xiao Yuan's tears were so many that it seemed that there was no end to them, and there were signs of crying more and more. Frowning in distress, Li Ke tried to concentrate on it, thinking back to the knowledge he had gained from the book during this time, "When your girlfriend or someone she likes is sad and crying, you don't need to say too much, you don't need to do too much, a hug is enough for her to slowly stop crying and turn back into the figure you are familiar with." ”

"This is a bestseller, the above proposal should be useful, right?" With doubts about book knowledge, Li Ke tentatively stretched out his hand and encircled Xiao Yuan, who was still breaking down and crying, into his arms.

"Woo woo ... Li Ke soon felt the wetness gradually spreading in his chest.

"Why is it useless? Can even bestsellers deceive people?" Li Ke frowned, but he couldn't think of a better way than hugging, after thinking for a long time, Li Ke put his left hand on the back of Xiao Yuan's head with some hesitation, and his right hand began to gently stroke Xiao Yuan's back, "Although I don't know what happened, no matter what happened, it will pass! If you want to cry, cry happily! I will always be with you!"
