The Empress's Transmigration into a Magnate's Wife

Chapter 263

He Nianhao took a sip of the champagne in his glass, thinking about how to give Rong Dai a reasonable explanation.

She didn't want to hurt the feelings between her and Huo Shao Ting because of something she hadn't handled well, nor did she want Huo Shao Ting to feel insecure because of this.

She had already gotten what she wanted.

Although some things were easy to obtain, safeguarding took 100% effort.

She turned her head and smiled faintly at He Nianhao: "Senior He, you're great, but you're not the one who can make my heart flutter."

"Thank you very much for your dedication these past two years. Perhaps I didn't handle this matter clearly personally, wasting your time on me, I'm very sorry for that."

"Senior He, you're so excellent, I believe you'll meet a girl who can make your heart stir in the future. I will bless you."

Rong Dai's reply was very official, but it was also one of the most direct and decisive ways to resolve emotional entanglements.

She didn't like He Nianhao, nor did she want He Nianhao to have any more illusions about her.

If you don't love someone, refuse them.

Rather than dragging things out and enjoying someone else's dedication without any reciprocation or effort in return.

That was not only shameful, but hateful.

He Nianhao smiled faintly, his eyes dimmed a little, looking more melancholy.

The most poisonous words were nothing more than this.

It wasn't that you weren't good enough, it was that you weren't enough to make my heart stir.

This sentence perfectly summed up his two years of pursuit, as if it were a joke.

"Senior He, what do you like about me? Or rather, what about me attracted you?"

Seeing that he didn't speak, Rong Dai thought for a moment and couldn't help asking him.

After all, the original host's reclusive personality made it very difficult for people to get close to her, as could be seen from Song Xuechun and Liang Jiayi's reactions.

"Because of loneliness."

He Nianhao replied lightly, his deep and melancholy eyes gazing at Rong Dai: "Because I saw loneliness in you, I'm the same kind of person, you're different from others."

Rong Dai: "..."

What kind of reason was this?

I like you because I feel you're lonely?

Please forgive her for being unable to comprehend such an answer with her old soul.

"It's possible that Senior He felt wrong. I'm not lonely at all. I'm very good now, Huo Shao Ting treats me very well, and I love him very much too. He's the only man in this life who can keep making my heart stir."

She could only retaliate, to make He Nianhao give up completely.

If she had known she would encounter such an unexpected person as He Nianhao at this wine gathering, she wouldn't have come.

Because the original host hadn't told them about the entanglement between them, and the more she said, the more wrong it would be, and then there would be no way to smooth things over later.

"I understand, thank you for giving me an answer."

He Nianhao smiled gently, but his melancholy expression was very obvious.

"If I hadn't gotten this answer from you, I might have had a hard time moving on for the rest of my life. Thank you for being direct with me. I wish you and Mr. Huo happiness."

Hearing He Nianhao's words, Rong Dai sighed lightly in her heart.

Although she had only interacted with him for a few minutes, the attraction of this man was fatal.

He and Huo Shao Ting were different types of people, but the attraction was 100%.

One was a noble, abstinent king.

The other was a gentle, melancholy prince.

Two different types, either of which could easily capture a woman's heart.

She couldn't help feeling a little regretful for the original host.

If the original host hadn't been in such a terrible environment, perhaps she could have ended up with He Nianhao as well?

But now, saying these things was useless.

The past had become smoke and clouds, now she was Rong Dai.

"I'll be going abroad in a few days. My father has always wanted me to study abroad and take over the family business. I've always struggled and resisted, but now I think this doesn't seem so bad."

He Nianhao said lightly with a faint smile.

Rong Dai was stunned for a moment, always feeling that He Nianhao's choice to do this was because of her.

"I wish you success in your studies."

She reached out and said lightly.

Other than that, she didn't know what else would be good to say.

He Nianhao looked at her hand, and suddenly took out a bracelet from his pocket.

The bracelet was exquisitely designed, with shiny water drop-shaped diamonds and inlaid sapphires.

Rong Dai had an eye for quality, she could tell at a glance that this bracelet was valuable, made purely by hand. She instinctively wanted to withdraw her hand, but was grabbed by the wrist by He Nianhao.

"Don't reject me, this is the last time, in the future... it's Chairman Huo."

He Nianhao looked at her with a hint of pleading in his eyes.

"I made this bracelet myself, originally it had another meaning, but now as your wedding gift it's not bad either."

Rong Dai struggled for a bit then stopped, quietly letting He Nianhao put the bracelet on her wrist.

Although He Nianhao's explanation puzzled her, this melancholy man made her heart ache.

She could only bless him in her heart to find a girl to accompany him for life soon.

To the two involved, this scene didn't seem overly intimate, but the photo was taken by someone else, and because of the angle, it looked especially intimate, as if the two were a couple.

"Thank you."

With the bracelet on her wrist, Rong Dai only felt as if it were burning her wrist.

This belonged to the feelings between He Nianhao and the original Rong Dai.

"I have other matters to attend to, please excuse me."

Rong Dai said softly, nodded slightly, then went back into the venue holding her wine glass.

"Where did you go? I looked for you for half a day and couldn't find you, I thought you got lost."

As soon as she returned, she saw Lu Nianzhi looking anxious.

She took a sip of wine to calm herself, took off the bracelet from her wrist, and handed it to Lu Nianzhi to put away properly.

"Who gave this to you? This bracelet... is quite valuable."

Lu Nianzhi had profound skills, she naturally recognized the value of the bracelet at a glance, and that it was handcrafted.

Rong Dai sat down and gestured with her eyes for her to look at He Nianhao who had just come out.

"Mr. He's son? He gave it to you?" Lu Nianzhi felt a little unbelievable.

Rong Dai laughed and cried, and simply explained the ins and outs of the matter briefly.

"Tsk, if Chairman Huo had been on the scene, I can imagine what he would have done. But a girl as beautiful as you, with so much talent, attracting people is normal."

Knowing that Lu Nianzhi was teasing her, Rong Dai could only smile bitterly and drink wine to calm herself.

After Lu Nianzhi put away the bracelet, she asked, "Why don't I see TK's people? Aren't they coming?"

"They'll come, just a bit late."

Lu Nianzhi explained. She had just gone to ask He Zhenglie about this matter earlier.

Rong Dai nodded. The two sat quietly in the corner again, tasting wine. But after a few minutes, Rong Dai felt the eyes of everyone in the venue focused on her, whispering to each other.

She couldn't help frowning and asked Lu Nianzhi softly: "Sister Nianzhi, is there something on me? Why do I feel like everyone is looking at me?"

Lu Nianzhi was perceptive, she naturally noticed it too.

At that moment, her phone buzzed. She took it out of her bag to check it, and her expression changed instantly!
