She seed to have drawn a chasm between them, refusing to let him cross it!
Perhaps, just like three years ago, he was too anxious!
He had made so many mistakes; how could he fix them all at once?
Lu Beiyao silently followed behind her until he escorted her ho, and neither of them spoke a word. It was as if, just like those three years, they were used to it?
The car ca to a steady stop at the Lu Family’s door. Just as Li Siru was about to get out of the car, Lu Beiyao suddenly asked, "That ti you said you liked , was it true?"
After he said that, he quickly added, "It’s not that I don’t believe you, it’s just..."
This was his only hope; he just wanted to confirm, to verify a little!
"But I also said, I no longer like you anymore!" Li Siru unbuckled her seatbelt and calmly said, "Lu Beiyao, there’s a pile of ss at ho waiting for to clean up. As for my sister-in-law’s matters at the hospital, I’ll trouble you with that. That’s also what you promised my cousin. In the future, there’s no need for us to et anymore!"
Lu Beiyao reached out to grab her, but then suddenly let go.
Li Siru glanced at him, pressed her lips together, and directly pushed the door open to leave.
Her silhouette moved further and further away, until it disappeared. Lu Beiyao closed his eyes and sighed.
Having been accustod to hurt, accustod to indifference, to the point of truly becoming indifferent, yet not knowing how to use passion to lt it away...
With Mr. Li hospitalized, the Li Family was in chaos, causing the teahouse business to fall into disarray as well. Many collaborators, who initially had good relations, were also showing signs of withdrawing cooperation.
Li Siru had to step in personally to negotiate each business deal back.
Before Zhou Ju’an returned, she had to maintain the status quo of the Li Family and then hand it over to him.
Previously, when she was with the Li Family, the family never let her handle the teahouse matters. Moreover, she entered the Lu Family early... which led to her lack of knowledge about business affairs.
She cramd a lot with the help of the steward before forcing herself to go negotiate business in person.
However, she never thought that each business negotiation would go so smoothly and easily.
It wasn’t until everything was settled that Lu Beiyao appeared before her again.
After a long ti of not seeing him, Lu Beiyao appeared as calm and poised as when they first t.
He parked the car in front of her, rolled down the window and said, "Do you have ti?"
She was wearing a dark blue blazer and pencil skirt. Because of her petite figure, her waist appeared even slimr. The black stockings wrapped around her straight legs with a hint of allure. Lu Beiyao had never seen her looking so capable.
Li Siru hesitated for a mont before opening the car door and sitting inside. "Alright then, given how smoothly the Li Family’s business went recently, it’s all thanks to you, isn’t it? Since you ca to find , should I say thank you?"
Lu Beiyao leaned over directly to fasten her seatbelt. His familiar scent filled her nostrils. Li Siru didn’t move, her expression unchanged, but she didn’t stop his actions.
"It was my carelessness that led to your grandfather being hospitalized and your mother’s treatnt being delayed... Since you want to protect that family well, I will certainly help you keep it." He spoke beside her, his deep voice carrying a sense of promise, not at all as overbearing as he used to be.
He fastened her seatbelt in one swift motion, then stood up and smiled, "Your birthday is coming up. I want to give you a birthday present!"
