Xu Wan met a man from her industry at a matchmaking party. Two days later, they got their marriage certificate.
She thought she had married an unremarkable corporate legal counsel.
Afte...
Gu Qing followed Xu Wan all the way to the entrance of the residential area. When she saw that the car that was supposed to pick her up had not yet arrived, she parked her car on the side of the road and rolled down the window.
Xu Wan thought of the scarf she had worn for Christmas.
She turned to Gu Qing and said, "Senior Gu, I have something I want to say to you."
Gu Qing quickly opened the door and got down.
Make it clear that you're going to listen to her carefully.
Xu Wan watched the man get out of the car and walk around to her side before speaking, "If I'm just being presumptuous, then I apologize to you first."
"you say……"
"Jiang Tingzhou and I are already married, and... I am also pregnant. The three of us will be very happy in the future. We are also alumni, so I hope you can give us your blessing."
Xu Wan said this to Gu Qing, but also to encourage herself.
Deep down, she firmly believed that Jiang Tingzhou would definitely come back.
It seems that this belief gives her more hope for tomorrow.
Gu Qing stood there for a long time before saying, "But... you've been married for so long, and he hasn't made your relationship public. Even now that you're pregnant, he hasn't given you a proper wedding. Haven't you ever wondered why? Isn't it possible that he doesn't even have feelings for you at all...?"
“Gu Qing!” Xu Wan interrupted Gu Qing, calling him by his full name. “My husband loves me very much. We have our own plans, and you don’t need to worry about them.”
These kinds of words couldn't sway Xu Wan before, let alone now!
The man's disappearance has already illustrated one thing.
It's possible that someone is deliberately trying to harm Jiang Tingzhou because of his identity.
This person has made his move now, and he may have even succeeded.
Jiang Tingzhou, a person of such high status and power, has been out of contact for three weeks!
Just then, a car drove up from a distance.
Xu Wan recognized the car that had come to pick her up and waved to Gu Qing: "Senior Gu, the car that's here to pick me up is here. I wish you find your ideal girl soon."
Gu Qing stood there, watching Xu Wan get into the car, her hands clenched into fists inside her coat sleeves.
He did try to move on.
But he simply couldn't do it.
-
As Xu Wan sat in the car, about to call Ling Ya to tell her her decision, her phone rang first.
The screen displayed an unfamiliar landline number.
Xu Wan hesitated for a moment, but still answered the call.
"Excuse me, are you Ms. Xu Wan?"
"yes."
"This is Chengying Auction Company. Mr. Jiang Tingzhou has completed the relevant customs procedures for the 33-carat pink diamond he purchased here. As per Mr. Jiang Tingzhou's entrustment, we must deliver the diamond to him or to you. Since we have been unable to contact him, we hope you can notify him or come to our company to complete the transaction."
The person on the other end of the phone spoke clearly and at a moderate pace, accurately conveying the message to Xu Wan.
Shortly after the auction, the internet was flooded with news about this pink diamond.
Before Xu Wan could even look at it, she learned of Jiang Tingzhou's disappearance.
She also refused to look at any more information about the diamond.
Unexpectedly, it was taken back to China by people from the auction company, and then...
It should be given to her.
Xu Wan didn't know how to respond for a moment.
The person on the other end of the phone thought she wasn't listening and asked to confirm, "Ms. Xu Wan, can you hear me?"
"I can." Xu Wan paused for a moment, then asked, "Can I go alone? Can I bring someone with me?"
The person on the other end of the phone thought Xu Wan was worried, so they quickly said, "Of course, you can bring your bodyguards. There's no limit to the number. If you're still not comfortable with that, we can also provide you with a dedicated bulletproof vehicle to ensure your safety."
“No need,” Xu Wan explained. “I wanted Jiang Tingzhou’s family to accompany me when I received the jewelry.”
"Of course, no problem."
The other party confirmed the time with Xu Wan.
After hanging up the phone, he sent Xu Wan the company's address in Beicheng.
Xu Wan asked Lü Weixian to pull the car over to the side of the road.
As she dialed Lingya's number, she sighed inwardly. It seemed she was destined not to be able to go to the law firm today.
