章節 11: Chapter 11 The Self-Esteem of Being a Man

```

But, meeting in the suite? If someone saw, it would inevitably provoke rumors and gossip, yet if she refused, who knew if there would ever be a second chance.

Lin Miao'er took the elevator to Gong Motin's room, stood at the wooden door, took a deep breath, and gently knocked on the door.

"Come in!" The voice from inside was clear, cold, and crisp.

Lin Miao'er entered the room to find Gong Motin sitting with his legs crossed in a chair, his cool demeanor even more chilling than before.

What, did he not like the gift she sent?

Lin Miao'er glanced at him out of the corner of her eye, sizing up the capricious man, thinking of the boy at home who would probably grow up to be just like him, but indeed, he looked extremely handsome.

"Mr. Gong," Lin Miao'er greeted, "did you call me here because you remembered what happened five years ago?"

"No." His curt response was so cold it could freeze the tongue.

Lin Miao'er didn't give up, her lips spreading into a brilliant smile: "Then, can we have a good talk now, I'll help you remember."

Gong Motin's brow furrowed: "Sure!"

Lin Miao'er stepped forward with a smile: "I almost thought Mr. Gong never wanted to see me again in this lifetime."

Gong Motin chuckled softly, he indeed had had that thought.

Five years ago, they had married, she was passionately forward with him in the car, and after that, without a word, vanished into thin air.

Did this woman even consider his pride as a man?

But after opening the box she sent, he felt he might have been wrong.

"Mr. Gong, I have a question I'd like to ask you, you won't mind, will you?"

"You've done all the things I mind, this one hardly matters, go ahead." He lazily lifted his eyelids, then quickly shifted his gaze away from her.

Lin Miao'er clenched her fingertips, took a deep breath: "Mr. Gong, I sent you a divorce agreement five years ago, did you agree to the divorce?"

Gong Motin's sexy Adam's apple bobbed, he hesitated to speak.

He didn't expect her to ask him this question right off the bat, creating turmoil within him. His hand almost knocked the teacup off the table onto the floor.

He remembered the last time he lost his composure, it had been during a meeting when his assistant suddenly placed her divorce agreement before his eyes...

Gong Motin stood up, looking down condescendingly at Lin Miao'er, "So what is the outcome Miss Lin is hoping for?"

Lin Miao'er laughed self-deprecatingly, "I don't have the right to interfere with your decision. I can only say that the events of that year were absurd. I'm sorry, but as a party involved, I hope to know that answer."

"From what you're saying, Miss Lin, are you eager to find your next target, afraid that I, Gong Motin, would hold you back?" Gong Motin seemed to deliberately slow his speech, his tone deep and forceful, pounding her heartbeat faster like a drum.

"So, did Mr. Gong sign it or not?" Lin Miao'er held her skirt tightly, feigning composure as she continued to ask.

The man before her, although not from an illustrious family nor particularly wealthy and powerful, surely must have not been short of women's company over these five years. If he was already married, then she would not disturb him anymore.

She noticed Gong Motin's lips were tightly sealed, much like she knew Da Bai to be, identical to this man's demeanor.

Lin Miao'er, unwilling to give up, continued to ask: "Then, Mr. Gong, have you met a girl who moved your heart in these past five years?"

"Miss Lin, how is my personal affair any of your concern?" Gong Motin glanced at her sidelong, his cool and sparse attitude leaving no warmth on her beautiful, radiant face.

Lin Miao'er smiled coyly: "It's related. Would Mr. Gong care to tell me?"

"Are you very interested in me?" Gong Motin said as his well-defined fingers lifted her chin.
