If ti could go back, he definitely wouldn’t have tested Jin that way.
Facing Jin’s indifferent attitude, he truly couldn’t bear it.
This would cause an uncontrollable destruction to spread within him.
Afraid that those around him would notice, An Mingji forcefully suppressed the obsessive darkness in his heart.
While flipping through the nu, Gu Jin casually said, "Hai, you look a lot thinner. Is the food there not to your taste?"
"It’s alright." Qiu Qianghai, bored, flicked through the nu, speaking with a smile.
Gu Jiajie quickly chid in, "It’s not that the food isn’t to his taste; he just doesn’t eat at all, spending his days with wine instead."
Gu Jin’s hand paused slightly as she flipped through the nu in her hand.
Then, she nonchalantly continued her actions.
She proposed with a smile, "Hai, have you beco such a drinker? Why don’t the two of us compete today? I’m still pretty good at drinking."
Qiu Qianghai elegantly smiled, "Sure."
After the four of them finished lunch, they moved to the tea room for tea.
During this ti, Gu Jin shared detailed updates on recent happenings at Shijiu Entertainnt Company and Om Company with Gu Jiajie and Qiu Qianghai.
Even though their respective assistants would inform them of these details,
Gu Jin conveyed a future direction based on her understanding from past and present experiences combined with the current state of the companies.
Ti unknowingly passed by.
An Mingji’s phone rang, seeing that it was a call from Allen, he took the phone and walked out to the balcony to answer it.
"Young Master, Madam is not doing well!"
With one sentence, An Mingji’s face changed drastically.
A darkness engulfed his entire being, with no emotional fluctuation in his eyes.
"I’ll head back right now!"
An Mingji hung up the phone and staggered back to the tea room.
"Jin—"
His voice was hoarse and low, and though it was quiet, it carried helplessness and confusion.
Gu Jin, very sensitive to his emotions, noticed sothing was wrong, and a look of concern appeared on her face, "What happened?"
"Aunt Feng isn’t doing well."
"..."
Gu Jin suddenly stood up.
This ti, Mrs. Darwin, An Feng, had returned to the country with them and was staying at Left Bank Pavilion. Knowing her poor health, she had visited several tis, aware that she was now living on borrowed ti.
But from her visit a few days ago, An Feng seed to be holding on a bit longer, so why the sudden change?
Gu Jin picked up her bag and quickly walked toward An Mingji.
She forgot about their previous cold war, reaching out to grasp his icy fingertips, "Don’t worry, let’s go back and take a look first."
"Okay." Gu Jin’s eyes brimd with red streaks.
The two left, hand in hand.
As they reached the door, Gu Jin rembered her cousin and Hai behind her.
She turned back, apologetically saying, "There’s sothing at ho, seems we can’t et today. Let’s find another ti."
"If sothing cos up, just go ahead and take care of it—anything you need, let know."
"Got it."
Gu Jin and An Mingji left.
Leaving behind, in the tea room, Gu Jiajie and Qiu Qianghai exchanging confused glances.
"The room is booked already, how about we go?" Gu Jiajie suggested.
Not really interested, Qiu Qianghai wanted to refuse.
But thinking that he had kept his day free to attend Gu Jin’s appointnt, and now had no other plans, he nodded in agreent.
...
Left Bank Pavilion.
Gu Jin and An Mingji returned in a hurry, arriving at the floor where An Feng lived.
The door opened, revealing Allen’s helpless and slightly worried expression.
An Mingji walked straight past him and rushed into the room.
Sitting in the wheelchair inside the room, warmly smiling An Feng, fell into his view.
The unease and apprehension in his heart, all the indescribable feelings, dissipated entirely the mont he saw her.
