The aloof beauty always has weak legs; the crazy boss is too ruthless.

Chapter 129 Farewell
In November, the northern part of Xiaomopo is not as cold as the northern part of the city; the wind has a slight chill, similar to autumn in the northern part of the city.

Lu Siqi still felt a little cold, so when Lin Chen held her in his arms, she couldn't help but put her hand on his waist, craving the warmth he had given her.

Lin Chen felt the coldness of her palms, and with a pang of heartache, he hugged her tighter before quickening his pace toward the nearby lounge.

The staff recognized him as their real backer, who was holding a woman in his arms. They quickly put down their items and left.

The lounge was just the two of them. Outside the large floor-to-ceiling windows, there was an endless expanse of green grass and blue sky. Lu Siqi admired the beautiful scenery before her, pulled her coat closer to her shoulders, and then, feeling a bit cold, she spoke to Lin Chen, who had been silently smoking, "Could you get me a cup of hot water?"

Hearing the gentle voice, Lin Chen seemed a little surprised, but then his eyes lit up with delight. He immediately stubbed out his cigarette, got up and walked to the water dispenser. After filling his cup, he even took a sip to test the water temperature.

"We need trending topics."

Hearing that she wanted it hot, Lin Chen quickly poured out half a cup of water and added some more hot water.

"Thank you." Lu Siqi took the water glass, took a sip under his gaze, and then looked up at him and said, "The water temperature is just right."

Knowing that the calmer she was, the more abnormal she seemed, Lin Chen took a deep breath, knelt down to look her in the eye, and tried to see her true emotions. "You can scold me, you can hit me, just don't be so gentle with me, you know? The more you do this, the less I can forgive myself."

After hearing this, Lu Siqi smiled slightly at him, holding the warm water cup in both hands. Once she felt a little warmth, she raised her right hand to stroke his tightly furrowed brows. "Don't be like this. You don't need to blame yourself too much. I know you did it all for my own good. Hua Xu told me everything. I have never resented you."

"..." At this moment, Lin Chen felt as if a thorn was stuck in his throat, and the words he had prepared in his mind could not be uttered.

But he kept telling himself: something's wrong with this woman; what she says and her smile are all fake.

But he didn't have the courage to expose it.

For the first time in his life, he felt fear within himself.

This fear stems from the woman in front of me.

Because he realized he might have already lost this woman...

"Lu Siqi..." Lin Chen placed his hands on her knees, clenching and unclenching them. He was extremely nervous, worried that he would say the wrong thing again. But after calling her name, the "thorn" in his throat seemed to pierce him deeply, so he could only lower his head in silence.

"Lin Chen." Lu Siqi called his name softly. When he looked up, she met his gaze calmly and said, "Do you know? The person I've always liked has always been Mu Sen, never you, Lin Chen."

"But the Musen I liked had already died a few days before he left."

She reached out and stroked his handsome cheek, as if she had returned to a few months ago when she ran away from home and had just arrived in Jianghong to carry out a mission. She saw Mu Sen, who had a cigarette in his mouth and a roguish air, as she walked out of the train station. "Lin Chen, thank you for giving me a dream. Now the dream has ended. Let me go. Consider it as fulfilling my wish to be with Mu Sen."

"Let me leave here with the beautiful memories of Musen, and don't ruin the good times we had."

Upon hearing this, Lin Chen understood: this woman was warning him not to make a fool of himself.

If you push her too hard, she will definitely do something extreme that she has never done before.

As for which one it was, he couldn't guess anymore.

Because he can no longer see through her.

"Can't you give me another chance?" This was the first time Lin Chen had pleaded with someone in such a humble tone, because he knew that once he let go this time, there would be no way to get close to this woman again. "Just once, just this once."

He held her hand tightly: "I swear! If I ever deceive you, Lu Siqi, again, may I die a horrible death!"

Lu Siqi let him hold her hand down without struggling to pull away, her eyes remaining calm as still water. "You always seem to be like this, never giving me any choice, always domineeringly believing that the promises you make are the best. But how is your behavior any different from how my father treated me in the past?"

"Do you know why I like Mu Sen? Because he always encourages me to be my true self."

She pulled her hand away from his and looked up at the blue sky outside the French windows: "I belong to the blue sky, and you, Lin Chen, belong to the grassland. The life I need is to soar like a bird, and the life you need is to run like a wild horse on the grassland. We will eventually return to the life we ​​yearn for and love, but Mu Sen's departure brought it a little earlier."

She looked away, then looked down at him again, and spoke her mind without hesitation: "This timing is perfect. We have no regrets, after all, we shared some wonderful memories."

……

More than two hours later, the helicopter landed on the helipad on the top floor of Shengtang International.

The November winds in the northern city were biting, stinging the face like thorns. The president of Sheng Tang International was Yan Song, Lu Yao's former comrade-in-arms.

When Lu Siqi got off the plane, the brown scarf around her neck was blown off by the wind. Before she could bend down to pick it up, Lin Chen had already picked it up and wrapped it around her neck.

"Thank you." Lu Siqi pulled her scarf up higher, almost covering half of her face, leaving only her almond-shaped eyes visible. She waved goodbye to him and said, "Go on up quickly. The people in the Special Zone will be able to detect our location soon."

Lin Chen's face was gloomy and somber; he rarely remained silent like this.

After deciding to send Lu Siqi back to Beicheng, he remained silent throughout the entire journey from the northern part of Xiaomopo to Beicheng before landing.

Standing there watching Lu Siqi's receding figure, he noticed that the woman had lost a lot of weight...

How arrogant must I have been to always think I favored her?

If it were love, how could he have ignored her feelings countless times?
If it were love, how could one act recklessly countless times?
Thinking of all this, Lin Chen pursed his lips in self-deprecation; it turned out that what the book said was right, only after truly losing something can one realize one's mistakes.

Some mistakes can be corrected and then undone.

But he also knew that no matter how much he changed, Lu Siqi would never come back to him.

At this moment, she walked forward with steady steps, without even turning her head back.

……

Five minutes later, Lu Siqi took the elevator to the first floor. As soon as the elevator doors opened, she saw Yan Song, who had been waiting for a long time, as soon as she stepped out.

According to her fourth uncle Lu Yao's seniority, she should call Yan Song "Uncle," even though they are only a few years apart.

Lu Siqi still managed to say it with some difficulty: "Uncle Yan".

"Calling me Uncle is too formal." Yan Song noticed that she didn't look well. After learning from Lin Chen's previous conversation that she had been injured in Bangnan, he had sent someone to the Special Administrative Region General Hospital to bring over an expert in this field. "I heard from Mu Sen that you were injured. I've already brought Dr. He over. Let's go over there first and have him examine your injuries to see if you need to be hospitalized."

"No need, Uncle Yan, my injury is nothing serious." To avoid showing any nervousness, Lu Siqi tried to keep her tone calm. "My mother knows I'm coming back today, and she's probably been waiting for me at home for a long time. I want to go home first."

"No need to rush, Dr. He is waiting in the lounge. Checking the injury will only take a few minutes." Thinking that she was concerned about the injury being in her abdomen, Yan Song quickly stepped forward to greet her warmly, "Don't worry, little sister, the expert I invited for you is a woman."

"Really, there's no need, Uncle Yan. I'd better go home first." After saying that, Lu Siqi walked towards the company's exit.

"Don't do that, sis! I'll have a hard time explaining myself if you do that!" Yan Song quickly followed. "I'll drive you there, and I can also take Dr. He to your house so the examination can be done right there."

"I'll just take a taxi home myself, no need to trouble you, Uncle Yan."

"No..." Seeing that she had already walked out the door and knowing that she was determined to leave, Yan Song had no choice but to call Lu Yao, who was far away in Bangnan.

As soon as the call connected, Yan Song started complaining, "This time it's not that I'm being mean, Fourth Brother, your niece is really stubborn. I followed Mu Sen's instructions and even invited doctors to the company so they could check her injuries in advance to avoid them getting too serious and delaying treatment. But your niece just won't cooperate at all."

"I'm just wondering, the female doctor examined her for her own good, so why did she treat herself like this just because she was angry with Mu Sen? What if the injury is really serious and it delays treatment?"

After listening, Lu Yao felt that something was wrong.

After asking Yan Song about Lu Siqi's specific reaction, she felt even more that Lu Siqi was acting strangely.

After ending the call, Lu Yao immediately called his wife, Wen Yan, and asked her to go to the family compound to check on Lu Siqi.

When Wen Yan arrived at the Special Economic Zone's family compound, he saw that only his second aunt, Xu Huaqing, was washing a mop. It didn't seem like anyone had come to visit. So he made an excuse that he had just come to check on things and didn't mention that Lu Siqi had returned to Beicheng.

After chatting with my second aunt for more than ten minutes, I pretended to receive a message from the company and said that I had to go back and retouch the film.

After leaving the family compound under this pretext, she immediately called Lu Yao back to explain the situation: "My second aunt didn't know that Siqi was coming back today. I stayed at my second aunt's house for almost 20 minutes, but I didn't see Siqi come back."

Lu Yao's expression instantly turned somewhat worried: "Don't tell Second Aunt Siqi that she's back yet. I'll have Yan Song investigate further to see where she went instead of coming home."
