Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

I don’t want to see you sad...

Xu Weilai’s eyes widened and she couldn’t believe her ears.

He was the one who dragged her into this set up. Now, he wanted her to back out so easily?

She froze for a minute and said, “Did you feel pity for me because I saved you?”

Zuo An couldn’t look directly into her bright eyes. He averted his gaze to the vast night sky and said in a deep voice, “Actually, I regret it. Weilai, you’re a very good woman. You don’t have to participate in this kind of power struggle.”

He paused for a moment before looking back at Xu Weilai. “Of course, you don’t have to worry about the future. You can continue to run news. No matter if you want to go abroad or stay in China, Z magazine will provide you with tasks.”

After he said so much, Xu Weilai finally understood that this was the reason Zuo An had invited her to this meal.

He now hoped that she would withdraw from this battle. Whether it was him, Gu Yu, or Zuo Si, he wanted her to stay far away from them and live her own life.

At this moment, he was truly thinking of her. This was probably the first time he had shown his sincerity to her after they had known each other for so long.

But...

Xu Weilai’s lips twitched, and she shook her head at him firmly. “Big Boss, it’s too late.”

Gu Yu couldn’t control her life, and neither could Zuo An. Her current life was under her control, and she only did what she wanted to do.

“Since I’ve already stepped into this set up, I won’t quit halfway through. I’ve said it before. I’ll return all the pain that Gu Yu has caused me, and I’ll return it personally!”

Her voice was very soft, but her words were loud and clear. Every word seemed to hit one’s heart, and it was impossible to ignore.

This answer wasn’t unexpected to Zuo An, but at this moment, when he looked at the determination on the woman’s face, his heart was still slightly shaken.

He fixed his gaze on her and suddenly laughed softly. Almost mumbling, he said, “You and her... are really very different.”

Xu Weilai still heard him and reflexively asked, “Her? Who?”

Zuo An realized what he had said and smiled again. He quickly restrained all his emotions and didn’t answer her. Instead, he said, “If you don’t want to, then forget it. But you have to promise me one thing.”

“What is it?”

Zuo An raised his hand and his large palm gently landed on Xu Weilai’s head. He rubbed it gently, like he was treating a fragile doll. “Don’t be sad.”

His palm was unexpectedly warm. Xu Weilai froze. She blinked her eyes and didn’t snap back to reality for a long time.

When a gust of wind blew past, Xu Weilai snapped back to reality and nodded her head dazedly.

Zuo An retracted his hand and smiled. “Let’s go. I’ll send you back.”

“Okay.”

Xu Weilai stood still. She took a deep breath, lifted her feet, and walked down the mountain.

–

Monday, in the Vice President’s office.

Qiao Chu stood in front of his desk while reporting to Zuo An about what had happened. However, he noticed that he was frequently distracted. Following his line of sight, he could see Xu Weilai’s work station through the floor-to-ceiling glass window.

He didn’t know what was wrong with Xu Weilai, but she seemed to appear restless. Her beautiful eyebrows would occasionally furrow, and the expression on her face showed that she was in pain.

Zuo An suddenly said, “You say...”

Qiao Chu immediately looked away and said seriously, “Mr. Zuo, what don’t you understand about this project?”
