Chapter 291: Chapter 291: No Need to Fuss Over It
Seeing him like this, Liu Jiaxin could only helplessly sigh.
Since he had already said he didn’t need help, she couldn’t say anything more about it.
"Alright, alright, no matter what, you must take good care of yourself. Don’t let anything happen to you, and that person we saw earlier doesn’t seem like a pushover," she said.
"Just the other day, Old Chen told me about some problems, and it’s lucky you dealt with them. Otherwise, who knows what they would have done to you."
"I’ve been busy these days, you haven’t come to see me, and you haven’t come to check on me."
Hearing this, Liu Zheng embraced her tightly.
"Ah, listen to you. You know what’s been going on, right? I’ve been tied up with a lot of things, and they’ve been troubling me non-stop. That’s why I’ve had no free time," he said.
"We’re together now, aren’t we? Honestly, I’ve really missed you these last few days; I just haven’t had the time."
"Have you really missed me, or are you just saying that?"
Liu Jiaxin pouted and asked.
"Of course, I’ve really missed you. How could I possibly lie to you?" he replied.
After hearing this, Liu Jiaxin felt genuinely happy inside.
She smiled and nodded. "Good, good, that’s great."
"Haven’t you eaten yet so late?"
"I did, but I’m hungry again. Otherwise, how could I have run into them?"
He quickly resumed his eating.
It had indeed been a long time since he had eaten lunch.
He was truly hungry, otherwise, he wouldn’t have gone for these snacks.
Next to him, Liu Jiaxin quietly sat accompanying him.
In the dim light, watching him, she couldn’t help but think back to the person from her past.
She had never imagined she would meet someone like him.
But she understood these were two different people, and she couldn’t mix them up. There were many aspects of Liu Zheng that she liked very much, and she enjoyed their harmonious and pleasant relationship.
Regardless, she would cherish the previous connection.
No matter what, she would treasure every minute and every second she spent with Liu Zheng.
And then, she suddenly said,
"In a few days, I might need to make a trip to the city. Do you want to come with me?"
After hearing this, Liu Zheng was a bit puzzled and wondered why she needed to go to the city.
"Of course, it’s no problem. I shouldn’t be too busy these days, so I should be free. As long as I’m available, I can accompany you anywhere you need to go," he replied.
This was mainly because the issues with Li Yanling had been settled, so there was nothing to worry about anymore.
Seeing that Liu Zheng agreed without hesitation made Liu Jiaxin very happy.
It seemed like he would agree to almost anything she asked quickly.
However, the upcoming journey might entail some problems and trouble.
She had to make the trip because there were indeed problems there.
"There are indeed some issues there, and I don’t want to go alone, so if possible, I’d like you to come with me."
"Alright, no problem. It’s already late, and I’ve finished eating. We better rest soon," he suggested.
"You must have missed me a lot these days."
Having said that, Liu Zheng’s hands began to wander.
Liu Jiaxin was originally preoccupied with the difficulties and problems she faced, her brow furrowing deeply.
Facing such issues, she felt somewhat helpless and didn’t know how to resolve them.
She hadn’t anticipated Liu Zheng to suddenly become so playful.
It snapped her out of her thoughts.
Usually, if he acted this way, she might have responded by now, but today was completely different.
This certainly surprised the person before her.
He had no idea what was troubling her.
On closer observation, her complexion was genuinely pale, as if she had thought of something extremely troubling.
So Liu Zheng quickly asked with concern,
"What’s happened? You seem distracted."
There must have been something serious for her to look like that.
After hearing this, the person in front of him hesitated, unsure of how to reveal it.
At that moment, her feelings were indeed complex.
Then Liu Zheng spoke again,
"Alright, alright, you can tell me anything. If something is making you unhappy, tell me, and I will be there for you. I hope you can be happier."
"But if you feel it’s tough to talk about, it’s okay not to tell me. I just hope you can forget all these worries."
After he spoke these words, how could Liu Jiaxin keep anything from him?
So she merely sighed lightly and said,
"Actually, I have a small establishment here, but my main business is elsewhere. The reason I chose to come here initially was that I lived here with him for a while, which was a very happy time for me."
"But there are indeed some issues with my business elsewhere, and they’re quite troubling. I don’t know how to fix them."
"What kind of problems exactly? If possible, I could help you sort them out," he offered.
"If I can be of help, I hope I can assist you well."
After serious consideration, the woman in front of him finally spoke up.
"There are problems with the internal management staff."
Upon hearing this, Liu Zheng immediately understood what was going on.
In essence, there was a traitor.
Honestly, such problems are indeed difficult to solve.
To get to the bottom of it could be very challenging.
By this point, the culprit was likely well-concealed.
If a thorough investigation were conducted publicly, it might dishearten the other employees.
But being too discreet in the investigation could delay progress significantly.
No matter how one approached it, it didn’t seem favorable.
So the person in question was genuinely distressed, clueless about what to do next.
And Liu Zheng could understand her dilemma.
