"Mr. Ji, this is a document that the young lady asked me to forward to you."
Ji Lingtian was sitting at his desk with his back to the door, and his handsome back looked inexplicably lonely.
"Put the files on the table!"
"yes."
"She's gone?"
"Yes, Mr. Gu is here to pick up the young lady."
"Did she say anything?"
"Yes, the young lady said, you will be happy." The servant conveyed Qin Zixin's words to Ji Lingtian intact.
"Did you say what I asked you to say to her?"
"I told you, she said she would come back as soon as possible."
"Well, it's okay, you can go down!"
The servant quietly retreated.
After the servant left, Ji Lingtian turned around in his chair and focused on the document.
After struggling in his heart for a long time, he took the file and opened it gently.
It was a very simple divorce agreement, with the lawyer's seal and certification, and her signature on it.
Knowing that it would be such an agreement, when he saw her signature in the lower left corner, an inexplicable anger surged in his chest and he threw the document aside.
He got up and returned to the room.
The room was very dark. He turned on the light, only to find that the room was so empty.
In the past, even if we were acting in the same room as her, she would only occupy a small corner on the sofa and not add anything to such a large room. However, suddenly without her, the room seemed to have been emptied of everything.
Just like that, it became empty and cold.
He put down his suit jacket, pulled off his tie, unbuttoned the two shirt buttons on his chest, and sat quietly on the sofa where she had slept before.
He didn't know why he was so impatient to come back. He should have stayed in New York until the project was completed, but his residence in New York gave him the same feeling as he did now. It was cold and cold everywhere, without a trace of warmth.
Why does he feel this way?
When she was around, even if they argued with each other and he wanted to crush her into pieces, he never felt lonely, and even felt at ease...
Today, she was just going abroad for a vacation with Gu Yuchen. This was just one of the countless separations they had made in the past ten years, but for some reason, it touched his heart like that.
He walked to the wine cabinet and poured himself a glass of wine again. He tried to use alcohol to numb the emotion welling up in his heart. It was an emotion he thought he would never feel again in this life...
The strong alcohol burned his throat, but he poured it down his throat one after another, just wanting to numb all the feelings in his heart.
For the first time in his life, he got himself drunk...
He leaned his heavy head on the leather sofa, holding the bottomed cup in his hand, and his dark eyes were numbed by alcohol and were somewhat confused...
A figure with a charming smile seemed to appear in front of me...
Ling Tian, have you ever thought about our future?
What future?
It's just... um... uh... you know.
What?
You're acting stupid again...you know it!!
Speak clearly, honey.
I’m talking about getting married!!
hehe……
Don't be careless about me, you won't let me continue to be like this with no name or status, will you?
Hehehe...
Hello……
Memories played like a slide show in his mind, and the corners of his mouth slowly raised, as if he was still immersed in the romantic and happy moments in the memories. The cup held tightly in his hand slowly relaxed as his body relaxed.
Sliding from his tiger's mouth...
Bah...bah...
The phone vibrated at this moment.
As if in a hurry, he tried his best to straighten his unstable body and took his cell phone from his suit jacket.
Without looking at the number on the phone screen, he immediately pressed the answer button.
"Ling Tian."
There was a sweet female voice on the phone.
His eyes were dazed, with a smile on his face, "I thought you weren't going to call me."
"How could it be? I miss you so much."
"Why didn't you tell me earlier that you missed me?"
"Hey, people tell you this every day, but you don't take it seriously, okay?"
"Then you say a few more words now, I like to hear..."
"I miss you, I miss you, Ling Tian, I miss you..."
"I miss you too, baby."
"What did you call me, 'baby'? You seem to have never called me that... Ling Tian..."
Ji Lingtian on the other end of the phone did not answer.
"Ling Tian, Ling Tian, are you still there..."
He fell on the sofa. At this moment, the phone was lying quietly on the cashmere carpet in the room...
------------------------------------------------------------ of
The next day.
Ji Lingtian was woken up by a knock on the door.
He sat up, his hangover giving him an unbearable headache...
He rubbed his temples, and after the pain subsided, he looked around.
He was in his room, but he slept on the sofa. There were wine glasses and bottles in the room, and the pungent smell of wine filled the whole room.
He shook his head and recalled that he seemed to have drank a lot last night.
Knock, knock...
The knocking on the door became more urgent.
He got up, walked to the door, and opened the door.
Sure enough, it was his daughter standing outside the door...
Besides his daughter, who else in the family would dare to disturb his sleep so early in the morning.
"Daddy..."
"Qianqian, what's wrong?"
Qin Ziqian smelled a faint smell of alcohol on his father's body, "Did you drink last night?"
"Well, I drank a little."
"Didn't you promise me not to get drunk again?"
"Uh, daddy..."
Qin Ziqian seemed to be just asking casually. There was something more anxious at hand. "Daddy, is mommy in your room?"
Ji Lingtian shook his head.
Qin Ziqian said worriedly, "That's strange... Mommy has been sleeping with me for so long, but I didn't see Mommy when I woke up just now. I asked my aunts and they also said they didn't see Mommy.
Mi..."
Of course the servants would not see Qin Zixin, because he had already told them last night.
"Your mommy went abroad."
"Going abroad?" Qin Ziqian asked in shock, "Why did mommy suddenly go abroad?"
"She went abroad to deal with some matters."
"What's going on?"
"Daddy doesn't know either..."
"Why didn't Mommy tell me that she was going abroad?" Qin Ziqian muttered in frustration.
Ji Lingtian knelt down, gently held Qin Ziqian's shoulders, and said warmly, "It's okay, your mommy will be back in a while...Daddy will take care of you during this time."
Qin Ziqian put her arms around his father's neck, looked at him with wide eyes, and asked tentatively, "Daddy, you haven't decided whether to divorce yet, right?"
Ji Lingtian was silent for a few seconds, and finally nodded slightly, "Yeah." If he doesn't sign, the marriage will still be valid for at least the next two years.
Qin Ziqian breathed a sigh of relief, "Then I'll be relieved... Mommy will definitely come back soon, she won't be able to leave me."
"Children, don't think too much about adults. Be good...Have you had breakfast?"
"not yet."
"Then wait for Daddy. Daddy will take a shower and change clothes. He will have breakfast with you later."
"Um."
…
After Qianqian went to school, Ji Lingtian also went to the company.
After staying in New York for about half a year, when he returned to the company, he discovered that there were a lot of things waiting for him to deal with in the company.
Normally, he would have been very upset, but today, he felt inexplicably enjoying being so busy. It seemed that only by keeping himself busy like this, he would not have any free time in his mind to think about other things.
In a blink of an eye, he had been busy at the company all day. When he got off work, his secretary knocked on the door and asked him, "President, aren't you leaving?"
He leaned back in his chair, deep in thought.
The secretary whispered again, "President..."
He came back to his senses and nodded, "Well, you can get off work first, and I'll turn off the lights."
"Okay." The secretary left happily.
Turning the chair to look at the floor-to-ceiling window, he realized that it was already dark and the entire city was already dotted with twinkling lights.
He stood up and pulled out his chair, picked up his suit jacket and was about to leave. At this time, he heard the "ding" of the elevator stopping in his ears.
Thinking that the secretary had forgotten something, he went back to get it. He immediately put down his suit jacket, just in time to explain the secretary's schedule for tomorrow.
However, at this second, what came to his ears was the crisp and elegant sound of high heels...
From this footsteps, he seemed to have recognized the person...
Sure enough, in the next second, Ren Qingle appeared in front of him in a beautiful dress.
At this moment, she was wearing a neat ponytail, holding a tasteful bag, and wearing twelve-inch high heels. She stood elegantly in front of him and smiled lightly at him.
Ji Lingtian frowned slightly.
Ren Qingle walked slowly in front of him, quickly slipped the bag in his hand, and put her arms around his neck, "My dear, I'm here..."
Ji Lingtian didn't hug Ren Qingle back, and there wasn't even much joy in his tone. He just said lightly, "Why are you here so suddenly?"
Ren Qingle said coquettishly, "Why did you come suddenly? You said you missed me last night, so I came..."
"last night?"
Ren Qingle said angrily, "Have you forgotten? I called you last night and you told me that you missed me..."
He vaguely remembered this incident in his mind, but the figure in his mind was not that of Ren Qingle.
"oh."
"Why do you just say 'oh'? Why don't you feel surprised that I'm here?" Ren Qingle complained.
Ji Lingtian put his hands on Ren Qingle's slender waist, "What kind of joy do you want me to show?"
"So you're very happy that I'm here?" Ren Qingle approached Ji Lingtian's arms and hugged him tightly with both hands.
Ji Lingtian gently took away Ren Qingle's hand from around his waist and said calmly, "This is the office."
Ren Qingle didn't hold back at all, but hugged Ji Lingtian tighter, "I know, but everyone in your company has already got off work."
Ji Lingtian still pulled away from Ren Qingle, "My daughter is waiting for me to eat at home. I want to go back now."
Ren Qingle blinked her bright eyes and said to Ji Lingtian, "Then I'll go back with you!"
Ji Lingtian's face fell instantly, "No!"
Seeing Ji Lingtian's livid face, Ren Qingle smiled and said, "Oh, I'm kidding you, I don't dare to live in your house, I'm afraid your daughter will give me a bad look... Look, my luggage
I've already taken it to the hotel in advance."
"Yeah." Ji Lingtian's expression softened.
"Then you go home and have dinner with your daughter. I'll go to the hotel to take care of the meal... But you have to come to the hotel to accompany me at night."
"I have a social event tonight."
"I'm here, can't you refuse the evening entertainment?"
"It's a business banquet."
"I don't care, even if it's a business banquet, you have to come to the hotel to accompany me tonight." Ren Qingle looked at Ji Lingtian aggrievedly.
Ji Lingtian took a long time before he nodded. "Okay."
The next second, Ren Qingle happily held Ji Lingtian's arm, rested her head on his shoulder, and left with him contentedly.
…
villa.
"Mr. Ji."
"Where's Qianqian?"
Ji Lingtian asked after handing the briefcase and suit jacket to the servant.
The servant replied respectfully, "The young lady is in the restaurant. I told her to eat first, but she insisted on waiting for you to come back."
Ji Lingtian nodded slightly and walked towards the restaurant.
In the huge restaurant, Qian Qian sat alone at the dining table with her chin in her hands.
"Sorry, daddy is late." Ji Lingtian apologized.
As soon as she heard her father's voice, Qian Qian turned her head and looked at her father intently.
Ji Lingtian sat down at the dining table, looked at his daughter's thoughtful face, and asked with concern, "What's wrong? Baby girl."
He bit his lip lightly and said nothing.
"Is it because daddy came back too late?"
This time he shook his head lightly, but still did not speak.
Ji Lingtian couldn't help but frown, still not guessing what his daughter was thinking.
Finally, Qian Qian lowered her head and said slowly, "Daddy, I miss Mommy."
Ji Lingtian sighed softly, "Call her if you want!"
"But Mommy's phone can't be reached."
"Can't get through?" This situation really surprised Ji Lingtian. "You said your mommy's phone can't get through?"
"Yeah, I've called Mommy five or six times today, but I couldn't get through."
Damn woman, she didn’t even answer the phone just a day after she left!
Ji Lingtian's face turned very ugly in an instant.
"Daddy, why can't Mommy's phone get through?"
Although he was full of anger, Ji Lingtian still had to patiently explain to his daughter, "It may be that the phone is out of battery or some other reason, so it won't be unable to get through."
"Then I'll call her again tonight."
"Um."
"I'm so hungry, Daddy, it's time to eat."
"good."
…
After the meal, Qian Qian went back to her room to do her homework, while Ji Lingtian paced irritably in his room.
With his hands on his waist, all he could think about was Qian Qian's inability to get through to her.
This woman, damn it, actually didn’t even answer her daughter’s phone calls. He shouldn’t have been so easy-going to ask her to leave!!
Taking out his cell phone, he finally had a reason to dial her cell phone number.
As Qian Qian said, her mobile phone indeed reminded that it could not be connected.
Just when he was feeling extremely agitated, his phone suddenly vibrated.
At first I thought it was her, but after looking at the number I realized it was Ran Ran.
He forced his heart to calm down and pressed the answer button, "Hello."
"Brother-in-law."
He seemed to be used to Qu Ranran's name.
"I called my sister today, but why can't I get through? I heard that you have returned to China. Have you seen her today?"
"She didn't tell you?"
"What did you say?" Qu Ranran asked confused, "Is there something I don't know?"
"She didn't tell you that she went abroad with Gu Yuchen?"
"No, she and Gu Yuchen went abroad?" Qu Ranran was very surprised.
How could she not even tell her about her sister?
Ji Lingtian's heart was full of doubts.
"Brother-in-law, please explain clearly, my sister went abroad? When did she go abroad? How could she be with Gu Yuchen?" Qu Ranran spat out anxiously.
"Ran Ran, your sister left with Gu Yuchen last night... She Qianqian called her today but she didn't get through. I'm trying to find a way to contact her."
"Even if I go abroad with Gu Yuchen, I won't fail to explain...Brother-in-law, will my sister be okay?"
"If she is with Gu Yuchen, nothing will happen to her."
"But we don't even know where she is now..."
"Don't worry yet, I will contact her."
"How can I not be worried? My sister has been a little weird lately..."
"Strange?"
"Yes, recently when we were on the phone, she always said some incomprehensible things to me, such as asking me to take good care of myself and so on... Because she always said these things to me before, I didn't take it to heart, but now
I can't contact her, I'm really worried about something happening to her..."
"You don't have to worry too much. She was fine when she left last night. If she really said that to you, it means that all this was her plan, and you don't have to worry about her."
"I can't be as calm as you, I asked Guan Hao to help me find her!!" Qu Ranran said this angrily, and then hung up the phone.
Ji Lingtian's face turned gloomy, and his mind was thinking about what Qu Ranran said.
At this time, "Daddy, Daddy..."
Qian Qian hurried in from outside.
"Um?"
Qian Qian panted, "I accidentally saw that Mommy left me a letter in the drawer of the bedside table."
"letter?"
Qian Qian anxiously handed over the letter. "Look."
Ji Lingtian took the letter and looked at the beautiful handwriting on the letter——
To Mommy’s most beloved daughter Qianqian:
Dear daughter, when you read this letter, Mommy has gone far away... Please forgive Mommy for not being able to take care of you anymore. I hope you can listen to your daddy and grow up healthily.
, don’t miss mommy.
It was just a short letter. It was obvious that Qin Zixin knew that everyone would be worried when they could not contact her, so she left this letter to Qianqian just to reassure everyone.
However, when Ji Lingtian read the letter, he crumpled it into a ball.
Qian Qian asked anxiously, "Daddy, what does Mommy's letter mean? She said she went to a far away place and can no longer take care of me. Will she not come back?"
"No!!"
"But what did Mommy mean when she said she couldn't take care of me anymore?"
Although his heart was filled with anger, Ji Lingtian still showed calmness and patiently coaxed Qianqian, "Your mommy told me last night that she was just leaving for a while and she will be back soon. She is just afraid of you."
I miss her, so I left you this letter."
Hearing what her father said, Qian Qian breathed a sigh of relief and patted her chest, "I was scared to death. I thought Mommy wouldn't come back..."
Ji Lingtian rubbed his daughter's hair and said, "Fool, why won't your mommy come back? She...how could she be willing to leave you?"
Qian Qian nodded, "Well, Mommy won't be willing to leave me behind. She will definitely come back."
…
Ji Lingtian finally coaxed Qian Qian to sleep.
Silence returned to his room again.
Ji Lingtian saw the paper he had just thrown away in the corner, and his thoughts were confused...
Suddenly, he picked up his cell phone and dialed a series of numbers.
He ordered his men to find the whereabouts of Qin Zixin!!
He thought he wouldn't care about her whereabouts at all, but when he saw the letter she left behind, in addition to the overwhelming anger aroused in his chest, he felt even more panic.
The obvious meaning of her letter was to tell Qianqian that she would not come back...
Although the twelve-year-old child still couldn't understand, he clearly understood the meaning between the lines of her words.
How could she not come back?
No, he will never allow it!!
------------------------------------------------------------ of
That night, Ji Lingtian didn't go anywhere. He sat on the sofa in the room, waiting for news from his subordinates about Qin Zixin.
At nine o'clock in the evening, news came from his subordinates that Qin Zixin's whereabouts could not be found.
At one o'clock in the morning, news came from his subordinates again. There was still no whereabouts of Qin Zixin. There were no records of Qin Zixin's situation at major airports.
At four o'clock in the morning, he called Guan Hao like crazy.
Over the years, he rarely called Guan Hao, but this time, it was for Qin Zixin.
Guan Hao had obviously guessed why Ji Lingtian was looking for him, so before Ji Lingtian could ask, he already answered, "It's not me."
Ji Lingtian gritted his teeth and said angrily, "If you hadn't helped her conceal her whereabouts, how could she have evaporated and disappeared like air?"
Guan Hao calmly replied, "If she wants to hide from you, she will naturally not let you find her."
"There is no need for her to avoid me!!"
"Of course it is necessary... She can only start her new life by staying away from you. She has given up on you. Brother, don't you know how to wake up?"
"I don't need you to preach!!" After saying that, Ji Lingtian ended the call.
…
Early the next morning, Ji Lingtian had breakfast with Qian Qian as if nothing had happened, and personally sent Qian Qian to school.
Qian Qian is a child after all. After he promised that Qin Zixin would come back, she believed what he said and went to school with peace of mind.
He went to the company, and when he saw Ren Qingle waiting for him in front of the company's gate, he realized that he not only missed the important business banquet last night, but also forgot that Ren Qingle was waiting for him.
When Ren Qingle saw him, he didn't complain, he just turned around and left in silence.
He quickly caught up with her and hugged her. "Where are you going?"
Ren Qingle struggled in his arms, "Go back to New York!!"
He waved his hand, and the driver, Lao Chen, drove over.
He pulled Ren Qingle and got into the carriage together.
As soon as he got in the car, Ren Qingle shouted hysterically, "Ji Lingtian, do you really care about me?"
"Qingle, I'm sorry about what happened last night..."
Ren Qingle's eyes were instantly filled with mist, and she choked with sobs, "I waited for you in the hotel all night, but you never came..."
"sorry……"
"I don't want you to say 'I'm sorry' to me. I just want you to tell me, do you really care about me?" Two lines of tears slowly slid down Ren Qingle's cheeks. She shook her head, as if she was extremely heartbroken.
.
"Of course I care about you..."
"If you really cared about me, you wouldn't have let me stay in the hotel alone last night!!"
"I really had something wrong last night..."
"What's the matter?" Ren Qingle looked at him aggressively, "I'm afraid it's something related to Qin Zixin again, right?"
Ji Lingtian did not deny it.
Ren Qingle suddenly laughed infatuatedly, "I'm too stupid to believe that you really don't have any feelings for Qin Zixin as a couple."
"Qingle..."
"Don't call me, Ji Lingtian, I am not your plaything to stimulate Qin Zixin. If you think I will continue to play this game with you, you are wrong!!" Ren Qingle opened the car door angrily.
Ji Lingtian held Ren Qingle's hand in time as she got out of the car. Sen Leng said to her, "Don't be like this. You know, I don't want a woman who makes trouble without reason."
Ren Qingle fiercely shook off Ji Lingtian's hand, "Ji Lingtian, admit it, you don't care about me at all... You came to me, but you just wanted to find someone to divert your obsession with that person. Are you afraid that you will be like before?"
Being unable to extricate yourself like that, you are afraid that you will be hurt again... so you dare not admit your love for Qin Zixin!!"
Ji Lingtian said in a cold voice, "My patience has its limits, don't let me break this limit."
Ren Qingle still smiled coldly, "Now I finally understand why you called me 'baby' last night...I think that was your nickname for Qin Zixin in the past, right?"
Ji Lingtian's cold expression turned dark instantly.
Ren Qingle quickly wiped away the tears around his eyes, tried to maintain his usual proud posture, and said with a silly smile, "You said you don't care about Qin Zixin, right? Well... within a week, as long as you divorce Qin Zixin, even if you don't now
Marry me and I will wait for you forever!!"
Ji Lingtian's deep pupils shrank slightly.
At this second, Ren Qingle bent down and kissed Ji Lingtian's face gently, then turned and left without hesitation.
After Ren Qingle left, Ji Lingtian punched the inner wall of the car with all his strength, and finally leaned slumped on the car seat.
Lao Chen saw Ji Lingtian's tired look through the rearview mirror and couldn't help but said, "Mr. Ji, you look very tired. Do you want me to take you back to have a rest?"
Ji Lingtian waved his hand to signal Lao Chen to remain silent.
Lao Chen didn't dare to say anything more, and the car became quiet again.
Ji Lingtian waited for a long time before asking, "Have you given the young lady a ride recently?"
"Yes, Mr. Ji, the young lady went out two days ago."
"What's she doing out there?"
"I don't know about that. The young lady didn't ask me to follow you, but the young lady answered a phone call in the car that day - the call was very strange..."
Ji Lingtian opened his eyes suddenly and asked sensitively, "What phone?"
Lao Chen answered truthfully, "I didn't hear it very clearly. I just heard her calling the person on the phone who was my minister, and then saying that her physical condition was fine and that she took her medicine on time and so on... because the young lady's recent death
My mental state was really bad, so I couldn't help but ask the young lady if she was sick, but the young lady said she was fine, so this thing made me a little strange."
"In bad spirits?"
Once Lao Chen mentioned this matter, Ji Lingtian couldn't help but become sensitive.
It seems that in the past six months, her face has not been very good...
He wanted to ask her about her health several times, but because he couldn't let her down to make her feel that he cared about her, he never asked...
Thinking about it now, when she came back this time, her spirit was obviously worse...
When I saw her yesterday, her face was so pale that there was no trace of blood, and her body was even thinner and seemed to be crumbling...
It's a pity that he didn't pay attention to this issue last night.
Is she sick?
------------------------------------------------------------ of
Ji Lingtian was not busy with any official business in the past two days. He ordered people to check all the hospitals, large and small, in Y City, trying to find Qin Zixin's admission records. However, for two whole days, he found nothing. There was no hospital where Qin Zixin was admitted.
Related records.
Ji Lingtian is at a loss...
For some reason, when Lao Chen told her that she might have a physical condition, he felt particularly uneasy.
Time passed three days later, and it had been five days since Qin Zixin left, but Ji Lingtian still couldn't find Qin Zixin's whereabouts.
Qian Qian asks him every day - when will mommy come back? He can still tolerate his daughter's patience for the time being, but if this continues for a long time, he is afraid that he will not be able to hide it in the end...
Why does she plan not to come back?
Based on his understanding of her, she loved Qian Qian so much, and there was absolutely no way she would give up Qian Qian for anyone or anything, unless...
Knock, knock.
A knock on the door interrupted Ji Lingtian's thoughts.
"Come in."
The servant walked into the study and respectfully reported, "Mr. Ji, there is a lady named Gu looking for you outside."
"Last name is Gu?"
"Yes, that's what she said."
"Invite her in!"
"OK."
Ji Lingtian came to the hall of the villa. The servants had already invited the guests to sit down on the sofa in the hall.
Ji Lingtian sat down opposite the woman named Gu. When he saw the young woman smiling at him again, the dusty memories in his mind suddenly opened...
The next second, he thought of her, Gu Ruoying - Qin Zixin's best friend.
"Mr. Ji, long time no see." Gu Ruoying was the first to say hello.
Ji Lingtian responded politely, "It's been a long time indeed."
Gu Ruoying looked at Ji Lingtian's face and said with a smile, "Mr. Ji has not changed at all, he is still as handsome as he was more than ten years ago."
"You are the same, you are still so young and beautiful."
"Mr. Ji, you are so grateful. I am already married and have children, and now I am the mother of two children."
"congratulations."
"I congratulate you too. I know that you and Zi Xin are married."
Ji Lingtian leaned back on the sofa, facing Gu Ruoying's blessing eyes, he didn't explain anything.
Gu Ruoying looked at the second floor, "Isn't Zi Xin at home?"
Ji Lingtian just replied calmly, "She went abroad."
"Ah?" Gu Ruoying said regretfully, "What a coincidence. I finally returned to China, but she went abroad."
"What, you want to see her for something?"
Gu Ruoying shook her head, "When the news of your marriage to Zi Xin was reported in the newspaper a few months ago, I wanted to come back and see Zi Xin. After all, we haven't contacted her for so many years. I miss her... but now I'm two
I am a mother of two children and have lived abroad all year round. It is really not easy for me to come back. If my husband hadn’t come to Y city to handle some business matters this time, I would have forced my husband to take me back to China. Otherwise, I would
There was no chance to see Zi Xin at all."
"I'm afraid she won't be back soon."
"Really?" Gu Ruoying sighed heavily, "It's really a pity that she and I haven't seen each other for so many years."
Ji Lingtian frowned slightly, "Hasn't she contacted you?"
"This heartless woman, I'm afraid she has forgotten me a long time ago..."
"How could it be? She has always regarded you as a sister."
"Then why didn't she contact me?"
"Maybe there is a reason for her!"
"Anyway, now that she and you have finally achieved success, I'm still very happy for you two."
"Thanks."
"Since I didn't meet Zi Xin today, I'll leave my contact information with Zi Xin. When Zi Xin comes back, you can ask her to contact me." With that, Gu Ruoying wrote her mobile phone number on a note.
, handed it to Ji Lingtian.
Ji Lingtian took the note and said quickly, "Your surname is Gu... So, who are you, Gu Yuchen?"
"You mean my cousin?"
"Gu Yuchen is your cousin?"
Gu Ruoying nodded, "Yes, Gu Yuchen is my cousin, do you know him?"
"Oh...well, he is the chairman of the International Business Council, and sometimes we have work cooperation."
"Yes, my cousin is the new International Business Chairman. I almost forgot about it..."
"Do you know where your cousin is now?"
"I haven't seen him for a long time, but I heard my aunt say some time ago that he seems to be in the UK... He has been working in New York in the past few years. I don't know why he suddenly went to the UK."
"U.K?"
"Yes, I heard that he took a leave of absence recently. I don't know what he was busy with. Maybe it was a personal matter. My aunt has been urging him to get married quickly!"
"Thank you Ruoying, you helped me a lot."
"Ah? What did I help you with?" Gu Ruoying asked confused.
Ji Lingtian showed a faint smile, "Nothing...I'm very happy to see you. If Zixin comes back, I will definitely ask her to call you."
"Okay, Mr. Ji, I'll go back first."
"Okay, let's go slowly." Ji Lingtian got up and saw Gu Ruoying off.
Gu Ruoying bowed her head politely to Ji Lingtian and then turned to leave. However, after taking a few steps, she suddenly turned around and asked Ji Lingtian with a faint smile, "Mr. Ji, there have been some news about you in the newspapers recently, what about you?"
Isn’t it true?”
The news that Gu Ruoying was referring to was naturally the scandal between Ji Lingtian and Ren Qingle.
Ji Lingtian replied lightly, "It's just a joke in the shopping mall!"
Gu Ruoying nodded and breathed a sigh of relief, "Then I'm relieved... I wish you and Zi Xin happiness. I will visit you again when I have time."
"Okay, bye."
…
Watching Gu Ruoying leave, Ji Lingtian put the phone to his ear and commanded the person on the other end of the phone majestically, "Check where Gu Yuchen lives in the UK!"
