294: Chapter 294 [Do you have anyone you want to see regardless of everything?] Third update 294: Chapter 294 [Do you have anyone you want to see regardless of everything?] Third update The third chapter!
Gu Jundie was taken aback.
Does Chu Qingxue really come home during work hours?
Especially with so many things going on in the company these days!
“You…
you’re really leaving?” Chu Qingxue leaned against the door, watching Ye Chenfeng pack his things.
Ye Chenfeng slowly turned his head, “Wasn’t the contract for today?
Did I remember wrong?”
Chu Qingxue nodded, “No, you’re right.
It’s today!”
“Oh!” Ye Chenfeng smiled, then flipped through his things and took out the contract they had signed at the beginning.
Chu Qingxue’s eyes flickered and she felt a pang of nervousness in her heart.
“I remember when we first signed the contract, you didn’t let me go to the second floor.
But later, I went up frequently.
Not only that, we even slept in the same bed.
How nostalgic!
Three months isn’t a long time but it isn’t short either, yet I still couldn’t make you fall for me.
Here, take it back!” Ye Chenfeng handed the contract over.
Chu Qingxue’s hands trembled as she took the contract, feeling an emptiness in her heart.
She had thought Ye Chenfeng would keep it as a memento, but he returned it after all.
“Are you really leaving?” Chu Qingxue didn’t even realize she had spoken aloud.
Ye Chenfeng glanced at her, “Hasn’t it been your wish to see me leave?
Now that I’m going, you should be happy.
Why the long face?
Don’t be sad, I’ll take you out for dinner to thank you for hosting me these past three months!”
“You jerk!” Chu Qingxue shouted angrily.
“Go ahead, curse at me.
You might not get the chance again later!” Ye Chenfeng smiled and continued packing his luggage.
Watching Ye Chenfeng’s busy figure, Chu Qingxue felt an overwhelming sadness.
Tears welled up in her eyes despite her efforts to hold them back.
She didn’t understand why she felt so reluctant to see this man she disliked leave.
Moreover, Ye Chenfeng seemed different today, as if he had changed.
The usual playful demeanor was gone.
Normally, he would tease her, but today he had no desire to speak with her at all.
Chu Qingxue felt extremely aggrieved.
“Ye Chenfeng, could you…
could you…
make me a meal before you leave?” Chu Qingxue finally spoke after a long struggle.
In reality, she wanted to ask Ye Chenfeng not to leave, but she forced herself to stay silent and instead asked him to cook for her one last time.
“No problem, I don’t mind!” Ye Chenfeng said.
Not long after, Ye Chenfeng busied himself in the kitchen while Chu Qingxue stood nearby, silently watching him.
She seemed to be making an effort to memorize his serious figure.
“Ye Chenfeng, I realize you’re not that annoying, especially when you’re serious.
You even have a masculine charm!” Chu Qingxue said softly.
Ye Chenfeng turned and smiled, “Feel like marrying me?”
“Of course not!” Chu Qingxue replied coyly.
Ye Chenfeng said, “I also find you more and more feminine.
You used to have a constant expression, but now your emotions are written all over your face!”
“I’ve always been a woman, haven’t I?” Chu Qingxue said a bit discontentedly.
“True, you’ve always been a woman!” Ye Chenfeng laughed.
Chu Qingxue realized that in the past three months, these moments with Ye Chenfeng had been the most relaxed.
“Ye Chenfeng?”
“Yes?”
“Where will you go now?” Chu Qingxue couldn’t help but ask.
“I’ll go back to Changsheng Village first, then go to a place even I don’t know,” Ye Chenfeng replied.
Chu Qingxue was stunned and couldn’t help but ask, “A place even you don’t know?”
Ye Chenfeng nodded, “Yes, a place even I don’t know!”
“Ye Chenfeng, I find you more mysterious.
It’s like there’s a layer of fog around you, making it impossible to see the real you!” Chu Qingxue said.
“Is that so?
Even I didn’t know that.
Maybe you can consider it a man’s charm!” Ye Chenfeng said.
Chu Qingxue rolled her eyes, “A man’s charm?
I still don’t see it in you!”
“I knew you’d say that!” Ye Chenfeng laughed.
“Ye Chenfeng, if you wish, you could stay in Jiangnan.
The position of assistant to the president at Chu Corporation is still yours!” Chu Qingxue said, watching Ye Chenfeng’s reaction carefully.
Ye Chenfeng shook his head, “No need, I appreciate your offer.
My heart is no longer in Jiangnan, staying here has no meaning!”
“Then where is your heart?” Chu Qingxue couldn’t help but ask.
Ye Chenfeng didn’t answer her directly, instead asking, “Xue’xue, is there a place you’d go without hesitation?
Is there someone you’d risk everything to see?”
Chu Qingxue was taken aback, not quite understanding the meaning behind Ye Chenfeng’s question.
The place you’d go without hesitation, the person you’d risk everything to see.
These two phrases resonated with Chu Qingxue, stirring a surge of emotion and youthful passion in her.
She recalled having such feelings during her university days.
Immediately, Chu Qingxue bit her lip and nodded firmly, “Yes!”
Ye Chenfeng smiled, “Some things you have to do without hesitation to avoid any regrets!”
“So, are you going to see someone?” Chu Qingxue couldn’t help but ask.
Ye Chenfeng didn’t shy away and nodded, “Yes.”
“It must be someone you love deeply, right?” Chu Qingxue didn’t know why, but a sense of sadness filled her heart.
“Sister, Brother-in-law, Grandpa and I are here!”
At that moment, Chu Qingfei walked in, holding Chu Renkuang’s arm.
Uncle Fu followed behind.
Unlike Chu Qingxue’s melancholic expression, Chu Qingfei was delighted, almost bouncing with joy.
“Grandpa, Qingfei, you’re just in time.
Ye Chenfeng is cooking today, we’re in for a treat!” Chu Qingxue smiled.
“What?
Xiao Ye can cook?” Chu Renkuang asked.
Chu Qingfei beamed, “Grandpa, you don’t know?
Brother’s cooking is amazing, even better than those chefs at luxury hotels!”
“Oh!”
Seeing Chu Qingxue’s peculiar gaze, Chu Qingfei quickly shut her mouth, realizing she had mistakenly called him “Brother-in-law” instead of “Brother.”
“Calling him Brother is fine, because Xiao Ye is leaving today.
He won’t be your brother-in-law anymore, calling him Brother is okay,” the old man Chu said, glancing at Chu Qingfei.
Chu Qingfei pretended not to understand and weakly asked, “Grandpa, what’s going on?”
“Your sister and Xiao Ye made an agreement.
If they liked each other within three months, they would get married.
If not, the engagement would be canceled!” the old man explained patiently, but his brow was clouded with gloom.
