CHAPTER 329
~STAR CITY~
By the next day, her plane arrived at Star City, and quickly she went to stay in a hotel. At first, she wanted to go to any of the houses Ye Cheng left for her to stay in anyti but then she did not know what had happened that made them pull apart and thought to just stay on her own first.
But by the afternoon when her grandfather called his house there asking if she had arrived, he found out she wasn’t in the house and called her line.
"Li Jing, where are you? Why haven’t you gotten ho yet? Did sothing happen?"
"No grandfather. I forgot and booked a hotel before getting here. So when I arrived I recalled and just decided to stay the night over first and tomorrow I would go ho."
"Alright. Do not get worried again. I cannot afford anything happening to you too."
"Nothing would happen to , grandpa. Be rest assured. I know this city like the back of my hand. I am safe."
"If you say so. Be a good girl and rest well."
"Take care gramps. Bye." Beep!
’One step down. Now, ti to move on to phase two. Ti to see what that CEO has been up to.’ Li Jing thought with a small smile displayed on her lips. ’First, let us call Zixin and Fen Fen.’
Ring! Ring!
"Hello, Jing Jing!!"
"Jing Jing?" Li Jing’s brows furrowed at the new nickna her friend ca up with. "Tsk... What’s with the new nickna Fen Fen?"
"You do not like it?"
"No."
"What? Hey, it is the sa as you calling Fen Fen." Yin Lifen frowned at her friend even though she knew Li Jing could not see it.
"Not the sa baby. You like calling you Fen Fen while you call what you like."
"I like Jing Jing."
"Sigh, let finish. You would call what you like that I like as well."
"Ohhh... "
"Yes."
"No way!" Yin Lifen stated clearly.
"Sigh!" Li Jing shook her head and ntally face pald herself. "I did not call to argue with you, Yin Lifen."
"Then what did you call for?" Yin Lifen asked, butting in.
"To tell you that I am here. I am back to Star..."
Before Li Jing could finish her words, Yin Lifen yelled. "Aaaaahhh!!"
"Calm down, young lady," Li Jing managed to get her voice to be heard after removing the phone from her ear and rolling her eyes at her friend.
"How can I be calm? Tell , when did you arrive?"
"Today. A few hours ago."
"And you thought to call just now?"
"Yin Lifen, calm down. I am sorry," Li Jing apologised.
"No. You are not. What have you been doing since that you are just calling?" Yin Lifen attacked, again.
Liu Jing shook her head and took in a deep breath. She knew that her friend was another case entirely. "I arrive barely two hours ago and I just settled in. I wanted to settle in before I put a cal to you."
"Are you sure you were not busy thinking of soone or you went to see him first, hmm?"
"Fen Fen," Li Jing called out her na in a warning tone. "You know better than that. That would be the last place I would get to after settling in and that is to show and tell him that I am doing very much okay and find out what happened."
"Tsk, do not be a killjoy. I was just kidding. Anyways since your heart still beats for him and only him, I think you should see him as soon as possible. Who knows, perhaps now that he has seen you, things would change."
"Not without a suitable explanation as to why he did what he did," Li Jing said with a stern voice. Even though her heart yearned for him, her head still wanted to maintain her pride.
"If you say so. Where are you, so that I can co and pay you a visit?"
"I am at a hotel."
"What!"
"Relax. I would go ho tomorrow. I just did not make the right preparations and it was as a result of the rush."
’Why rush? I am surprised to see you here and yet you haven’t t the most important person that brought you here."
"Ye Cheng isn’t what brought here. Lin Enterprise did. I need to start the new branch and ensure her prosperity and strong standing before leaving."
"Wait a minute. What?"
"You heard ," Li Jing simply stated and smiled to herself.
"But, I thought that you refused to co to Star City and decided that soone else would co and do it."
"Plans change baby girl."
"Nah. Tell , what influenced your decision? It must be very important for you to abandon the big deal at ho for this place. A city holding your worst mories."
"And my best ones too," Li Jing helped her finished.
"Such as?" As far as Yin Lifen was concerned, she did not see the good mories Li Jing was talking about considering that her whole life she was maltreated by her family mbers.
"Calm down. I ant my mories with you and Ye Cheng. They were important to And made my ti here worthwhile."
"I am glad I could contribute sothing to your life but don’t you see, you need him as well to complete the ensemble. To refill the void he created and bring back your true happiness. Gop to him, talk to him."
"I would try. Also, this has a big link as to why I am here."
’What is that, Li Jing? You are scaring ."
"Do not be scared. But know this, I would be needing your help during my stay here."
"Anything for you. Just say the world and if I can do it, I would do it with all I have got."
"Thanks, dear. Do take care."
"Bye, and be safe."
"Yeah."
