Chapter 89: Chapter 89 Can You Please Not Marry Xie Yanchuan

Jinzhi curled her lips and said, "What happened last night is in the past, don’t show up in front of me again to disturb me, and naturally I won’t think of it."

Their eyes met, the disdain on Jinzhi’s face was crystal clear.

She wasn’t lying to Xu Tiancheng. In fact, what happened last night was simple. Xu Tiancheng didn’t do anything to her, and she wasn’t neurotic enough to hold a grudge against him. She couldn’t be bothered with someone like him.

"Can you get out of the way now?" Jinzhi spoke faintly.

Xu Tiancheng’s face turned red with embarrassment. He already felt ashamed, and now he had lost all face.

But he couldn’t offend Jinzhi; if his father found out, he might end up begging on the streets.

Xu Tiancheng didn’t say a word and clenched his teeth, making way for Jinzhi.

Jinzhi left without hesitation, and the staff behind her also seemed to turn a blind eye to Xu Tiancheng, quickly following Jinzhi out.

It seemed that the matter of last night ended here.

Actually, for Jinzhi, last night had already ended; she had no interest in dwelling on it.

However, He Jingyi, who had been quiet for a while, started popping up in front of Jinzhi like someone had flipped a switch on him.

Jinzhi joined everyone for a meal in the hotel restaurant since they were going back the day after tomorrow. She was eager to finish her work as they didn’t even have time to rest at noon.

While eating, Jinzhi didn’t forget to tell Assistant Chen, "Remember to arrange some afternoon tea for everyone later."

"Okay." Assistant Chen didn’t say anything more and silently noted the task.

Jinzhi continued eating, but suddenly a shadow appeared in front of her. She instinctively looked up and saw He Jingyi walking over.

Watching He Jingyi sit down next to Assistant Chen, Jinzhi felt a bit overwhelmed. She was already busy, couldn’t this older brother stay out of trouble?

Assistant Chen, can you mind if I sit here?" Although he was asking Assistant Chen, He Jingyi’s gaze was fixed on Jinzhi.

Assistant Chen, the innocent fall guy, looked up at He Jingyi and then at Jinzhi sitting across from him; then he bowed his head and continued eating, pretending he hadn’t heard anything.

To this, He Jingyi felt dissatisfied. He thought he had at least some "relationship" with Assistant Chen!

But now that "relationship" was useless. He Jingyi could only look at Jinzhi with a sense of grievance, "Can I sit here?"

"If I say no, will you leave?" Jinzhi felt no pity at all; if she had spare time, she’d rather go back and dote on Xie Yanchuan.

He Jingyi did not respond. He had already come over, how could he possibly leave?

Jinzhi also stayed silent, knowing he wouldn’t go. Why waste words?

Everyone at Jinzhi’s table were her subordinates, and since they were all very familiar with each other’s personalities, the meal was lively with conversation.

However, the atmosphere turned noticeably quieter once He Jingyi sat down; everyone diligently ate their meals without uttering unnecessary words.

After a long silence, He Jingyi finally spoke softly, "Jinzhi, could we chat alone for a moment later?"

"I’m busy, I don’t have time for your nonsense." Jinzhi replied coldly, without even lifting her head.

He Jingyi’s eyes reddened slightly, and he seemed to feel extremely wronged, yet he bit his lip, never allowing himself to shed a tear. He was like a stubborn little wolf cub.

After a long while, He Jingyi said in a somewhat hoarse voice, "Just for a moment, it won’t take too much of your time."

"He Jingyi, wasn’t I clear enough before?" Xu Jinzhi frowned.

"This is the last time," He Jingyi said.

Xu Jinzhi looked at He Jingyi and finally nodded, "Okay."

After the meal, Assistant Chen and the other colleagues left first, while Xu Jinzhi and He Jingyi went to the coffee shop next door.

The two of them sat down in a quiet corner. Xu Jinzhi asked, "What do you want to talk about?"

He Jingyi opened his mouth, but it seemed he hadn’t figured out how to phrase it, and for a moment, he couldn’t speak.

Since they were already there, Xu Jinzhi wasn’t in a hurry, and she genuinely hoped that after this time, He Jingyi would come to terms and stop clinging to her.

So Xu Jinzhi wasn’t in a rush, and when He Jingyi didn’t speak, she patiently waited.

After a while, He Jingyi finally asked, "Do you really like Xie Yanchuan?"

"Of course," Xu Jinzhi answered without hesitation.

Of course, she liked Xie Yanchuan, otherwise why would she choose to be with Xie Yanchuan again after rebirth.

"But I’ve heard others say that it’s not like that!" He Jingyi’s eyes reddened again, seeming unable to accept that Xu Jinzhi liked Xie Yanchuan.

"Others?" Xu Jinzhi slightly furrowed her brow.

"They all say you are with Xie Yanchuan because he is easy to control!" He Jingyi said.

Although He Jingyi hadn’t seen Xu Jinzhi for a long time before yesterday, he always heard about her from others.

Most people couldn’t understand why Xu Jinzhi suddenly got engaged to Xie Yanchuan. It would be normal if it was Xie Linchuan, but oddly, it wasn’t Xie Linchuan but Xie Yanchuan.

However, some people saw the essence through imagination and said that being with Xie Yanchuan was the best choice for Xu Jinzhi.

After all, Xu Jinzhi was the only daughter of the Xu Family. Everything of the Xu Family would be hers in the future. Finding someone of equal status wasn’t necessarily a good thing; in case the other party had any schemes, it would be easier to plot against Xu Jinzhi.

Xie Yanchuan was much easier to manage in comparison.

"Jinzhi! I’m even easier to control than Xie Yanchuan! I promise to obey you in everything. Please don’t marry Xie Yanchuan," He Jingyi begged pitifully, like a little child who was being bullied.

Xu Jinzhi rolled her eyes, "He Jingyi, you are quite funny. You don’t believe what I say myself, but you’re willing to believe the nonsense others talk about."

"Also saying you’ll do anything I say, isn’t that a contradiction?"

He Jingyi wanted to retort, but for a moment, he didn’t know how to argue.

Xu Jinzhi took a deep breath, trying to be as patient as possible, "He Jingyi, it’s very fortunate to encounter someone you like who also likes you."

"But if not, then just live well on your own. Is there nothing else to your life besides love?"

"He Jingyi, you’re not young anymore. Uncle He has been persisting through these hard years, just hoping to hold on until you can stand on your own."
