Chapter 1670: No Right to Comfort Her

Jiang Motian walked over and reached out to pat Xiaoshi on the shoulder.

Yet this very action almost made Xiaoshi cry out!

Seeing him acting like a cicada in late autumn, Jiang Motian asked, "Are you alright?"

"Not alright, someone was just monitoring me at the door!"

Monitoring?

Jiang Motian first frowned, then smoothed her brow, and reassured Xiaoshi: "It might be my brother's bodyguard; he won't harm you, he's just protecting my safety."

"No, he's not a bodyguard, he..."

Xiaoshi suddenly pointed at the door and shouted: "That person is right there!"

Jiang Motian followed the direction he pointed, turned her head, and happened to see a figure flash by.

That figure...

Jiang Motian's heart beat like a drum!

She even lifted her feet and chased after them!

The other person had originally been at a distance from Jiang Motian.

But as luck would have it, a group of medical staff hurried past pushing a patient in critical condition.

To make way, this person was caught by Jiang Motian, who was right behind.

Jiang Motian seized the opportunity, grabbed his wrist, and then tentatively asked: "Is it you?"

That person did not respond.

His silence caused a burst of anger to suddenly rise in Jiang Motian's heart, and the words she spoke were also edged with sharp thorns:

"You don't even dare to face me now? That's right, you were just using me from the start; we aren't even friends!"

I don't know if it was Jiang Motian's hallucination, but this person's back seemed to stiffen a little.

And just as Jiang Motian was about to continue questioning, a "waa" sound of crying suddenly came from behind her.

At the same time, it was accompanied by a childish accusation: "My, my cake was knocked to the ground by that big sister!"

It turned out that Jiang Motian had been in such a hurry to chase the person that she accidentally bumped into a little girl.

The little girl was carrying a cake box in her hand.

Because of Jiang Motian's bump, the cake box fell to the ground.

And the beautiful little cake inside was ruined beyond recognition.

Seeing this, the girl's mother asked: "Who bumped into my baby?"

"It was her!"

The little girl pointed at Jiang Motian aggressively.

The girl's mother then walked up to Jiang Motian and accused her: "What is wrong with you? Can't you be more careful when you walk!"

Jiang Motian never expected such a small incident to occur, and she opened her mouth to apologize.

But the person in front of her took the opportunity to break free from Jiang Motian.

Then he lifted his legs and ran!

"You... Xie Wanyi!"

Jiang Motian called out the name that often appeared in her dreams.

But the figure in front did not pause.

And soon disappeared from Jiang Motian's sight.

Jiang Motian was both angry and aggrieved, thinking to herself, am I some kind of monster? He wouldn't even look... wouldn't even look at her once!

The more she thought about it, the sadder she became, and in the end, her eyes actually turned red.

Seeing this, the child's mother immediately said: "No, I haven't even said anything yet, why are you crying?"

"I'm sorry, I was being emotional."

Realizing her lack of composure, Jiang Motian immediately took a deep breath.

Afterward, she took out her phone and said to the child's mother: "How much is the cake? Let me transfer the money to you."

At this moment, the sadness on Jiang Motian's face could not be hidden, yet she still had to pretend to be strong, looking just...

Quite heartbreaking.

In the Hospital, there are partings and deaths every day; it is normal for people to lose control or be unable to restrain their emotions.

Thinking of this, the child's mother did not make Jiang Motian pay for the cake.

Instead, she patted her on the shoulder and urged her to be strong.

This mother's comfort was a bit nonsensical.

Yet it made Jiang Motian's heart ache, and she almost cried again.

Xie Wanyi was in a corner, watching Jiang Motian's every move.

When he saw Jiang Motian's sad appearance, he almost couldn't control himself and wanted to run over to comfort her!

But...

What right did he have to comfort her?

It was his own greed just now, wanting to take one more look at Jiang Motian, that led to all these subsequent events.

Now, he absolutely must not be willful again.

Xie Wanyi had come to the Hospital today to see what kind of tricks that man named Xiaoshi was going to pull.

He never thought he would run into Jiang Motian.

Nor did he think he would hear the conversation between Jiang Motian and Xiaoshi.

It's just that...

Why did he feel a sense of déjà vu when listening to that man reminisce about the past?

Xie Wanyi tried to recall, but his head suddenly throbbed with intense pain!

That pain even made him feel dizzy.

It took a long while for that uncomfortable sensation to slowly fade away.

But at the same time, a cloying, sweet scent drilled into his nostrils!

Xie Wanyi sensed something; he furrowed his brows and was about to leave.

Yet an arm, like a water snake, coiled around Xie Wanyi's arm.

Then, Xu Nianxin rested her chin on Xie Wanyi's shoulder, her voice coquettish: "What are you standing here for?"

Xie Wanyi first looked toward the spot where Jiang Motian had just been standing.

Seeing that Jiang Motian was no longer there, he then pulled away from Xu Nianxin and said expressionlessly, "What are you here for?"

"To see you, of course!"

"I am very busy."

"I know you're busy, which is why I specifically came to help you."

Xu Nianxin linked her arm with Xie Wanyi's again, her eyes affectionate: "The company opens in two days, and when that time comes, I want to stand by your side!"

After enduring countless hardships, the Hall Master finally transformed the Organization.

Now, they were to start over and strive for success under the guise of an internet company.

Xie Wanyi had not participated in the discussions regarding the company's location.

But he had assumed they would not leave Europe.

Yet, it turned out to be in the country...

And in the very city where Jiang Motian was!

Xie Wanyi hoped the Hall Master would reconsider.

But this was already the result of careful consideration; the Hall Master had even let Xie Wanyi handle all matters of the new company.

Since returning, Xie Wanyi had been very tired.

It was not just physical exhaustion; his heart was even more tired.

He had to exert great effort to restrain himself so he wouldn't meet with Jiang Motian.

Now, looking at the eager Xu Nianxin, he felt even more tired...

Xie Wanyi suppressed his impatience and said in a voice devoid of emotional fluctuation, "I will handle the matters; you don't need to trouble yourself."

His aloofness made Xu Nianxin gradually feel aggrieved.

It had not been easy for her to get here.

The obstruction from her father alone had left her exhausted.

Yet the man she loved turned a blind eye to her hard work and always wanted to keep his distance from her...

Xu Nianxin felt so sad all of a sudden.

The pride within her still compelled her to question him: "I put in plenty of effort to get the company opened! Even if you just consider my contributions, you shouldn't treat me like this!"

Xie Wanyi hated being coerced.

Not to mention that Xu Nianxin's meddling had been of no use at all.

Facing Xu Nianxin's questioning, he said in a flat tone, "I never asked you to do that."

Xie Wanyi's reply made Xu Nianxin want to cry.

She pursed her lips and asked, "Can you not keep people at a distance? What exactly do I have to do to melt your heart!?"

"The barrier between us cannot be melted."

Facing Xu Nianxin's fragility, Xie Wanyi turned a blind eye.

It seemed he was born incapable of being gentle toward women.

Li Beijue watched her, and his heart felt as if it had been struck hard by something; a sour, aching sensation instantly spread through him.
