Over the mountain is the sea

Chapter 30 Love, Precarious in the Competition ([-])
Even though she was already sitting in the brightly lit box, Yi Nan was still in a daze and hesitated whether she shouldn't have come.However, things in this world always seem to follow the rule of "one thing descends one thing". She is not clear who she hit the robbery, but if Liang Zhongming is her robbery, she doesn't feel that at all. It was exaggerated, not to mention that his appearance shocked her so much that she was completely irresistible - he didn't go to the company's dinner party, but he was waiting here for her!
Liang Zhongming on the opposite side was still personable, calm and determined, but she was the only one who was so nervous that she couldn't hold herself back, and she couldn't even keep a confident smile on her face.

From the moment she foolishly presented her heart in front of him without reservation, she had already lost any negotiating capital.

Liang Zhongming poured her a cup of tea, and then opened his mouth gently, "I was unable to get away from something a while ago, and I haven't been able to come here. How are you?" His tone was calm.

Yi Nan stared at the teacup in his hand with a stiff face, speechless, but he couldn't hide his panic and alertness on his stubborn face. Liang Zhongming saw it in his eyes, felt pity spontaneously, and sighed softly.

Originally, he had prepared a lot of tactful excuses, but seeing Yi Nan in front of him, he suddenly didn't want to play any tricks with her, those were used to deal with cunning opponents in the business field, but Yi Nan obviously didn't.

"Yi Nan, do you understand me?" He asked in a low voice.

Yi Nan's heart trembled, he finally got to the point, but for herself, the drafts she typed before were actually useless, and she couldn't answer such a simple question from him.

Yeah, does she know him?

She had known him for two years, from the beginning she had a good feeling for him and then she couldn't help overstepping the rules. She always saw Liang Zhongming like this: polite, kind, tolerant of her, and even pampered her.

But, is the Liang Zhongming she saw the real one?

Seeing that she was hesitant to answer, Liang Zhongming chuckled, "Look, you don't even know what kind of person I am, so how could you really like me?"

Yi Nan's face suddenly turned red. This was the first time he faced this embarrassing question directly, but she was not as flustered as before, but gradually calmed down. She understood that only by talking to him thoroughly, could she "heal" "Hope.

So, she put away her anger and planned to answer every question he asked seriously.

"You...are a good person." She thought over and over again, and said truthfully.

Liang Zhongming could only smile wryly. This was the saddest evaluation he had heard so far. "Good man" in another world means cowardice and incompetence. In his opinion, this is definitely not a "compliment" to him.

He took a deep breath and said calmly: "I have been involved in the business world since I was 24 years old, and it has been more than ten years now. During this period, there have been successes and failures; I'm not really a good person."

"No!" Yinan blurted out to retort, just because she still remembered what he said to Hei Fengyi in the car that night, "Don't embarrass a girl!"

If he is not a good person, how can he say such a thing? !

Liang Zhongming stared at her steadfastly, gradually put away his smile, straightened his back, and leaned back in the chair.His gaze was not harsh, but it was as deep as the sea. No matter how hard you tried to figure it out, you couldn't understand what was hidden there. Under such gaze, Yi Nan's heartbeat started to speed up again. She tried her best to control her panic, and her lips The corners are squeezed tightly.

He shook his head at Yi Nan, "No, I'm not as good as you think. In fact, to you, I'm nothing but a phantom."

"Phantom?" Yi Nan stared at him in bewilderment.

Liang Zhongming turned his face away, stopped looking at her, but continued to speak slowly: "Yi Nan, you are just too lonely. Since you were young, no one has been by your side to listen to you. Even if your grandparents are willing, They won't read your mind either. And you just met me, so you get a patient audience, that's all."

Yi Nan listened in astonishment, it seemed to make sense, but it seemed that something was wrong. Could it be that she couldn't even grasp her own feelings, did she need someone to point her out?

She thought about it carefully, then raised her face, and firmly denied, "No, it's not what you said, I really... like you." After speaking, her voice dropped a little because she was shy, but she I don't like his way of referring to a deer as a horse, and I don't want to go against my own will, even if it is a mistake for her to fall in love with him.

He kept his head sideways, so Yi Nan couldn't catch the slight twitch between Liang Zhongming's eyebrows when she categorically denied it.

He quickly turned his face and looked at her calmly, "I can understand that you have a crush on me, but it has nothing to do with the kind of feelings you mentioned... Yinan, you are still young and don't understand 'love' 'What exactly is it, you will understand when you really meet one day."

Yi Nan faced him, and said in a daze: "I know that I have no possibility with you, but this does not prevent me from having feelings for you, I just, just..." She tried her best to control her heart that was about to come out and was beating wildly , but persistently wanted to pour out the last sentence, "I want to know, are you treating me..."

Once the words that had been lingering in her heart for a long time came to her lips, she realized how difficult it was to say them easily. At this moment, she couldn't tell what answer she wanted to get. What is the answer, the result is doomed - as she herself said, there is no possibility between them.

At this moment, she suddenly figured it out out of nowhere, so that difficult question was finally swallowed by her just before the door.

"I just want to know, in your eyes... am I ridiculous?"

This is a question that also makes her painful and embarrassing. The sincerity delivered will not get an equal response, and no girl can act as if nothing happened after that.

Liang Zhongming's eyes gradually poured tenderness into her face, "I never thought you were ridiculous... If possible, I also hope to be as young as you, to go back to the time when I just left school..."

Knowing that this was impossible, his eyes still showed yearning, the tenderness in his heart spread silently like the night, even his eyes were exaggerated.

Looking at Liang Zhongming at this moment, Yi Nan suddenly felt a wave of despair. Not only did she fail to use this meeting to completely shatter the thoughts in her heart, but also because she found another truth in his face—— What fascinates her the most is the look on his face, but she knows so clearly that that kind of nostalgia does not belong to her. Through her, what he sees is another scene of that year, even if he doesn't say it, Yi Nan could roughly guess what was going on.

"I'm already...not qualified." He finally murmured.

Yi Nan suddenly withdrew his gaze, and the moment he lowered his head, the corners of his eyes were quietly moistened.

There was a deep sigh in my heart, so be it.

This is also an answer, even if it is not as direct as she expected, but it leads to the same goal by different routes.

Yi Nan is a girl who can afford to let go, what's more, to her, Liang Zhongming is just a moon in the water, a flower in the mirror, and it will be a matter of time before she lets go.

The heart still hurts, but it is no longer the torment of nothing like before. When the pain reaches the bottom, it will gradually get better, she believes.

When she looked up again, she finally regained her former bright smile, not the brilliant light at noon, but like the blunt red sun rising after the rain, still stained with crystal and moisture, like a gentle touch miserable.

Liang Zhongming looked at her in a daze, and felt that she was strange.
