Chapter 612: Chapter 409 She now only wants to ask Lu Yinchu_2
“Thank you….”
The docunts in Nanxi’s hands were suddenly yanked away. She looked up, startled. The man who had dropped the docunts had already picked them up. He said his thanks again before quickly leaving with the docunts in hand.
Liao Feifei exhaled slowly, standing up and said sowhat helplessly, “Looks like we’ll have to wait a while for the elevator again.”
“…..”
Without hearing a response, Liao Feifei furrowed her brows. Noticing that Nanxi was still crouching on the ground, she called out in bewildernt, “Nanxi?”
Nanxi was montarily taken aback, then lifted her head to et Feifei’s gaze.
She ca to her senses.
“…Oh!” Nanxi stood up, her eyes flashing slightly, her throat feeling a bit dry.
“Nanxi, what’s wrong? You look so pale.” Liao Feifei grabbed Nanxi’s arm, her expression full of worry.
Nanxi was stunned. She touched her face, then shook her head. “I’m okay. Probably… probably just tired.”
After a pause, she turned to look at Feifei and asked, “Feifei, those docunts from earlier, do you know what they were about?”
“Oh, they seed to be rejected manuscripts from previous years.”
“Rejected manuscripts?” Nanxi was confused.
Feifei went on to explain, “You see, our magazine, as the authoritative economic periodical in H city, demands that the news we report must be both reliable and applicable, delivering the most tily and explosive information. However, society is such; even if we hold so pieces of news or information that we can verify as true, it’s not always easy to publish them. Often, we face so… suppression.”
“Suppression?” Nanxi’s eyes flashed slightly, her heart constricting. “You an, so news pieces are suppressed by those higher-ups?”
Feifei nodded. “Isn’t it just so! After all, we at the magazine also need to put food on the table. So big shots are just too powerful to offend. It doesn’t matter whether you’re part of the Culture Bureau or any other departnt; they can ruin you with just a flick of their finger.”
Nanxi took a deep breath, feeling a tightness in her chest. The elevator door opened, and Feifei stretched out a hand to pull her in. “The elevator’s here. Let’s go!”
But Nanxi didn’t move.
“Nanxi?” Feifei called out.
“…” Nanxi looked up, her expression slightly dazed. Then, Feifei simply pulled her into the elevator.
Watching the floors change on the elevator display, Nanxi’s heart felt as cold as if it were plunged into an ice cellar.
She hadn’t been able to clearly see the content of the report earlier, but the photograph—the level of intimacy it captured—what else could Lu Yinchu deny?
Did he really have no relationship with Han Qing?
And how was the tail ring and Han Qing’s rmaid pendant explained?
For the past few months, Lu Yinchu had indeed treated her well. But his approach was deceptive!
She couldn’t guarantee that all the words he said to her were one hundred percent true!
She also couldn’t guarantee that he had never lied to her…
Besides, he had admitted that he had once considered Han Qing; he had considered being with Han Qing!
If he hadn’t t her in A County, he might have married Han Qing long ago!
…
At the entrance of the magazine office, Liao Feifei said goodbye to Nanxi, asking her, “It’s still early now, where are you going?”
Nanxi pursed her lips, “I… I’m going to wait for my husband to get off work!”
After hearing this, Feifei nodded, “Alright then, be careful on the road. Give a call or send a text when you get there!”
“Okay!”
Nanxi nodded her head, noticing a taxi approaching. She quickly flagged it down, said goodbye to Feifei, opened the car door, and got in.
The taxi driver asked her, “Miss, where to?”
Nanxi bit her lip, and spoke softly, “Please, take to the K.I.N.G. Corporation.”
…
About twenty minutes later, Nanxi arrived at the K.I.N.G. Corporation. She stepped into the lobby and headed straight for the elevator, pressing the number for the top floor.
The elevator slowly ascended.
When the elevator door opened, she t the assistant to the secretary, whom she vaguely rembered. She nodded at him and walked towards Lu Yinchu’s office.
The assistant stared in confusion.
The various secretaries in the secretary’s office, who had all seen Nanxi before, were too professional to voice their doubts.
However, Nanxi rembered that information about Lu Yinchu’s cold had first leaked from this office…
But at the mont, she wasn’t concerned about this. What she wanted now was to ask Lu Yinchu, to find out what was really going on.
She needed to know the history behind his signet ring. Why was his signet ring the sa design as Han Qing’s rmaid pendant?
She had to find out the reason!
Secretary Li also noticed Nanxi in the office and appeared surprised. He quickly caught up with her, calling out, “Miss Gu…”
Nanxi stopped, her eyes flickering as she saw Secretary Li. She said, “I… I’m looking for him.”
Secretary Li nodded and said to Nanxi, “Miss Gu, Mr. Lu should be in a eting with his assistant in the conference room right now. It’ll be at least half an hour before he gets out… How about this, you wait in his office, and I’ll go inquire…”
“No need!” Nanxi bit her lip, “I’ll wait for him to return, there’s no need for you to find him.”
Even though she was anxious, she didn’t want to disrupt his work.
After hearing this, Secretary Li nodded and led Nanxi to the office. He then brought her a cup of milk tea, a fruit tray, and two magazines…
Only after that did he leave.
Nanxi picked up the milk tea and took a sip. The warm, milky flavor was quite enjoyable—it was a taste she liked.
The fruit on the fruit tray was all very fresh, probably prepared on a regular basis.
But right now, she wasn’t in the mood to appreciate these things. She didn’t have any interest at all!
She rose to her feet and moved towards Lu Yinchu’s rest room. She’d been here more than once before. She’d even slept here once.
The room was the sa as it had always been. The bedsheet was pure white and very clean, showing signs it had been tidied up.
Nanxi walked up to the side of the bed. The copy of “The Poems of Tagore” that used to be on the table was gone. She opened the drawer and indeed found the book inside.
It looked like it had been tossed inside carelessly, so pages wrinkled…
But it was on the bedside table, a place where it could have been rembered at any given mont. A sudden pang of pain erupted in her heart.
She opened the book to find the bookmark had fallen out. The words on it caught her eye once more: “You dwell in my heart quietly, silently, like the full moon in the night.”
