Chapter 670 - Heart Hurts so Much
“Eh, is that Assistant Li from Imperial Palace?”
Li Yuanhang and Xiao Lingyu arranged to meet at the coffee shop.
This coffee shop was a high-end leisure place in the capital. The people who came here were usually those with status.
Li Yuanhang was a famous elite, so many people knew him. When he was in the private booth, the other customers didn’t notice him. However, when he stood up and came out, his tall and handsome figurine was immediately noticed and recognized.
“That is assistant Li. Who is the woman beside him? Is she his girlfriend?”
“This woman is really beautiful.”
“I’ve never heard of Special Assistant Li having a girlfriend. Where did this girlfriend come from?”
“This is his private matter. How would we know when he has a girlfriend?”
“I’m just asking. To be honest, I have a sister who said she likes assistant Li and asked me to help introduce her. Now that she has a girlfriend, how am I supposed to introduce her?”
“What’s the big deal? I don’t see a ring on his finger yet. Everyone has a fair chance.”
“Speaking of which, that woman is very beautiful. Why haven’t I seen her in the capital before? If she is Li Yuanhang’s girlfriend, we should have known about her.”
“That’s true. This woman seems to have appeared out of nowhere. Could it be that Li Yuanhang is in a long-distance relationship? His girlfriend only comes over occasionally.”
“That’s possible!”
...
Li Yuanhang and Xiao Lingyu did not know that after they left, there would be so many people talking about them.
They rushed to the airport.
Xiao Lingyu looked at the time and was a little anxious. She said, “The plane leaves at half-past six. There are only twenty minutes left. Can we make it?”
Li Yuanhang was not sure either. He said, “If the traffic is not congested, we should be able to make it.”
However, just as he finished speaking, a traffic announcement came from the radio. A car accident happened on the north side of the Airport Road, causing a traffic jam.
Li Yuanhang, “...”
Xiao Lingyu, “...”
Xiao Lingyu asked anxiously, “Yuanhang, is there any other route to get to the airport?”
Li Yuanhang said helplessly, “Lingyu, this route is the closest. But it seems like we have to take a detour.”
“How long will this detour take?”
“About 20 to 30 minutes,” Li Yuanhang said and then comforted her, “Don’t worry, my driving skills are top-notch. I will drive as fast as I can. If there are no accidents, we will be there in 20 minutes.”
Xiao Lingyu nodded and said, “Okay!”
Sitting in the passenger seat, she kept looking forward.
25 minutes later, when Li Yuanhang and Xiao Lingyu arrived at the International Airport, they heard the announcement, “Dear passengers, the flight to Country M is departing soon... Please enter...”
“Where are they?” Xiao Lingyu asked urgently.
Situ Xing and Gong Tianhao would have used the VIP check-in channel.
Li Yuanhang said, “Wait, let me make a call.”
Li Yuanhang called Situ Xing.
“Young Master Situ, don’t rush in with Tianhao. Slow down. I brought someone to send them off.”
Situ Xing understood easily. He nodded and replied, “Okay!”
Since they were using the VIP channel, they didn’t need to queue up like normal travelers.
After hanging up, Li Yuanhang told Xiao Lingyu, “Come, this way!”
Gong Tianhao looked at Situ Xing, who kept looking at his watch. He asked curiously, “Ol Seven, we’re about to board the plane. Why do you keep looking at the time?”
Situ Xing laughed embarrassedly and said, “Hehe, it’s nothing. I’m just checking the time to see how much longer we have before we can board the plane.”
Gong Tianhao, “...” Who is he lying to? He is not a three-year-old who had never been on a plane before.
Gong Tianhao’s sharp eyes stared at him. Situ Xing felt his scalp go numb from his stare. He had no choice but to admit, “Li Yuanhang said he had brought someone to send us off.”
“Who is it?” Gong Tianhao asked sharply.
“It’s your wife!” Situ Xing said.
Gong Tianhao immediately carried his suitcase and turned around to walk towards the entrance. However, if one looked carefully, his footsteps clearly slowed down.
Situ Xing, “...” Such a tsundere. Love can really change a person.
However, when Li Yuanhang and Xiao Lingyu rushed over, another small accident happened.
Li Yuanhang accidentally bumped into an old man, and the old man pulled him and refused to let him go.
Then, the old man’s family quickly surrounded Li Yuanhang. They wanted compensation. If they refused to pay 30,000 RMB, they would not let him go.
historical
They had met a scammer.
Li Yuanhang helplessly stayed behind while Xiao Lingyu continued to walk forward.
However, because she was not familiar with the airport, she had wasted some time finding the right direction.
When she arrived, she only saw the man who was leaving.
At the outer railing, she anxiously shouted, “Gong Tianhao!”
When Gong Tianhao heard a woman’s voice, he paused for a moment but did not turn around. Instead, he continued walking forward.
Situ Xing looked at Xiao Lingyu and then at the hesitant Gong Tianhao. He shook his head and said helplessly, “Why is God so unfair?” They were clearly lovers, so why did they have to go through this trial?
Situ Xing turned back to greet Xiao Lingyu, “Sister-in-law, you’re here.”
Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, “Yes.” But her eyes were fixed on the figure who didn’t stop moving away from her.
Situ Xing explained on behalf of Gong Tianhao, “Sister-in-law, don’t blame boss. Boss is...”
Xiao Lingyu waved her hand and said, “Thank you. It’s okay. I understand. You should hurry, or you’d miss the plane!”
Situ Xing, “...”
Situ Xing nodded and said, “Okay, then sister-in-law, let’s meet again when we get back!”
Xiao Lingyu replied, “Okay!” They still had plenty of time in the future.
Situ Xing jogged a few steps to catch up with Gong Tianhao. Then, he asked curiously, “Boss, are you really not going to greet sister-in-law?”
“Hmph!” Gong Tianhao snorted coldly.
“...” Situ Xing continued, “You should at least turn around to say hello to her. Look, she has purposely rushed here to send you off.”
Gong Tianhao’s sharp eyes shot at Situ Xing coldly and then said coldly, “Shush!”
Situ Xing covered his mouth reflexively and said, “Alright, alright.”
Xiao Lingyu looked at Gong Tianhao’s receding figure with disappointment and heartache.
She knew that Gong Tianhao had forgotten her.
However, when he didn’t even want to turn around to see her, her heart broke.
Once, he held her in his hands and loved her. He protected her and didn’t let her suffer any grievances.
Now, he didn’t even want to see her.
‘Tianhao, I know I’ve once said that I’d pursue you after you’ve forgotten about me. But when I truly face this moment, my heart is so painful.
‘Only now did I realize that I simply cannot accept the fact that you have forgotten about me. Tianhao, you’ve spoiled me too much.
‘I was supposed to be the one who pursued you this time, but when I face this man who acts like a stranger around me, my heart hurts so bad.
‘I really wanted the Gong Tianhao who spoiled me to return.’
Xiao Lingyu stood outside the guardrail and looked at the VIP channel. She could not help but shed tears.
At this moment, a group of media reporters suddenly swarmed over and quickly surrounded Xiao Lingyu.
“Miss, you’ve just shouted for Gong Tianhao, haven’t you?”
“Miss, who are you to Gong Tianhao? What is the relationship between the two of you?”
...
When Li Yuanhang finished dealing with the scammer, he saw many reporters surrounding Xiao Lingyu. His face immediately turned black.
He immediately squeezed in and shielded Xiao Lingyu behind him.
Before he could speak, a reporter exclaimed, “Wait, that is Imperial Palace Assistant CEO, Li Yuanhang!
