Chapter 122 - I Want To See Him

"Gengxin, don't be like this. We were once such good friends. Can you not draw such a distance between us?"

A mocking sneer formed on Qin Gengxin's lips. "You don't need to beat around the bush. I'm not Xian Zihao. I don't have the patience to listen to your nonsense."

After saying that, he looked at the slight unease in Zhou Shufen's eyes with a cold gaze. In the end, he could not bear to do so and sighed. "Tell me, why are you looking for me? It's been five years, and you appeared so sudden. Please don't say it was because you want to be my secretary. With your position among the elite circle, I worry my insignificant Qin could not afford to hire a Buddha like you."

"I want to see him." Knowing that Qin Gengxin was impatient with her, Zhou Shufen directly said.

"See who?" Qin Gengxin's handsome eyebrows slightly raised as he placed his hand casually on his desk. He looked at the woman who used to be so proud but was now so nervous and uneasy with a smile that didn't seem like a smile.

Zhou Shufen raised her watery eyes that were rippling with light. "Xian Zihao."

Qin Gengxin chuckled. "Miss Zhou, it's been five years. After five years you just remembered to look for Xian Zihao. Don't you think it's too late?"

"I know that whatever I'm saying now is of no use, explaining is useless, and it took a lot of effort to find you, but you're so busy at work every day, I don't have a chance to see you, and recently you've been in China, so I have no choice but to find an opportunity to climb to a position close to you and wait for you to come back." Zhou Shufen's voice was soft, but not weak. It was still as clear and melodious as it used to be.

"You seem to have found the wrong person." Qin Gengxin sneered.

"I have no way of contacting him right now, so I can only come to find you." Zhou Shufen explained softly, "Gengxin, I know that you went to H City. I also know that Xian Zihao is in H City too. Can you let me go with you?"

Qin Gengxin did not say anything.

His slender body slowly leaned back against his chair.

His eyes coldly swept Zhou Shufen's pleading eyes.

Seeing that he did not say anything, Zhou Shufen bit her lips. "Gengxin, can you help me? I want to find him."

"If I knew this would happen, I wouldn't come back." Qin Gengxin frowned. "Aren't you afraid that in the five years you've been gone, Zihao already has a beautiful wife he loves so much by his side? He may have forgotten you!"

"He didn't. I believe he won't. He isn't a man who will easily change his mind. He won't get married so early!" Zhou Shufen's eyes were filled with certainty.

Qin Gengxin raised his eyebrows and sneered. "How do you know he didn't?"

"I feel it."

"Feel?" Qin Gengxin reprimanded with a laugh, "How laughable! You are too much. You're too confident. Back then, he had doted on you in every way possible, but he couldn't even defeat your ambition. You should be grateful to have a boyfriend like him. After five years, you have a gut to say that to me? Now that you want to find him, I'm afraid it will be very difficult for you to fulfill your wish."

"If I don't give it a try, how do I know?" Zhou Shufen smiled confidently.

Qin Gengxin's eyebrows furrowed slightly. He seemed to be in a difficult situation. "What if I say I don't want to help you?"

"You'll help me."

"Are you sure?"

"You don't want Zihao to be in China. You want him to return to Boston. The reason he left Boston was because of me." Zhou Shufen tilted her head and smiled. Her eyes were glittering with spirit energy.

Qin Gengxin didn't say a word. His thin lips pursed as he looked at Zhou Shufen's sparkled eyes that bright with determination.

To Xian Zihao, Zhou Shufen was a person from his past who cannot be mentioned. If Zhou Shufen actually went to look for him, Qin Gengxin could not imagine what kind of consequences it would be.

He did not have the confidence to gamble on whether it was good or bad.

In the evening, a charity dinner was held in the province. Since it was held for a serious purpose, there was no need for all invitations to change into formal attire.

Jiang Ruolan didn't dress at all, she simply combed her hair into a ponytail.

When she was sent to the gathering place, she did not see Xian Zihao

Because he had matters to discuss with others in the afternoon, she was sent back to the hotel.

Jiang Ruolan didn't know whether Xian Zihao had arrived or not, so she looked at the time and walked straight into the banquet hall.

The banquet hall was grand and magnificent. The moment Jiang Ruolan walked in, she saw Secretary Du walking towards her. "Miss Jiang"

"I'm not late, am I?" Jiang Ruolan asked with a smile.

"No, everyone comes one by one. Dinner will start in about half an hour. President Xian is inside. Miss Jiang, please come with me."

Jiang Ruolan nodded and followed Secretary Du through the bustling crowd. Soon, they saw a tall, slender figure standing among the crowd.

Xian Zihao was in the middle of a discussion with some business partners. When he saw Jiang Ruolan, he smiles affectionately at her.

Xian Zihao wrapped his arm around Jiang Ruolan's waist. He smiled and introduced Jiang Ruolan to those people around him. "These two are Director w.a.n.g and Director Yan from Beijing. We often come in contact, so you must get to know them."

Just like that, Jiang Ruolan was gently embraced by Xian Zihao as she stood in front of the two middle-aged men who had polite smiles plastered on their faces.

Jiang Ruolan quickly extended her hand and shook it. "h.e.l.lo everyone, it's our first time meeting each other."

"h.e.l.lo h.e.l.lo, Is this your wife, President Xian? You two are indeed a perfect match, haha!"

"Miss Jiang is a dignified and generous person. She suits President Xian very well."

They both seemed more righteous as they shook hands with Jiang Ruolan and teasing Xian Zihao. "Why didn't you even hold a wedding? If you didn't mention it, we wouldn't have known that you were married."

"I've been quite busy for a few months now. The wedding will definitely be held soon." Xian Zihao laughed
