The Big Boss & His Dainty Wife-Chapter 237 - I’ll Be Behind You_1

Chapter 237: Chapter 237 I’ll Be Behind You_1

Tao Yi spoke sincerely, and the devotion in his eyes was genuine.

Yet, there wasn’t a ripple in Hai Xiaotang’s heart.

She apologized, “I’m sorry, Brother Tao, but I’m afraid I can’t accept your feelings.”

“Is it because of fear?” Tao Yi asked delicately, “You could try spending time with me, if you think…”

Hai Xiaotang shook her head, interrupting him.

“There’s no need, Brother Tao. When I say I’m not interested in love, I mean it. I know it’s hard for people to understand, they might think I’m just being dramatic as a young woman, but Tin serious. Brother Tao, I hope you can understand me…”

Although Tao Yi felt disappointed, his feelings for her were even stronger.

What kind of pain had she endured to have such a jaded perspective?

But she didn’t speak of it, and he couldn’t press her.

Tao Yi ultimately chose to understand, “Xiaotang, live according to your own wishes. But if one day you require love, turn around, I’ll be behind you.”

Hai Xiaotang was taken aback, feeling a touch of emotion.

“Brother Tao, thank you.”

Tao Yi ruffled her hair, smiling brightly, “Why are you so polite with me? From now on, treat me like your brother, okay?”

“Okay.” Hai Xiaotang responded with a radiant smile.

Tao Yi glanced at her, took out a jewelry box, and handed it to her, “This is what I bought last time, intending to give it to you. A gift from a brother to a sister.”

Hai Xiaotang was surprised, it was the Begonia Flower Earrings.

“Thank you, Brother Tao!” She accepted his gift cheerfully, which made Tao Yi very happy.

“What do you want to eat? It’s my treat.” Tao Yi cheerfully asked as he started the car again.

Hai Xiaotang thought for a moment and said, “Let’s have hot pot, I haven’t had it in a long time.”

“Alright, let’s go for hot pot!” frёewebηovel.cѳm

The two of them were excited to have hot pot, but just a few minutes into the trip, Tao Yi received a call from the camp, requesting him to return immediately for a mission.

Hai Xiaotang noticed his dilemma and declined his proposal to drop her home first.

She could take a taxi home, but Tao Yi’s mission couldn’t be delayed.

This made Tao Yi feel apologetic, “I will definitely treat you to a meal next time.”

Hai Xiaotang was standing outside the car, nodding her head, “Sure, there will be another chance. Brother Tao, do your task and be careful.”

“Alright!” Tao Yi looked deeply at her before reluctantly starting the car to leave.

Hai Xiaotang watched him leave, about to hail a taxi, she suddenly noticed an ad being played on the large outdoor screen across the square.

The ad was from Dongfang, and the designer featured in it was Lin Xinxin.

In the ad, Lin Xinxin appeared confident, elegant and intelligent. Her unique design for an orphanage perfectly demonstrated Dongfang’s strength.

Hai Xiaotang thought to herself, no wonder Lin Xinxin is reluctant to leave Dongfang.

With this ad airing, her popularity will significantly increase, her standing at Dongfang will rise accordingly.

If everything goes as planned, her future is boundless.

Therefore, leaving Dongfang now would mean risking her chance for success.

Considering how smart and profit-driven she is, how could she be content with leaving at this critical juncture…

However, Hai Xiaotang didn’t care at all about Lin Xinxin’s future.

Just as she was about to flag a taxi, one, as if reading her thoughts, conveniently stopped right in front of her.
