?Chapter 553: Chapter 554: Strangers (3) _1 Chapter 553: Chapter 554: Strangers (3) _1 As he passed through a crowd of elegantly dressed people, he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure out of the corner of his eye.
The first thought that flashed through his mind was if he was hallucinating again because he missed her so much.
How could Jing Haohao possibly appear in this business circle?
So, he walked over, never taking his eyes off what he thought he saw. He swung his gaze in her direction subtly and stared fleetingly at her.
His glance was swift, leaving no trace of detection, yet it fell unwaveringly upon her face. That fleeting glance, so swift, like a startled bird, had thrown his heart into disarray.
He found himself rooted to the spot, surprised at his own reaction and the feeling of his heart thudding.
For the first time in his life, he was so nervous that it took all his effort just to turn his body towards her.
The lovely face he’d dreamed of so often, as if in slow motion, gradually imprinted itself onto his eyes, bit by bit.
She hadn’t changed; her eyes were as pure and clean as before. She was wearing a blue dress that accentuated her fair, delicate skin. The faint smile on her face was heart-stirring.
Liang Chen’s breath halted, could it be that he missed her so much that he was deluding himself?
With that thought, Liang Chen lifted his hand, clenched it into a fist forcefully, until he felt a sharp pain in his palm, and then came back to his senses.
Oh God… This isn’t a dream, Jing Haohao really is right before his eyes!
Liang Chen felt his body trembling slightly. He desperately tried to maintain his usual proud and cold demeanor, never taking his gaze off Jing Haohao, he slowly walked towards her, step by step.
Jing Haohao stood rooted to the spot, watching Liang Chen drawing ever closer, close enough to smell his faint fragrance. An unspoken emotion overwhelmed her heart, making her chest feel unusually hot.
Liang Chen’s steps finally halted half a step away from Jing Haohao.
He was looking down at Jing Haohao’s eyes.
His beautiful gaze was deep black, shimmering in a splendid light, with a captivating charm.
Jing Haohao’s body was trembling. She had imagined meeting Liang Chen face to face again, but she never thought the day would arrive so unexpectedly.
With all her strength, she propped herself against the back of a nearby chair, trying to regain her composure.
It was then that she realized that the document she had printed yesterday mentioned that the Haixin Company wanted to secure a deal with the Jiangshan Group.
Because the deal involved the Jiangshan Group, she had paid special attention, but she never thought that the dinner she had unwittingly attended tonight would be related to this project.
Mr. Chen stood beside Jing Haohao. Seeing that she had been silent for a long time, afraid that she might offend their important client, he couldn’t help but cough lightly and said: “Mr. Liang, this is our secretary assistant, Jing Haohao.”
After he finished, Mr. Chen immediately turned his head and gave Jing Haohao a meaningful look.
Jing Haohao quickly regained her composure, her palms now wet with nervous sweat, she smiled lightly at Liang Chen and said, “Nice to meet you, Mr. Liang.”
