you are my favorite dessert

Chapter 191 Unspeakable Secret [1]

"Xi'er, there are some things I have to tell you clearly."

Bao Muyan took a deep breath, and there was a hint of determination in his deep eyes.

"Mu Yan, don't say anything, I can understand. After all, it's been ten years, and it's normal for everyone to change. Do you already have someone you like?"

Zhong Xi'er pretended to be indifferent and smiled, then asked in a trembling voice.

"Yes." Bao Muyan answered frankly. "And, she is the woman I will marry in the future."

A look of disappointment suddenly flashed in Zhong Xi'er's eyes, she lowered her head and said in a low voice, "Am I still late?"

"Xi'er, I'm sorry. I've tried to make it up to you these years, but I haven't been able to find you." Bao Muyan said in a low voice.

"I don't want your compensation. You're right about that, aren't you? It's me..."

"Okay, don't mention the past anymore." Seeing that Zhong Xi'er was about to cry, Bao Muyan stopped her in time.

"If you want to stay in Los Angeles, I will arrange everything for you. Except for feelings, I can satisfy everything you want." Then, Bao Muyan added.

"Then, can I work in Bo's?" Zhong Xi'er sniffed, and when she raised her head again, an optimistic smile appeared on Qingli's face again.

Bao Muyan looked at her silently, and finally nodded: "Of course."

"Can I be your assistant?" Zhong Xier asked again.

"Listen to me, Xi'er, it's not fair to you, and I already have assistants. It's no problem for you to want to work in Bo's, but I will help you choose a position that suits you. Xi'er, you should try like other people."

Bao Muyan's words were very direct, and for a person like him, such words were already very euphemistic.

Zhong Xi'er nodded obediently, and said, "Okay, everything is under your arrangement."

"Muyan, can I meet that girl?" At this moment, Zhong Xi'er looked at Bao Muyan expectantly, with a slightly humble voice.

"forget it."

Bao Muyan squinted his eyes subconsciously, and rejected Zhong Xier's request.

"Are you worried that I will hurt her?" Zhong Xi'er's eyes turned red all of a sudden, and her tone became pitiful.

"Xie'er, you know I didn't mean that. It's just unnecessary. My guilt towards you has nothing to do with her, and I don't want her to be involved in our past. Do you understand?"

Bo Muyan patiently explained to Zhong Xier.

Zhong Xi'er smiled miserably: "It seems that you really like this girl."

"I really envy her." Zhong Xi'er sniffed, then smiled again on her face, she said very considerately: "Since you already have a lover now, then I will not continue to disturb you. But, Mu Yan , I hope you can give me some buffer time."

"After all, before this, I came here with fantasies and expectations." Zhong Xi'er's voice choked up, and she looked at Bao Muyan with misty eyes.

"I'm very sorry."

Apart from apologizing, Bao Muyan didn't know what to say.

His guilt towards Zhong Xi'er has been a knot in his heart for the past ten years.

However, he was never a saint, because of guilt, he would act against his will to give Zhong Xier love and hope.

He couldn't make it up to her in this way.

Because, he never loved Zhong Xier.

It was so ten years ago, and it will still be so ten years later.
