The sweetheart of a strong president

Chapter 18: Confession Rejected

“The initiative is yours.”

This means you can agree or refuse.

"If you were me, what would you choose?"

"As long as you don't hate me and don't have anyone else in your heart, you can try to get along with me."

Every word Mr. Lin answered made sense, but Su Wan was very clear-headed and doubted Mr. Lin's sincerity. She even felt that he didn't even trust her.

Is there any hidden reason why he suddenly treats her like this? Is there a possibility that he is using her as a shield to put on a show for others, like Qiao Qiao?

He is a meticulous person who acts flawlessly. To be able to sit in the position of president of the group, his methods must be incomparable to those of ordinary people. This is not something that she, a science worker, can understand. She has made up her mind.

"Mr. Lin, can we just be ordinary friends?"

This is her choice.

Lin Zihan's heart sank suddenly, as if he had fallen to the bottom of a valley.

Although he had prepared himself mentally, he felt completely different when he heard it with his own ears.

Judging from the few times he and she had spent time together, she didn't hate him. There was only one possible reason for her rejection: she had someone in her heart.

If this is the case, then it makes sense for her to keep her distance from Sun Xiao. Otherwise, she would have no reason to reject these outstanding men.

If she has feelings for someone else, their love must be stronger than gold.

Thinking of this, he was no longer so confident.

"Can you give me a reason?" He wanted to know who that person was?

“Is this necessary?”

"That's right." He was a little dazed.

"Alright, the reason is very simple, we are not a good match. You are of a certain status and position; and I am the real-life Cinderella. Princes and Cinderella only exist in books, and I don't want to be abused by you thousands of times in my short life."

"What kind of excuse is that? If I were the prince and I happened to fall in love with Cinderella, wouldn't it be very painful? Don't you consider the prince's feelings?"

"There are so many people in the world who deserve sympathy. How can I consider them all? Besides, the women around you, President Lin, are lined up in a long queue. You still need me to consider them? How hypocritical!"

"Do you really miss me that much?"

"It's not that I look at you, but at people like you."

She paused for a moment and continued, "I either don't fall in love or find someone who only I can abuse. People like you should be left to the goddesses favored by God!"

"You are my goddess."

"Come on, big boss, you are not a kid anymore, please stop being so naive, and don't think that I am a little girl that is easy to fool. Save yourself the worry. Thank you for taking care of me these two days! I need to rest now, please do as you please, Mr. Lin."

She took the medicine and fell asleep quickly under the effect of the medicine.

Mr. Lin stood on the spacious balcony. The cool night breeze blew away his day's fatigue, but it could not blow away the gloom in his heart.

The city lights flicker in the distance, as if telling the prosperity and loneliness of each city.

His eyes passed through the dense lights, as if looking for a trace of warmth that belonged to him.

I thought today's confession would be a beautiful turning point in my life, but I didn't expect to be rejected.

That unexpected loss was like a meteor suddenly falling in the night sky, shattering the hope he had carefully maintained.

He sighed softly, his heart filled with mixed emotions.

Should he hold on or let go? This relationship made him feel more confused than ever before.

He is used to business competition, but cannot learn emotional offense and defense.

Mr. Lin took a deep breath and put his worries aside for the time being.

You cannot be defeated by this temporary predicament. The road ahead is still long and there are still many opportunities.

What he needs is to refresh his mood and face tomorrow's challenges with a better attitude.

It was getting late at night and getting colder, so he calmed himself down and went into the house.

He sat down beside Su Wan's bed, looked at her peaceful sleeping face, a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he stood up, kissed her forehead lightly, and lay down on the bed with his clothes on.

After the annual meeting, the business volume of Shangzhi Group's subsidiaries decreased significantly. Except for a part of the employees who stayed on duty, the rest took holidays and went home to celebrate the New Year.

Su Wan applied to stay on the job, firstly so that she could make up for the work she had missed during her illness, and secondly because she really had nowhere to go, and instead of staying alone, she might as well find something to do.

On New Year’s Eve, Su Wan was working on data in the laboratory.

Just after midnight, WeChat message reminders kept ringing. When she opened her phone, they were all New Year greetings. She replied to them one by one.

Among them is Lin Zihan's:

"Happy New Year to the hard-working Su workers!" he said in a normal tone.

"Happy New Year, Captain Shangzhi!" She did the same.

Lin Zihan's family of three were sitting on the sofa, and Lin's father and mother were watching the Spring Festival Gala.

Although this elderly couple are over 70 years old, they still maintain a good figure and demeanor.

The old man is tall and strong, with silver hair, but he is still in good spirits.

His eyes were as sharp as a knife, revealing a sense of dominance and wisdom.

The old lady's hair was also silver-white and looked neat and tidy after being carefully groomed.

She has bright eyes, a high nose, plump lips and a warm smile.

Lin Zihan was holding his cell phone, his face was livid just now, but when he saw Su Wan's New Year's greetings, the ice on his face melted.

"Dad, Mom, I have to go out for a while."

Mr. Lin and his family were having New Year's Eve dinner at the hotel tonight. He secretly ordered a midnight set meal as he was going to have a reunion dinner with Su Wan.

After not seeing her for so many days, he missed her all the time. Today was a special day and also an opportunity.

They hadn't had any contact since they separated from Su Wan in the hospital, and it had been almost twenty days.

These days, whenever he stops working, he will check the central surveillance to see her to ease his homesickness.

At the same time, he also learned about her approximate work schedule and interpersonal relationships in the company.

He found that the people closest to her were a few core members such as Brother Liu Hao, Chen Xinmeng, and the evil-minded Sun Xiao.

Mr. Lin also knew that Su Wan was on duty tonight, so he decided to meet her on the first day of the new year.

When Lin Zihan left the house, the old couple looked at each other and said in unison:

“What’s wrong with this kid?”

What could happen during the New Year?

"I vaguely feel that something is wrong with this child recently," said Lin's mother. "Sometimes I find him standing on the balcony in a daze. Could it be that something happened at the company?"

"What can happen to the company? Don't I still have you?"

Shangzhi is a family business. Its predecessor was machinery manufacturing, which was created by Father Lin.

He retired from the position of President of Shangzhi. He personally holds 50% of Shangzhi's shares, Lin Zihan holds 20%, and the rest is distributed among some small shareholders.

Father Lin has been working in Shangzhi for his entire life. He has trained so many people. How could he not know if there was any disturbance in the company?
