Chapter 626: You Don’t Want to See Me?
Mu Yiliang was focused on the computer, occasionally looking pleased, then frowning, and then relaxing again, finally revealing a confident smile.
Just as she expected.
"Done!" She excitedly tapped the Enter key and eagerly turned her head to look at Yan Sijue.
Then she saw the man’s dazed and lost gaze, seemingly filled with endless sorrow, which instantly struck the softest part of one’s heart.
Mu Yiliang’s heart suddenly ached!
"...Mr. Yan?" She spoke to break the silence.
"Hmm?" The man seemed to have just returned to his senses, as if curious, he came over to her side and bent down to look at the computer, "Is it done?"
"Yes." Mu Yiliang cleared her throat lightly, the man suddenly being so close made her a bit uneasy.
She pushed the screen in his direction: "Seeing this, Su Mingyu’s parents probably won’t have time to trouble others."
Yan Sijue raised an eyebrow.
Mr. Su is having an affair, and Su Mu... it’s even more shocking, Su Mingyu isn’t even Mr. Su’s biological son?
With these two’s nature, once they know about each other’s betrayal, they’d probably tear each other apart, wouldn’t they?
He couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
Mu Yiliang suddenly blushed a bit, awkwardly explaining, "Although it’s a bit underhanded, it solves the problem... and people like them don’t deserve any kindness, right?"
The man suddenly reached out and tucked her falling long hair behind her ear, his voice carrying approval: "Not underhanded at all, you did well. That’s exactly how you should handle people like that."
Mu Yiliang instinctively tilted her head slightly, and the man’s hand faltered, then he casually withdrew it and continued, "Leave the rest to me."
Mu Yiliang bit her lip, suddenly speaking, "Mr. Yan..."
Her tone was somewhat hesitant.
The man raised an inquisitive eyebrow.
"Next, my work will be very busy, I might not have time to visit Mr. Liu Xuan," she took a deep breath and said, "If you need financial assistance, I won’t hesitate, but I might not be able to come personally. I guess Mr. Liu Xuan wouldn’t mind either..."
The man’s pupils constricted slightly.
Mu Yiliang’s heart tightened as well.
She inexplicably felt that saying this seemed to have made him very sad and sorrowful... but why, she couldn’t figure it out.
"Is it because of me? You don’t want to see me?" He spoke softly, his voice somewhat hoarse.
Mu Yiliang instinctively shook her head.
The man’s expression was somewhat restrained, after a long time he gave a bitter smile: "Sorry, I lost my composure... Did I scare you?"
Mu Yiliang continued to shake her head: "I think, maybe I remind you of someone or something else?"
She guessed.
That was the only possibility.
The man’s gaze fell on her face, so focused as if she was the only person in his world.
Mu Yiliang suddenly felt her heart beating wildly.
"You’re not wrong to say that." He lowered his eyes, his thick eyelashes casting a faint shadow beneath them, "Let me take you back."
"No... no need!" Mu Yiliang quickly waved her hand to refuse, "I can take a taxi back. Don’t trouble yourself."
Yan Sijue paused again, after a long time, gently nodded: "Alright."
As if that single action and word had exhausted all his strength.
Mu Yiliang suddenly didn’t dare to look at him again, leaving hastily after saying a quick "goodbye."
She didn’t want to explore the sadness and sorrow that seemed to envelop him.
Nor did she want to have any further connection with him!
Even though there was no reason, she just knew, she couldn’t.
Absolutely couldn’t.
