Chapter 441 As Close as Fate (1)

Cheng Qingcong was extremely busy today. It was already three hours later when she saw Song Qingchun's text message.

At that time, she happened to have two urgent contracts in hand that needed Su Zhinian's signature, so before going to the general manager's office, she took the elevator to the first floor and took the things Song Qingchun asked her to hand over to Su Zhinian.

As usual, Cheng Qingcong knocked on the door three times and waited until Su Zhinian's calm voice came from inside before pushing the door open and entering.

Su Zhinian was busy working on the computer. Cheng Qingcong walked into the office softly and stood in front of the desk holding the documents without making a sound. She waited until he stopped typing on the keyboard and then reminded: "Mr. Su , your signature is required."

Su Zhinian nodded lightly, as if he was deep in thought. After a while, he quickly tapped on the keyboard a few more times, then pressed the Enter key before reaching out to Cheng Qingcong.

Cheng Qingcong hurriedly handed over the documents.

Su Zhinian lowered his eyes and looked through it in a hurry. After making sure there was nothing wrong, he quickly signed his name, pushed the document in front of Cheng Qingcong with two fingers, and then looked at the computer again.

When he was about to continue typing, the corner of his eye caught sight of Cheng Qingcong still standing in front of his desk. He frowned slightly and glanced at her.

When Cheng Qingcong saw him looking at her, she immediately handed over an envelope she was holding in her hands: "Mr. Su, this is what Miss Song asked me to deliver to you."

Su Zhinian's expression visibly stiffened, and he stared motionlessly at the envelope in Cheng Qingcong's hand for a long time before gently blinking his eyes. After about ten seconds, he tapped the table and turned his head. He looked at the computer.

Cheng Qingcong followed his instructions, put down the envelope, and then left quietly holding the document.

When she closed the office door, she glanced inside and found that Su Zhinian, who was facing the computer, had picked up the envelope at some point and was staring blankly at the thick stack of money pulled out from inside.

He looked very calm on the surface, but she didn't know if it was her imagination, but she felt that under such a calm aura, he was hiding unspeakable sadness and loneliness.

After Cheng Qingcong closed the office door for a long time, Su Zhinian lowered his eyelids, stuffed the money back into the envelope, opened a drawer and threw it in.

The high fever that started last night shows no sign of going down, and I don’t have any strength in my body.

He leaned tiredly on his office chair and stared at the half-processed urgent email on the computer screen, without any intention of continuing.

I didn't expect her to pay back the money so quickly... In fact, deep down in her heart, she also wanted to end the relationship with him as soon as possible, right?

Now the last link between him and her is gone...

Su Zhinian turned his head and glanced out the window at the quiet and bright sunshine in the afternoon, and clearly felt that he was sinking rapidly into the depths of darkness.

The secret five years ago prevented him and her from being together, but they could still be friends.

The secret from five years ago destined him to bury the feelings he shouldn't have deep in his heart.

Therefore, once the one-hundred-day contract was over, he didn't even give himself the chance to continue to have contact with her.

Because he was afraid that the emotions he had suppressed in his heart for too long would suddenly burst out of control, and that he would lead her into the abyss with him.
