Chapter 492: Chapter 492: Why are you so obsessed with ? Chapter 492: Chapter 492: Why are you so obsessed with ? He Juanjuan didn’t know yet that Yuan Hengzhi had been transferred to the Tenghai Research Base.
Yuan Hengzhi wasn’t at the unit either, he had gone too, and no one knew where. After all, his work involved the sa duties as Director Lin.
Director Lin couldn’t get in touch with him, and had no idea why a girl had co from Beijing looking for him.
Then over the phone, he carefully asked, and found out that the girl’s na was Bai Zhi who claid to be Yuan Hengzhi’s girlfriend. Director Lin was used to viewing everything and everyone with skepticism.
He had never heard that Yuan Hengzhi had a girlfriend.
Why say that?
Because he once joked about setting Yuan Hengzhi up with soone, and Yuan just laughed, shook his head, and said he wasn’t in a hurry. If he really had a girlfriend, that wouldn’t be sothing Yuan Hengzhi would say, would it? Wouldn’t that be deceitful?
Even so, he couldn’t just let her stand outside the door. Director Lin hurriedly said, “Don’t worry, I’ll co to the gate to et you.”
As soon as Bai Zhi hung up the phone, He Juanjuan ran over and excitedly asked, “Miss Bai, are you really Brother Yuan’s girlfriend?”
Bai Zhi paused, then with a complicated look, she glanced at the pretty girl in front of her. An inexplicable wariness arose, and she nodded, “Yes.” Her tone was very affirmative, “I am Yuan Hengzhi’s girlfriend!”
“Oh, this guy has so good luck,” He Juanjuan said casually.
Bai Zhi’s eyes flickered, but it seed she rembered sothing and subtly distanced herself from He Juanjuan.
He Juanjuan didn’t notice this. She asked, “Who’s coming to pick you up?”
“Soone who claims to be Director Lin.”
“Oh, I know him; he’s the one in charge of security here.”
He Juanjuan actually wanted to stay there a while longer, although she was holding two carry bags, but seeing that Bai Zhi didn’t want to talk much, she felt it was no longer interesting.
He Juanjuan tugged at the corners of her mouth, thinking this woman called Bai Zhi was a bit weird.
Then she said to her, “Well, you wait here then, Director Lin will be here soon, I’m heading back…”
Bai Zhi nodded imperceptibly, biting her lip and not speaking further, suggesting she was not interested in continuing the interaction.
He Juanjuan pouted, ntally scoffing, thinking this woman must be crazy, what is Brother Yuan thinking?
She didn’t try to cozy up to Bai Zhi anymore, grabbing the two carry bags, she turned and hurried towards her brother’s house.
She too had a dormitory here, but when Qiao Qingyu wasn’t ho, she would move over.
She also knew her sister-in-law’s mother was here helping her sister-in-law with the pregnancy. She would soon have a little nephew or niece.
Her own mother had thought of coming to Xichuan when she heard her sister-in-law was pregnant, as she had never been here, but then imdiately dropped the idea.
Why?
Because Wu Qianyun was here.
He Juanjuan thought it was right not to co, for she was not familiar with her second sister-in-law, and with her own mother’s demanding and dependant nature, who would take care of whom here? Besides, He Juanjuan couldn’t think of a way to be of any help to Qiao Qingyu.
So, He Juanjuan could be said to have so self-awareness now.
After Bai Zhi was settled in the guest house by Director Lin, Yuan Hengzhi returned.
Knowing that Bai Zhi had arrived, Yuan Hengzhi’s expression changed repeatedly.
Director Lin found sothing off. Why didn’t Yuan Hengzhi look happy at all?
His suspicion grew, and he asked sternly, “Is there sothing wrong with this woman?”
Yuan Hengzhi frowned and waved his hand, “There doesn’t seem to be a problem right now…” He paused and then said with a bitter smile, “…she’s one of the people I t for matchmaking, but the lady hasn’t let go of her forr lover yet, and it seems she still has feelings for him. Yet she’s very clear, saying that although there are feelings, they belong to the past, and now she wants to be with ….”
Director Lin was sowhat shocked, “What does that an? Is she playing both sides?”
Yuan Hengzhi looked strangely at Director Lin. Why did he have to put it so bluntly? It was quite embarrassing for him.
Director Lin reacted very quickly.
Seeing that Yuan Hengzhi looked upset, he quickly asked, “Should I tell her that you’ve gone out on a mission and won’t be back for months?”
If it were said that way, that lady might feel awkward staying at the guest house. However, Yuan Hengzhi shook his head, “No, avoiding is not the solution. I’ll ask her why she is so persistent towards .”
Director Lin watched him touch his hair and gave him a kick, “You’re getting too cocky. You can’t even clear up this small matter yet you let soone chase you from Beijing to Xichuan. If it’s serious, just marry her and set things right. If not, make things clear to her. Prolonging this situation isn’t good for either of you…”
Yuan Hengzhi certainly understood this, but he couldn’t just ask a few questions and then send her away. He arranged for her to have a al in the cafeteria and took her out for a walk. When he found a quiet mont, he seriously asked, “Bai Zhi, I’m asking you one last ti, tell the truth, why are you so persistent?”
Bai Zhi was stunned, looking at Yuan Hengzhi with a complex expression.
Before she could speak, Yuan Hengzhi said sternly, “Don’t tell that you like ; we’re both adults here. Not only wouldn’t you believe it yourself, I wouldn’t either.”
Bai Zhi’s face turned awkward. She avoided Yuan Hengzhi’s gaze, tightly pursed her lips, and looked down, lost in thought.
Yuan Hengzhi was not in a hurry. He stood on the other side, hands in pockets, just waiting for Bai Zhi to reveal the truth.
Yuan Hengzhi himself hadn’t figured out the real reason yet.
Initially, he privately thought it was love at first sight, but then he accidentally saw the way Bai Zhi looked at Lan Jianqing, and it upset him incredibly.
How should he put it?
It was a gaze full of emotion. The two stood on opposite sides of a busy street, just staring at each other through the bustling crowd.
And he was standing right next to Bai Zhi. It was not a date, but Bai Zhi had co to see him again and brought him a bag of things which were quite heavy to carry. Could he accept them? He politely declined, then prepared to send Bai Zhi ho.
That’s when he witnessed the scene.
After the surge of disgust passed, he felt a sense of guilt. Yuan Hengzhi felt like he was the Queen Mother preventing the Cowherd and the Weaver from being together, or perhaps he was that very Milky Way itself.
Since then, the slight romantic thoughts he had once harbored had vanished, allowing him to view everything rationally now. Nevertheless, the girl didn’t do anything excessive; she just clung to him despite not liking him.
