Qin Huai didnt receive a reply from Zhao Youlin for a long time, but he wasnt in a hurry. He asked with a smile, What do you think?

Should she accept? Zhao Youlin was in a dilemma.

After thinking for a long time, Zhao Youlin finally made a decision. All of you, out. Wait for me in the lounge outside. Ill talk to Mr. Qin alone.

Zhao Youlin gritted her teeth when she said the last sentence. It was clear how reluctant she was.

Forget it. Lets talk alone then. This was her territory. Could this b.a.s.t.a.r.d eat her up?

They could talk more, but the doc.u.ments in his hands were not easily accessible. This could be known just by looking at the progress the men she hired made, compared to him.

Perhaps, given time, they could have borne fruit, but that meant more time, and even that was simply a possibility, unlike the certainty this man had in his hands. It would only be a waste of more energy and time.

Zhao Youlin did not think that she had that much patience, nor did she have that much energy and time.

The few of them exchanged looks, but they did not dare to ask any more questions. They bowed and left, leaving the two of them alone.

Zhao Youlin watched the few of them leave. She turned around and walked to the guest table next to the office and sat down. She took the lead and said, They are all gone. Didnt you want to talk to me? Why arent you saying anything?

Qin Huai glanced at Zhao Youlin, and his eyes flickered. He walked over to the sofa opposite Zhao Youlin and sat down. He smiled and said, Actually, theres nothing special. Its just that I havent seen you for a long time. Last time, because of my impulsiveness, we parted on bad terms. Afterward, Ive

always wanted to apologize to you in person, but I never had the chance.

Zhao Youlin thought that Qin Huai would question her like last time, but she didnt expect him to really bring up the past to apologize to her.

Did Qin Huai really understand what she had said before, or did he want to play hard to get and let her lower her guard first, then press her step by step?

Zhao Youlin didnt have much confidence in herself, so she didnt dare to relax too much. She cleared her throat. She said in a deep voice, If its about that matter, you dont have to. It has faded with time. Moreover, there was something wrong with me that day. However, I still have to remind you that no

one likes others to think of themselves as anyone other than themselves. I dont know what grudges you had with Officer Zhao when she was alive, but since shes already gone, its time to let the dead rest. If you had transferred his displeasure and resentment toward Officer Zhao to me just because we

share the same name, then Im very sorry. Im not here to roleplay.

Qin Huai was stunned again. Looking at Zhao Youlins stern expression, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, he said bitterly, You are right. I really shouldnt be too obsessed with the past. In this world, everyone is an independent individual. If shes gone, shes gone. There wont be a second her. It

was indeed rude of me to act that way. However, theres one thing you were wrong about. I dont have any grudges with her. The reason why I was so impulsive before was entirely because

Zhao Youlin raised her eyebrows and asked tentatively, Because of what?

After that day, Zhao Youlin had also thought about what kind of relations.h.i.+p she had with Qin Huai in her previous life. However, after thinking for a long time, she still could not come up with a reason.

However, in the end, she was very sure that she did not know Qin Huai at all in her previous life, let alone have any relations.h.i.+p with him.

Then, the only explanation was that this person might be related to the backstabbing in her last mission.

Back then, she had grown suspicious of him. But looking at Qin Huais att.i.tude today, it didnt seem like it.

How did I provoke this guy before?! Why dont I have any impression of it at all?!

Qin Huai didnt know that Zhao Youlin was feeling conflicted at this moment. He smiled bitterly. Because I was too excited. I admit that there were a few moments when I really thought you were her, so I was a little excited.

Uh excited? Zhao Youlins expression froze for a moment. She had a vague guess in her heart, but she felt that this was simply not possible. She did not want to believe it, so she asked carefully, Forgive me for being presumptuous, but you and Officer Zhao What was your relations.h.i.+p?

What relations.h.i.+p? Qin Huai did not notice Zhao Youlins strange behavior. He tumed his head to look at the scenery outside the French window and said faintly, Strictly speaking, I dont have any relations.h.i.+p with her.

Zhao Youlin heaved a sigh of relief. Just as she was about to speak, Qin Huai added, If I really have to say it, it can only be considered my one-sided love for her.

Zhao Youlin was speechless. Sir, can you not breathe heavily when you speak? No, wait. What did he just say? He said that he likes me?! The me from my previous life!

Zhao Youlin looked as if she had been struck by lightning as she stared blankly at Qin Huai.

Qin Huai seemed to have expected Zhao Youlins reaction. He was not surprised, but the smile on his face only grew bitter.

Zhao Youlin took a long time to recover. She looked at Qin Huais face, which was obviously wracked with pain, but had to force himself to smile.

Officer Zhao does she know that you like her?

Qin Huai smiled bitterly. No. In fact, she probably doesnt even know who Iam.

A hint of understanding flashed across Zhao Youlins eyes. Sure enough, her memory was not wrong, She had never met the person in front of her in her previous life. But in that case, how did this person fall in love with her?

As if he understood the confusion in Zhao Youlins eyes, Qin Huai smiled and asked in a low voice, Ms. Zhao, are you interested in hearing about me and her?

Zhao Youlin could not help but laugh. If I said I wasnt interested, would you not say it?

The expression on Qin Huais face suddenly froze. He lowered his head in disappointment, looking pitiful, as if he had been cruelly abandoned.

Zhao Youlin could not bear to see him like this. After all, she was indeed the culprit that made him so depressed. She hesitated for a moment, cleverly changed the topic, and said, However, Iam more than willing to lend an ear. After all, you just said that you wanted to talk to me. In that case, its okay to.

chat a little longer. After all, what you have is indeed very important to me..
