Later, when she was leaving, she deliberately avoided Huo Yigang and called a taxi to wait in the underground parking lot. She arrived directly at the parking lot without taking the main entrance and successfully avoided it.
She thought she had successfully escaped, but she didn't know that someone had already seen it.
Huo Yigeng had been sitting in the car. He didn't see Gong Qiu from the beginning of the meal, so he lost his appetite at all. He didn't want to stay for a second, so he left early.
Finally, he drove to the downstairs of Gong Qiuyi's company. He wanted to talk to her or meet her, but he couldn't press the phone in his hand for a long time because he didn't want to disturb her.
The word "don't want" often makes many wishes fail to come true, or it makes a person tolerate too many impulses.
He could just go upstairs and arrest people as boldly as before, or ask his bodyguards to bring people here, but this time he didn't do it. He knew that he couldn't do it yet and would need a little more time.
"Buzz buzz..." The phone in his hand buzzed and vibrated. Huo Yichang glanced at it expectantly. Later, the original excitement in his eyes disappeared and was replaced by a touch of loss.
"Hello?" Huo Yichang still answered.
"Would you like me to come over when I'm in Beijing?" It was Situ Zhi's call. It was very noisy on the other end, but you could still hear what he said clearly.
"wait for me……"
Huo Yichang hung up the phone, started the car directly, and drove away without any hesitation. His heart could not be so simple. He wanted to see Gong Qiu a few more times. Although he did not expect her to appear at the dinner, he
When I really can't see her, I feel endless loss.
Now he needs a little time to vent and express his dissatisfaction. He is not happy at all after being away for so long. Not a day goes by without thinking about her, but she is more chic than him.
Yes... Who is Gong Qiu? She can always be calm and endure loneliness. This is her.
When he first walked in, he quickly saw Situ Zhi. Situ Zhi was very high-profile today. He was sitting in the largest seat on the second floor instead of on the third floor. Looking at the table full of wine, Huo Yicheng quickly
Understand the situation.
"Sentiment hurt?" Huo Yichang asked straight to the point as soon as he sat down.
"How do you know!" Situ Zhi looked at Huo Yigang in surprise, but Huo Yigang smiled with a proud look on his face.
Situ Zhi did not tell Huo Yichang about his recent affairs. He knew that Huo Yicheng was very busy. To be precise, he did not tell any friends, not even people like Huo Yicheng who were like brothers. It is conceivable that
, how secretive he is.
"Hey, didn't I say that I met a girl I really liked a few days ago? I flattered her for a few days, and then I saw she had a boyfriend." Situ Zhi sighed heavily.
"That's good. It prevents you from harming others."
"What do you mean, I am also a good Chinese man."
"Then I'm even more sure that that girl is right not to be with you!"
"Why?" Situ Zhi opened his eyes wide and pinched Huo Yiheng's neck. After all, he was his good brother. How could he keep stepping on him? How embarrassing.
"Would your Situ family allow such a thing to happen? Your grandfather didn't let you marry Lin Yumai and Wang Jiaman. You should be laughing and thinking about finding someone else." Huo Yicheng was just telling a fact.
"Yes. What about you, have you reconciled with Gong Qiuyi?"
"Do you think I'm reconciled?"
"Hey, why are women so troublesome?"
Situ Zhi became impatient, but Huo Yigang was okay. He picked up the bottle and took a sip, looking at the dancers on the stage. The dancers in Kyoto were famous for their excellence, but at this moment, in his eyes, he felt
Ugly.
Situ Zhi chatted with his friend next door for a few words, but Huo Yicheng kept his face so that no one who knew him dared to approach me. In the end, he could only play with himself, while Huo Yicheng sat alone.
In the middle of the journey, Wang Jiamen came and took Lin Yuma with him. As soon as they sat down, Lin Yumai and Situ Zhi spoke with thorns and kept irritating each other. Wang Jiamen kept laughing as if he were watching a show, but there was almost no glitch.
"By the way, did you know that Chen Dingrui had approached Gong Qiuyi?"
"I know..." Huo Yiheng rolled his eyes, how could he not know? He raised his eyebrows and looked at Situ Zhi, knowing what he must have wanted to say.
"I heard that he gave Gong Qiu Yi a necklace, and Gong Qiu Yi accepted it."
"So?" Huo Yicheng didn't care at all, as if he didn't care at all. In fact, he was getting a little angry inside. He didn't know that Gong Qiu had accepted it.
"Is this a token of love?"
"Go away, drink it by yourself, I'm leaving..." Seeing Wang Jiaman and Lin Yumai there, he didn't want to stay.
Huo Yicheng was unhappy and didn't want to talk to Situ Zhi anymore. If he thought about Gong Qiuyi again, he would definitely become more and more angry. Therefore, in order to avoid such a situation, it was best to retreat.
When he returned home, he was filled with Gong Qiu Yi's scent, as if she was still there. In the past, whenever he came home, Gong Qiu Yi would either wait on the sofa or run out of the room.
What greeted him now was only the cold air with no warmth at all. He wanted to hug her.
I haven't hugged her for a long time, and now I feel like it's already a big gift when I get a look from her, so I lie down on the sofa frustrated.
In this way, Huo Yiqing would occasionally go to the downstairs of Gong Qiuyi's company to have a look, but he never saw Gong Qiuyi come out. Sometimes he would call Gong Qiuyi on purpose and cut off the call immediately after it rang.
He didn't know if Gong Qiuyi would pick up the answer. The only thing he worried about was that he couldn't think of what he was going to say after she picked up the answer. In the end, he could only watch the phone screen light up, then go dark, then darken and then light up...
Gong Qiu had packed up her things and left work. Gong Dongli asked her to go and play, saying that the restaurant celebrating Gong Chunxiao was about to open a second one, and there was no way she would not go.
When I arrived in Kyoto, I was booked by Jiang Yanyu today. It was a very crowded place, almost everyone of the same age was there. Gong Chunxiao was busy dealing with friends, and Gong Dongli waved to her as she just walked in.
Gong Qiu walked over with a smile. The closer she walked to Gong Dongli's side, the bigger her smile became. When she was only two meters away, her smile became more and more forced.
Looking at the man sitting in the center, the first reaction in her mind was, long time no see...
Huo Yicheng also met her eyes, and they looked at each other. He was holding the wine in his hand and was about to drink it, but because of Gong Qiuyi's presence, he slowly put it down.
"Third Sister!" Gong Dongli shouted loudly, so Gong Qiu walked over.
Huo Yigang was surrounded by his friends on both sides. Gong Dongli and Gong Xiazhi were sitting on the sofa opposite him. Gong Qiu was obviously relieved, at least they didn't have to be close to him.
"Why are you so late? I thought you had even eaten the midnight snack and are here again!" Gong Dongli said with a smile, holding Gong Qiuyi's arm.
"There's been a lot going on in the company lately."
"I almost thought you wouldn't come."
"How could it be? My eldest brother-in-law has reserved the venue. It will be very embarrassing if I don't come soon." Gong Qiu glanced at Jiang Yanyu and Gong Chunxiao who were surrounded.
The more they look at each other, the more they match each other. It seems like they were born to be together. They are also inseparable no matter what. Even though they have been apart for so many years, they always seem to be passionately in love.
"Let me tell you, before you came here, Huo Yicheng had been drinking. Look, he doesn't drink anymore." Gong Dongli came to Gong Qiuyi's side and whispered.
"Really?" Gong Qiu showed a hint of embarrassment on his face and forced himself not to look at Huo Yicheng.
It was very lively over there, with a group of boys making noise. They were all young men. After drinking, they ordered a lot of wine. Gong Qiu was a little worried after hearing this. If he drank like this, he would not only get drunk, but also make him sick.
.
Gong Qiu took out her mobile phone. She lowered her head and could feel the sharp gaze from the other side. The man seemed to want to devour her. She was actually very nervous.
Because Huo Yiqing was there, I always felt uncomfortable no matter what I did, as if I was being stared at. This feeling never happened even if I had a bodyguard.
When did I no longer tolerate Huo Yigang's behavior, and instead longed for more freedom and understanding.
"The eldest sister and the third sister are now bosses. It's great. I'm so envious!"
"Then you can do it, tell dad, and he will definitely approve you."
"Forget it, if you tell him, it will be fine if you say that I didn't help." Gong Dongli shook his head, saying that he had no expectations anymore and was just purely envious.
"Tell him seriously..."
Gong Qiuyi smiled and touched Gong Dongli's hair. After Gong Xiazhi and her friends finished playing, they turned around and came over to talk together. The three sisters were all here, and everyone around them came to say hello.
It's rare to see several sisters together, let alone a grand occasion like a banquet. The third lady of the Gong family usually keeps a low profile, but now that she's here, she always wants to have a good chat.
When Gong Chunxiao arrived, Gong Qiuyi happened to have to go to the bathroom. When she left, she looked back to make sure that Huo Yicheng had not followed her.
When she went back again, she saw Huo Yicheng and Wang Jiamian talking and laughing, and she immediately felt that he was childish for using such a method again.
This person scolded Huo Yicheng so angrily, but he still cared more or less in his heart.
He is always at his best in front of everyone. Even if he doesn't like that person, he will still show politeness and talk and laugh with the other person.
Gong Qiu lowered her head and pinched the back of her hand. She realized that she was overthinking it. Maybe Huo Yiheng didn't dislike Wang Jiaman. After all, they had been together for so long, not to mention it was their first love. It was definitely different.
As soon as she raised her head, she met Huo Yicheng's eyes. When she was about to look away, Huo Yicheng took the first step and was talking to Situ Zhi next to her. She didn't know what he said. Situ Zhi smiled happily and hugged her.
Holding his shoulder.
In just a few minutes, Gong Qiuyi saw Chen Dingrui waving upstairs. She thought about the money she owed him last time and it was time to pay him back. She would feel embarrassed if she didn't pay him back.
Gong Qiuyi went up with a smile. Chen Dingrui immediately introduced her to some of her friends who were playing with her. Gong Qiuyi recognized some of them from school in the past.
It's just that the other party had a tacit understanding and didn't say anything about what happened between her and Chen Dingrui. Even if they knew her current identity, they wouldn't mention her at all, just treating her as an ordinary friend of Chen Dingrui.
This made Gong Qiu feel that he was in a very comfortable environment. They automatically gave up their seats to Chen Dingrui and walked away with a smile.
"I'll pay you back the money I owed you last time." Gong Qiuyi took out the money and put it in Chen Dingrui's hand.
"Actually, there's no need..."
"I want it."
Chen Dingrui accepted it with a smile, because he knew Gong Qiu and she never liked owing others, so if he didn't accept it, she would definitely be very unhappy and would find a way to give it to him.
"Aren't you bored down there? Just watch Huo Yicheng and Wang Jian'an having so much fun so calmly."
"Well, what else can we do?"
"It's not like you... you actually said such words!" Chen Dingrui's tone was as if he had discovered a new world, and he was a little excited.
"Do you think I've changed too?" Gong Qiu asked cautiously, with a touch of sadness in his eyes.
"I've said it before."
"..." Gong Qiuyi curled her lips and gave a perfunctory smile as an answer.
"Huo Yigeng is also very powerful. In just one or two years, you have changed so much. I have been with you for several years, but I have not been able to change you, not at all." Chen Dingrui leaned against the railing.
, his fingers were touching the edge of the red wine glass.
Not at all, these six words were like a huge impact to Gong Qiu, breaking her heart into pieces, and this fact was recognized by someone who knew her well.
What she has been unwilling to admit is that it is not Huo Yichang who has changed, but she is the one who has changed.
"Okay, let's make peace. In fact, he did a lot of things for you. What are you angry about?"
"I'm angry that he didn't tell me where to go and what to do..."
"Didn't I tell you about my business trip before?"
"..."
Chen Dingrui stopped Gong Qiu Yi in one sentence. Gong Qiu Yi seemed to have suddenly figured out that it was actually because she was being stingy, or she started to want to know Huo Yiheng's whereabouts.
Even if he went on a business trip in the past, she would just know where to go and not care about what he was going to do. Even if it was something illegal, she probably had the attitude that he would solve it himself.
"Speaking of which, he doesn't seem to be planning to attack me anymore."
"Yeah?"
Gong Qiuyi asked, but she was not as happy as she imagined. She glanced at Huo Yiheng downstairs. He was always shining wherever he went and would be surrounded by crowds.
There is no need to take the initiative to make friends. Others are eager to chat with him, but he does not refuse or accept. The outside world says that he does things based on his mood, which seems to be right.
Huo Yicheng was upstairs. He had been looking at Gong Qiu since the first moment he came in. Seeing her calm face, he was so angry that he really wanted to pin Gong Qiu under him and watch her beg for mercy.
He thought about the explanation many times, but she seemed to do it on purpose.
