"This ……"
"I just admire her and have no other thoughts." Zhao Qingheng explained in order to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings. He looked at Xia Ning more and more straightforwardly." I wonder if Miss Xia will give me this face?"
Xia Ning would definitely not be able to reject him in public.
After leaving the door, Xia Ning said," I have a car myself. Thank you for your kindness."
Zhao Qinghen grabbed her wrist and said with a serious expression," Do we have to see each other like this?" "You even want to separate me from me for such a small matter?"
"It's necessary." Xia Ning broke free from his hand. It wasn't like the delicate flowers in the greenhouse needed to be carefully protected. Moreover, her car was nearby, so it was better to stay away from him.
She couldn't afford to offend him, could she still not?
"Let's get back together."
These words were like a deep-water bomb, causing waves to surge in Xia Ning heart. He could not calm down for a long time. She turned around and looked straight into his eyes, her voice trembling." Why do you want to get back together with me?"
"The team likes you very much."
Xia Ning stared at him for a long time, but he couldn't find the love in his eyes. The blood all over his body cooled down.
So it was just a group that liked it. She thought... Wasn't this something she should have known earlier? Just like four years ago, he didn't make any progress.
"Just because the team likes it?"
"What else?" Zhao Qinghen frowned slightly, feeling that something was off, especially when her heart fell and felt tingling.
His words sounded like Xia Ning mocking her, like the clown who had hoped for his love.
She was filled with emotions and didn't show it in front of Zhao Qinghen. She smiled sarcastically and said," Sorry, you can find someone you like. We' re not suitable." "I don't want to get back together."
Zhao Qinghen was shocked, but he was rejected. Didn't Xia Ning like him the most before? She had thought that she would definitely agree to his request.
In the end, what link had gone wrong?
"If there's nothing else, I' ll leave first." Xia Ning's attitude towards him was even colder, so he turned around and left. He seemed to have expected that he would catch her. He took a step to avoid her and then walked faster and faster.
Zhao Qinghen helplessly looked at her as she walked further and further away, her eyes darkened. Even if she was unwilling, she could only let her go.
###Chapter20
Xia Ning went all the way to the highway, completely contradicting the hotel. She didn't want to go back now. She just wanted to indulge herself.
There were so many things in her heart that it made her feel uncomfortable and her body seemed to explode.
The breeze on the road gave her a refreshing feeling, and the pain in her brain faded. She even wanted to step on the accelerator to the end to experience the extreme pleasure and freedom.
The last strand of rational thought pulled Xia Ning back from the edge of madness. She finally listened to the car near a park with a high bridge beside it. She decided to go for a walk.
Hopefully, wind energy would take away her worries.
During the university period, Zhao Qinghen was like a prince on campus. She had overestimated her ability to pursue him.
He played basketball very well, so she tried to be the first person to deliver water to him every time he played the ball. She squeezed her head and rushed in front of everyone. But at that time, Zhao Qinghen didn't even glance at him and walked forward without looking at him.
A mouthful of hot blood condensed into ice. After Xia Ning little disappointment, he gathered his spirits and continued to curry favor with Zhao Qinghen.
Love was easy and the library confessed. Xia Ning could be said to have gone through great pains. At that time, Zhao Qingheng didn't agree or refuse. He had no girlfriend by his side. She stubbornly believed that as long as she persisted, she would have a chance.
He persisted for four years.
Xia Ning still remembered that a few days before graduation, her roommate had dragged her out for dinner. She was drunk and complained with a bottle of wine in her arms." I've been chasing for four years, and I' ve almost covered an iceberg. The Zhao family didn't even make a sound, and it's been four years."
A roommate who was engaged to give birth to a child patted her shoulder and comforted her," If you want to open something up, there's no herb in the world. Why do you need to love a single flower?"
"But I really want that flower." Thinking of his deep feelings for the past four years Xia Ning he couldn't help but choke. Why was Zhao Qinghen not interested in her?
In the end, her roommates couldn't bear to see her in such pain. They took turns to teach her," It's hard to find a toad with three legs. Men with two legs run everywhere."
At that time, her love for Zhao Qinghen was strong. How could she hear such words? As a result, she pretended to be crazy and went downstairs to the boys' dormitory to block Zhao Qing Hen." I like you. If you do n' t agree today, you have to agree."
She had thought it through. If he didn't agree, she would take the liberty of forcing him to take responsibility. However Xia Ning before he could find a chance, Zhao Qinghen had already bypassed her and ruthlessly rejected her.
"I'm not interested in you. Do n' t be sentimental."
Xia Ning woke up from her drunken stupor. In Zhao Qinghen's eyes, all she did was act on her own. Under that cold gaze, she felt her heart c***k.
Crack! c***k! c***k!
With such a sound, the cracks grew bigger and bigger. Her heart was dripping with blood, shattering to the ground.
After being rejected mercilessly, no matter how thick-skinned Xia Ning was, she was too embarrassed to pester him. After knowing that all these years of her secret love was doomed to fail, she left before graduation.
……
The scenes at the graduation party surfaced in his mind. Even now, he still felt a dull pain in his heart.
The cold wind blew past, and his mind Xia Ning stirred. He pulled himself out of his sorrow. Now that he thought about what had happened at that time, all he could do was sigh with admiration.
She admired her courage when she was young and ignorant. Now, she didn't dare to cling to Zhao Qing Hen like before. She had truly praised him and trampled on him once more. Once again, she was truly afraid.
###Chapter21
Ever since that incident, it might have been because Zhao Qinghen was busy, or it might have been because he had not come to find Xia Ning again. During the first few days, Xia Ning was still curious about the reason. Later, because of his busy work, he had forgotten about it. It was already a month later.
Her first play was about to be broadcast. As the female lead, she naturally had to attend the broadcast conference. However, what he did not expect was that Zhao Qinghen would also appear. Usually, such an investor would not appear. Even if it appeared, it would be a representative of the company. There had never been a precedent for the president, so the moment Zhao Qinghen appeared, it was like an angel with a halo. The cameras on the scene all turned to him.
"I'm sorry, the President just came here to buy Jia Heng Film and Television. It's just a coincidence that the TV series was released. Please excuse me. Our President still has something to do." As soon as Assistant Qiao finished speaking, several bodyguards escorted Zhao Qinghen out of the crowd and got into the car.
Remembering that they knew they couldn't ask anything, they decided to let Qing Hen go.
Xia Ning looked at the familiar and unfamiliar back. It was mixed. What was funny was that she thought that Zhao Qingheng had come to see her.
The press conference was held very smoothly because Zhao Qingheng happened to pass by. With some marketing numbers and rhythm, the press conference became even more popular. According to the current trend, only if there was no serious black material, she would be able to get it.
At the end of the press conference, there was a celebration for Yan. As the female lead, she had no choice but to go. Xia Ning was surprised that Zhao Qinghen was also there. Don't think too much. It wo n' t be you. Maybe they're here to discuss business. Xia Ning thought so, but she was still looking forward to it. She knew that it was impossible for them. She knew that they couldn't go back. She had already sworn that she would n' t think about it, but love was there. Even though she had deliberately avoided it and pretended that it didn't exist, it was still there.
There were quite a number of people at the banquet. The celebration and press conference was just an excuse. It was only true that they had come here to expand their network. Therefore, apart from the crew, there were also quite a few people from outside and Xia Ning did not know each other.
As soon as Xia Ning entered, Li Fang dragged them to their filming location, with Zhao Qinghen beside them.
"Let's say hello to the crew first. I' ll bring you to meet some people in a while. It will help you in the future."
Li Fang liked Xia Ning very much, but this kind of liking was different from that kind of liking. Li Fang simply felt that the Xia Ning was very good. Not only was he dedicated to his work, but his acting skills were not bad. The point was that his three views were very good. He was a kind person, not someone who went to lay down rules just to get a higher position.
If she liked someone, she couldn't help but want to give her all her good things, so Li Fang treated Xia Ning very well. She could think of anything good.
"Yes, yes. Thank you, Director Li." Xia Ning was very grateful that she had come to meet those people.
Xia Ning had just walked into the small circle where the film crew was located when Gao Shanshan suddenly appeared in front of Xia Ning. Xia Ning was shocked.
"I really didn't help you when I was on set. "I'm sorry, I apologize to you. I' m definitely not doing that anymore." Gao Shanshan was filled with regret as he held two drinks in his hand.
"Huh?" Gao Shanshan suddenly had a big change in personality, Xia Ning was a little out of habit.
"Here's a toast to you. I' m sorry about the facts." Gao Shanshan handed a drink to Xia Ning.
Xia Ning originally wanted to refuse, but Gao Shanshan didn't give her a chance. She had just received it when Gao Shanshan ran to Zhao Qinghen. She could n' t even interrupt.
"President Zhao, this is my honor. Please take good care of me in the future." As Gao Shanshan said that, he ran a flirtatious glance towards Zhao Qinghen and passed the wine to Zhao Qinghen.
Although Qing Hen did not know what Gao Shanshan wanted to do, he still accepted the edict.
Gao Shanshan went to grab a glass of red wine and said," President Zhao will be driving later, so he can't drink. Xia Ning you should n' t drink too? "That's why I' ve brought a drink for all of you. In order to show my respect, I'm going to do it first. You can do whatever you want." As Gao Shanshan said that, he was speechless.
