Endless Fall-Chapter 176 - 176 Don’t Push Me Away

176 Don’t Push Me Away

When they were together, he felt very comfortable.

He was trying to get to know her and care about her. At least, he was not as irresponsible as he used to be.

Qian Yue could feel that he liked her, but it was far from enough.

“Mr. Zhou.” She suppressed the urge to fall in love and rejected him tactfully. “I think it’s too soon.”

“Why?”

“We don’t know enough about each other. If we get together too quickly, I’ll feel insecure.”

“I’ll give you the sense of security you want.” Zhou Yanshen’s expression was unprecedentedly serious. “Qian Yue, trust me, okay?”

“It’s not about whether I trust you or not.” Qian Yue took two steps forward and looked up at him. “Mr. Zhou, I still need time.”

The feeling of being rejected for the first time made him feel powerless.

Zhou Yanshen held her hand. The moment he felt her body temperature, his helplessness turned into compromise.

He asked in a low voice, “How long do I have to wait?”

“I’m not sure.” Qian Yue did not give a specific time, but she would not disappoint him.

A conflicted look flashed across her eyes. “Maybe a week. Maybe a month.”

Zhou Yanshen could feel that she was having a hard time making a decision.

He did not force her or push her. He just stared at her with burning eyes. “Do you have feelings for me?”

“Yes.” Qian Yue glanced at him and lowered her head in embarrassment. “Otherwise, I wouldn’t go out with you.”

“I’ll wait.” Zhou Yanshen let out a long breath and couldn’t help but pull her into his arms. “When you think through it one day, remember to give me a hint.”

“Why do I have to give you a hint?”

“So that I can confess to you again.”

Qian Yue smiled. “Alright.” She fiddled with the roses in front of her. “Thank you for all this.”

“Don’t stand on ceremony with me.” Zhou Yanshen let go of her hand and handed her the roses. “Can you keep the flowers?”

“Sure.”

“It’s cold outside. Let’s go in first.”

Qian Yue turned around to look at the well-decorated venue.

She remembered it deep in her heart and smiled sweetly and happily while he could not see.

From that day onwards, Zhou Yanshen became even more attentive.

Not only would he spend a lot of time with her, but he would also run a few kilometers to buy her favorite delicacies. He would even personally choose gifts for her. From bags to accessories, he had given out countless gifts.

In just half a month, he had invested much more in her than in any other relationship he had been in before. He had also unknowingly deepened his feelings for her.

He was prepared to be accepted by her, but he did not expect that a woman who came out of nowhere would ruin everything.

“President Zhou.” At the elevator door on the top floor of Star River, Yu Hui called out to Zhou Yanshen, who was about to go downstairs.

In order to get a chance to interact with Zhou Yanshen, she deliberately tried to build a good relationship with the staff on the top floor. She only wanted to come up and meet him.

Naturally, she did not want to miss this excellent opportunity. “Do you have time?”

“Why?”

“I want to talk to you.”

Star River had too many celebrities, so Zhou Yanshen really had no impression of her. However, he still showed her some respect and stopped in his tracks.

He said calmly, “Get to the point.”

“I…” Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around, Yu Hui mustered her courage and said, “I’ve liked you for a long time.”

“So?”

“Can you give me a chance?”

Zhou Yanshen raised an eyebrow. “I’m not interested in you.”

“What type do you like? I can change myself to suit your taste.”

“No matter what who you become, it’s useless.” He smiled. “Do you understand?”

Yu Hui’s eyes instantly turned red.

She bit her lower lip, and tears welled up in her eyes. “President Zhou, you haven’t even tried to get to know me.”

“Do you think I have time to play with you?”

“I don’t expect to stay by your side for long, even if it’s three days or a week. I just hope you can pay more attention to me.”

“You mean you want to be my sugar baby?” Zhou Yanshen sized her up, not knowing where she got the courage to make this request.

“If you want.”

“I don’t want to.”

Seeing that he refused, Yu Hui deliberately took two steps forward and fell on him.

Zhou Yanshen subconsciously held her arm.

Just as he was about to let go, a plastic bag hit his back and landed on the ground with a bang.

He turned around and happened to see a familiar face in the slowly closing elevator.

“Qian Yue!” He strode forward and pressed the elevator button to let the elevator stop.

...

“President Zhou, what’s wrong?” Yu Hui walked to his side in confusion, as if she wanted to repeat her old trick.

Her approach made Zhou Yanshen extremely angry.

“Get lost!” He pushed her away and walked into the other elevator, quickly closing the door.

It only took him dozens of seconds to reach the first floor, but it felt especially long to him. Even his thoughts were extremely chaotic.

Fortunately, he was not late. As soon as he walked into the hall, he saw Qian Yue. “Qian Yue, let me explain.”

“Let go!” Qian Yue retreated, trying to break free from his hand. “I saw it with my eyes. What do you want to explain?”

She looked at him coldly with her red eyes. Even her voice became choked.

Zhou Yanshen’s heart felt like it had been pierced by a needle.

Instead of letting go, he tightened his grip. “That person sprained her ankle just now. I was just helping her up. I didn’t do anything.”

“She’s already in your arms!” When Qian Yue shouted at him, tears rolled down the corners of her eyes.

Her lips trembled slightly. “I thought you would reject another woman for me. Apparently, I overestimated myself.” 𝗳𝘳𝒆𝘦𝑤𝐞𝚋𝗻𝚘𝘷𝘦𝙡.𝑐𝐨𝘮

...

Her tears made Zhou Yanshen completely panic.

“Qian Yue, don’t cry, okay?” He gently wiped her tears away. “I really didn’t do anything to let you down.”

In the past, when his ex-girlfriends cried in front of him, he never felt so bad.

But now…

He felt extremely uncomfortable.

“How can I trust you?” Qian Yue pushed his shoulder away, unwilling to let him touch her.

She told him about her grievances. “You told me… that you wanted to eat pan-fried buns at the entrance of my hospital. I went to buy it for you after the surgery this morning. I was afraid that it would turn cold, so I kept it in my coat. In the end, you treated me like this.”

Zhou Yanshen’s heart ached even more.

“It’s my fault.” For the first time in his life, he put down his dignity in front of a woman. “Qian Yue, I promise to keep a distance from them. This will never happen again. Can you forgive me?”

Qian Yue did not soften her heart because of his attitude and soft tone, nor did she plan to let it go.

“Stop it.” She was crying so hard that her voice was trembling. “I want some time alone.”

“Let me keep you company.”

“No need.”

Zhou Yanshen, who was pushed away again, held her waist tightly, as if he wanted to glue himself to her.

He said hoarsely, “Qian Yue, don’t push me away.”
