143 You Can't Fool Me Twice, Lu Tianxin 1
Whatever happened in the past, she couldn't change any of it. If someone asked her if she regretted not choosing him at the time, Lu Tianxin would say that she didn't regret anything back then and would still choose to leave him.
She was aware that her rejection hurt him deeply, but what Ye Xiaozu didn't understand was that it was also hard for her to make that decision. If she'd chosen to go to Singapore with him back then, she was sure that she would regret it as soon as they landed.
No doubt that she might not have Luo Luo in her life and would blame herself for not choosing the other option.

Lu Tianxin let out an awkward laugh. It was too late for her to back down even if she wanted to. Her hand clenched on her side and forced herself to hide her worries behind a cold mask. She should be like her cousin, Moyu, who wasn't easily perturbed by meeting anyone. The Tang Enterprise would be at a disadvantage if she allowed anyone to take advantage of her weaknesses and faults, no matter how small they were.
"No worries, Miss Gu. I'll be fine." She heaved a sigh and smiled at the other woman in the elevator. She was sure that Ye Xiaozu wouldn't be the same man she knew years ago. Perhaps he had already moved on with his life and forgot about her.
Gu Yuyao only looked at her for a moment and turned to look at the line of light above the elevator door, seeing the light gradually increasing as they passed by each floor.
It was so obvious to her that Lu Tianxin was nervous about this meeting. Her whole body became tense the moment they stepped inside Ye Corporation. Lu Tianxin looked like a cat that was ready to escape at any given chance. historical
"Look, whatever happened between the two of you, you have to set it aside. We have to look into the project and see what's been going on since it started." Gu Yuyao said seriously, reminding Lu Tianxin's position as Tang Moyu's Deputy CEO.
"I understand, Miss Gu."
"For god's sake, I can't believe Tang Zhelan is still able to give us headaches even when she's no longer part of the management." The Gu heiress said with annoyance. If only Tang Zhelan did her job properly, she and Lu Tianxin wouldn't be here to fix the problem themselves.
"If it wasn't for you and Moyu, I don't think the company would still exist, Miss Gu." Lu Tianxin told her.
Gu Yuyao scoffed and waved a hand.
Lu Tianxin gave her a smile and nodded. Of course she knew that. Tang Moyu had such an admirable dedication to her work, one that she hadn't seen in anyone she knew before. She worked hard to earn her degrees abroad and had proved to everyone that she wasn't below Feng Tianhua years ago. And now that she was working at Tang Enterprise, she managed to create yet another miracle by saving the company from the brink of bankruptcy.
Seeing her cousin like this, how can she stay dependent on Tang Moyu, knowing she could do something to lessen her burden?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLu Tianxin knew that she wasn't as smart as Tang Moyu, but she was willing to try her best and work hard, not only for the sake of the company, but for Luo Luo's future as well.
As a single mother who was raising her son alone, it was hard for her to make ends meet, but she wasn't willing to stay still and do nothing. She wanted to prove to everyone that she's also capable, not just a pretty face waiting for her prince charming to come and save her. She wanted to earn their respect and recognition, just like Tang Moyu did.
The moment they reached the top floor, they were greeted by Ye Xiaozu's assistant.
"Welcome to Ye Corporation. Our President is waiting for the two of you. Please follow me." The man told them respectfully.
Gu Yuyao nodded and let him lead them to one of the conference rooms, where Ye Xiaozu was in, waiting for them.
Lu Tianxin shivered the moment their eyes met. She looked at his familiar face and felt her chest tightening. Wearing a dark dress shirt and a dark suit, Ye Xiaozu looked more mature and wiser compared to the last time she'd seen him, where his youthful streak was still obvious. His eyes were still able to make her knees go weak. However, Lu Tianxin refused to back down under his hard gaze.
Meanwhile, Ye Xiaozu had been waiting for them for half an hour now. He knew that he was too early for their appointment, but he needed enough time to compose himself. He wasn't sure what he would feel to meet Lu Tianxin again.
As soon as Lu Tianxin walked in with Gu Yuyao, he held his breath upon seeing her. Her dark hair was down, a few strands framing her round face. Her eyes were still as expressive as he remembered. He didn't think she would still be as enthralling as before.
