Mr.CEO Looks Exactly the Same as My Son!-Chapter 598: So Fast?
She pinched her palm, the nails that hadn’t been long dug slightly into her flesh, yet she seemed to not feel the pain, staring blankly at the table.
It wasn’t until the man’s gaze fell on her once more that she snapped out of her trance and responded softly, "Okay".
A few minutes later, Ye Xinluo walked into the office with coffee, placed it on his desk, glanced at him, and spoke indifferently, "President, did you call for me?"
He didn’t speak but instead opened a drawer and took something out.
Ye Xinluo stared blankly at his actions, and in the next moment, her gaze was caught by a glaring red. She then looked at the object in his hand, and it was as if she had been struck by a bolt of lightning, frozen on the spot...
She was stunned for a full two minutes before coming to her senses, curling her lips with a mocking smile, "Wasn’t there still so much time? Is it this soon?"
Her eyes fixed intently on the object in his hand, wishing she could rush up and tear it into pieces.
"Already got the invitation ready so quickly? Are you that eager to get married?"
Yes... in Beichen Rui’s hand was indeed an invitation, the glaring red truly hurt her eyes... The emotions she had barely managed to stabilize over the past few days were once again stirred...
Handing the invitation in front of her, he spoke lightly, "It’s good to have some things prepared early."
She took it with a blank expression, glanced down at it, reached out as if to open it, but in the end, didn’t have the courage to do so...
Her hand slowly lowered, resting beside her leg, looking at this man... her heart filled with mixed emotions.
Why... wasn’t once enough? Why hurt her a second time?
Suddenly, she curved her lips into a smile, bright and beautiful, yet heartbreaking...
Slowly, step by step, she approached his desk, supporting herself with both hands, leaning forward, stopping about ten centimeters away from his face.
She spoke, word by word: "Beichen Rui, can you tell me, what exactly am I to you?"
With a self-deprecating smile, she suppressed the tears in her eyes, her tone indifferent, "Perhaps, I never entered your heart from the start, perhaps it’s always been me wanting things my way, perhaps, I should have never met you..."
The man pressed his lips together, quietly staring into her eyes. There were tears welling up in her eyes, yet she showed a look of stubborn endurance...
They were so close, her scent was something he cherished, so familiar... As long as he reached out, he could pull the helpless her into his arms...
But he couldn’t, he needed to keep her safe, he couldn’t let everything come to nothing...
Thus, the tenderness in his eyes was replaced by coldness, returning to his usual indifferent manner, "I still have work to handle, are you done asking? You may leave."
Hearing his almost ruthless words, Ye Xinluo nearly lost her balance, about to fall to the floor.
Just a little more, just a little more, she would have blacked out...
Clenching her teeth tightly, she withdrew her hand from his desk, showing a distant smile, turned around, and walked out with her head held high...
The distance from the desk to the door wasn’t long, yet she felt that simple distance had drained all her strength...
Her high heels clicked on the floor, each step piercing her heart, every step taken with extreme difficulty...
Finally reaching the door, tears had already stained her cheeks, the invitation in her hand squeezed out of shape...
