Tangled Up In Blue novel Chapter 115

Poppi noticed the panic in his eyes and the eagerness he tried to hide. Strangely enough, she said slowly, "Mr. Ji is right. But Mr. Ji doesn't allow me to leave. Is there really any other reason? "

"You..." With Benson's Adam's apple bobbing in his throat, he looked at Poppi in some bewilderment, and even his eyes were covered with a layer of dodging light.

The clock was ticking. Poppi licked her lips and suddenly realized that she had been really crazy to ask that question.

"Shut up! I believe that you didn't mean anything else! I... I didn't mean anything else! I, I take back my question. " Poppi said quickly. She didn't want to stay here any longer, so she planned to run away as fast as she could. "I have to go!"

"Poppi!" All of a sudden, Benson reached out his hands and grabbed Poppi's arms. He put forth a lot of strength on his hands which successfully stopped her from walking further. He hung his head slightly and his voice was vague but extremely clear, "what if I tell you that I don't allow you to leave just for personal reasons?" After that, he finally had the courage to see what Poppi looked like. Poppi's appearance was so clear in the dream of four years, but when he woke up, he was so far away from her. He could not help but repeat it, pressing his missing over the past four years into a sentence. His voice was so heavy that it was hard to melt away. "It's all private..."

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Poppi's heart beat was deafening in the quiet office and she was too shocked to say a word. She had also thought about the reason why he left and heard that he was helpless. But now that he admitted his selfishness in public, how could she isn't shocked?

"So what? Even though it's all for myself, it won't change anything. " He spoke a lot today and felt helpless. His smile was even more faint. "I won't cause you trouble. I have promised from the beginning that I won't disturb your life, but I have to see you happy with my own eyes. Only in this way can I feel relieved."

Poppi swallowed and said, "you don't have to do this. I don't want Miss Pei to misunderstand us. What's more, I don't want Malcolm to misunderstand anything. "

"…… I understand. It's good that you have forgotten what I said just now. I also have forgotten it. " As if he had been stabbed for no reason, he felt a dull pain in his heart, but he said fatally, "now that in this the case, will you make it public with Mr. Malcolm?"

"Maybe. I don't know."

"Okay," Benson nodded awkwardly. "It may not be a bad idea to make it public. As if Mr. Malcolm… He is a reliable person. Since it is public, no one will gossip about it. It's good for you to be harmless. "

After being stunned for a long time, Poppi said, "you can't go on like this. I can see that Miss Pei likes you very much. Since she has been engaged to you, will you… You should try to accept her. After all, it's time for you to consider the future. "

"Yes." "Go out to work! Don't care about what other people think. I'll take care of it. "

"Okay," Poppi nodded.

"But promise me this will be your last time to resign." Benson pursed his lips and pleaded, "Maybe… I won't take a few years to leave here. You just need to bear with me for a few more years. Besides, I won't come to the periodical office very often, so I won't disturb you. Don't mention the resignation any more, okay? "

"Where are you going?" Poppi asked with doubt, and after that, she nodded understandingly, "maybe it is in foreign countries? Going abroad is good. You can stay with Miss Pei. "

With a bitter smile, Benson didn't answer her question. He quietly released his grip on Poppi's arm and said, "go to work. If you're tried, have more rest."

He often said such words before. When Poppi was studying, she was not concentrated at all, which was found by Benson. He did not blame her at all and just said, "if you are tired of learning, just take a sleep and have more rest."

It reminded her of the old days, which made her heart sink. She said goodbye to him and left his office in a hurry.

Standing in the same place and looking out of the window at the direction where Poppi left, with the sun shining brightly, he seemed to be hollowed out. After quite a long time, he was still in a daze.

Future? Where is his future? What if he left… 'Poppi, will you miss me?

When she returned to her office, the desk was already full of documents. She smiled and forgot that she had been promoted to a director of the department. It was her turn to check the document!

After working for half a morning and taking a break in the middle, she went to the tea room with Wendy and others.

"What happened in Mr. Ji's office just now, Poppi?" Wendy asked.

"No, nothing." Poppi took a sip of coffee.

"When Mr. Ji's fiancee came out, she was domineering and looked fierce. She is not a good person. Compared with our gentle and refined Mr. Ji, she is inferior." "Mr. Ji is such a good man..." Aileen continued, shaking her head.

"Wow, Poppi, your hairpin is so beautiful." Jenny shifted the topic away. She stared at Poppi's hairpin and asked, "is this the one Mr. Su gave you on your birthday?"

Upon hearing this, Wendy also tiptoed to look at her and shook her head. "No! The one given by Mr. Su was a branch and a pink diamond, different from this one! This is a huge flower! "

"Right!" Aileen nodded in agreement. Then she said with a smirk, "this seems to be very expensive too. Is this another one from Mr. Su?"

"No, no, definitely not. No one sent the same gift!" Jenny simply put down her cup and touched her hairpin. "Wow, it looked more beautiful! 'Poppi, who sent it to you? Isn't that Miss Su? Which rich man? "

Hearing what they said, Poppi's face turned red. Though she really wanted to put on the airs of "director of the Department", the three women didn't care it. So she could do nothing but was threaten by them, "It was… From someone else! "

After her words, the three hooligans kicked up a fuss.
