Chapter 1713: (Chapter 1713) Cold War

A 'click' sound.

A drop of crystal warm water fell on the phone screen.

Sakura looked at the gradually smeared water droplets on the screen in disbelief.

She actually cried for a man.

Having been trained since childhood, her heart has long been as hard as iron. The person who trained them once said that men are the most heartless creatures in the world.

Women must learn to protect their hearts. Once they are emotional and hurt, it will be a thousand times more painful than being hurt.

Sakura didn't believe it before.

But now, she really felt it.

Just because of those two words said by Long Ming.

She never knew that the damage caused by words could be more terrible than arrows.

It hurts people invisible, that's probably it!

Sakura closed her eyes and leaned her slender body on the sofa. She looked tired and weak.

In fact, she understood the truth. After all, he was the king at the pinnacle of power. He could not remain indifferent to the pressure from public opinion and the royal family.

But why did he lie to himself?

If he said he couldn't marry her or give her a title, wouldn't she insist on him?

Sakura closed her eyes and held her chest with her jade-like fingers. After the pain there gradually eased, she got up from the sofa.

After taking a bath, she lay on the large soft couch in her pajamas.

She turned off all the lights in the master bedroom.

She turned sideways and looked at the moonlight outside the window.

Maybe soon there will be another woman here.

Thinking of the image of another woman lying here, Sakura's long and thick eyelashes trembled like injured butterfly wings.

She doesn't have a sad temperament, no matter how big things happen to her, she will never make her cry or die.

At midnight, Sakura heard a noise at the door, and after a while, someone pushed the door open and came in.

Without looking back, Xiaoying knew that Long Ming was back.

The man stepped in quietly, stood beside the bed and looked at her for a few seconds. After seeing her asleep, he went to the bathroom.

Sakura's mind suddenly became clearer. The sound of gurgling water in the bathroom could be heard in her ears, and the man's cold and ruthless words echoed in her mind.

He won't marry a woman like her!

He wants to marry a woman who is the right match for him!

After Long Ming came out of the bathroom, he went to the princess room to see Wan Bao. After a while, he returned to the bedroom.

From the beginning to the end, Sakura never turned around.

In a dark space, the slightest sound will be infinitely amplified.

He lifted the quilt and lay next to her.

A refreshing breath after bathing floated into her nose. The emotions that were originally controllable were like uncontrollable tides, hitting her chest one after another, making her feel like she couldn't breathe.

After Long Ming lay down, he stared at Sakura's back for a few seconds.

The long arm that was about to wrap around her reached halfway and then retracted it.

He opened his deep and cold eyes, looking at the ceiling above his head, and pictures of her with other men appeared in his mind.

He knew that he couldn't think about it, and he also knew that her past was not something she could control. She didn't have the closest relationship with those men, but his chest was still so tight that he felt uncomfortable.

…

No matter how difficult or sad you encounter, you still have to live and work as usual.

When she woke up the next day, there was nothing strange on Sakura's face, and Long Ming was the same as before.

Long Ming had already gone through the formalities for Wan Bao to enter the kindergarten for aristocratic children. After breakfast, he and Xiao Ying sent Wan Bao to school together.

Wanbao is very adaptable. She is a pretty and soft little girl with a lively and friendly personality. As soon as she arrived at the kindergarten, she won the favor of the teachers.

Xiaoying and Long Ming stood at the door of the classroom and watched for a while. Seeing that Wanbao had integrated well into the new environment, they left happily.

Sitting in the car, Long Ming looked at Xiaoying, "I'm going abroad for the next two days to do some errands. I've arranged for a driver and bodyguard. They will come to pick up Wan Bao in the afternoon."

Sakura nodded and didn't ask him what he wanted to do when he went abroad.

Long Ming didn't explain too much.

Xiaoying made an agreement with Sister Wen to work in the branch temporarily. If she did nothing and stayed in the palace all day, she might have random thoughts.

Since Long Ming didn't take the initiative to mention not marrying her, she didn't want to mention it either. She came here with Wan Bao, and it was impossible to go back immediately.

She can withstand the torment, but Wan Bao cannot.

Long Ming has been extremely busy since he came back yesterday. He is going abroad soon and has no time to communicate with her.

"If you want me to go to work in the branch later, just send me a hundred or two hundred meters away from the company."

Long Ming hummed lowly.

In the car, an atmosphere of silence spread.

Long Ming had a lot of documents to read, while Sakura was looking out the car window.

The happiness of the past two days seemed like a dream to her now.

I woke up from the dream and returned to reality.

After driving for more than twenty minutes, the car stopped.

The driver followed Sakura's instructions and parked his car about two hundred meters away from the branch building.

Sakura got out of the car and glanced at Long Ming through the unclosed window.

He looked at the document with a stern look. She got out of the car, but he didn't look at her.

Sakura felt astringent in her heart and curled her lower lip in a self-deprecating tone. She turned around and walked towards the company without looking at him.

As soon as Sakura took a few steps forward, the man in the car looked towards her.

It wasn't until her figure disappeared from sight that he told the driver, "Drive."

The driver noticed something was wrong between Long Ming and Xiao Ying, but as a servant, he didn't dare to ask any more questions.

…

The branch is in the CBD center.

Entering the sixty-story business building, Sakura put on her work badge and was about to walk toward the elevator when she saw several well-dressed ladies standing there.

One of them is... Loulan.

Loulan's energy seemed to have recovered. She was wearing a high-end dress, with delicate makeup on her face, and was listening to a few celebrities talking.

One of the ladies seemed to be fawning over Lou Lan. The topic somehow came to Long Ming. The lady said, "Ms. Lou, we are relieved to see you return to the world of ladies. We really can't bear to worry about a vixen who is not as good as you." value."

Several other celebrities echoed, "That's right, I've seen the news. That woman was so ignorant that she threw herself into the arms of King Mian in public. This is something that a decent daughter would never do!"

These ladies are really telling lies with their eyes open.

It was obviously Long Ming who held her in his arms that night.

"In my opinion, a woman like her will never be able to enter the royal family and become a princess." The socialite who was fawning over Loulan looked disdainful. She was about to say something when she was suddenly bumped into.
