3577 Untitled
This was because Dong Yujie had no idea what happened to Jiang Huaizhou during this past year.
She didn’t have a single clue.
Did Jiang Huaizhou become a totally different person during this time?
Of course, Dong Yujie didn’t think that Jiang Huaizhou’s changes were bad.
!!
Jiang Huaizhou’s current state of being was quite good. He seemed very energetic and happy.
He seemed to have forgotten his past trauma.
Actually, Dong Yujie didn’t know that Jiang Huaizhou remembered well of his past trauma.
Obviously, he would remember those major events for the rest of his life.
How could he forget?
He was the same as Dong Yujie. He could only pretend not to care about those things. He couldn’t actually forget about those things.
During this past year, Jiang Huaizhou had to force himself to become a civilized person for the sake of his business.
Not only did he have to be sleek, but he also needed to be shameless.
If not, he wouldn’t have been able to attract any business opportunities for his company.
However, because of this, he had to interact with different kinds of people.
Jiang Huaizhou had indeed become more cheerful.
He had become smarter and more cunning.
With Dong Yujie’s knowledge and skills, she was no match against Jiang Huaizhou.
“It’s nothing. It’s good to see you like this.” Dong Yujie said with a smile.
She sat on the sofa and said, “Just do your work. You don’t have to worry about me. I will just play with my phone.”
“If I insist that you stay, am I being selfish?” Jiang Huaizhou said, “You have nothing to do here and you can’t rest well here.”
“Should I leave then?” Dong Yujie asked.
Jiang Huaizhou responded, “…I would rather you stay.”
Dong Yujie smiled and said, “However, I did develop the habit of taking a nap in the afternoon. Can I rest for a while on your sofa?”
“Sure. Not a problem.” Jiang Huaizhou said immediately.
Dong Yujie sent Mrs. Dong a WeChat and told her that she was officially in a relationship with Jiang Huaizhou.
Obviously, Mrs. Dong was happy.
Dong Yujie just felt hesitant to tell Mr. Jiang.
After all, Mr. Jiang had always objected to her and Jiang Huaizhou’s relationship.
Actually, the matter involving Lu Qiyuan was not the only reason why Dong Yujie had left.
The other reason was that Mr. Jiang was always on guard against her.
Since she returned, she was thinking about whether she should visit Mr. Jiang.
And now that this relationship with Jiang Huaizhou happened, it made it even more difficult for her to see Mr. Jiang.
Jiang Huaizhou saw that Dong Yujie looked like in a dilemma. She seemed to have something to say but couldn’t say anything. Jiang Huaizhou then asked, “What’s wrong? What’s troubling you?”
“Am I disturbing you from work?” Dong Yujie immediately asked.
“Of course not.” Jiang Huaizhou said, “I just wanted to look at you from time to time.”
“What’s wrong? Tell me?” Jiang Huaizhou asked, “You have been struggling by yourself for a while now. Look, I have free time now.”
“Plus, even if I am busy, I do have the time to listen to your problems.”
“I am just struggling to decide if I should visit dad.” Dong Yujie said.
Jiang Huaizhou thought that it was right for Dong Yujie to refer to Mr. Jiang as his dad.
Even if Mr. Jiang and Mrs. Dong had gotten a divorce…
Dong Yujie would still be calling Mr. Jiang ‘dad’ the moment she got married to Jiang Huaizhou.
And so, she wouldn’t need to change this term of address. This was good.
“He was always against us being in a relationship. If I visit him, we can’t keep our relationship a secret, right?” Dong Yujie said.
“I don’t know how to face him or even how to tell him…” Dong Yujie lowered her head. Her heart felt heavy. It felt as though a huge rock was on her shoulder.
“Let’s go back and eat with mom today.” Jiang Huaizhou said.
“We will visit dad tomorrow.” Jiang Huaizhou said, “I will give him a call tomorrow and let him know beforehand.”
“Dad shouldn’t find our relationship repulsive, but I am not sure if he will support this. At least he feels bad for what he had done to you. He didn’t say no when mom wanted a divorce and he agreed right away.”
“He did not say anything but he knew what this divorce signified. This divorce made way for our relationship. If they did not get a divorce, we wouldn’t be able to be in a relationship. He knew that and chose to get a divorce. I think he secretly supports our relationship.”
“If not, he could insist on not getting the divorce.”
“While you were gone and living by yourself this past year, dad felt bad. He thought that you had left because of him. He thought that it was his attitude that had forced you away.”
“I know that you didn’t like us being appreciative of you.” Jiang Huaizhou said, “But I think it’s better if dad feels thankful to you.”
“You saved me. He felt bad about this. He felt grateful as well. In addition, you left because of him.”
“I didn’t leave because of him.” Dong Yujie paused and immediately corrected herself, “At least this was not the main reason.”
“I know.” Jiang Huaizhou smiled and said, “However, dad is stubborn. You know that. He would rather take responsibility for everything. He preferred taking the responsibility regardless of what had happened.”
...
“And so, even if you told him, he won’t believe you.” Jiang Huaizhou said.
“I don’t think you need to explain to him. Just let it be. You can give him a hint. Even if he doesn’t feel happy about it, he won’t dare to say anything.”
“Actually, I am not praying that he would support us sincerely. As long as he doesn’t object to our relationship, it’s fine.” Jiang Huaizhou said.
“In addition to that, he might not be against us being together.” Jiang Huaizhou smiled and said, “Just go home with me tomorrow and let me handle this.”
Anyway, they needed to face this eventually.
Dong Yujie nodded and said, “Alright.”
However, after this dilemma was solved, Dong Yujie started feeling nervous about meeting Mr. Jiang.
During this past year in the ancient city, she didn’t have much to worry about. She felt emotionally and physically happy.
But the moment she came back, she had a few additional things to worry about.
Jiang Huaizhou was busy this afternoon.
However, all of the employees felt embarrassed to enter the office because they knew that Dong Yujie was there.
...
If they needed Jiang Huaizhou for something, they just contacted him through the messaging app.
This solved the issue.
When Dong Yujie saw that no one was coming into the office, she took a nap.
Finally, Jiang Huaizhou was done with work and went home with Dong Yujie.
Jiang Huaizhou drove while Dong Yujie sat in the passenger seat.
Jiang Huaizhou was very satisfied with this. He would occasionally turn and look over at Dong Yujie.
As a result, Dong Yujie couldn’t help but ask, “What are you looking at?”
“I am looking at the person in my passenger seat.” Jiang Huaizhou smiled and said, “The seat has been emptied for over a year. The master of this seat has finally returned.”
He was basically hinting that no one has sat in this passenger seat.
Dong Yujie raised her brow and asked, “Qu Mengyu never sat in this seat before?”
Honestly, Dong Yujie was surprised.
If Jiang Huaizhou had refused to let anyone take this seat, it’s possible that no one had sat there for the past year.
However, Qu Mengyu wouldn’t stop pursuing Jiang Huaizhou. Even if Jiang Huaizhou said no, would she listen to him?
“She has never sat there before.” Jiang Huaizhou said, “Although her father is my client, I have never allowed her to sit in my car.”
