Su Yan looked at him, her face gradually falling as she saw his troubled expression.
She clearly felt the hope in her heart slowly disappearing. "Chizheng, tell me the truth. Have you never really thought about leaving with me?"
"..." Shen Chizheng said nothing.
Pain seeped into Su Yan's eyes, "I've already submitted my resignation letter, and our director has approved it."
She quit her job just to leave with him, to start anew in a place where no one knew them.
But for so long, he hadn't shown any intention of leaving.
She couldn't see any determination in him to leave.
What she saw was him still entangled in past matters, showing no signs of letting go of what he was doing.
Seeing her displeasure, Shen Chizheng quickly embraced her, holding her tightly, "Yanyan, don't get upset yet, listen to my explanation."
Su Yan let him hold her, not struggling but also not leaning into it.
She had mentally prepared herself; she would respect his decision no matter what it was.
