In the office building of the "Lingtian" Group, Ji Lingtian stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows with his chest folded. In his field of vision were the jagged high-rise buildings of the huge city.
The aloofness radiating from his whole body seemed to disdain the world and just wanted to trample the whole world under his feet.
Knock, knock——
There was a knock on the door behind him.
"Come in." Ji Lingtian spat out faintly.
After his subordinates came in, Ji Lingtian did not turn around, his eyes were still forward.
The subordinate spoke respectfully, "Mr. Ji, I found something..."
"What's up?"
"Lu Yuandong and Li Renjun went to Paris."
"Oh?" Ji Lingtian raised his eyebrows.
"My subordinates found out that these two people and Mr. Guan had met at the XX Club in Paris, but they couldn't figure out what they were discussing."
Ji Lingtian began to think deeply.
Guan Hao never plans things in advance, so the arrival of Lu Yuandong and Li Renjun may not necessarily be to help Guan Hao. It may be just a simple gathering, or it may be a deception method used by Guan Hao to confuse "m" and distract "m"
To investigate the behavior of Lu Yuandong and Li Renjun, so as to give him the opportunity to make the next plan.
"Is that all?" Ji Lingtian asked with a frown.
"yes."
"What's going on with Joss?"
"After Mr. Guan handed over the two criminals who kidnapped Qiao Si to the police, Qiao Si has been protected by Mr. Guan in the hotel where he stayed in Paris. In my opinion, Mr. Guan will take Qiao Si back to New York."
Ji Lingtian nodded. "Of course he would have such a plan."
The purpose of "m" ordering people to kidnap Qiao Si was to see if Guan Hao could abandon Qu Ranran and rush to France to save Qiao Si. Guan Hao's "cooperation" has successfully dispelled "m"'s suspicion that Guan Hao is responsible for Qiao Si.
Qu Ranran’s last remaining concern.
"Mr. Ji, there is actually some gossip about Lu Yuandong and Li Renjun going to Paris."
"Tell me and listen."
"According to the waiter at the club, the three people talking about that day seemed to have nothing to do with 'm'. They were talking about the relationship between Mr. Guan and Miss Qu. I heard that Lu Yuandong and Li Renjun learned that Mr. Guan has been troubled by Miss Qu recently.
He refused to accept Mr. Guan's matter, so he made suggestions for Mr. Guan..." The subordinate immediately reported to Ji Lingtian exactly what he heard from the waiter.
Ji Lingtian fell into deep thought after hearing this.
The subordinate said cautiously, "It's just that you can't trust the waiter's words. After all, Mr. Guan is impeccable in his work. How could he let the waiter in the club hear such news?"
Ji Lingtian thought for a while and then calmly said, "It seems that Guan Hao intentionally asked the waiter at the club to reveal this news to me..."
"Why?" The subordinates were even more confused.
"If Ran Ran turns to me for help, this is undoubtedly Guan Hao's victory in announcing to me his possessiveness towards Ran Ran. This will invisibly allow me to give up my coveting of Ran Ran. But if Ran Ran doesn't turn to me for help,
, Guan Hao doesn't have to worry that I will inform 'm', because protecting Ran Ran is the common goal between him and me... Since he and I have a common goal, we should establish a united front, Guan Hao asked the waiter in the club to reveal it to us
Such news is an olive branch extended to me."
The subordinate suddenly realized, "So, Mr. Ji, what should we do next?"
Ji Lingtian's eyes became strange as he looked ahead, and he said in a deep voice, "'m' will definitely put pressure on me and ask me to use Qiao Si as a breakthrough point to find Guan Hao's weakness. Naturally, what I need to do is to cooperate."
m', of course this is also delaying time for myself... Now that Guan Hao has extended an olive branch to me, and I want to get rid of 'm' as much as he does, then it's time for me to cooperate with him.
"
The subordinate was very excited, "The relevant general manager and you will work together, I believe we will be able to find out the 'm' soon."
Guan Hao held a glass of red wine and sat quietly on the sofa, his handsome face was cold and his eyes were dark.
Qiao Si just woke up, with her lazy hair disheveled, and walked out of the room...
Unexpectedly, she saw Guan Hao sitting on the sofa. Qiao Si's eyes suddenly filled with joy and she walked towards Guan Hao.
"Are you back?"
Qiao Si's voice was already pleasant, but now she spoke to Guan Hao in a gentle tone, which made her look even more intimate.
Guan Hao came out of his thoughts, raised his eyes and glanced at Qiao Si, "Get ready to go back to New York tonight."
Qiao Si should have been excited to be able to return to New York with Guan Hao, but at this moment Qiao Si lowered her eyes sadly and her voice turned into a faint disappointment, "Okay, just go back?"
Guan Hao's dark eyes had a hint of sharpness, "Do you know that I will let you go back to New York with me?"
Joss didn't answer.
Guan Hao wisely said, "Is it Zou Ji?"
Qiao Si quickly raised her head and spat out nervously, "Don't blame him. It was me who felt something was wrong, so I went to question him. I told him that if you pursue it, I will bear the responsibility..."
Guan Hao asked coldly, "What did he tell you?"
Qiao Si bit her lip lightly, her tone of voice unable to conceal her sadness and loss, "He actually didn't say anything to me, he just acquiesced to my suspicion... When I was kidnapped, I was really scared, I was so afraid that they would
I hurt the child in my belly, and I was afraid that I would never see you again, but I never thought you would come to save me. However, just when I thought I would not be able to escape this disaster, you suddenly came out
…”
Having said this, a bitter smile appeared on Qiao Si's face, "You can never imagine the joy I felt when I saw you coming to save me when I was desperate, but I didn't even have the courage to hug you.
Because I know you don't have me in your heart... We stayed in this hotel afterwards. Do you know that when I asked you if you wanted to go back to New York and heard you said you wouldn't go back for the time being, I was really happy... I longed to be able to go back to New York with you.
When you were alone, I also imagined that you might want to spend more time with me in France. However, I gradually felt that something was wrong, because if you really cared about me and stayed in Paris, you wouldn't let your subordinates tell you every day.
Regarding Qu Ranran's situation in New York, your concern for Qu Ranran comes from your heart. It's not like you being unclear about me. So, I went to ask Zou Ji... Although Zou Ji
Ji didn't say anything to me, but I understood clearly that you stayed in Paris not for me, but because of your business. Just now you asked me to go back to New York with you. I finally understood in an instant that I must be treating you.
It's useful, that's why you came to France to save me..."
Qiao Si has always been a smart woman in Guan Hao's eyes, so Guan Hao just raised his eyebrows at this moment and asked lightly, "Then you still agree to come back to New York with me?"
Qiao Si lowered her eyes that were already misted by water mist, and answered with a bitterness, "Of course I am willing to go back with you, because no matter what you want me to do for you, I am willing, as long as you are happy."
Qiao Si's heartfelt words did not cause many changes in Guan Hao's handsome appearance. He even put down his wine glass at this moment and stood up from the sofa.
Feeling that the aura around Guan Hao was still cold, Qiao Si's heart hurt as if someone had stabbed her. However, she never said a word of injustice for herself. Even when she saw Guan Hao leaving, she just
Biting her lips tightly, swallowing the bitterness in her throat.
Qu Ranran tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep.
Finally, Qu Ranran stood up and sat on the head of the bed, her eyes dull.
Suddenly, her eyes turned red, and tears slipped from her eyes...
She really wanted to cry, but she didn't want to be so fragile, so the suppressed emotions surged into her eyes, causing them to burn, and then formed large tears in her eyes, silently
Banging on the bed.
After a long time, when she was so tired from crying that she wanted to lie down on the bed again, a doorbell rang from the apartment door.
Hearing the doorbell, Qu Ranran sat up from the bed suddenly, her eyes widened.
There are bodyguards guarding the door in shifts. No one can ring the doorbell of this apartment casually. However, it can't be him. He has the key...
Thinking of this, Qu Ranran's thin body slowly leaned back against the bed.
She knew that he was fine. It had been three days since Li Renjun called her. If something really happened to him, Li Renjun would definitely call her again...
However, without seeing him in person, who can be sure?
The doorbell is still ringing...
Unable to ignore it any longer, Qu Ranran lifted the quilt and got out of bed.
When she went to open the door, Qu Ranran had already given up the idea that it might be Guan Hao outside the door, but after she opened the door, her thin and frail body froze in place for a long time.
Eyes facing each other.
Her eyes, which were still faintly stained with water, met his eyes that became increasingly dark at night.
The familiar masculine scent lingered around her, and she looked at that handsome face in a daze. In his eyes, she saw eagerness and desire, but on his face, he could see
He was tired after a long journey. It was obvious that he had just arrived in New York...
Even though she could force herself not to care about his state of mind, she still couldn't hide the peace of mind she felt when seeing him at this moment...
Guan Hao stared at the beautiful face he missed for a moment, and said in a low voice, "The key is in the company, I didn't go get it."
Hearing Guan Hao's voice, Qu Ranran's nose suddenly became sore, and the sourness had already reached her throat.
The next second, Guan Hao reached out and pressed Qu Ranran tightly into his arms...
Before Qu Ranran could react, Guan Hao pulled away from Qu Ranran again, leaned down and kissed her lips hard.
His strength was so strong and overbearing that it seemed as if he wanted to swallow her whole body.
It seemed that he had not tasted such sweetness for a long time, so eagerly, he invaded her red lips rudely, resolutely pried open her teeth, and drove straight in...
Qu Ranran had lost her mind and allowed Guan Hao to hold her tightly, letting Guan Hao occupy her lips and tongue like a violent wind.
The longing that still longs for him makes him not even let go of her tongue at this moment, entangling her tongue again and again in a way she can't imagine...
She couldn't refuse at all, because his arms around her were so strong.
Suddenly, Guan Hao reached out and grabbed Qu Ranran's waist, breathing heavily and pressing her to his lower body. Her body exuding a feminine fragrance was close to him, and her plump breasts were also squeezing against his chest at this moment. His
The passion finally broke out...
Guan Hao picked up Qu Ranran with rapid breathing, closed the door with his ankle, walked non-stop through the living room of the apartment, and placed her on the sofa...
All clothes are gone...
…
After the passion passed, he casually put on his shirt for her, and then took her back to the bedroom...
In the bedroom, the little one was still sleeping soundly in his crib.
He carried her into the bathroom...
After taking a bath, he hugged her and returned to bed.
Holding her in his arms and stroking her long hair, he felt a strange sense of contentment and peace in his heart.
Qu Ranran turned sideways, her lower body still feeling the pain when he entered eagerly...
Guan Hao's breath came over, grabbed Bai Xi's shoulders exposed outside her nightgown, and pulled her body to face him.
"Baby..." he called hoarsely.
Qu Ranran opened his eyes and looked at Guan Hao as if he had no soul.
Guan Hao stared at Qu Ranran deeply, his eyes still burning.
At this second, Qu Ranran slowly closed his eyes.
Guan Hao saw that Qu Ranran had her eyes closed and looked like she was tired and sleepy. He did not disturb her anymore and kissed her gently on her smooth back. He said lovingly, "Good night."
Early in the morning, when Guan Hao woke up from bed, Qu Ranran was no longer by his side...
In a state of panic, Guan Hao pulled back the quilt, put on a nightgown and got out of bed.
On the sofa in the apartment, Guan Hao met Qu Ranran who was playing with Yu An.
Facing the child, her face was unusually soft, exuding a strong maternal glow.
Such a warm and beautiful morning made him forget all his worries and walked towards her.
Qu Ranran instinctively raised her eyes because she heard the footsteps. When she saw Guan Hao, she was stunned for a second, and finally withdrew her gaze and fell back on Yu An, who was lying on the sofa and sucking his fingers.
Guan Hao sat directly next to Qu Ranran and held her waist, "The child woke up early again?" He always slept lightly, but last night, perhaps because he hadn't felt the peace of mind of holding her in his arms for a long time, he
I actually slept until I woke up just now.
Qu Ranran said nothing and seemed to be concentrating on teasing the child.
Guan Hao also looked at his miniature version, and his father's tenderness appeared on his young and handsome face, "I haven't seen you for a few days, and the little guy has grown again..."
Qu Ranran still said nothing.
How could Guan Hao not feel Qu Ranran's alienation, but he didn't seem to mind it at all, he stood up and walked into the bathroom.
When Guan Hao came out of the bathroom after washing up, Qu Ranran had already made milk powder and was feeding Yu An...
Guan Hao sat next to Qu Ranran again and watched Yu An attentively while sleeping and sucking breast milk. He couldn't help but admire, "My son is so cute!"
Qu Ranran also lowered his head and looked at Yu An, his peaceful face full of satisfaction.
At this moment, they were like a family of three in an ordinary family, enjoying the peace and quiet of the morning.
I don’t know how long it took, but Yu An finally finished feeding and slept more and more soundly...
Qu Ranran stood up holding Yu An and walked into the room.
Putting Yu An gently in the crib and pulling up the quilt, Qu Ranran still kissed Yu An's young face reluctantly.
When Qu Ranran was holding the baby bottle and preparing to go to the kitchen for disinfection, the moment she turned around, she ran into a thick wall of flesh.
Naturally, Guan Hao blocked her way...
Qu Ranran stopped in his tracks, not looking at him, but looking straight at him.
Guan Hao gently held Qu Ranran's shoulders and spoke softly, "I want to discuss something with you..."
Qu Ranran was silent.
"Although I promised you not to hire housekeeping staff, it is too hard for you to take care of Yu An by yourself, so I decided to move to a larger villa and hire a few servants to take care of you and Yu An... The villa is only two miles away from New York.
It's a ten-minute drive away. The air there is very good and the environment is quiet. What do you think of us moving there?"
Qu Ranran neither nodded nor shook his head, and remained silent.
"If you don't answer, then it's decided..." As he said that, Guan Hao tilted his head and gently pecked Qu Ranran's cheek.
Qu Ranran immediately crossed Guan Hao and walked towards the kitchen.
Seeing Qu Ranran's slender figure leaving coldly, the bright black light in Guan Hao's eyes slowly turned dim.
Before returning to New York, he had received a message from Ji Lingtian——
"Ran Ran didn't ask me for help. I was wondering, are you still in the mood to deal with 'm' with me now?"
…
In this world, there is always someone for whom you are so angry, but when you face her, you can't get angry, and you just want to pamper her even more.
