C141 Sad Summer Rain

Ye Chen walked out of the district's entrance and got into a taxi. He arrived at the company on time, but he did not see Chu Ling'er and Wang Xiaoting today. Furthermore, Chu Ling'er had not sent him to pick her up for two days.

Ye Chen arrived at the :Logistics Department, greeted his colleagues, and then sat in his own office.

Xia Yu heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Ye Chen was fine.

Not long after, Xia Yu knocked on the partition that separated Ye Chen's office area and Xia Yu's office area. Then, she stretched her small head over and smiled at Ye Chen.

"Are you okay?" Xia Yu asked in concern.

"En, it's nothing important. Keep a low profile. Don't brag about it, haha." Ye Chen also laughed and said, but the two of them did not speak very loudly, and were whispering.

Xia Yu handed over a small box to Ye Chen.

"What is this?" Ye Chen did not immediately receive it, and instead asked Xia Yu puzzledly.

Xia Yu's face suddenly turned red, her limpid eyes looked at Ye Chen, a little excited, and said softly: "The fruit I brought for you, will help your knee recover quickly."

Ye Chen was afraid of this, and knew that he had saved Xia Yu last night, and for that, Xia Yu had even offered her his first kiss, so now he must have gotten involved in the matter. Seems like Xia Yu wanted to chase after him, if it was anyone else, such a cute and beautiful girl chasing after him, that would be something that Ye Chen would definitely wish for, but Ye Chen could not take it.

So Ye Chen laughed and said: "Thank you, but I won't eat any fruits. You should just eat them, it's good for your skin."

This was the first time Xia Yu had done this. He didn't expect to bump into a wall the first time, and his face immediately showed a little disappointment, but also some awkwardness. He took back his hand and the small box, and sat there in silence.

Ye Chen knew that he had definitely hurt Xia Yu's heart by acting like this, but he had no other choice. It was better than hurting her in the future, he didn't bother to explain anything to Yu Yu Feng as he just sat there and meditated on his own matters.

Ye Chen suddenly thought of Su Mann and didn't call her during this period of time. A few days ago, she had sent a message to him asking why he was there, but she had forgotten about it after being so busy. Since there was nothing important tonight, Ye Chen quickly took out his phone and replied to Su Mann with a message.

"Sorry, I've been too busy these past few days and I haven't found the time to accompany you. Do you have anything to do tonight?" "If there's nothing else, I'll pick you up after work." Ye Chen finished editing and replied.

Not long after, Su Mann replied a message to Ye Chen.

"It's okay, I know you're busy, I'm not blaming you. I'll be waiting for you in my room tonight, I'm fine."

Ye Chen held the phone, laughed, Su Mann was a really sensible girl.

Suddenly hearing the sound of something sliding, Sister Hee Chu came over to Ye Chen's side, two hands on Ye Chen's work, looking at him.

Ye Chen looked extremely confused, he laughed and said: "Sister You, is there something on my face?"

Sister Hee Chu pursed his lips and said with a smile.

"There are indeed flowers, and they are peach blossoms. If not, would your luck with the peach blossoms be so good?"

Ye Chen scratched his head in embarrassment. He was sure that Sister Hee Chu saw it when it rained and passed him something just now. Did Sister Hee Chu see my text message just now? Both of them had seen it!

"Sister Hee Chu, how could I have such luck with the flowers? Don't speak nonsense."

Sister Hee Chu moved closer to Ye Chen and kicked his calf.

"Stinking brat, you're still pretending? I heard it just now, and I saw it too, the fruit our beautiful :Logistics Department Xia Yu brought for you, you actually rejected it! Are you an idiot? Furthermore, eating fruits is good for the girl's skin.

Ye Chen continued to feign ignorance: "Sister Hee Chu, eating fruits is good for your skin, you have to eat more too."

"That's true, I thought you had rejected Xia Yu, but you brat, you really are unscrupulous, why are you so adamant on taking it all over now, if you really think eating fruits is good for the girl's skin, why not just buy it for her later? You really are a foolish child, do you know that ever since Xia Yu came to the company, he rarely talked to his male colleagues, and now that you have come, he has changed. You actually took the initiative to talk to him, and now that I'm sending you fruits, you can go and be happy. "

Ye Chen laughed bitterly.

"Sister Hee Chu, it's not that I don't like Xia Yu, but someone like me, how could I have the qualifications to enter a relationship? No room, no car, no savings, just this little bit of salary every month, it would even be difficult for me to support myself, how can I make a girlfriend?"

"Aiya, I don't care about those who don't. Just tell me, what is your impression of us Xia Yu?"

"This... Of course Xia Yu is fine, do you still need to say this? "

"Isn't that enough? I told you, what you said, houses, cars, savings, whatever are very important to some superficial women, and we, Xia Yu, are not some superficial women. But it's true, a man must have a bit of economic foundation, and the most important thing is that he has potential. If he doesn't have potential, he would definitely have some potential, but if Xia Yu sees in you, he will definitely see your potential.

Ye Chen felt that if he did not explain this clearly, it would become more and more messy. Furthermore, Xia Yu was still at the side, so the conversation between him and Sister Hee Chu might not be complete, but Xia Yu would definitely be able to hear most of it. Ye Chen did not want Xia Yu to hold any hope in him either.

Ye Chen didn't say anything for a long time. Sister Hee Chu was a bit anxious, he kicked Ye Chen again, and this time, it hit Ye Chen's knee. Although Ye Chen had pretty much fully recovered, but if he touched it, it would still hurt.

Xia Yu hurriedly turned his head to look at Ye Chen, and asked: "Are you alright?"

Ye Chen looked at Xia Yu awkwardly and shook his head, sighing.

"Say something, look at Xia Yu."

"Actually, I already have someone I love in my heart, so, sorry, Xia Yu …"

Xia Yu returned to his seat, as if he had lost his soul, and didn't say anything.

Sister Hee Chu looked at Ye Chen in disbelief: "Brat, are you speaking the truth?"

"Of course it's true." Ye Chen nodded with certainty.

You can't be lying to us, right? You've been working for almost a month, and I haven't seen you talk to any girl, nor have I seen that girl look for you. Ah, no, it can't be that girl who was waiting for you at the entrance of the company last time, right?

"That's not her. The person in my heart is currently studying in a university. He's still a university student."

"No way!" Hee Chu looked at Ye Chen with wide eyes in shock. She had originally thought that Ye Chen was lying to her, but what Ye Chen was saying now, didn't seem to be lying to her at all.

"It's true. If you don't believe me, just look." With that, Ye Chen took out his phone and showed Sister Hee Chu the text message he had sent.

Sister Hee Chu looked and sighed regretfully.

When we get back, I will chat a bit with Xia Yu. It's rare that she has a good impression of you, but now, it's really been a huge blow to her. You brat, have you ever had a girlfriend, why did you say that earlier and cause so many misunderstandings?

Ye Chen scratched his head in embarrassment and thanked her repeatedly.

I can only say that you and Xia Yu have no fate with each other, so you don't need to take it to heart. When we get back, I will go and enlighten Xia Yu, and then that's right, if there's a chance to bring your girlfriend over, let us see, it seems like your luck is really good, you actually have a college girlfriend, okay? "

Ye Chen chuckled, and said: "Haha, alright, Sister Hee Chu, when you say you want her to come over, I will let her come over. But for Xia Yu's side, I hope that you will trouble yourself."

Sister Hee Chu nodded and slipped back into her own office.

Xia Yu heard Ye Chen say that he already had a girlfriend, and that she was a university student at that. This made Xia Yu even more disappointed, because Ye Chen had never said that she wanted to be with him, and it was just his wishful thinking. The two of them had never been together before, so when Xia Yu heard that he had a girlfriend, he did not blame Ye Chen.

Last night, when Xia Yu returned home, his mind kept replaying the dangerous scene inside the elevator. He was still worried about Ye Chen's knees, and even went to the internet to look up information, but the content of the post on the internet was just outlines, and it did not detail what kind of injuries he would suffer, only writing about how he would fall to his death. This was Xia Yu's first reaction, even though he was on such a high floor, and was freeloading his own body and even hugging him, it was really a miracle that Ye Chen was still alive.

He was unscathed the previous night, but because Ye Chen was injured because of him, if Ye Chen had protected him while he was fine, Xia Yu's gratitude towards him wouldn't have been so strong. However, Ye Chen had completely disregarded his own safety last night and saved her and faced his own death, how much courage would that require. To be able to risk his life to save, was not something anyone could do.

Xia Yu did not believe that Ye Chen would be that kind of person. Furthermore, the more Ye Chen acted in such a way, the more Xia Yu regarded him with importance, and the more he felt that Ye Chen was grateful towards him, and in his heart, he felt that he liked Ye Chen a little more. But now, thinking back on it, the reason why Ye Chen did such a thing last night, was definitely because Ye Chen did not want him to have any sort of good impression towards him, and was telling him that it was impossible.

Xia Yu was an extremely introverted girl. Like what Sister Hee Chu had said, before Ye Chen came, he did not talk much with his male colleagues in the company, but after Ye Chen came, Xia Yu also slowly changed a bit. This morning, he brought Ye Chen some washed up, sliced off some fruits, and it was only because Xia Yu mustered up a lot of courage that he was able to do it.

But after hearing the conversation between Ye Chen and Sister Hee Chu, Xia Yu felt relieved when he thought about it. Even if he had treated Ye Chen pretty well, Ye Chen already had a girlfriend, and she didn't accept his kindness. This only meant that Ye Chen was very professional, and with a girlfriend, he wouldn't change his mind, but thinking about it was really a pity, a pity that he couldn't pursue Ye Chen anymore.
