Chapter 78 Venus, I Won't Let You Die!(1)
“When we meet again, I don’t want to find something like that in your bag.”
Xinyou Qiao knew he was asking her to be sincere in their cooperation. And she nodded and said:
“Don’t worry. I will.”
Then a giant smile spread across Hao Nangong’s face. He said with great satisfaction: “I love to deal
with smart people, and since this is a cooperation, I’ll have to show my sincerity. Do you know why
Kerry is trying so hard to find the creator of that design?”
Xinyou shook her head. She had been perplexed by this question for a long time, and she felt excited
that she would finally get to know the answer, because the answer is the key to get near to Kerry.
Hao Nangong smiled and said: “That designer is Kerry’ s one-night stand, but he then found it hard to
forget about her. You know what I mean?”
Xinyou felt a pang of jealousy when she heard it. But she soon regained her composure, because she
realized Kerry still didn’t know that woman is Venus, and she got a plan.
“Venus, Kerry is yours for the time being, and I’ll win him over with the help of your past experiences.”
Xinyou thought to herself.
......
Venus arrived at the company early in the morning. She looked at Xinyou and found she was typing
attentively. Venus felt her heart was pierced, because Xinyou would usually greet her with a giant
smile, but now she didn’t even spare a passing glance.
Venus took a deep breath. She forced herself to calm down and focus on her work. Xinyou was typing
rapidly. Her delicate fingers were moving swiftly across the keyboard, and on the screen, a giant word
appeared: Resignation.
When she finished the letter, Xinyou sent it to Kerry without a moment’s hesitation. Then she sighed
with relief. A smile appeared on her face. Now all she had to do was to wait for Kerry’ s call. She had
planed everything she needed to say and do when she met Kerry beforehand.
Soon, Kerry called her. Xinyou answered quickly. And Kerry said: “Come to my office.”
“Fine.”
Xinyou hanged up the phone, fixed her makeup and walked into an elevator.
Venus stared after her as she left, and her face crumpled. “So, is this really the end of our friendship?”
......
Xinyou knocked the door, and walked into Kerry’ s office when he responded. Kerry raised his head
and looked at Xinyou up and down. He seemed to notice a flicker of despair from her eyes, but he
wasn’t sure whether he was right.
He put down his pen gently and asked flatly: “Why do you want to resign all of a sudden?”
Xinyou looked down because she felt guilty and she knew her eyes would betray her. Her face set, and
her hands grabbed her cloth tightly. After a while, she said quietly: “I’ll get married soon.”
Kerry froze. He got some vague feelings that he found difficult to articulate. But he was certain there
was a tinge of disappointment. He said: “Congratulations.”
Xinyou also froze. Then a tired smile flickered across her face. She said: “You know, I really don’t want
you to congratulate me.”
Kerry got confused. He asked flatly: “Why?”
Xinyou took a deep breath, as if saying it was a decision she finally made. “I didn’t want to say it. You
have already got married with Venus, and what’s the point of bringing up what happened that day at the
hotel.”
Kerry’ s face changed. He stood up slowly, and because of the strong sunlight behind him, his facial
expression was hard to discern, He said in a shocked tone: “Hotel?”
Xinyou bit her lips and said: “That night not only did I lose my design, I lost something else that is very
valuable to me. What happened that night was a beautiful memory, and then Nangong told me you
were looking for me.” There was pain in her tone.
Kerry stared at her eyes and walked slowly towards her. He asked: “Do you still remember the number
of the room?”
Xinyou thought about it and answered: “CK International Hotel. Room 1026.”
The moment she finished, Kerry rushed to her and embraced her tightly. Xinyou found his heart was
beating violently, and his body smelt like cigarettes, Her heart was also sinking slowly.
