Chapter 157 The last confession?
Ten thirty in the morning Beijing time.
Lu Xingchen was at work when the phone on the table vibrated. It was a video call from Li Zhen. Her heart skipped a beat. She looked back at her colleagues and found that everyone was busy. She picked up the phone, put on headphones, and walked out.
I walked to a deserted place and connected the video. Due to network problems, it took two seconds for Li Zhen's face to appear on the screen. Although the angle of the shot was not very good as he was lying down, he was naturally handsome and looked good from any angle.
It must have taken him a while to see her, so he stared at the video for a while before he smiled and called out, "Baby..."
Lu Xingchen's phone almost slipped out of his hand and fell.
She used to video chat with him all the time, and even after so many years of such a familiar operation, she still felt nervous when trying it again. What’s more, Li Zhen called her “baby” for the first time out of the blue, and she was wearing headphones, so the sound penetrated her eardrums and went straight to her heart.
His face was a little hot, and Lu Xingchen said with a straight face: "Is it so open after just a few days of going abroad?"
Li Zhen smiled, and he looked warm in the video, "I can be more open in China, but you were afraid you couldn't handle it and didn't agree."
There's always room for him to tease, right? Lu Xingchen frowned, "I'm at work, Mr. Li."
"I know you're at work, but don't I have time to look for you at this time?"
"Then if you have something to say, please say it quickly."
After she said that, Li Zhen was silent for a few seconds and said stubbornly, "I want to talk slowly. What's the matter? Is my position in Zhencheng so low that I can't even take up half an hour of work time?"
"..." Lu Xingchen couldn't help but smile at this tone, and said with some reluctance, "I was reckless, Mr. Li, please take your time to speak."
Li Zhen folded his arms and put them under his head, saying half-sourly, "I've been out for so many days, and you don't miss me."
"Don't I contact you often?"
"But I want you to contact me first. Even if we don't have a video call, you can just give me a call."
Lu Xingchen pursed his lips and said, "...International long-distance calls are too expensive."
Li Zhen was speechless for a while, and secretly thought of the photo, "What have you been doing recently?"
"What else can I do besides work?"
"Do not go out to play?"
Lu Xingchen suddenly sensed something else in his words and raised his eyebrows, "Is Boss Li checking up on me remotely?"
Li Zhen's heart skipped a beat, "I just feel like you don't miss me."
"You don't lack people who want you, do you?" After saying this, she thought of Wen Nuan's next sentence and continued, "You won't get someone pregnant and then come to me with your smooth talk, right?"
Li Zhen laughed angrily, "I tried every possible way to make you my pregnant wife, but you just wouldn't let me sow the seeds..."
"Li Zhen!" After calling out this, Lu Xingchen remembered that he was in the company and hurriedly looked around to see if there was anyone there.
Li Zhen looked at the pretty, fair face in the camera and showed a panic expression. He laughed softly, "What are you afraid of? You can call me Li Zhen by my name. Who dares to say anything?"
Lu Xingchen glared at him, and Li Zhen smiled and changed his words, "If you are really afraid of being discovered, I would agree to you calling me husband."
"Li..." Lu Xingchen stopped talking in time, and after a moment he warned in a low voice, "I said I will let bygones be bygones, but if you dare to hide something from me now, you better think about it yourself. You are just on probation here."
After hearing this, Li Zhen couldn't lie still anymore and sat up from the bed, "Who told you what?"
Lu Xingchen was about to speak, but at this moment, through the floor-to-ceiling window, she saw a man in a floral shirt looking up at the building in the square of Zhencheng Building.
The moment Lu Xingchen recognized the man, he was so scared that he quickly hung up Li Zhen's phone.
But the next moment, she immediately ran to the elevator, but the four elevators were very far away, so she rushed directly into the emergency exit and ran downstairs.
In the meantime, Li Zhen called again but she hung up. She ran to the lobby in one breath, used the employee card hanging around her neck to swipe open the gate and continued to rush out quickly.
There were still people coming and going in the square, but the tall man in the flowered shirt was gone. Lu Xingchen searched all around the square and looked at every intersection, but still couldn't find him.
The fear of being haunted by a ghost but the ghost disappearing when she was about to face it enveloped her. She looked at the busy intersection, raised her hand and put it down several times, and the last time she reached up from her forehead and grabbed her hair tightly.
What can she do with him?
This question mark collided with her heart and brain for a while. She quickly lowered her head, took out her cell phone and called Lu Wenli, but no one answered.
Lu Xingchen squatted down dejectedly...
After a long time, a pair of men's casual leather shoes appeared in her sight. She looked at them for a while, and her hands hanging on the shoes suddenly tightened. She raised her head suddenly and fiercely.
not him!
It was the first time that Chu Zeyan saw Lu Xingchen so frightened and angry. He quickly retracted the teasing that was about to come out of his mouth. He squatted down in front of her and asked softly: "Lu Xingchen, what happened?"
Lu Xingchen suddenly stood up and took two steps back to distance himself from him. The calmness on his face became a little more indifferent, and so was his voice.
"Mr. Chu."
But there was no further words. She just nodded and turned to walk towards Zhencheng.
Chu Zeyan followed and asked, "Are you looking for someone in such a hurry?"
Lu Xingchen frowned, stopped walking and looked at Chu Zeyan, "Boss Chu, please stay away from me if you have nothing to do. This is the last time I will have a polite conversation with you today."
After saying that, she continued walking towards the company.
This time, Chu Zeyan stood where he was and did not follow.
Lu Xingchen walked back to the building and got into the elevator before she saw the WeChat message Li Zhen sent her: What happened?
Lu Xingchen held the phone tightly until he walked out of the elevator and before entering the office, he replied to Li Zhen: I met a colleague and hung up.
Li Zhen didn't think much about it through the phone until he almost fell asleep and Luo Shi sent him a video.
Lu Xingchen looked around in the square in front of the company, and finally squatted down. Then Chu Zeyan slowly walked in front of her. Lu Xingchen suddenly looked up, and Chu Zeyan slowly squatted down, and the two looked at each other...
Li Zhen's brows suddenly frowned, because the video was shot at the same time when he was video chatting with Lu Xingchen.
Is Luo Shi tired of living?
He called Luo Shi directly in annoyance, "You are so far away, and you are still doing these things all day long?"
Luo Shi felt wronged. "I also saw it in the company group. Not to mention that Lu Xingchen was rumored to have an affair with Hua Xun's CEO Chu, she herself is very eye-catching. The e-commerce team is holding an event in the square today. How can they not be photographed if they are so high-profile?"
After hearing this, Li Zhen was unable to refute and hung up the phone and threw it on the bedside table.
After lying down for a while and unable to fall asleep, he tossed and turned several times. Finally, he couldn't help but sit up, grabbed his phone and sent a WeChat message to Lu Xingchen.
I know you're not
But don't see Chu Zeyan again, I feel sad
Also, I am not a playful person, I won't do anything that can make you sad.
Lu Xingchen felt mixed emotions as he read the message.
If she doubted Li Zhen, it was actually her own inner uneasiness that was at work. After being with Li Zhen, she would often ask herself when she saw him happy, why should she force her current miserable life into his smooth life?
You have made no contribution or help in his successful life, and you may even be a burden.
Lu Xingchen held the phone for a long time and replied: Work with peace of mind, I have nothing to do with Chu Zeyan
Xingyao: Then tell me when you get home from get off work and I’ll send you a video.
Lu Xingchen: OK
Xingyao: Please go back soon. I want to see you sooner.
Lu Xingchen couldn't help but curl his lips, and the next second he sighed and replied: OK
Xingyao: I like you
Lu Xingchen's nose felt sore, and he held his forehead with his hand for a long time, and replied: I like you too
I just don’t know how long I can love it.
Will this be the last time I tell you?
In fact, many years ago, I told you very hard and sincerely as if it were the last time that I have always liked you.
