After Mr. Xiang divorced, the president regretted it
Chapter 104: The Rift Is Hard to Heal
In the luxurious box, the crystal chandelier emitted a soft light, reflecting on the exquisite but cold dishes on the table, making it even more lonely. Yan Jin sat alone at the table, and her delicate makeup could not hide her lonely look. The hasty and apology of Xiang Yu when he left lingered in her mind, like a thin needle, piercing her heart.
"Boss Yan, are you okay?" Assistant Chen asked worriedly. She had followed Yan Jin for many years and had never seen her look so lost.
Yan Jin shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I'm fine, it's just..."
"Just what?" Assistant Chen pressed. She knew Yan Jin too well. The look on Yan Jin's face as if hesitating to speak clearly showed that he was hiding something on his mind.
"I just think it's a little ridiculous." Yan Jin said self-deprecatingly, "Maybe what he said is true, maybe he really realizes my importance, but how long can all this last?"
Assistant Chen looked at Yan Jin with heartache. She had always known Yan Jin's emotional forbearance and dedication, and she also knew that deep in her heart she still longed to be loved and cherished.
"Mr. Yan, don't forget who you are. You are the helmsman of Yan Group and a person that countless people look up to. You deserve better and don't deserve to be sad for him again and again." Assistant Chen consoled softly, with a hint of regret in his tone.
Yan Jin was silent. Assistant Chen's words were like a bucket of cold water, extinguishing the glimmer of hope that had just ignited in her heart. Yes, who is she? She is Yan Jin, a strong woman who is decisive in the business world. She does not need to rely on anyone, and she does not need to worry about the gains and losses of an uncertain relationship.
"You're right. I shouldn't think about this anymore." Yan Jin took a deep breath and tried to calm his fluctuating emotions. "How are the preparations for the project going?"
She deliberately changed the subject and drew attention back to the work. Assistant Chen also understood her intention, so he stopped talking and began to report on the work progress.
"Mr. Li has already..." Assistant Chen hadn't finished speaking when the door of the box was suddenly pushed open and a hearty voice came in, "Mr. Yan, I'm sorry I'm late. There was a traffic jam on the road..." The sudden arrival of Partner Li interrupted Assistant Chen's report and Yan Jin's thoughts. She put away the loneliness on her face, put on her usual capable look, and stood up to greet this important partner.
"Mr. Li, you are joking. It's my fault for not hosting you well. I kept you waiting for so long." Yan Jin raised his glass and signaled the waiter to refill it. "Here, I'll drink a glass myself to make amends to Mr. Li."
Mr. Li smiled heartily and clinked his glass with Yan Jin's. However, his gaze lingered on her slightly pale face for a moment. "Mr. Yan, you are too polite. Work is important, but health is more important."
After three rounds of drinks, Mr. Li put down his glass and casually mentioned, "Come to think of it, I saw Mr. Yan and Mr. Xiang at the party last time. They are a perfect match made in heaven."
Yan Jin paused for a moment while holding the wine glass, then put it down calmly, "Boss Li, you are joking. Boss Xiang and I..."
"Boss Yan," Boss Li interrupted her and said earnestly, "I know there may be some friction between you young people, but I think Boss Xiang is sincere to you. Last time, in order to help you out, he turned down several important meetings. This is not something that ordinary friends can do."
Yan Jin was silent. Mr. Li's words were like a stone thrown into a calm lake, stirring up ripples. She had seen everything Xiang Yu did, and had been moved by it, but that feeling was gradually worn away by repeated disappointments.
"Mr. Li, let's not talk about the past anymore." Yan Jin said calmly, with no emotion in his tone.
Seeing that she was unwilling to talk more, Mr. Li had no choice but to bring the topic back to the project cooperation. Yan Jin quickly adjusted her state, showing her usual professionalism and decisiveness, and arranged the next cooperation matters in an orderly manner.
In the conference room, Yan Jin was flipping through the documents with a focused expression, her cold voice echoing in the conference room, analyzing the project plan and deploying the next work plan. Her calmness and self-control, as well as her decisiveness, made it impossible for everyone present to see the waves hidden in her heart.
No one knows what kind of disappointment and loneliness is hidden under Yan Jin's seemingly calm appearance. She devotes herself completely to work, trying to numb herself with busyness, not thinking, not recalling, not expecting...
Night fell, and the lights came on. After finishing a day's work, Yan Jin dragged her tired body back home. The empty room and cold air reminded her that she was the only one here.
At this moment, the doorbell suddenly rang, breaking the silence of the night...
Yan Jin opened the door and saw Xiang Yu coming back. A flash of surprise flashed in her eyes, but it was quickly replaced by indifference. "Why are you back?"
"Jin'er, I..." Xiang Yu hesitated, his eyes full of guilt, "I rushed back immediately after Mr. Li's matter was over."
"Mr. Xiang is really busy," Yan Jin said coldly, stepping aside to let him in. "I thought you would choose to have dinner with your partners. After all, talking about business is more important than me."
"That's not the case, Jin'er, you misunderstood," Xiang Yu explained anxiously, "I just want to finish work as soon as possible and come back to be with you."
"No need," Yan Jin interrupted him, a hint of fatigue in her voice, "I'm used to being alone."
Seeing this, PR Zhou, who had been silent the whole time, stepped forward to smooth things over. "Boss Yan, don't be angry. Boss Xiang can't do anything about it. It's the company's business..."
"Assistant Zhou," Yan Jin turned to look at him with a firm gaze, "The problem between Xiang Yu and I cannot be explained in a few words. What I want is not his explanation, but his attitude."
Yan Jin's words made Xiang Yu's heart tighten. He understood that he had disappointed her this time. He took a step forward and wanted to hold her hand, but she dodged him calmly.
"Jin'er, I know I was wrong, I will..."
"Later?" Yan Jin sneered, "Xiang Yu, I've heard you say the word 'later' too many times." She took a deep breath and tried to suppress the emotions in her heart, "I'm tired and don't want to repeat this cycle. Unless..."
Yan Jin paused, looked directly into Xiang Yu's eyes, and said word by word: "Unless you can show me your sincerity."
Xiang Yu's heart sank suddenly. He understood that this time, he had to take real action to win back Yan Jin's heart.
"Okay," Xiang Yu took a deep breath, his eyes firm, "I will prove it to you."
He turned around, picked up his phone, and dialed a number. "Please arrange it for me. I'm going to be at the summit..."
"Please help me arrange it. I want to be at the summit..." Xiang Yu said firmly, as if he had made some important decision.
Yan Jin watched coldly, without any emotion in her heart. The tricks that men usually use are just the same old tricks. She turned and walked into the bedroom, leaving Xiang Yu with a resolute back.
In the next few days, Xiang Yu seemed to have changed. He no longer went out early and came back late like before, but spent all his time accompanying Yan Jin. He turned down unnecessary social events, patiently accompanied her shopping, eating, watching movies, and even cooked for her in person. Although Yan Jin didn't say it, deep in her heart, the frozen crack seemed to have loosened a little.
However, the hurts of the past were like scars, deeply engraved in her heart, making it difficult for her to let down her guard.
Until Assistant Chen's unintentional words broke Yan Jin's peace.
"Mr. Yan, do you know? For this summit, Mr. Xiang..." Assistant Chen hesitated to speak, as if he was worried about something.
"What's wrong with him?" Yan Jin frowned slightly, feeling a little uneasy.
"In order to invite the partner Li that your company needs to attend the summit, Mr. Xiang...he gave up the opportunity to cooperate with another company. That company was originally the most important partner of Xiang Group this year..."
Yan Jin was stunned. She didn't expect that Xiang Yu would pay such a huge price for her. The always arrogant and domineering President Xiang actually gave up important business interests for her?
The summit arrived as scheduled. Xiang Yu, dressed in a black suit, stood tall on the stage and spoke eloquently. His eyes gleamed with confidence, and his gestures were full of the charm of a mature man. Yan Jin sat in the audience, watching him speak eloquently, with mixed feelings in her heart.
After the speech, Xiang Yu walked straight to Yan Jin, his deep gaze locked onto hers, "Jin'er, look, I keep my word."
Yan Jin avoided his gaze and said in a complicated tone, "You really... gave up the cooperation with that company for me?"
"Yes." Xiang Yu answered without hesitation, his eyes full of sincerity, "Because to me, nothing is more important than you."
Yan Jin's heart trembled suddenly. She raised her head and looked into those deep eyes, trying to find a trace of hypocrisy, but she only saw sincerity and love in her eyes.
However, at this moment, Assistant Chen hurriedly walked to Yan Jin and whispered, "Boss Yan, something bad has happened in the company..."
