The matter was solved unexpectedly smoothly. I had been thinking about hiding something that I didn't want everyone to look down on, but it turned out to be so easy. And my colleagues didn't treat me differently because of my miserable divorce.
Everything seemed to have never happened. It was so calm that it couldn't be any more calm. This was something that I didn't expect, and it was also an unexpected surprise.
"It's different from my relaxed state. I believe Liu Qian must be feeling very uncomfortable now." Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable.
Thinking back to the days when Liu Qian and I had always regarded her as a sister, I did my best to treat her as a sister, but we really didn't have the fate to be sisters for a long time, so we made it to this point. But it was also good, at least I could have a period of peace and quiet.
Before getting off work, Boss Liu specially asked me to go into the office. He just asked me when I was with Harrison and why I didn't tell him. If he knew that so many things would happen in the middle, he wouldn't let me suffer, and so on.
I listened with inexplicable disgust, but I kept a smile on my face. After a long time, I asked, "Boss Liu, I haven't submitted the company's report yet. Do you need me to hand it in later?"
Just as Mr. Liu was about to speak, he thought of something and looked at the time again. "It's time to get off work. I'll hand it over at work tomorrow. You don't have to worry so much under my care. Don't worry."
Mr. Liu smiled at me, and so did I.
I stayed in the office for nearly half an hour before I came out. After closing the office door, I took a deep breath and finally felt relieved.
My heart is in a mess. I don't know what life will be like in the future. It's a good thing to announce the relationship between Harrison
and me in such a big way. Is it a bad thing or a bad thing? Is it useless for me to worry about it fora longtime?
"It's different from the past. You can slack off openly at work. Sister Chelsea really knows how to wait for the right time."
A voice came into my ears. I knew it was Liu Qian without looking at her. I turned around and was about to leave, but was interrupted by her voice. "Do you think you can be with Harrison without any hindrance and live a long life?"
I stopped and stood where I was without saying a word.
"As your former sister, I still want to give you a piece of advice."
Liu Qian's voice slowly approached. In the end, she stopped in front of me with a smile.
"But I don't want to hear it," I said lightly.
As soon as she said that, Liu Qian's face changed. She bit her lip and sneered at me, "Whether I want to hear it or not, I have to say what I should say. If you want to continue to live with Harrison like this, it's absolutely impossible!"
Liu Qian spoke firmly, but I acted as if I didn't hear her.
"You have no reaction at all? Are you not angry, not wronged, and not angry?" Liu Qian asked incredulously. She probably did not expect me to be so calm.
As if I had heard a joke, I chuckled and said, "If I cared, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been so close to him. Is this what you and I know?"
She didn't want to hear Liu Qian continue, and knew that she wouldn't have any good words to say later. After that, she walked past her and left directly, no matter what she thought in her heart.
After packing up my things and getting off work, I suddenly remembered Louie. Thinking about it carefully, I didn't seem to see him for a whole day. I didn't know what to do. I subconsciously wanted to make a phone call and ask. When I was about to call him, Harrison's words rang in my mind, "It depends on your performance in the future."
I lowered my head and looked at the shining screen. After hesitating for a while, I put the phone back.
Until I got into the elevator, my mind was still in a mess. I thought of Harrison's words, Louie's sudden disappearance, and all kinds of people who got along with him. All these scenes kept replaying in my mind like movies.
Since Louie and I met each other, he had helped me more than once. He always accompanied me when I was lost, depressed, and sad. Even if I said later that I would not be with him, he said that it was good to be a friend.
"Chelsea."
