Chapter 1590. Meeting (4)
“No, Liuyun, I… ”
Lan Xiu wanted to say something, but Dongfang Liuyun had already raised her hand to stop him—
“Besides, I’m afraid there’s no chance now. You’re my most respected friend and companion. I hope that you can live authentically, happily, and not sell your marriage out of sympathy. You’ve had it tough these past few years. We even agreed that when you get married, I would at least prepare a generous gift for you. I’ve already prepared the gift, but I haven’t had the chance to give it away yet… ”
“Liuyun! You know very well that I don’t have any sympathy for you, you know my feelings for you, but… With my abilities now I should be able to protect you, I can protect you and not be like before. I can do better, why do you… ”
Lan Xiu’s dark eyes were filled with traces of pain. He reached out and grabbed Dongfang Liuyun’s shoulders, locking onto her cold eyes tightly—
However, in those eyes, he could only see a calmness, or a sense of helplessness and disappointment in the depths of her eyes…
“You know the reason. You’re great, Lan Xiu. I know, but as you said, we’re more suited to be best friends or confidants. I shouldn’t have asked that of you. At least, we can get along more at ease now, still the same as before.”
“I was crazy to have refused, Liuyun.”
“Alright, Lan Xiu. Don’t bring this up again in the future. You go to the airport first, don’t make Mr. Ge anxious, it wasn’t easy to persuade him. This thing can’t be wasted just like that. Ah Li, send your President Lan to the airport immediately, I’ll give Mr. Ge a call. If we make it at this time, we should be able to make it through the express ring. If anything, we’ll talk when we get back.”
