Upon arriving at the Qi Family, Gu You got out of the car and happened to see Yangyang standing absentmindedly at the door. She asked, "Why are you standing here, Yangyang?"
Yangyang looked up, glanced at Gu You, and then averted his gaze coldly.
He was in a very bad mood, or rather, no one in the Qi Family was in a good mood right now.
With Qi Cheng’s disappearance, everyone’s emotions were affected. Even children would be influenced by the family’s mood. Moreover, Yangyang was no longer a child. He understood how worriso Qi Cheng’s disappearance was.
Even if others didn’t ntion it, he could sense it from Ji Yunhuan’s emotions. She only hated that she couldn’t do anything at such a ti.
Bai Liyan and Gu You entered the house, where Ji Yunhuan was coaxing Ruirui.
Because Ji Yunhuan had sothing to do today, Ruirui clung to her, not letting her go, which made her quite distressed.
"Be good, I’ll go out and co back early." Ji Yunhuan coaxed.
Ruirui clung to Ji Yunhuan, "No."
"Why not?"
"I’m afraid you won’t co back." Just like Qi Cheng, before his business trip, he said the sa thing, saying he would return quickly, but unexpectedly, he hadn’t co back after so many days.
Thinking of this, Ruirui beca very worried that Ji Yunhuan might disappear like Qi Cheng.
Because if that happened, he really wouldn’t know what to do.
Ji Yunhuan listened to Yangyang’s words and sighed helplessly, "Silly child. How could I not co back?"
"Dad hasn’t co back." Ruirui’s voice sounded extrely sad.
Hearing this, Ji Yunhuan almost burst into tears.
Many things in this world feel like they carry a certain implication.
In the past, Qi Cheng wasn’t particularly good to the two children, so even when he wasn’t around, the two children wouldn’t miss him that much.
But this ti, unusually, on the eve of his departure, he was overly kind to the children, causing his re two-day absence to beco very unsettling for Ruirui and Yangyang.
Ji Yunhuan looked at Ruirui’s clingy behavior and recalled the scenes of Qi Cheng’s tenderness toward them, deepening her sorrow.
She didn’t know what to do, only that she felt very, very sad.
She gently patted Ruirui. Their current situation was challenging. With Qi Cheng not by her side, Zhou Yixiu had no intention of letting her go either.
Lin Zheng had just called, saying there was a problem at the company. She knew it was Zhou Yixiu targeting her upon hearing it.
Zhou Yixiu wanted to destroy everything, forcing her to capitulate!
Originally, Ji Yunhuan planned to visit the company. It was her goal, her hard work, and she didn’t want to lose it.
The atmosphere in the living room was heavy as Gu You and Bai Liyan arrived.
"Sister Yunhuan." Gu You spoke first, raising her head to look at the two entering, suppressing her sorrow and holding back her tears.
"You ca quite early."
Bai Liyan’s gaze fell on Ruirui. He knew Ji Yunhuan would be very worried about Qi Cheng at this ti, which is why he ca over.
Now it seed he certainly had reason to worry.
He asked Ruirui, "What’s wrong, Ruirui?"
Ruirui glanced at Bai Liyan.
Bai Liyan extended his hand, "Co here, let hold you."
Bai Liyan was supposed to be Ruirui’s godfather, but due to bad relations between the two families at the ti, Ruirui wasn’t taught to call him that when he learned to speak and later called him uncle instead.
Bai Liyan didn’t mind these things.
After all, what you’re called doesn’t really matter.
Ruirui was always close to Bai Liyan, so he didn’t refuse and was taken into Bai Liyan’s arms.
Gu You glanced at Ji Yunhuan and said, "We ca to see you because we were worried about you."
Although Bai Liyan didn’t say it, she knew Bai Liyan was concerned about Ji Yunhuan.
At tis like this, not being worried about Ji Yunhuan would indeed be odd.
Ji Yunhuan said, "Thank you."
Bai Liyan didn’t bring up anything about Qi Cheng. He was already trying his best to find Qi Cheng, but unfortunately, he had not succeeded.
Bai Liyan’s presence made Ruirui less reliant on her, so Ji Yunhuan stayed a while. Seeing that Bai Liyan showed no sign of leaving, she then went to the company.
Gu You accompanied Ji Yunhuan because she said she wanted to see Ji Yunhuan’s gaming company.
After all, Xingkong Gas was doing well, with many users. Being quite a hobody, Gu You had naturally tried their gas.
Ji Yunhuan, of course, didn’t refuse.
As soon as they arrived at the company, the secretary approached Ji Yunhuan and said, "Director Ji, soone is here to see you."
"Who?"
"Xia Duo." The secretary was also seeing Xia Duo for the first ti. In most people’s eyes, Xia Duo was a celebrity, so those who could et her were usually very excited.
Unfortunately...
Now, the re ntion of this na made Ji Yunhuan feel deeply troubled.
But she still went inside.
Xia Duo, with her back to the entrance, sat patiently on the sofa waiting for Ji Yunhuan.
Ji Yunhuan took a few steps forward and asked, "What are you doing here?"
Xia Duo turned around, glanced at Ji Yunhuan, and said, "Of course, I’ve co to see you."
Whenever one is down and out, there are always many people eager to gloat over your misfortune,
Ji Yunhuan learned this when the Ji Family went bankrupt.
She had long since beco very familiar with that feeling of helplessness and bitterness.
So, seeing Xia Duo didn’t surprise her in the least.
Ji Yunhuan said aningfully, "I know you ca to see fail, but..."
"But what?" Xia Duo, rather like a host instead of a guest, sat there without any restraint. Her brazenness was sothing Ji Yunhuan was well acquainted with.
Ji Yunhuan had Lin Zheng show Gu You around the company. She sat down and said to Xia Duo, "You’ve secretly loved Qi Cheng for so long, never letting go. Now that sothing’s happened to him, aren’t you at all sad?"
Having the nerve to co here and gloat over my misfortune is truly unexpected.
To Xia Duo, Ji Yunhuan’s words seed laughable. Xia Duo slightly raised the corners of her mouth, "I do like Qi Cheng and admire him, but loving him isn’t everything. I mostly resent him because he turned into this. To , I just can’t stand seeing you and Qi Cheng happy. Now, seeing you in such a dire situation, I’m feeling quite pleased."
"..." Ji Yunhuan frowned. She realized her naive hope that Xia Duo had brought so news of Qi Cheng, but clearly, she’d thought too much. Suppressing her inner disappointnt, Ji Yunhuan said, "Well, that’s good. I’m really grateful to you. At least it proves I’ve got one less troubleso rival."
Xia Duo looked around the office, "Ca over today to check out your place. It feels quite nice."
"So?"
"Being the boss of this company seems quite appealing, so I’m contemplating whether to buy it! After all, if run well, this company could very well beco an industry leader. Quite fulfilling."
