Chapter 912: We’ll Have a Wonderful Family
Meanwhile, Zhang Jiasen was someone who had grown up soaking in bitterness. He had crawled on the thorny path full of brambles towards success. In the depths of his heart, he was envious of Miao Miaomiao. In front of Miao Miaomiao who was completely pure, he seemed much more stained by the world. His heart contained too many complicated things.
Even if he liked Xue Manman, it was only because he and Xue Manman were the same type of people.
Miao Miaomiao was so beautiful that it incited the desire to destroy that beauty. And in the end, Zhang Jiasen had dragged Miao Miaomiao into hell and made her lose everything she had.
“You’ve really fallen in love with Miao Miaomiao?” When Xue Manman saw that Zhang Jiasen wasn’t speaking, she thought that this was silent confirmation. Tears spun in her eyes. She tilted her head back to try to force her tears back, but they still fell.
Zhang Jiasen sighed, then he wiped away the tears on Xue Manman’s face and said gently, “There’s nothing like that. I don’t like Miao Miaomiao, I like girls like you. I can tell you with certainty that I’ve never liked Miao Miaomiao.”
Xue Manman smiled through her tears when she heard this. Her gaze gentle and filled with love. “I don’t care about having a status, I only want to be together with you.”
“I know.” Zhang Jiasen took a deep breath.
Zhang Jiasen’s appointment to CEO would occur a couple days later. Ning Shu would be the one to announce Zhang Jiasen’s appointment as CEO in front of the company’s superiors.
In the office, Ning Shu sat on the sofa as she watched Zhang Jiasen slowly button up his shirt sleeves, then put on his suit.
It was like an emperor donning the dragon robe before ascending the throne.
Zhang Jiasen was in glowing spirits today. There was a bit of pomade in his hair which made him look very sharp and stern. His entire body emitted the aura of an elite.
It was very captivating.
The current Zhang Jiasen had already taken the first step towards success.
When Zhang Jiasen saw Ning Shu looking at him, he asked, “Is this outfit alright?”
Ning Shu got up and fixed Zhang Jiasen’s necktie. “Very good.”
Zhang Jiasen took Ning Shu’s hand and said, “I’m really happy right now. I feel like this is the most blessed moment of my life.”
“Miaomiao, we’ll continue to live a blessed life. We’ll have our own children, and on the weekends, we’ll go to the park and watch our children play. We’ll have a wonderful family.” Zhang Jiasen smiled happily like he was imagining the scene of that life.
His tone became more and more sincere. “I want to hold your hand even as our hairs turn white with age.”
Ning Shu: …
Was he pretending that she was Xue Manman?
Even as our hairs turned white with age?
You probably frickin’ just want to do that with Xue Manman.
Ha. Ha. Ha.
Please stop being so disgusting.
Ning Shu gave a very fake smile and said mildly, “Of course we’ll be together until old age.”
Zhang Jiasen said insistently, “Miaomiao, I’m serious. I’m sincere about this.”
He seriously didn’t give up. It was enough already that he acted it out once, was there a need to keep repeating it?
Ning Shu laughed, then lifted her wrist to check her watch. “The meeting is about to start.”
“Miaomiao…” Zhang Jiasen still wanted to say something, but when he saw how uninterested Ning Shu looked, he swallowed his words back.
Zhang Jiasen seemed a little nervous, but he was about to obtain what he had always wanted after all, so it was to be expected. He kept pacing back and forth in the office.
Ning Shu just drank water calmly. Her attitude was completely different from that of Zhang Jiasen who was trying his hardest to suppress his excitement and anxiousness.
“Director, the heads of each department have already arrived.” Xue Manman pushed open the door and walked in.
Ning Shu sized Xue Manman up and found that she wasn’t wearing brand names anymore. She was now wearing ordinary earrings and her shoes were no longer brand names either.
She had gotten rid of all the brand names on her in one sweep. Ning Shu said with a smile, “Secretary Xue, the brooch you were wearing last time was really nice. Why aren’t you wearing it anymore?”
Secretary Xue’s face turned pale, but she quickly replied in a calm manner, “I borrowed that from a friend, so I already gave it back.”
Ning Shu nodded with an expression of realization.
“You should head to the meeting first. We’ll be there soon.” Zhang Jiasen spoke to help Secretary Xue out of this situation.
Xue Manman hastily went outside.
Ning Shu scoffed. Such behavior.
