?64: Chapter 64 Rejected Confession 64: Chapter 64 Rejected Confession Getting this response, Zhou Jiajia was about 80% certain that the person was Lin Yifan; the hairstyle he had was quite rare among people nearby.

    “Mr.

    Lin, are you a bodyguard?”

    Seeing this message, Lin Yifan was instantly bewildered.

    He didn’t know why the other person knew he was a bodyguard.

    Could it be merely inferred from the few answers he gave?

    He felt that person must know him, potentially being nearby, likely a female employee of the company.

    The company had strict rules, and he didn’t dare admit it, so he replied, “No!”

    “You’re lying, aren’t you Mr.

    Lin Yifan?”

    “Um...

    how do you know who I am?”

    Lin Yifan was overwhelmed with panic, feeling that something serious was about to happen.

    He just prayed the other person wouldn’t tattle on him; otherwise, he might lose his stable job.

    “Because I am a girl chasing Fan, chasing after you.”

    Lin Yifan breathed a sigh of relief; someone who chased after him probably wouldn’t betray him.

    Since he had changed his look yesterday, many female employees at the company took a liking to him.

    He didn’t know even their names, so he asked, “Who are you...?”

    “I’m Secretary Zhou.”

    Seeing these five words, Lin Yifan jumped in shock.

    The pretty girl, Secretary Zhou, really liked him; what was he supposed to do now?

    To be honest, Zhou Jiajia, this gentle and mature beauty, it would be a lie to say he didn’t like her.

    However, considering his current economic situation, he simply couldn’t make her happy; besides, he had already promised Su Qingqing that he would wait for her, so how could he easily accept Zhou Jiajia’s pursuit?

    So he calmly replied, “I know you like me, but given my current economic situation, I regretfully can’t accept your confession.

    I know you’ll say you don’t mind, but I do, I don’t want you to suffer and struggle with me, living a life of uncertainty.”

    After reading the whole message, Zhou Jiajia realized that Lin Yifan didn’t dislike her.

    He was rejecting her confession due to objective reasons.

    Such a responsible man made her even more infatuated.

    He hadn’t coveted her beauty or her wealth; this was rare and proved that he cared about her.

    However, she still wanted to clarify a fundamental concern, so she asked, “Do you actually like me or not?”

    This question stumped Lin Yifan.

    He had met the pure girl Su Qingqing the night before.

    She had said she might accept his confession after a year.

    But what if she didn’t?

    Besides, the events of last night had been a complete misunderstanding.

    Su Qingqing misinterpreted his intention, and he hadn’t actually confessed to her.

    Now the question arose, what kind of feelings did he have towards Su Qingqing?

    Did she like him?

    Could something actually come of their relationship?

    “Perhaps after a year, she would have long forgotten about me, right?”

    Lin Yifan also felt that he shouldn’t delay the bright future of a college student.

    But was it any better to harm a rich girl?

    So he faced reality, “I do like you a bit, but we’re really not suitable.”

    “You don’t have to consider my feelings.

    If I choose you, I’m not afraid of a life of hardship,” Zhou Jiajia replied.

    “Miss Zhou, you haven’t lived through such a life, you don’t know its hardships; so I advise you to be more realistic.”

    “Then what economic conditions do you feel you must reach before you can accept me?” Zhou Jiajia asked.

    Seeing this response, Lin Yifan knew she hadn’t given up.

    Basing his calculation on his current salary, he figured it would take him several years to earn a few million; and Zhou Jiajia was not getting any younger, she probably couldn’t wait that long.

    Furthermore, his job wasn’t secure; he could lose it at any time.

    So he decided to be decisive and replied bluntly, “At least ten million.”

    He hoped that after seeing this message, Zhou Jiajia would retreat, realizing the difficulty and stop wasting time on him.

    Indeed, upon seeing this amount, Zhou Jiajia’s heart cooled.

    Based on Lin Yifan’s current salary, it would take at least 20 years to earn ten million.

    In 20 years, she would have turned into an old and faded woman.

    Would he still want her then?

    No, that’s not right; his intention was to make her back off.

    To have a stable life, you don’t need that much money!

    Besides, with his current salary, he could provide her with a stable life.

    Perhaps his real concern was that without this job, he’d have no income to support her.

    If she could assure that An Qi wouldn’t fire him, maybe then he would accept her.

    After coming to an understanding, Zhou Jiajia felt relieved and replied competently, “A stable life doesn’t require wealth and luxury.

    You’re afraid that this job isn’t secure, which is why you dare not accept me, right?

    If that’s the case, I assure you now that An Qi will definitely not fire you.

    Can you accept me now?”
