Ex-husband, Please Stay - C226
Silence just meant that he was angry at the moment.
But, why would he be angry? Being angry only meant that he cared. Could it be that even after eight long years, he still couldn’t let it go!?
A classic old song was slowly flowing inside the car. It turned out to be “Later” by Liu Ruoying. Zuo Ya subconsciously frowned. She remembered that this song was one that Yuyao liked.
The more she listened, the more agitated she became. She reached out her hand to switch it off. As the music stopped, the interior of the car became deathly quiet. Even the sound of breathing could be heard clearly.
Ji Rufeng was still focused on driving, and ignored her childish behavior.
Zuo Ya pursed her lips, her eyes quietly sizing up Yun Che for a bit, and then said unhappily, “I, my parents want to invite you over as a guest next week, can you spare the time to meet them? Mom and Dad knew we were dating and wanted to check on me. ”
“If you’re not a child, do you still need your parents to criticize you?” Ji Rufeng’s voice was very light, and when he spoke, his face was still expressionless.
Zuo Ya’s hands were tightly folded in front of him, and tightly gripped together. “Ru Feng, I know you’re busy, but I’ve already promised my mother. You just have to spare some time, it’s just a meal.”
Ji Rufeng casually placed his hand on the steering wheel, and laughed coldly in his heart, if he really went there, it would not just be eating. That’s what you promised, and I’m sure you’ll take care of it yourself. ”
“But …” Zuo Ya’s face was full of grievance, her soft and ice-cold little hand lightly gripped the back of his hand. “Ru Feng, just this once, okay?”
Ji Rufeng frowned. There was a long period of silence. Zuo Ya was overjoyed, and started chattering, “The food that my mom cooks is the most delicious, my dad likes to play chess, but his chess skills are terrible, if he wants you to accompany him in playing, you must give it to him. Actually, we don’t need to buy anything too valuable when we go back. As long as it’s useful, we can use it to avoid scaring them … ”
Zuo Ya’s parents were both in the salaried class, they wouldn’t know what to give away even if they gave away valuable things.
Ji Rufeng’s speed slowed down a bit as she tilted his head to look at her, then interrupted her, “Zuo Ya, I don’t have time next week.”
Zuo Ya’s expression froze, she bit her lower lip, but did not do anything. In front of Ji Rufeng, she was forever a obedient little woman. It’s okay, next week is fine, next month is fine. ”
“I don’t have time next week. I might have to go back to the United States next month.” Ji Rufeng replied straightforwardly.
Zuo Ya’s exquisite face instantly turned white, she turned her head to the side, looking at the vast night sky, she quickly retreated, her hands clenched into fists. Ji Rufeng, are you feeling very uncomfortable seeing that Yuyao already has someone by your side? ”
Ji Rufeng did not answer. He did not want to discuss this topic with anyone who was unrelated.
“And the more he remained silent, the more Zuo Ya got angry. It’s been eight years. Can’t you forget her? Ji Rufeng, don’t forget that she didn’t want you back then. Can you live with some dignity? “Ahhh!”
Accompanying her words was the sound of the brakes, Ji Rufeng’s face became gloomy, and he stopped the car by the side of the road, “Get out.” He coldly threw out these two words.
Zuo Ya’s eyes were wide open as she looked at him, she was not angry, and immediately got off the carriage, her eyes gradually filled with tears, and beads of tears fell down her pale face one after another.
Ji Rufeng could not bear it any longer, after calming down for a while, he said slowly, “I still have a gathering tonight, you can go back first, it should be easy to get a taxi here.”
“Ru Feng…” Zuo Ya timidly called out again, using both hands to grab the corner of his clothes and shook a little.
“Go back, I’ll call you tonight.” Ji Rufeng said again.
Zuo Ya wiped the tears off her face with her fingertips, and finally revealed a slight smile, “Alright, then I will wait for your call tonight.”
She pushed the door open and got off, the moment her feet touched the ground, Ji Rufeng’s car shot out like an arrow.
Ji Rufeng drove aimlessly on the flat road, and then his phone suddenly rang.
“Ru Feng, let’s drink at the Sanlitun bar.” Ji Yun’s voice came from the other side of the phone, which was accompanied by some noises and shouts, looking like they were playing around.
If it was a normal day, Ji Rufeng would definitely not waste his time at this kind of boring party, he used all his time to earn money. But tonight, he felt that he needed the help of alcohol to paralyze his brain. No, it was to numb his heart, which was still restless.
The bar was very lively. As the host, Ji Yun invited all of his colleagues who were together. He had just been promoted by a level and was already a lieutenant colonel with a bright future ahead of him.
When Ji Rufeng arrived at the luxurious private room, he only gave a symbolic nod to everyone and greeted them. After that, he found a quiet corner to sit at, and drank wine alone.
Ji Yun and the others were having fun, after drinking for three rounds, they had drunk their fill of alcohol until they did not know what to say, and what they should not say, they started to run around on the train.
Ji Yun, I heard that General Lu’s house has two beautiful daughters, one of which is like flowers. If you want to chase one of them, you will have General Lu who will be protecting you in the future.
“What nonsense are you talking about? My family has such beautiful women.” When he mentioned his girlfriend, Ji Yun’s playful expression turned warm. It seemed that he was getting serious this time.
Ji Rufeng drank more than half a bottle of Lafite, then picked up the jacket left on the sofa.
“Ru Feng, stay here for a while longer. We’ll head back together later.” Ji Yun stopped him.
“No need.” Ji Rufeng replied warmly as he walked out.
Ji Yun spoke a few words with the others, paid the bill for today, and quickly caught up with Ji Rufeng. He took the key from his hand and was the first to enter the driver’s seat. “Come on, I’ll drive you back.”
Ji Rufeng did not refuse and immediately sat in the front passenger seat. He pressed his nose that was hurting and asked, “Didn’t you drink too?”
“I only drank a few mouthfuls. I’m much more clear-headed than you.” Ji Yun replied.
Ji Rufeng laughed, “Do I look like I’m not awake?”
“Just don’t get drunk.” Ji Yun said as he turned the steering wheel, and asked again, “Are you really planning to live such a muddled life?”
Ji Rufeng subconsciously frowned, “I don’t understand what you mean.”
“Stop playing dumb with me. What exactly is going on between you and Lu Family’s daughter? ” Ji Yun suddenly asked.
Ji Rufeng looked at him through the rearview mirror, slightly taken aback.
“You want to ask how did I know?” Ji Yun smiled faintly, “Wasn’t your purpose in coming to the capital eight years ago was for a girl? As long as you ask Third Aunt about it, it’s not hard to find out if she’s the daughter of Lu Family. I just don’t know if it’s actually Lu Yuchen or Lu Yuyao.”
The corner of Ji Rufeng’s mouth slightly curved, the window of the carriage lowered by half, and casually lit up a cigarette, puffing out smoke indifferently. Who’s important? It’s all over now. ”
“Is it really the past tense? If you’ve already put it down, you won’t be out of the country for eight years. ” Ji Yun revealed everything in one sentence. They had grown up together, Ji Yun understood Ji Rufeng. This kind of reserved and profound man, perhaps he did not fall in love, if his heart was moved, it would be for his entire life.
Ji Rufeng was still smiling, but there was a bit of self-mockery on his smile. He flicked his fingers lightly and flicked the cigarette ash out of the car, dispersing it with the wind. After being silent for a while, he opened his mouth once again, his voice calm and steady, “Ji Yun, you think too much. I have been together with Zuo Ya for many years, and we are about to get married.”
Fortunately there were not many cars in the night, so Ji Yun’s car was moving at a steady speed. Holding onto the steering wheel, he turned his head to look at Ji Rufeng, slightly narrowing his eyes, staring at him for a long time without blinking, trying to find something on his face. But he was disappointed.
Ji Yun stepped on the throttle all the way down, causing the car to move as fast as it could, “Married? Ru Feng, I hope that this decision of yours is mature, and not impulsive. People are often easy to deceive others, but it is very difficult to deceive oneself. ”
After Ji Yun finished his words, Ji Rufeng did not speak anymore. The car sunk into a deathly silence, all the way until Ji Rufeng was sent back to the hotel.
“You’re not going up to take a seat?” Ji Rufeng opened the car door and asked.
Ji Yun did not answer and directly turned off the ignition, then pushed the door open and got off the car.
Six star hotel, presidential suite, it was extremely luxurious, Ji Rufeng had always been a person who understood how to live.
Ji Yun casually picked up a bottle of Lafite and two tall glasses.
“Haven’t you had enough?” After Ji Rufeng finished showering, he walked out from the bathroom wearing a loose robe.
“Mm, accompany me for another drink. I didn’t have enough fun just now in order to send you back.” Ji Yun had already opened the wine cup, and poured the dark red wine into the transparent goblet.
Ji Rufeng sat down on the sofa beside him and picked up her goblet, swaying it gracefully. After the aroma of the wine overflowed, he casually took a sip. I should congratulate you and wish Commander Ji a successful promotion. ”
“Come on, stop teasing me.” Ji Yun laughed, clenching his fists, he lightly tapped him on the shoulder, “The troops are so bored, if you did not run right before the battle, I would have become a burden.”
“That’s good too. At least your dad and my dad are satisfied.” Ji Rufeng smiled gently.
Ji Yun glared at him snappily, “You’ve been abroad for eight years, and have been abroad for more than three thousand days and nights. In total, you’ve only been back for eight days.
Ji Rufeng continued to smile warmly, in other words, he was indeed an unfilial child. Don’t talk about me, talk about you, when are you going to get married? I’ll give you a big gift. ”
“We won’t have to wait too long, she’s the only one in this life.” Ji Yun’s rare serious expression and warm smile.
He had been injured on a mission, and it was his current girlfriend who had saved him, and then, as a matter of course, the two of them had begun to fall in love and live together.
The two of them chatted casually, and before they knew it, it was already dawn. There were a lot of empty bottles on the tea table. Ji Yun and Ji Rufeng drank a lot, and this kind of life seemed to go back to the past.
Ji Yun had already drunk too much, his tongue was rolling in his mouth, as he said unclearly, “Ru Feng, take back what you like, don’t make yourself feel wronged by getting married with Zuo Ya. In this world, anything could be forced, but feelings couldn’t be f * cking wronged. Third Uncle had treated Third Aunt like this back then. Regardless of whether she was happy or not, she would snatch it over first. “This woman is made of water. No matter what kind of container she is in, it would just be in that shape …”
Ji Yun said the last sentence, before he slanted his body and fell onto the sofa.
Ji Rufeng was still holding onto the wine cup in his hand, shaking it gently while drinking the wine carelessly.
Lu Yuyao drove her own car home, and her body reeked of alcohol.
“Drinking so much wine yet driving a car, don’t you want to die?” Lu Yuchen nagged her a few words.
Yuyao giggled and pressed her fingertip to his lips, indicating her to be quiet. It would not be fun to wake her parents up. “Sis, didn’t I just come back safely? I’m already so old, don’t worry about me.”
This was because Yuyao had gone out with Du Linghao, so Yuchen did not blame him too much, “Quickly go take a bath, the smell of alcohol on your body, let Mom and Dad know, it would be weird if they did not get scolded.”
Yuyao was in the bathroom washing away alcohol. When she came out, she found Yuchen sitting on the small sofa in her room, holding a magazine on her hands.
“Why didn’t you go back to sleep?” Yuyao stood in front of the dressing table and carelessly asked.
Yuchen closed the magazine in her hand, and the cover was an interview with Ji Rufeng, “When Ji Rufeng and Zuo Ya were overseas, they had been in love for many years, and now they are getting married.”
The buzzing of the hair dryer contained Yuchen’s warm words. Yuyao’s hand that was holding the hair dryer suddenly stopped, turned off the switch, and looked at her sister who was sitting on the sofa. She revealed a smile that didn’t seem to care much, “Why are you suddenly mentioning this?
Yuchen was silent for a moment, staring at her eyes, those clear and bright eyes currently held a faint hint of anger.
Yuchen sighed lightly, and then casually put the magazine to the side, “Yuyao, I just wanted to remind you that you should forget about him. She hurt you enough eight years ago, don’t make the same mistake.”
“You’re thinking too much.” Yuyao muttered to herself. She turned on the blower again and started to blow her hair.
Yuchen did not say much. She quietly stood up and walked out of Yuyao’s bedroom.
Just that, when she returned to her own room, Yuchen was still tossing and turning, unable to sleep.
The youthful single love in his youth had long since disappeared with the passage of eight long years. He had neither obtained nor paid the price, so it was easy to forget. Yuchen understood her sister. If not for the fact that she was in love to the extreme, it would be impossible for her to give up everything.
Right now, the thing that Yuchen was most worried about was the Yuyao.
His love for her was intense and unforgettable. There was even the existence of a child between them, it was easier said than done.
Ji Rufeng, perhaps he shouldn’t have returned in the first place. His return would have only disturbed the peaceful life of the Yuyao, and Yuchen didn’t want the Yuyao to be harmed once again.
It wasn’t until the early hours of the morning that Yuchen finally fell asleep and still needed to go to the company to sign the contract in the morning. She woke up early again and when she stood in front of the mirror, she discovered that her eyes were already popping out.
She put on a light makeup and covered her dark face with powder. He dressed himself and went out.
Yuyao had to meet a client today, so she could not find the time to accompany Yuchen. She was accompanied by an assistant to sign a contract at the brokerage company. The signing went smoothly, and when they left, they heard that Gu Yihang was at the branch office looking into the matter, after instructing her assistant for a bit, she took the elevator up to the CEO’s office, since she knew he was there, she should greet him politely.
After the door was lightly knocked, a man’s gentle voice came from inside, “Please enter.”
Yuchen pushed open the door and entered. Her beautiful face carried a bit of a smile, and her entire person looked like a spring breeze. “Also brother Hang.” The voice that came out of Yuchen’s mouth was soft and gentle, if she called someone else, they would feel that it was fake, but when the voice came out of Yuchen’s mouth, it was dignified and refined, just like her own person.
Gu Yihang was currently looking down at the company’s financial statements, and only raised his head to look at her indifferently, as he politely pointed to the sofa at the side. “Sit first.”
“Yes.” Yuchen obediently nodded her head, then elegantly sat on the sofa and casually picked up a fashion magazine to read.
Obviously, Gu Yihang came to the branch office to check their accounts, he called the Chief of Finance to report on the work, and did not hide anything from Yuchen. Most of the time, it was the Treasurer who spoke. He was listening and occasionally asking a few questions. Although they weren’t much, they were all questions that the Treasurer had to be careful with.
Although he was sitting there, he gave off a bearing that couldn’t be ignored. This man’s natural aura was strong and unstoppable.
Yuchen didn’t really care about what they said, she only focused on reading the magazine and occasionally sipped a mouthful of coffee. She was completely transparent. This kind of quiet and tactful girl was always likeable. If she were to call him Wen Xue, she would definitely call him pampered nonstop and chase him out in the end.
She always complained that he saw only work, not her. Every single one of them made Gu Yihang feel extremely helpless.
After the Chief of the Finance left, Gu Yihang called the managing director of the brokerage company over, gave him a few simple instructions, and then began to look over the work plans for the next quarter.
This time, it was noon.
Yuchen finished flipping through the magazines, looked at the time, got up and went to his desk, smiled warmly and said, “Boss Gu, can you finish your work this morning? If you didn’t have a lunch date, would this little girl have the honor of having lunch with you? ”
Even though it was just a joke, she was still able to speak seriously. Gu Yihang smiled faintly, looked at the time, and then closed the document in his hand.
“Alright, what do you want to eat? I’ll treat you.”
“Of course Brother Yi Hang is treating. Don’t tell me that you, the big boss, want to deceive a small employee like me?” Yuchen picked up her handbag and walked to the elevator with him.
Gu Yihang put one hand in his pocket, a warm smile on his face the entire time, “Lovers from all over the world are worth quite a bit, you are so modest.”
“Is that a compliment?” The corner of Yuchen’s lips slightly rose.
Gu Yihang smiled back and asked: “Are you satisfied with the new contract?”
“Of course.” Lu Yuchen was very frank, the signing gold Gu Yihang gave her had increased threefold, so she was naturally satisfied. “Thank you, Brother Yi Hang.”
“I can’t accept your thanks. Merchants, you are worth this price. I am a businessman, so I won’t do business with a loss. ” Gu Yihang’s handsome face still had the smile of a number, but there was always a strong atmosphere, making people feel depressed.
Yuchen shrugged her shoulders frivolously, and laughed, “So it turns out that I am just Director Gu’s tool to earn money. Then I will have to choose an expensive restaurant today, and give Director Gu some blood.”
“Childish.” Gu Yihang smiled lovingly.
Yuchen was slightly stunned, this was the first time someone said that she was childish. At home, this term was exclusive to Yuyao. She had always felt that she was dignified and steady, but in front of the mature and steady Gu Yihang, she was indeed a little too immature.
The two of them sat at a high-end Western restaurant. Yuchen was, after all, a public figure, and no one was allowed to enter this place. If they were to be caught by the paparazzi and be caught in their trap, it would be extremely disadvantageous to Gu Yihang and his team.
In the eyes of the people, Gu Yihang had always been the image of the Three Great Men, while Lu Yuchen was the fresh and refined Sect Leader of the Jade Maiden Sect. Neither of them could stand any dirt.
“The steak here is good. The chef is a genuine Frenchman.” As Gu Yihang cut the steak, he introduced it to her.
Yuchen held her cheek with one hand and looked at him, she felt that he was a little absent-minded, and would check her phone from time to time, was he that busy?
“I’ve been to France once, but I’m not used to French food.”
“Then what kind of cooking do you like? I’ll treat you to it next time. ” Gu Yihang asked with a smile.
“Chinese cuisine. If there’s a chance next time, why don’t Director Gu treat me to a full Han Dynasty banquet? ” When she was with Gu Yihang, it was inevitable that she would feel a little bored. He was not too good at regulating the atmosphere, so she could only act as a joke.
“Can the two of us finish the whole banquet?” Gu Yihang asked, pretending to be serious.
“Indeed, it’s a shame to waste. If Director Gu doesn’t mind, it’s fine to invite my entire family. As long as there’s food, my sister Yuyao will be very happy.” Yuchen put the steak into her mouth and chewed it lightly.
Every movement he made was elegant and graceful. Watching a beautiful woman eat was also a type of enjoyment.
Gu Yihang’s warm expression revealed a hint of worry, he lowered his head and looked at his phone, the screen was still black, and there was no call.
Perhaps, he shouldn’t have allowed himself to be idle. Only when he was at work would he forget everything, including his uneasiness and longing.
“Are you waiting for a phone call, brother Yidan? Have I disturbed you? ” Yuchen asked indifferently.
“Nope.” Gu Yihang placed the phone beside his hand. His gentle smile contained a faint hint of ridicule, “Today is a special day, it’s a pity that I’m the only one who remembers.”
Yuchen put down the blade and fork in her hand, holding her cheek with one hand, she frowned, as though she was thinking about something. After a moment, she suddenly realized something. “Brother Yi Hang, today is the wedding anniversary of you and your sister-in-law.”
“How do you know?” Gu Yihang was slightly taken aback.
“I don’t have any good points, just that my memory is better. Four years ago, today, my parents took me to attend your wedding, and my mother even said that you and my sister-in-law were a perfect couple, a perfect couple.”
Gu Yihang only gave her an extremely faint smile before turning his gaze towards her side, indifferently looking out of the window. His dark eyes unavoidably carried a trace of bitterness. He had traveled to Bali with his friend, then flown to Denmark, only to give him a call the other day asking if he wanted to come and play with his. He said he was busy with his company, and she complained that he only knew how to work and not accompany her.
Regarding this, Gu Yihang could only smile helplessly. He thought the next time she contacted him, it would be when his credit card dropped.
Yuchen could see that he was not in a good mood. She put down the knife and fork in her hand, and casually pulled the gold napkin over.
She smiled as she handed the paper crane to him. “For you, treat it as a wedding anniversary gift. Thanks for lunch.”
Looking at the golden paper crane in front of him, Gu Yihang couldn’t help but smile helplessly. The wedding present should be a gift from the couple, but today, the one giving it to him was a girl other than his wife.
“Thank you.” No matter what, Gu Yihang had to thank her because with her appearance, this person’s wedding anniversary wouldn’t be so hard to bear anymore.
Yuchen laughed unconcernedly, and the phone on the table buzzed a few times, after she answered, she looked at Gu Yihang apologetically, “I have a temporary contract to sign, I can’t accompany you to your meal anymore.”
“It’s more important that you do business. I’ll send you off.” Gu Yihang settled the bill with her and left.
When Gu Yihang drove her to the signing site, Yuyao was already standing at the door waiting. She was here to help Yuchen check.
After Yuchen and Gu Yihang bid their farewell, he quickly arrived in front of Yuyao. The little girl was currently squinting her eyes as she sized up the Porsche that had just left.
“Future brother-in-law?” The Yuyao asked playfully.
“Stop talking nonsense. It’s Brother Yi Hang, my big boss, my parents.” Yuchen reached out for her and the two sisters walked inside the office building together.
Gu Yihang’s Porsche did not move fast. In the rearview mirror, the beautiful sisters gradually disappeared.
He held onto the steering wheel with one hand and took out his phone with the other. After hesitating for a while, he finally dialed Wen Xue’s number.
Gu Yihang was startled, he knew that he did not make the wrong number, but he still subconsciously looked at the screen, the note was his beloved wife.
He also called for an exchange in English. The other party told him that this was a bar and that the owner of the phone was currently engaged in a drinking contest with her friend. It might be inconvenient for him to answer the phone.
Gu Yihang did not say anything else and directly hung up. That night, he worked until the early hours of the morning. Shortly after midnight, he closed the file in his hand and had a short rest. He stared coldly at the antique clock on the floor as the second hand passed by. In the end, he had to convince himself that Wen Xue had truly forgotten.
On the other side, Yuyao, who was acting as Yuchen’s lawyer, saw the people on the other side. Yuyao did not understand the circle of people around them, and most of them were assistants. She could see that the other party was very sincere. There were no hidden traps or loopholes in the contract.
Yuyao did not like the negotiation table in the entertainment circle. After she finished looking through the contract, she found an excuse to walk out of the meeting room.
The Yuyao walked along the long corridor, bored to death. The transparent window had been cleaned until it shone brightly. This was an enterprise that produced luggage. It was rather famous in the country. At this time, the staff were all busy in the office and the corridor was empty. Almost everyone was there.
She leaned on the window on the stairs, slightly tired, casually played with her fingertips, and waited for Lu Yuchen, bored out of her mind.
As it was the elevator’s entrance, the elevator went up and down and there were occasionally people passing by. Yuyao was dressed in her new Chanel set, her face was exquisite, like an exquisite ceramic doll. Standing there was no different from a beautiful scenery, and people’s gazes would land on her from time to time.
The Yuyao did not care, since she would not be seen badly.
The number of the elevator kept climbing, and with another ding-dong sound, the elevator door opened and two men walked out, one in front and one behind.
Yuyao did not raise her head, but occasionally took out her phone from her bag to check the time. She could faintly feel a gaze on her body, the only difference was that this gaze seemed to be especially serious and focused.
She subconsciously raised her gaze, and in the next moment, without any forewarning, she fell into a pair of inky eyes that were as deep as the sea. In that moment, Yuyao heard her heartbeat start to speed up without any rhythm, with a panic that she had never experienced before. She almost wanted to run away, but discovered that her legs were as heavy as lead, causing her to not be able to move a single step.
When he was three steps away from her, Ji Rufeng saw her as well. He subconsciously knitted his eyebrows, then said to He Qi, who was beside him, “You go to the conference room first, I’ll go there later.”
“Yes.” He Qi nodded his head and turned around to leave. When he passed by Yuyao, his eyes stopped on her body for a second out of curiosity.
The corridor had suddenly become unusually quiet. Yuyao saw Ji Rufeng walking towards her step by step, but his black handmade shoes did not make a sound even when they hit the ground.
Yuyao’s heart was beating like a drum, as though she was going to jump out. It was at this moment that she realized with sadness that the memories she spent eight whole years trying to forget, had all crumbled the moment he appeared. It turned out that there were already people in this world who had been engraved in her heart, that she would never be able to forget for the rest of their lives. All her efforts over the past eight years had been nothing more than self-deception.
Ji Rufeng stopped in his tracks in front of her, but didn’t start off by looking at her. Instead, he lowered his head and stared at her with cold, clear eyes.
Yuyao was almost suffocated by his gaze, she could only be the first to break the stalemate. Following his previous tone, she pretended to be relaxed and said, “Director Ji, long time no see.”
“A long time? Didn’t we just meet yesterday? Could it be that Miss Lu has lost her memory? ” His lips curled up into an evil smile.
Lu Yuyao bit her lower lip. It was just as Du Linghao had said, even though she was a sharp tongued lawyer who could convince the judges in court, she had been humiliated repeatedly in front of Ji Rufeng.
After a moment of silence, she raised her eyes and self-deprecatingly said, “That’s right, I also hope that I have lost my memory. I have to completely forget about people that I shouldn’t have.”
Ji Rufeng naturally understood the meaning behind her words, and the light in his eyes flickered. He didn’t say anything back. He stood in front of her with one hand in his pocket, staring at her without saying anything for a long time.
He would not ask her how she had been these past eight years, because no matter how she replied, his heart would never be at ease. If she was not well, his heart would ache for her; if she was good, so would he, because the man who made her good was no longer him.
This man suddenly became serious, causing Yuyao to be at a loss on what to do. She stood there in a daze, her body stiff. Just as she was thinking about how to find a suitable excuse to leave, at this moment, he suddenly opened her mouth.
“Do you have time? Let’s have a cup of coffee… “Yaoyao.”
His voice was calm and light as he called out, but when the two words Yao Yao rang out, the Yuyao suddenly trembled. When these two words came out of Ji Rufeng’s mouth, it felt like an eternity to her, but to him, it was as if nothing had happened. There was no break up, nor had there been eight years of difference.
Yuyao lowered her head slightly, bit her lips tightly, but her eyes were slightly red. Her voice was cold and clear, once again pulling the distance between them, “There is time, but it is not necessary.”
Ji Rufeng never expected that he would reject him so completely, he looked at her intently, then suddenly took a step forward, his steps was calm and steady, the one who was panicking was still the Yuyao, she subconsciously retreated, his body colliding against the cold window, she unconsciously let out a cry of surprise, “Ah!”
“Be careful.” Ji Rufeng instinctively moved his hands and wrapped them around her waist, using backhand force, he very naturally pulled her into his embrace.
Yuyao’s soft body leaned against his chest. She could clearly hear his heartbeat, it was fast and strong, but she was actually still nervous about her.
After the sudden change in events, Yuyao knew that she should have pushed him away. However, her arms didn’t seem to listen to her words at all.
She breathed in the familiar fragrance of wood leaves, which made her want to cry.
“Why are you still so reckless? Are you still a child?” His voice was not the frivolous voice of his youth. It was low and heavy, but it was filled with love.
As if startled, Lu Yuyao suddenly pushed him away. She turned her head, her eyes filled with tears.
Silence again, a deathly silence. Ji Rufeng looked at her quietly, but when she kept her head down, he could only see the black top of her head. Eight years was so long, so long that they had nothing to say to each other.
“You have truly changed a lot. You always talked the most in the past, and you never stopped talking. In front of your fiance, you’re still so silent? ” Ji Rufeng’s cold tone more or less carried a trace of ridicule.
“You’re not my fiancé, so I don’t think there’s anything between us.” Yuyao forced herself to look away from the tears in his eyes, then she proudly raised her chin and looked straight into Yun Che’s eyes. She would not allow herself to be weak in front of him.
Ji Rufeng stared at her, and then laughed coldly, his long jade-like fingers slowly pinching her chin. He could do nothing, as long as he looked down on her from above, it would give people a strong pressure.
“I thought we had a lot in common. For example, our previous intimacy. When you were under me before, you were obedient …”
“Enough, stop it!” Yuyao took two steps back, her hands tightly grabbed onto the lapels of her clothes at her chest as she looked at him in panic. Was this handsome and steady man in front of her really the Ji Rufeng she knew? That gentle and jade-like man who wasn’t even willing to say anything important to her? When did he become so terrifying!
“What are you doing? Let her go! ” The elevator door opened, and Du Linghao, who was inside, saw Ji Rufeng’s overbearing look, and Yuyao stepped back, her face turning pale.
Du Linghao’s first reaction was for Yuyao to be bullied by this man. He quickly rushed out of the elevator, without saying anything, he raised his fist and punched Ji Rufeng’s handsome face.
