Free Web NovelChapter 706: Sheng Yi Knows He’s Here_2
After she issued the ultimatum, unexpectedly, after a long silence, what she got from Dao An was just: "Mm, I understand."
The completely calm tone revealed no fluctuations, nor could any strange emotions be discerned.
Gu Yuan was bewildered.
But she did not let her bewilderment show on her face.
In a slightly cool tone, she said, "I’m not an expert in emotions, I really don’t understand what you mean, Dao An, you can express your opinion on this to me."
As the words fell, Dao An’s gaze came over, meeting Gu Yuan’s eyes.
As he looked over, Gu Yuan saw his eyes.
She slightly hesitated.
Almost thinking she hadn’t seen clearly.
But what she saw was indeed Dao An’s eyes, tinged with a hint of blood-red.
Only then did Gu Yuan realize, the reason he had not reacted, the reason he had not expressed himself, was because he was restraining his emotions, trying hard to restrain them...
At the same time, Gu Yuan also recalled, after her finished speaking without hesitation, she only saw Dao An’s silent expression, but did not see Dao An’s eyes.
A person’s eyes are the most expressive of emotion.
All joys and sorrows can be seen in the eyes, all good and bad, written in the eyes, even if you want to hide, you cannot hide it.
Gu Yuan felt what it meant to have words stuck in your throat, with some words right on the tip of her tongue yet not knowing how to continue.
The emotions conveyed by Dao An’s eyes, also being a woman, President Gu understood, how could Jane not understand too.
She was even more shocked.
"Ann..." Her voice trembled slightly.
In her eyes, this man, always strategic, had just arrived on Wall Street and forcefully entered the financial circle, as if he had come with a mission, with a power to sweep away all before him, strongly controlling his home court, stirring the entire Financial Street into turmoil.
The father of the funds once said, within no more than three years, this man would have most of the Financial Street’s bigwigs under his foot.
This man is a god, he is the future legend of Wall Street.
The man Jane favored was not only absolutely outstanding but top-notch outstanding, unmatchable by anyone.
She thought this man was heartless and emotionless, not easily talking about feelings, so she tried her best to get close to him, hoping to get a bit of his attention, hoping to get his love, hoping to always fight alongside him and reach the peak.
And the man she was doing everything to get, was actually hiding a huge secret, that secret being deeply in love with another woman, cautiously keeping anyone from discovering it...
To say she’s not jealous would be a lie!
Such an outstanding man, the woman whom he cherishes in his heart, what qualities does she have!!
Seeing Ann’s eyes turning red because of the woman President Gu mentioned, Jane fearfully grasped the man’s arm: "Ann!!"
The man did not turn his eyes.
He only removed her hand.
Gazing at her hand being removed, Jane’s heart felt as if it was being torn apart, the pain spreading throughout her body, that is such a feeling.
What happened next, what Jane did, what Dao An said, all no longer mattered.
Gu Yuan watched Jane’s departure, observed the man at the brink of losing his composure bit by bit, what she needed to do, the words she needed to say were all concluded, it was also time for her to leave.
...
Gu Yuan’s thoughts were pulled away from the scenes just occurred in the Empire State Building.
What Sheng Yi said next to her, she didn’t know, she only heard:
"Yuanyuan, I was wrong."
Gathering her thoughts, some of Sheng Yi’s words she hadn’t caught, she wasn’t sure why she suddenly admitted wrong, she just asked her, "What were you wrong about?"
"I was just wrong."
While admitting wrong, Sheng Yi didn’t even dare to lift her head to see Gu Yuan’s expression, scared to see any disappointment written on Gu Yuan’s face.
Gu Yuan tilted her head slightly, somewhat helplessly amused, asking the puzzle in her heart: "Why do you always think it’s your fault?"
Sheng Yi: "I..."
Gu Yuan reminded, "Look up while speaking."
Sheng Yi: "I..."
Gu Yuan: "Look at me while speaking."
Only then did Sheng Yi slowly look up, but still didn’t dare to look at Gu Yuan’s face, Gu Yuan reached out to cup her chin and made her look at her, during their gaze, Sheng Yi’s expression looked quite aggrieved, with a muffled voice saying to Gu Yuan, "You always tell me that I must be able to take it up and not put it down, with a person like me, I let you down... Actually I’m already trying my best to adjust my mindset, I will be fine soon, please don’t be angry."
