The Maid's Rise to Be a President's Wife-Chapter 265: Is There Really a Next Life?
Chapter 265 - Is There Really a Next Life?
"I only love you," Ji Minze declared as he embraced Yiren. This was the first time he had confessed his love to her! It was a truth that he had only truly understood after paying the price of two years.
"I might not be able to do it. Everything is in the past now," It takes courage to open a heart that has been closed. Although this embrace made her feel so attached, the scar on her heart was still reminding her of everything that had happened in the past.
"Don't reject me so hastily. At least you should give me a chance," Ji Minze held Yiren even tighter and said. If he let go this time, then they would really miss each other. Because Yiren would definitely not come back on her own. She was too resolute.
"Give me some time to think about it," Yiren compromised. She still couldn't resist his request.
"Okay," Ji Minze finally let go of Yiren and replied.

"I'm sorry, but I have to go now," Yiren looked at the time and said. Long Zeming never had the patience to wait for others.
Ji Minze nodded.
"I'll come to see you tomorrow."
Yiren didn't object. She picked up her bag and went downstairs with Ji Minze.
Long Zeming saw Yiren and Ji Minze coming downstairs together, and it was really an eyesore.
"Let's go," Long Zeming said to Yiren, ignoring Ji Minze.
"I'm leaving now. Be careful on your way back," Yiren turned to Ji Minze and said, then followed Long Zeming out of the hotel.
Ji Minze watched Yiren's receding figure. He knew that his strong rival was formidable, but he wouldn't give up this time.

"Minze, you're back!" Ji Aier, who had been waiting for Ji Minze in the living room, stood up and said to her son.
"Mom, you haven't gone to bed yet," Ji Minze asked in surprise when he saw Ji Aier. He had gone for a walk along the Bund to clear his mind before coming back.
"Zijun said you went out alone tonight. Did you go to see Yiren?" She had watched the detailed report of the news later and was sure that the girl was Yiren! She had finally come back.
"Yeah," Ji Minze didn't deny it. "She still doesn't want to come back."
"Take it slow, son. Yiren is a stubborn and sensitive girl. If you give her some time, she might be willing to come back to you," Ji Aier sat down, poured a glass of water for Ji Minze, and handed it to him.
"That means Yiren might not come back to me either," Ji Minze looked at Ji Aier and said. His mother had always understood love better than him. That's why his father had only loved her for his whole life, because she had that kind of charm. But he didn't have it. He knew he loved Yiren, but he didn't know how to love her without hurting her.
"Then it depends on whether you can let go of Tang Lei," Ji Aier said without hesitation. There was no need to beat around the bush at this time. If her son couldn't let go of Tang Lei, then Yiren, who was so proud, would definitely not come back to him. If her son could let go, and as long as Yiren still loved him, then she would come back.
"Tang Lei is my sister," Why was everyone picking on Tang Lei? She hadn't done anything wrong except loving him.
"I know your feelings for Qianhe, but Tang Lei is not Qianhe. She loves you, and she doesn't see you as her brother! If you keep going like this, something will happen sooner or later," Ji Aier said. What she was most worried about was her son's indecisiveness. He was too kind-hearted and lacked coldness and decisiveness. "Find a chance to have a good talk with Tang Lei. Maybe she'll understand that feelings can't be forced unilaterally."
"I understand, Mom," Ji Minze said. Over the years, except for indulging Tang Lei's willfulness, he and Tang Lei had never done anything improper.
"Son, feelings can be complicated or simple, depending on how you deal with them. You should learn from your dad in this regard! Indecision is definitely not a good thing for you, and it's the same for Tang Lei and Yiren," Ji Aier said to Ji Minze seriously.
Ji Minze nodded. Whether Yiren was willing to come back to him or not, he should let Tang Lei give up on him and let her find her own true happiness. He couldn't waste his youth.
Yiren took Long Zeming to the "If There Is a Next Life" bar.
"What would you like to drink?" Yiren sat at the bar and turned to ask Long Zeming.
"Whiskey on the rocks," Long Zeming said. That was usually the only thing he drank.
"Xiaotang, give me a Bley's and a whiskey on the rocks," Yiren turned to her former colleague and said.
"Yiren!" Xiaotang, the bartender, recognized Yiren and exclaimed in surprise.
"o(∩_∩)o..., Long time no see!" Yiren showed a big smile and said.
"Where have you been all this time? You haven't been to the bar. We've really missed you," Xiaotang said with a smile and didn't forget to serve the drink to Long Zeming.
"I went to Japan. This is my boss, Long Zeming," Yiren pointed to Long Zeming beside her and introduced him to Xiaotang. "He's my former colleague, Xiaotang, and my good friend," Yiren said to Long Zeming.
"Nice to meet you."
"Please take care of me."
After greeting all her former colleagues in the bar, Yiren turned to chat with Long Zeming.
"Do you know why this bar is called 'If There Is a Next Life'?"
"Could it be that the owner of the bar had a broken heart?"
"No, it's because the woman the founder of this bar loved passed away from illness. To commemorate her, the founder named the bar 'If There Is a Next Life'. If there is a next life, they can be together. So many couples who are about to break up come here, and there's a good chance they'll get back together," Yiren introduced excitedly. This was one of the things she was most proud of, that she had been one of the bartenders in this bar. Later, she really knew the relationship between the woman the bar commemorated and herself.
"Does it really work?" Long Zeming said with a skeptical look. If it really worked, he could come here with Yiren often.
"It works if you're sincere," Yiren laughed. She believed it.
"Then since we've come together, we shouldn't break up, right?" Long Zeming turned to look at Yiren and said.
