Reborn Aristocrat: Oppressing

“It’s impossible to date her. Is it possible to date me?”Wen Yan asked him.

Zhai an fell silent again.

It was always silence.

Wen Yan was already used to it. She opened the door and walked out first.

She never got an answer from Xin an.

She actually knew from the beginning why Zhai an agreed to date her. But now, she seemed to know more deeply that they were just competing on whose patience was better.

She could not compete with him.

Zhai an looked at Wen Yan’s back.

Yes.

It was impossible to date Gu Xin.

It was also impossible to date Wen Yan.

He quickly changed into his own clothes and returned to his office chair.

He really could not deal with work at the moment. His hand that was holding the pen was still trembling slightly at that moment.

His past experiences were even more bloody than being trapped in an elevator. At that time, he also had a fear of death. After so many years and many experiences, he thought that he had already gotten used to it. He did not expect to encounter this now, he still had a lingering fear. However, he knew that this lingering fear did not come from his fear of death. Instead, it came from Gu Xin being buried with him..

He put down his pen, took a deep breath, and took a sip of the coffee that Wen Yan had brewed.

The slightly hot coffee stimulated his throat. At that moment, he calmed down a little.

In his previous life, Lu man had said that Gu Xin had committed suicide.

It was all thanks to Zhai Yi.

In this life..

In this life, it would never happen again!

He was trying his best to recover.

At this moment, the phone rang.

He looked at the incoming call and picked it up. “Mom.”

“I heard that you were trapped in the elevator.”

“I’m fine now.”

“I know. Otherwise, would I be talking to a Ghost?”It was obvious that there was some anger in Zhai an’s voice.

Zhai an smiled. “Mom, it was just an accident.”

“Don’t lie to me.”

“It really was just an accident.”

“Zhai an, I don’t have many family members. Other than your two cousins, there’s only you. I don’t Wish For You to grow up, and what you gave me was a silver lining.”

“I know.”

“You always use this sentence to brush me off,”Wen Qing said. “But I don’t know how many times I can hear you say that.”

“Mom, you have never been so calculative.”

“I will grow old too,”said Wen Qing word by word. “When you grow old, the thing you are most afraid of is losing your loved ones.”

Zhai an was a little silent.

“I won’t say anything else. You can think about it yourself.”

The call ended abruptly.

His mother had never been stupid.

The living environment since she was young had trained her to be more insightful than the average person. Moreover, her mother had gone through the same cruel training as them when she was young.

He put down the phone.

His mother was right.

He could not allow such things to happen again and again.

..

Zhai Yi drove Gu Xin back.

Gu Xin passed the documents to the driver and asked him to bring them back first.

Both of them were quiet in the car.

Zhai Yi drove and held Gu Xin’s hand. “Are you still afraid?”

“A little,”Gu Xin admitted.

“It’s all in the past. This won’t happen again.”

“Yes.”Gu Xin let out a laugh. “If such an accident happens again, I don’t know how unlucky I will be.”

Zhai Yi smiled as well.

The two of them chatted for a while before Zhai Yi sent Gu Xin home.
