Love So Sweet

172 Made Her Decision

On that sleepless night, Zhang Li Xue has been thinking about her short walk with Bai Qi. As she stared at the ceiling, Zhang Li Xue finally made her decision.

If Bai Qi did not have anyone he liked, then... Zhang Li Xue decided that she was going to chase after him.

Zhang Li Xue was not someone who thought that it was embarrassing for a woman to chase after a man.

In her opinion, as long as she liked that person, it was not wrong for a woman to make a move. Otherwise, she might lose a good chance.

She did not want to lose her opportunity.

After getting to know Bai Qi for the past few months, she realized that her feelings toward him had grown.

Bai Qi is a good man and very hard working. He’s caring and protective. What she liked the most was how comfortable it was to be around him.

Even after what happened to him and his family, the man had not given up and had raised his little sister. Zhang Li Xue found that the initial admiration towards him had gradually changed into something else.

Now that she had realized this feeling, Zhang Li Xue wanted to try and take the next step. This time, she was no longer studying and did not have to hold herself back just like she had done a few years ago with Mu Zhen Yu.

.....

A few years ago, she had once developed some feelings towards Mu Zhen Yu. They were very young and she wanted to continue to focus on her study first.

She had wanted to wait until they had graduated.

Later, Mu Zhen Yu moved away, and with that, the feelings she had for him gradually faded.

At least, during the few encounter she had with Mu Zhen Yu recently, Zhang Li Xue no longer had the same feelings for him.

Her heart did not flutter when she saw him.

Nowadays, she only thought of Mu Zhen Yu as her friend and a brother who would often look after her.

Zhang Li Xue had always remembered what her father had once told her...

He said that a relationship required hard work between the two partners. Even though her father had married her mother, he had never stopped working hard to woo her.

Otherwise, that feeling would gradually disappear.

Perhaps, her feelings towards Mu Zhen Yu were like that.

The moment he chose to continue his study in G Country, their relationship was never the same as it was before.

...

As it was her last week at the HR Department, Zhang Li Xue has been working hard to clear most of her workload.

On her last day, her colleagues reminded her again to come over to chat with them whenever she can.

Zhang Li Xue gathered her belongings and put them into a box. She was going to send them over to the Sales and Marketing department when her father appeared at the door.

Just like that, the lively atmosphere in the department turned quiet.

Zhang Li Xue raised her head and smiled.

“Are you done with packing?” Zhang Yu Han asked.

“Mmm...” Zhang Li Xue nodded. She motioned towards the box and said,” All packed up.”

“Here. Let me carry them for you.”

“Ah... Daddy, I can carry them.” Zhang Li Xue turned around to grab her box. However, before she could have done so, her father had helped to carry it for her.

“Let’s put them in my office first,” Zhang Yu Han said. “Next week, I will send you to the new department.” Then, he turned to look at everyone in the department. “Thank you for looking after Li Xue.”

“President Zhang, don’t be too polite,” the elders among the colleague said.

The others did not dare to say more. In everyone’s opinion, President Zhang was someone who always had a serious look on his face.

In the beginning, they found that it was hard to believe that such a serious person would have such a cheerful daughter. They quickly concluded that Zhang Li Xue should take after her mother.

After saying a few words, Zhang Li Xue followed her father to his office.

Zhang Yu Han placed the box in the corner of his room and turned to his daughter. “It was your last day at the department. What do you think?”

“Mmm... I learned a lot in this department as well,” Zhang Li Xue said. Then, she started to tell her father about her experience in the department.

“The manager had a good opinion of you,” Zhang Yu Han said. He walked over to his daughter and patted her on her shoulder. “Li Xue, you have worked hard.”

Zhang Li Xue had a sheepish smile on her face. She always felt good each time she listened to her parents praising her.

“Let’s head back home early today,” Zhang Yu Han said. “Your mother said, we are expecting a guest tonight.”

“Who?”

“It’s your Aunt Han and her husband.”

The corner of her lips began to twitch.

Aunt Han or Han Yue Xiu was her mother’s best friend.

Zhang Li Xue loved her Aunt Han a lot. However, it was also because of this aunt that she had developed a fear of staying alone in a dark place.

Aunt Han loved watching a horror movies a little too much. Each time that she watched a horror movie, she would ensure that the surrounding was dark as well.

There was once when Zhang Li Xue accompanied this aunt to watch a movie when she was young.

The movie traumatized her so much that she had a nightmare for a few days. Later, she did not dare to watch another horror movie. And since then, she would get scared each time it was dark outside.

Zhang Li Xue returned to her house with her father.

Just as her father had said, her Aunt Han and her husband were at home. The moment she entered the house with her father, Zhang Li Xue walked over to her aunt and greeted her. “Aunt Han, you’re getting prettier.”

Han Yue Xiu laughed when she heard her words. “You’re getting better at sweet talking.”

Zhang Li Xue stuck out her tongue and laughed. “Aunt Han, why are you visiting Y City this time?”

Han Yue Xiu turned to her husband. “Your uncle wanted to invest in a company..”

“It’s the company under Mu Zhen Yu,” Li Qin Yao said. “I already told your aunt that Mu Zhen Yu is your childhood friend. Li Xue, how about you helped to introduce them?”

Zhang Li Xue thought about her meeting with Mu Zhen Yu tomorrow and agreed.
