Chapter 542
Xie Zhuo, who was at the door, was clearly shocked when he saw her face.
Their eyes met, and after five seconds, the assistant behind Xie Zhuo said: "Thank you, Brother?"
Xie Zhuo walked into the meeting room.
Secretary Sun stood up and came forward to welcome them, "Director Xie, welcome to our residence. Let me introduce you to the people here, this is the secretary responsible for Datian Group, Miss An Sheng."
An Sheng stood up and walked over to Xie Zhuo with a heavy leg.
She took the initiative to extend her hand and look at him, "Hello, I'm An Sheng."
Xie Zhuo stared at her and slowly reached out his hand to hold hers: "Hello, I'm Xie Zhuo."
An Sheng let go, but Xie Zhuo didn't let go.
She looked at him and, with a little effort, drew her hand away.
Secretary Sun invited everyone to take a seat.
The group entered the meeting room.
From the begi
ing of the discussion, An Sheng had been in a state of disarray.
Until the end of the meeting, everyone left with their information.
Xie Zhuo moved very slowly as he was waiting for An Sheng.
However, Secretary Sun, who was beside An Sheng, was also waiting for her.
After cleaning up the documents, An Sheng nodded at Xie Zhuo and said, "Director Xie, we'll be going back first. Please be careful on your way back."
Secretary Sun also said goodbye to him before leaving with An Sheng.
Xie Zhuo followed her out of the meeting room. He frowned as he saw An Sheng walking further away.
After An Sheng organized the information, she left the Kang's Group.
She went downstairs, and just as she arrived at the parking lot, she saw Xie Zhuo, who was standing not far away.
He had been delayed because of a little work just now, so he didn't expect to see her again in such a large underground parking lot.
Excited, he closed the door and walked over to her.
An Sheng stood on the spot as she looked at Xie Zhuo, who was walking closer.
He pursed his lips. "Sheng'er, long time no see."
An Sheng replied with an indifferent expression, "Yes, it has been a long time."
"You ?? Have you been all right? "
An Sheng nodded. "It's pretty good. You're pretty good too, aren't you?"
"I'm not so good, I've never been so good." Xie Zhuo looked at her. "All these years, I've been muddleheaded and really missed you."
An Sheng lightly bit the corner of her lips and lowered her eyes.
Xie Zhuo took a step forward and raised his hand to grab her shoulder, but she took a step back.
He looked at her with a slightly injured expression. "Sheng'er ??"
An Sheng also realized that she had purposefully avoided him just now, which hurt his heart a bit. However, she didn't know what to say to him.
He retracted his hand and smiled bitterly. "It's been so long. Let's have a cup of coffee together."
"I still have some things to do, I need to go back to the company."
"Then I'll go with you and wait for you to finish your work."
She looked up at him.
He said, "I have no other intentions. I just want to chat with you about the recent developments of these years. It won't take up too much of your time."
She raised her wrist and checked the time. "I only have thirty minutes."
"Okay, where are we going?"
"There's a coffee shop by the door. Let's go there."
Xie Zhuo nodded. The two of them went out together and arrived at the coffee shop next to the company.
After entering the store, Xie Zhuo told her to take a seat. He ordered two cups of coffee and carried them over.
"Blue Mountain, added sugar."
"Thank you," An Sheng said as she took the coffee cup. This was her favorite taste many years ago.
He actually still remembered it.
Xie Zhuo sat down and looked at her. He had a lot of words to say, but he didn't know where to start.
"I'm currently working in Hua Hai, working as the manager of the design department. The Prince Mansion Garden project is the first step for our company to advance into the North City, and I put in a lot of effort as well."
An Sheng nodded. "This project is very good, I feel that the Kang's Group choosing your company is already enough to prove your strength."
Xie Zhuo pursed his lips, "Looking at your appearance at the meeting today, it made me think of you from the past. At that time, you were also glowing with confidence."
An Sheng was silent for a moment. "Thank you for your praise."
"Ah, Sheng'er, have we become so distant from each other?"
An Sheng's slender fingers gripped the handle of her coffee cup tightly.
Xie Zhuo said, "Don't be so nervous, okay? You make me feel like I'm forcing you. "
As he spoke, he reached out and took her hand, which was holding the coffee cup. "Sheng'er, even if we can't be husband and wife, we're still friends. Didn't we agree on this in the past?"
An Sheng nodded.
At this moment, on the roadside outside the coffee shop, Qiao Yuran quietly took out her phone to record this scene.
Looking at the clear picture on her phone, she felt a surge of joy. She didn't even buy coffee, but turned around and headed back to the company.
An Sheng pulled her hand away and looked at him with a faint smile, "There's something that I don't know if I can tell you all of a sudden."
"Go ahead."
"I'm getting married."
Hearing that, Xie Zhuo's expression froze: "Marry? You have a boyfriend? "
An Sheng nodded. "He doesn't know anything about me and you, so I might not invite you to my wedding. Please forgive me."
Xie Zhuo lowered his eyelids, feeling very uncomfortable in his heart.
Seeing him like this, she breathed out, "Xie Zhuo, I really have something to do in the company. I have to go."
"Is he nice to you?" He looked up at her.
An Sheng nodded.
Xie Zhuo asked again, "Is he someone who can shield you from the wind and rain?"
An Sheng nodded again, not looking at him.
Xie Zhuo sighed. "Why..." Five years ago, you would have thought I wasn't a person who could protect you? An Sheng, I really don't understand why the person who rejected me would be you. All these years, I have been working hard. I have desperately tried to make myself outstanding, all because I wanted to tell you that I can give you the pair of shoulders that you want. "
An Sheng was well aware of how hurt he was when she suddenly broke up with him all those years ago.
However, she was doing this for his own good.
Some feelings, since they knew from the begi
ing that there wouldn't be a good ending, why did they insist on it?
She didn't answer his question, but stood up and said, "I'll leave first. Be careful when you drive back to the company."
Xie Zhuo stood up and went in front of her to block her: "An Sheng."
An Sheng looked at him and said, "Xie Zhuo, the feelings I had for you back then probably weren't that deep. After all, it's not that easy to give up sincere feelings, but I ?? It was done so easily. "
Xie Zhuo's heart was slightly bitter.
An Sheng apologized to him and went around him.
Xie Zhuo stood on the spot and couldn't move for a long time.
An Sheng returned to the Kang's Group's underground parking lot and sat in her own car. She felt an indescribable sadness in her heart.
She leaned on the steering wheel, trying hard to control her emotions.
When she was ready to leave, her WeChat message rang.
She picked up the phone and looked at it.
It was Qiao Yuran who sent her a photo.
