C47 First Love Turning Back to Change One's Mind(3)

I was also stunned. As the saying goes, there's no such thing as a book or two, Zhao Jie finally discovered my figure in the news. Even though it was only a one-sided lens, but to Zhao Jie, how could she not recognize me? However, I must keep a low profile. All of our work is classified as confidential, including the fact that I am now Chief C's personal guard and even my family does not know about me. They only know that I am a cadre in the army and that I am now a lieutenant in the middle.

I explained, "Zhao Jie, you must be seeing things. Why would I appear on the news?"

Zhao Jie said resolutely: "I saw it clearly, it's you! It's definitely you, I won't recognize wrong! Tell me, what exactly are you doing right now, and what does it have to do with Chief C? "

I calmed my emotions before replying, "You've really seen the wrong person. I've never even seen Chief C's face before, let alone appearing in the news. You've really fooled me!"

Zhao Jie continued, "Impossible, I can't possibly see wrongly! How can I be wrong? "

I said, "You did see wrong."

Zhao Jie asked again, "You … Tell me, are you now the bodyguard of Chief C? Say, tell me, don't lie to me, okay? "

I said, "I didn't lie to you. It was you who misjudged me. I am now a military officer. How did I become some sort of bodyguard?" "Uh, can you call me about this? Is there anything else? I'm busy right now, so if there's nothing else, I'll hang up." I quickly changed the topic, afraid that Zhao Jie would get to the bottom of the matter. I don't like to lie, but the job's special nature makes me have no choice but to lie.

Zhao Jie said anxiously: "Zhao Long, you, are you so annoying right now?"

I said, "No, no, how could that be?"

Zhao Jie said: Then why are you so anxious to hang up?

I said, "There really is something. My comrade is waiting for me. There are matters that I have to take care of!"

Zhao Jie said: "Then … "Then can you listen to me and ask one last question, just one last one?"

I said, "Ask."

Zhao Jie seemed to be silent for a moment, then he gathered up his courage and asked: "If we were to … I still want to be your girlfriend, and you still... Will you still accept me? "

My heart immediately thumped. Honestly speaking, I have waited for many years for these words to come out, I had always thought that if one day Zhao Jie could change his mind and return to my side, how happy would I be, how happy. But I realized then that I was wrong. I didn't feel happy at all. Instead, I felt very sad, very sad. I could feel that my eyes were already slightly moist, because I had long since understood that it was already impossible for Zhao Jie to become the other half of my life. Forever, forever...

I forced a smile and asked: "Zhao Jie, what are you joking about?"

Zhao Jie said: "I'm not joking, I'm serious. "Only now do I know that I have truly let you down. I should treasure you, but I …"

I interrupted her: "Enough Zhao Jie, stop talking, you said it before, we are not from the same boat, even if we are forced to be together, we will not be happy, if it is in the past, let it be!"

Zhao Jie sobbed, "No no, don't do this to me. I already know that I was wrong, I really still like it … Love you! "

I said smilingly, "This joke of yours is too big, Zhao Jie. "Well, I have to get back to work. Let's get in touch!" I quickly hung up the phone, not wanting to hear Zhao Jie's confession anymore. I felt that this sudden confession was too pale to convince me.

I shaved its face to make it as calm as possible, afraid that You Meng would see through my predicament.
