Chapter 595 - 595 596 Heart-to-Heart (25)_1
?Chapter 595: Chapter 596: Heart-to-Heart (25)_1 Chapter 595: Chapter 596: Heart-to-Heart (25)_1 She couldn’t help but shift her position slightly before turning her head to gaze out of the window. In an attempt to divert Liang Chen’s gaze from her face, she raised her hand and pointed at a location, saying, “Isn’t that your company?”
Liang Chen followed Jing Haohao’s point and looked over. The neon sign with the words “Jiangshan Group” was particularly eye-catching in the night.
Jing Haohao felt like she’s seen these four characters somewhere. She tilted her head, contemplated for a moment, then turned to ask, “The ‘Jiangshan Group’ sign… could it be written in your handwriting?”
“Yes,” Liang Chen responded, “I wrote it on paper, and they traced it. So, it can be considered my handwriting.”
Jing Haohao turned her head and stared at the four characters of “Jiangshan Group”. She hooked her lips and said, “It’s quite handsome.”
Liang Chen, amused by Jing Haohao’s comment, chuckled lightly.
Suddenly, Jing Haohao turned to ask, “I heard that you were based in Beijing before. Why did you suddenly decide to come back to Jiangshan City?”
“My father has deep roots in Beijing. At that time, he wanted me to study abroad. I didn’t want to go but wanted to start a business. However, he wanted to arrange everything for me in Beijing. I didn’t like that feeling, so I ran away to Jiangshan. This is my hometown, and it’s also relatively close to Beijing.”
“But Beijing is the capital. Your prospects might be better if you were there. Don’t you regret it?”
“I don’t regret it.” Liang Chen paused, his gaze locked on Jing Haohao’s eyes, and said, “On the contrary, I’m glad I came back to Jiangshan City.”
“Why?”
Liang Chen’s gaze faltered. His handsome face turned vague in that moment, and after a long while, he finally said, “Because here, I met the person I wanted to meet the most.”
In fact, he wanted to say that it was because he met her here.
But, he felt presumptuous saying that. After all, he and she no longer had any relationship.
So, he used a more euphemistic phrase.
If possible, I would rather have grown up here. Perhaps in that way… I could have met you earlier, and maybe you and Shen Liangnian would not have started anything, and you and I… might have had a different outcome…
The person he wanted to meet the most, is that the person he likes?
A sour feeling surfaced in Jing Haohao’s heart. She felt a bit sad, yet she forced a smile and asked, “Is that person the one you like?”
Liang Chen stared into Jing Haohao’s eyes and nodded.
All this time being with Liang Chen, she had never seen him show any interest in any woman, and all the gossip news reported him as someone who led a clean life.
Who was that person?
If it were in the past, Jing Haohao would not care who Liang Chen liked. But now, she longed to know.
So, she bit the corner of her lips, her voice held a bitterness she didn’t even notice, “Who’s that person? Doesn’t she live in Jiangshan City?”
That person is you… and you’re right before me.
Though it was such a simple line, Liang Chen didn’t have the courage to say it. He was afraid that by his sudden confession, the distance between them that had just narrowed would vanish.
Before, Liang Chen always thought that he was invincible. But when he fell in love with someone, he discovered that he was a coward in front of the person he loved.
