It was unusually quiet in the office. If I didn't speak, he wouldn't speak. The two of them remained silent. Even if I didn't speak, Harrison would never open his mouth.
"Is it that hard to answer?" I asked with a wry smile.
"It's not good for you to know something too clearly. As for the relationship between me and Bai die, you can rest assured that there won't be anything between us in the future." Harrison paused when he spoke, and then said it very clearly, as if he was worried that I couldn't understand it.
In the end, he turned around and left. Finally, he closed the half-open office door.
Looking at the glass door that stopped after shaking a few times, I had mixed feelings in my heart. Only I knew how hard it was.
Why didn't I see that there was something fishy between Bai die and Harrison? Wasn't they friends? Hadn't Bai Jie just returned from abroad? Could it be that they had known each other before, or had a special relationship before she went abroad?
I muttered the word "Bai Jie" in my mouth. Suddenly, a name flashed through my mind, and I suddenly had a decision.
Louie went abroad on the spur of the moment, so the farewell party was canceled. But others could not see him off, but I certainly couldn't.
"I'm eating here to say goodbye to you. You don't mind, do you?" I looked at the food in front of me and said with embarrassment.
Louie pursed his lips and smiled. "I'm very happy that you can sit down and have dinner with me."
"It's up to you." I ignored this topic and quickly let him eat first. "The news of you going abroad is in a hurry, so I can't take you to have a good meal. I can only come to the small restaurant next to this company to do some work."
"I don't think so," Louie raised his eyebrows and said.
To be honest, I haven't seen Louie with a smile on his face for a long time. I don't know when our relationship became more and more awkward and strange, just like today's meal was polite.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but sigh.
"What's wrong? Do you have something on your mind?" Louie stopped picking up the food and asked with a slight frown.
I quickly shook my head and pretended to eat as if nothing had happened. "Nothing happened. I just remembered that I couldn't see you at the company in the future, so I was a little emotional."
I didn't know if I was wrong, but I felt that Louie seemed to be relieved. Then he said to me, "On account of your concern for me, I will try my best to come back early."
Hearing this, I nodded silently. I believed that the two of us were clearer than anyone else. Harrison was the only one who could make him go abroad. The reason why Harrison arranged for him to go abroad was that I didn't have anything else.
To put it bluntly, I was just a sinner. I didn't grow into a peerless beauty, but I became a disaster for no reason.
Thinking of this, I lost my appetite. I put down my bowl and chopsticks, took a sip of water, and stopped eating.
"If you have something on your mind, you can tell me. Although I am going abroad, I don't want to leave immediately." Louie put down his bowl and chopsticks and wiped his mouth with a tissue.
I looked at him and wanted to say something, but I didn’t know what to say.
I had planned well when I was in the office just now, but as soon as I came out, my mouth seemed to be sealed, and I couldn't say a complete sentence.
After an unknown period of time, Louie took the initiative to ask, "Do you want to ask if I know Bai Jie?"
