I: [Um, can I call you on video?]
Lily: [No way!]
She directly refused.
I wouldn’t listen. I initiated the video call. She hung up on the first one, the second one as well, and the third one rang for over ten seconds before being hung up.
I persisted, dialing the fourth one; it rang for over thirty seconds before she answered.
In the video, her expression was serious. "Can’t we talk through ssages? Why do we have to video call?"
She seed a bit annoyed, but there was no hint of anger on her face. I knew this woman was conflicted.
She didn’t answer the previous calls because she wanted to play hard to get.
"Words can’t express my longing for you," I said.
A smooth talker through and through.
"William, what nonsense are you talking about?" She said, "Didn’t I say it before—I’m your superior, and we can’t be together."
I said thoughtfully. "Love knows no boundaries. It doesn’t care about age or hierarchy. In the company, you’re afraid, but outside the company, why not?"
"If you keep talking nonsense, I’ll hang up."
Her face showed anger, but the corners of her mouth slightly curved up. She must be enjoying the attention.
"How can you accuse of spouting nonsense? My feelings are as clear as day and night. If it were possible, I’d tear my heart out for you to see. Haven’t my previous declarations been enough?"
"Who’d want to see your heart? Even a dog wouldn’t touch it if you served it up!"
I wasn’t afraid of her scolding. Instead, I was worried she’d hang up without a word, which would an it was really over.
"Ms. Wilson, since the day we parted ways, I couldn’t eat, couldn’t sleep at night, but I’m also afraid you’ll ignore . I thought all night and mustered the courage to tell myself: I can’t be a shy coward; I have to express my love for you. I can’t wait any longer!"
These words gave goosebumps.
Lily’s eyes flashed with panic. "William, I warn you, don’t talk nonsense: we can’t be together!"
"How do you know it’s impossible if you don’t try? Am I missing an arm or a leg compared to others? Am I inferior to anyone?" I said, "Ms. Wilson, watch closely, I will make you see in a new light."
"Let’s talk about it when that day cos. I’m tired, I’m hanging up!"
After saying that, she hung up directly.
I chuckled, thinking the fish took the bait.
Switching to another account, she indeed ssaged: [Low-key guy, he... he really called . What should I do, my heart is in turmoil!]
I: [Oh? So, I guessed right; it seems he’s sincere towards you, so why not follow your heart?]
Lily: [I don’t know what to do. Should I agree or refuse?]
I: [The decision is in your hands, no one can force you to do anything.]
At tis like this, I absolutely cannot make decisions for her. If there are problems later, she will definitely bla , which is not good for my image!
Lily: [So... should I give it a try?]
I: [You already have an answer in your heart; just follow your heart.]
I was overjoyed.
Lily: [Thank you, Low-key guy, but even though I want to try, it’s impossible for him to get it so quickly!]
I thought, ’It’s okay, as long as you have that thought.’
I: [My pleasure.]
I sent a smiling face.
Lily: [By the way, Low-key guy, I have a friend who’s recently encountered so problems. Are you available?]
I: [I’m available, just pass my contact information to her, and I’ll help out!]
Lily: [That’s great, you’ll definitely be able to help her.]
At this point, Jessica still hadn’t replied to my ssage. I couldn’t help but wonder where she went at night.
’Did she go find other n?’
The thought made instantly uneasy.
’Can this promiscuous woman resist?’
I doubted it!
’If that’s the case, won’t I be cuckolded?’
I waited until midnight, but she remained silent.
’Forget it, let’s talk about it tomorrow. I prayed in my heart, she better not be taken away by soone else, or all my efforts these days would be in vain.’
But then again, I did neglect her during this ti.
I needed to make it up to her. The best way to compensate her was through physical comfort, which was more effective than any words. I even thought, ’If it cos to that, I’ll wear a mask to the appointnt.’
This idea seed feasible to . Back in college, the departnt once organized a masquerade ball.
n and won wore elaborate masks, and they relied solely on each other’s speech to infer each other’s character.
This thod had its pros and cons. The advantage was that it added a sense of mystery, provided a psychological thrill, and deepened her impression of .
As the saying goes, curiosity killed the cat, and won are creatures with even greater curiosity than cats.
The downside was that while once or twice was fine, if it happened too often, the other party would surely beco suspicious.
However, this was undoubtedly a feasible thod.
I organized a set of scripts in my mind, repeatedly calculating and ensuring there were no issues before finally falling asleep.
The next day, I got up early, dressed in Versace, wore a Longines watch, and ticulously grood my hair.
Previously, wearing these brands always made feel guilty, but now that feeling was gone.
Money was a man’s courage, and that was no exaggeration.
Heading out with my handbag, I thought. "Now I just need a ride."
Although I still had about five million on hand, the dance training class needed promotion, hiring people, and networking—would this money be enough? I had no idea.
Things didn’t go as planned, so I’ll just have to roll with the punches for now.
But having money ant I could indulge a bit, so I called a taxi directly and arrived at the company’s doorstep.
