The Billionaire's Hidden Affection

In his presence, there is a sense of security, an admirable elegance.

She thinks: How could a man like Brother Donglin enjoy something as vulgar as playing mahjong?

Impossible.

She doesn’t believe it.

Yet, he was busy the whole night, surrounded by countless people laughing and chatting. His demeanor was excellent, his enthusiasm abundant, moving gracefully among them.

So much so that she didn’t have a chance to speak to him alone.

Moreover, Zhang Mama was closely following her, obviously not wanting her daughter to embarrass herself at any moment. There were also two sisters-in-law, both from prestigious families, understanding the rules, with prior instructions from the mother-in-law, keeping a close watch on the younger sister-in-law’s every move.

That’s why Chuchu was very displeased tonight.

Extremely displeased.

She felt particularly annoyed by the two sisters-in-law.

Several times, she even wanted to push them away and rush out alone.

After a trip to the restroom, Wan Donglin stopped at a quiet corner of the garden.

The phone never rang, no calls, messages, or texts... nothing at all.

He dialed again, but the display showed the phone was turned off.

Why would it be off?

Wasn’t this supposed to be her happiest moment?

In fact, since the last call last night, her phone hasn’t been answered. It was also the first time she hung up before he finished speaking.

Today, he dialed at least a hundred times, but it was constantly off.

He thought, she must be upset.

She never acted like this before, whatever happened was quickly resolved with a bit of temper. But this time is different, it was her graduation celebration.

Graduating from Harvard, what an honor?

Many people’s relatives and friends would come from all over to attend the ceremony, especially since she has no other relatives or friends but him.

Saying she doesn’t wish for him to come would be a lie.

No matter how forgiving a woman is, her heart turns cold at such a moment.

Gradually, maybe she understood: in his mind, she is certainly very important... but always ranks behind many things—there are always many things more important than her.

For instance, Old Zhang’s birthday banquet.

No expectations, then there’s no disappointment.

Too much disappointment and your heart turns lifeless.

Moreover, after being apart for so long, what’s the point of coming together?

That’s why her phone was off all day.

Because of this, he felt very guilty.

Wan Donglin dialed again, but it was still off or busy.

He suspected she had put him on a blacklist.

He thought about it and sent her messages. But after dozens of messages, there was still no response.

...

Meanwhile, Liu Daqing had just spoken to a few acquaintances, when Old Zhang came over.

She smiled: "Today, I’m the oldest one here. With a room full of young people, I truly feel it’s no longer my world."

Old Zhang joked: "No hair on the lip doesn’t establish things firmly, you always need someone to hold the ground. Although I’m also old, I never favor the elderly, they are too cunning, always keeping a hidden agenda, making it hard to connect with them. But you are an exception. Big Sister, you’ve always been a pillar for our generation."

How could she not know his sincere intentions? Whenever he opens his mouth, any old friend would come, and today, who wouldn’t consider it an honor?

But he gave her such great respect uniquely.

"Alas, I’m old, only know how to eat and drink."

"I envy you, you have a good son. He can handle everything for you."
