"Xiao Ye …"

Zhou Zijin's hand gently rested on my face, and I subconsciously took a step back.

Tears fell onto my hands, and I realized that remembering the past could easily make me cry.

Sensing my resistance, Zhou Zijin awkwardly retracted his hand.

"I'm fine …"

I turned my face away.

Those so-called past, in fact, has never had a past with me.

The pain of losing Lin Mu, was still tormenting me up until now.

"Are you thinking about Lin Mu?"

He looked at me and said calmly.

I nodded slightly. This was no longer a secret.

"Xiao Ye, let me ask you, if one day you find out that Lin Mu is still alive and well in this world …"

"Impossible!" I answered without thinking.

There can't be two people who look the same in this world, and I saw Lin Mu's ashes with my own eyes.

"Why is it impossible? Maybe he was still alive? When he threw himself into the water, the body that he brought out would no longer be the same. How can you be so sure that the corpse was Lin Mu? "

I looked at Zhou Zijin and shook my head. He was a lot older than me, but he was even more unrealistic than me.

"Zi Jin, I don't want to talk about this anymore."

As I said that, I pushed my Crab Bag to the side. Remembering my unhappy past, even when the food was brought to my mouth, I didn't have the strength to continue talking.

He didn't say anything. He just looked at me.

After a while, Jiang Yu faxed the contract to me and I passed the contract to Zhou Zijin.

"Since you chose to believe him, then you don't need to show me these things. I believe you. "

He seemed to have forgotten about his disagreement with Jiang Yu, which surprised me a little.

I set aside the contract Jiang Yu passed over to me, when Zhou Zijin suddenly opened his mouth and said, "I'm very curious, how did you meet him?"

I leaned back in my chair, half-closed my eyes, and said casually, "I did him a small favor. He was very grateful to me, so he worked under me."

I didn't lie. I simply simplified the process.

As for how to explain it, that was Zhou Zijin's problem.

"So that's how it is …" Zhou Zijin smiled slightly, picked up the document I placed at the side and said: "From this document, it seems that he is quite a talented person, to be able to scheme over such matters at such a young age, without a few years of experience, it would be difficult to achieve such a feat …"

After all, no matter what, Jiang Yu was someone I had personally picked myself.

But for some reason, I keep having the feeling that Zhou Zijin's words contained some hidden meaning. He sounded as if he was praising Jiang Yu, but it seemed more like he was expressing something else …

"Although this Jiang Yu is good, he still has his shortcomings." Zhou Zijin paused as he spoke.

"He … "Not steady enough …"

I nodded in agreement.

In the period of time he had interacted with Jiang Yu, Jiang Yu was indeed a talented person, and seemed to be proficient in every aspect.

But perhaps it was because I had just met him, and for a long time he had shown me a polite estrangement, a feeling that was the easiest to beguile.

However, he seemed to have revealed his true colors recently …

Perhaps it was because he had been with me for so long that he began to show me the emotions and sorrows that a normal man should have, and the real him was far from what I had imagined him to be.

Of course, I won't say this in front of Zhou Zijin, but what I need is only his bed companion.

Zhou Zijin looked at me as his eyes moved, the expression on his face was unfathomable.

Just then, Tang Yue walked in with a cup of coffee. Seeing that the atmosphere between the two of us was a little weird, he couldn't help but interrupt.

"Director Zhou, why did you have the leisure to come over and drink coffee with us?"

When Zhou Zijin saw Tang Yue, he relaxed a bit. Tang Yue sat down beside me and took out a few reports.

"Boss, look, this is Xiaojiang's recent achievements in our company. Don't say it, he is not only good-looking, but also capable at doing things …" "Tsk tsk tsk tsk …"

As Tang Yue spoke, he swept his eyes across my face with an ambiguous gaze. Since Zhou Zijin wasn't an idiot, he naturally saw through the hidden meaning behind Tang Yue's words.

Actually, not only Tang Yue, anyone with eyes in the company can see that the intimate relationship between Jiang Yu and I was only because I did not announce it to the public.

Hearing Tang Yue's words, Zhou Zijin's face immediately became gloomy.

After Tang Yue put down the document, he chatted with us for a while before he walked out of my office.

After she left, Zhou Zijin's expression became even uglier. I know what Zhou Zijin cares about, but I have no way to explain this.

It's not that I've never thought about it, but when I tell Zhou Zijin everything, I just couldn't bring myself to say it out loud.

Because that person was Zhou Zijin, not the other garden.

If it was anyone else, I could naturally and boldly tell him about my relationship with Jiang Yu.

But it was not good for Zhou Zijin.

Because I had once admired him, I hoped that in his eyes, I would always be the best.

It was a complicated feeling, and logically speaking, it was something I didn't know he had before he got married. But after I knew he was married, all my feelings evaporated.

But even so, it didn't change the way I wanted him to think I was good.

"What is your relationship with Jiang Yu?"

I know I can't lie anymore.

"Is it important?"

I lowered my eyes, afraid to meet his.

What do I say?

That there's no love between Jiang Yu and me, just sex?

Or directly tell him that Jiang Yu and I are simple bedmates?

But no matter what explanation it was, it all seemed so dirty and disgusting to me.

"It's important."

The word was loud and clear, and I had no room to refuse.

"I …"

It was as if his words were stuck in his throat, making it hard for him to say anything.

"I am no longer the Xiao Ye you first met. I am a normal woman … Years... My days were muddled and chaotic. "

Zhou Zijin was not stupid, he would definitely be able to hear me say that.

"Zi Jin, can you stop asking, please? I don't think the truth is what you want to hear... I am no longer the same as you used to know. You won't want to understand me in depth now. "

I don't even dare to look at his face.

"Xiao Ye, no matter how things change, you will always be the Xiao Ye in my heart."

His tone was complicated when he said it, and I didn't know if it was a feeling of heartache or something else.
