1516 The Truth
On the vast sea, a huge ship was moving forward through the wind. Xia Wei leaned on the deck and held his heart.
The huge wave mixed with the cold wind slapped Xia Wei’s face. However, at this moment, he could not feel the bone-chilling coldness on his face at all, because compared to the pain in his heart, everything was so small.
Xia Wei felt as if thousands of insects were constantly biting him in his heart, sucking the blood flowing in his heart bit by bit.
Xia Wei pulled open his clothes and took a look. The area covered by the nine-pointed star was getting larger and larger, almost spreading throughout his heart. His entire heart seemed a little dark and heavy under such a nine-pointed star, looking very terrifying.
Xia Wei calculated the time. It would be soon.
“Mr. Xia.” His subordinate’s footsteps came from behind.
Xia Wei removed his hand and buttoned his collar. “What is it?”
“Someone has been following us. It looks like Miss Chu,” the subordinate reported as he pointed not far away.
On the horizon, one could clearly see a small black dot in the distance. That was the ship Chu Man was on.
Hearing his subordinate’s words, Xia Wei’s eyes flickered. “Ignore her. Let her follow.”
“Okay.”
The ship behind him gradually increased its speed and caught up. Xia Wei got someone to temporarily slow down and build a wooden bridge in the middle.
Chu Man walked over from the other side. Xia Wei stood at the bridgehead and waited for Chu Man.
The waves on the sea suddenly rose and fell, causing Chu Man to stagger. Xia Wei reached out and pulled her over.
Chu Man leaned into Xia Wei’s arms, her eyelashes trembling gently. Her hand subconsciously leaned on Xia Wei’s chest, causing Xia Wei’s body to stiffen.
Chu Man looked up and met Xia Wei’s deep gaze. In fact, she had always wanted to say that although Xia Wei’s elegant and gentle appearance from before was handsome enough, what really attracted Chu Man was his unfathomable appearance.
Chu Man was about to say something when Xia Wei grabbed her wrist and pushed her away from him.
Sensing Xia Wei’s deliberate distance, Chu Man’s heart turned cold. She followed Xia Wei’s actions and stood firm. She tidied her hair. “There’s no need to think too much. I’m just attending the meeting and going the same way as you.”
Xia Wei did not speak and turned to leave.
Looking at Xia Wei’s gradually disappearing figure, Chu Man subconsciously bit her lower lip. “Damn it.”
I think I’m crazy. When had I, Chu Man, ever followed a man so humbly? However, I could not help but want to approach Xia Wei.
“Boss, Mr. Xia is disrespectful to you. Do you need me?” The subordinate sensed Chu Man’s anger and walked forward tactfully, but he received a cold glance from Chu Man.
“Who asked you to be nosy? Get lost.”
“Yes.”
After the subordinate left, only Chu Man was left on the deck. She stood quietly for a while and was about to go in and ask Xia Wei when a strange sound suddenly sounded not far away.
Chu Man looked up. A helicopter was slowly approaching.
Chu Man narrowed her eyes slightly and quietly waited for the plane to land. Soon, Jun Shiling and Bo Xiao walked out of the helicopter.
Seeing Jun Shiling, Chu Man’s eyes turned cold. “CEO Jun, you have much interest. Why are you in the mood to come here?”
“Miss Chu.” Jun Shiling nodded slightly at Chu Man. “I’m here to see a friend.”
“Friends?” Chu Man frowned slightly. “I don’t think CEO Jun has any friends here.”
Before Jun Shiling could speak, Xia Wei walked out of the cabin. He glanced at Jun Shiling. “CEO Jun is looking for me.”
Chu Man knew Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan’s relationship. She subconsciously felt that Jun Shiling had come here to meet Xia Wei because of Xia Wanyuan.
Chu Man’s heart ached inexplicably. She had already followed Xia Wei here, but Xia Wei was still thinking about Xia Wanyuan.
Chu Man was not an impulsive person. However, at this moment, driven by an unknown emotion, Chu Man took a step forward. “CEO Jun, you should know my rules. I don’t like to interact with people from China, especially the Jun family. Please leave.”
Jun Shiling looked at Xia Wei. “Really?”
“Mm.” Chu Man was about to say something when Xia Wei walked over from behind.
“CEO Jun, I’ll go with you.” With that, Xia Wei stood beside Jun Shiling.
Looking at Xia Wei, who was standing opposite her, the indifferent expression on Chu Man’s face dissipated. There was obvious sadness between her eyebrows. “You’re leaving?? Have you forgotten who picked you up from the desert??”
Looking at the cold Xia Wei in front of her, Chu Man thought of three years ago.
It was clearly a deserted desert, but because of Xia Wei in her memory, it was as if even the desert was soaked in the gentle light of the moonlight.
At that time, Xia Wei slowly walked towards her with a gentle expression. She thought that Xia Wei would always stay by her side so gently, but in the end, she was wrong.
She thought that if she gave Xia Wei everything he wanted over the years, Xia Wei would always stay by her side. However, now, for another woman, Xia Wei left without hesitation.
Xia Wei forced his gaze away from Chu Man’s face and said quietly, “I’m sorry.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Wei glanced at Jun Shiling. “Let’s go.”
Jun Shiling replied and turned to leave with Xia Wei.
Chu Man stood on the deck and watched Jun Shiling and Xia Wei leave together, her eyes filled with disbelief.
Xia Wei was leaving just like that? Did I really have no weight in his heart?
The wind and waves were very strong that day. The sea breeze howled. No one heard Xia Wei say softly before he left, “I’m sorry.”
The helicopter left with the people and quickly landed at the border of America. After getting out of the helicopter, Jun Shiling glanced at Xia Wei and finally broke the silence.
“Nice to meet you. Hello, I’m Jun Shiling.”
Xia Wei quietly sized up Jun Shiling for a while, then crossed his arms and bowed to Jun Shiling.
Jun Shiling had been with Xia Wanyuan for a long time, so he naturally knew this greeting very well. This was a greeting procedure from the Xia Dynasty’s royal family.
“What are you doing?”
“I saw the letter you gave me.” Xia Wei stood up straight. “I’ve always thought that my royal sister is omnipotent and that she doesn’t need anyone to rely on. However, I can see her dependence on you.”
Over the past few years, Xia Wei had been collecting information about Xia Wanyuan. He naturally knew something about Jun Shiling. Although he had not met him yet, Xia Wei had acknowledged Jun Shiling in his heart.
Jun Shiling smiled slightly. “Thank you for your approval.”
“The letter you gave me back then wasn’t clear. What’s your solution??”
