Chapter 287 Thank you for your trust

e you are selfish! Just like that woman from back then!"All these years, I thought you'd change. Seems I overestimated you.After all, you were born from that selfish and self-serving woman. You still...Jian Mo Bai gritted his teeth and looked at Jian Tong: "Don't worry! I will!" He said, "I will definitely live a good life."

She smiled coldly, “Don’t regret it!”

Jian Tong gazed at the resolute disappearing figure until it was no longer visible. With great effort, she glanced around at the people: "It's alright, everyone go back to what you were doing." 。“ The people under his command immediately scattered like birds and beasts. 。Turning around, he saw the little secretary who had burned her hand kneeling on the ground picking up the pieces. 。"Don't pick at it anymore, take half a day off and go to the hospital to get your burned hand bandaged." 。"I'll call the cleaning lady..." Jian Tong said, then thought for a moment. "Never mind, I won't bother calling her." 。Go to the hospital. 。"

The little secretary looked at Jian Tong gratefully, saying over and over again: "Thank you, Mr. Jian, thank you, thank you."

This honest and earnest manner involuntarily softened the stiffness on Jian Tong's face, "Go ahead, be careful on the road. Don't rush because of time. Just tell the HR department that I personally approved your leave." 。“That little secretary turned and said, "Mr. Jian, you're such a kind person, unlike what others say..." 。“

After finishing her words, she covered her mouth and looked remorseful……She thought to herself, wouldn’t this make the boss think she was gossiping about him behind his back She cautiously glanced at Jian Tong in front of her, only to find that the latter seemed to not have heard her words at all. He lightly smiled and waved at her: “Go ahead quickly” >>> 。"Well!" A sense of relief washed over her, and a bright smile lit up her doll-like face. "Thank you, Mr. Jian," 。Even his speech became light and bright. 。Jian Tong's gaze swept across that youthful, invincible face, and in his eyes, there was an added warmth of a senior. 。Only then did I realize that I had grown old little by little in those years of entanglement. 。All was silent around, the hallway stood empty, a glance revealed no one, the familiar fatigue once again surged over her, but she couldn't let herself relax yet—she still had guests. 。"Mr. Kane, I'm so sorry to have shown you this." 。She said apologetically, politely but distantly. 。Kane Ferocchi's eyes dimmed upon hearing this... He still couldn't get close to herHe looked at the woman before him again, her polite but distant demeanor, her just-right smile, appearing gentle yet subtly aloof... He missed the her from three years ago. 。 Regarding the cooperation, Mr. Caine, I've just shared Jiani's opinion with you. You may want to consider it: after adding these points, the cooperation will benefit both of us twofold. 。In Kane's eyes, there was increasing disappointment... He didn't want to hear this stale work talk, he... couldn't they just chat about family matters, catch up with each other "That one just now, was the eldest son of the Jian family, right" 。“Then that would be Jian Jia’s eldest son. The other party had already proactively mentioned his identity just now. Cain wanted to say: “Jian Mo Bai, I’ve heard of him. He got leukemia a while back” Although he was asking Jian Tong, his tone was declarative.” 。In the circles of S City, who doesn't know about the huge upheaval that has happened to the Jian family recently Including Jian Mobai getting an incurable disease. 。Also includes Jian Shi Yi Zhu 。Jian Tong didn't respond, she lowered her eyes and remained silent, listening gently. 。Kai'an Fellouch naturally noticed her reaction, a hint of bitterness at the corner of his mouth... She was really smart. 。Silence is a rejection of this topic's conversation. 。"Little one," he suddenly reached out and grasped Jian Tong's hand, "Little one, no matter what you say, I believe you" 。Kane spoke with utmost gravity and solemnity. 。

Jian Tong did not immediately struggle free from the other's grasp. Her gaze fell downward, inch by inch, resting on the hand that was held captive. She remained still and silent, so quiet that even her breathing could be heard.

All of a sudden, silently and soundlessly, she gently raised the corner of her lips into a faint smile. She looked up, her clear eyes betraying not a single hint of emotion, neither joy nor sorrow, only those eyes, bright and clear: "Thank you" 。“ To the point, clean and crisp. ” 。Not even a single superfluous word. 。

But this made Kane, who was facing her, his handsome face gradually becoming serious. He gripped her hand tighter, as if something in his palm was about to fly away. A strange sense of panic filled his heart. All he wanted was to hold onto the thing in his palm with even more force.

Jian Tong frowned slightly... it hurt, he was too forceful. 。Her palm was gripped so painfully, yet she didn't resist with force, nor did she try to pull away. 。not even a cry of "pain" 。There's no need, is thereA hint of self-deprecation in my heart. 。Her eyes were filled with pity, whether looking at Kaine Ferrocchi opposite her, or pitying herself. 。Really, Kane Ferrock was tall, and foreigners had bigger skeletons. The tall Kane Ferrock made her feel small and in need of protection... but that was just an illusion. 。She tilted her head back, a comfortable smile spreading across her face. "Mr. Kane," she said, "thank you for your trust." 。Her voice, light and quick but devoid of any extra emotion. 。Kane's palm unconsciously clenched again. The strange emotions in his heart were increasing, so many that even he couldn't explain them. Why was he feeling so restless and agitated right now 。He clasped the woman's hand in his, squeezing it tighter and tighter, but the more he squeezed, the emptier he felt inside. 。It seems, it appears, there really is something, that we can no longer reach. 。No... He suddenly let go. 。His face turned cold: "I will seriously consider the plan General Jian mentioned. I have other things to attend to today, so excuse me first." 。Without waiting for Jian Tong's reply, he had already lifted his foot and strode away. 。That back disappeared quickly, as if fleeing in panic. 。Jian Tong watched that figure disappear, lowered her head to look at her hand which had already been clenched so tightly it was red, the scorching heat still lingering in her palm. Then she looked up again, and at the end of the corridor, there was no one left. 。Suddenly, a slight smile curved her lips: "Thank you for your trust" 。But, there is no longer a need for 。Turning, she walked towards Kane's departing direction, the other end of the corridor, taking slow, measured steps. 。There, is the bathroom on this floor. 。She walked slowly into the restroom, familiarly turning into the cubicle at the end of the room. She gently pulled open the door and took out a mop, rag, bucket, and broom from inside. 。Every trade has its own specializations—three years ago, she was a cleaning lady. 。She retrieved the cleaning supplies from the storage compartment. She slowly filled a bucket with water, carrying it with one arm while a rag hung from her other. In her remaining hand, she held both a broom and a mop, stepping out of the bathroom and down the silent hallway, limping along. 。She walked very slowly, and was not in a hurry. 。She walked until she reached her office door. She set the bucket down, crouched, and painstakingly began to clean up the shards of glass on the floor, as well as the puddles of water. 。you want to leave here, or do you want to leave me"His fists clenched, his temples throbbing with barely contained rage. He suppressed his voice, trying to hold back the impotent fury that threatened...
