Gu Qing leaned forward slightly, "Xu Wan, I've decided on you for the rest of my life. If your husband hadn't done that, I would have been willing to keep this feeling to myself. But Jiang Tingzhou has been out of contact for four years. Even if you can be alone... Xiao Xiao should have a father, right?"

Xu Wan had no way of telling Jiang Tingzhou that he had returned.

She could only turn her face away, saying, "This is my own business."

After that summit, Gu Qingzai thoroughly investigated Ryan.

Ryan's life story is very complete.

If Gu Qing hadn't witnessed his entanglement with Xu Wan that day, she would definitely have believed it all.

But that day he saw the way Ryan looked at Xu Wan.

It's impossible for someone who has never been to China to develop those kinds of feelings for Xu Wansheng.

Later, it was also discovered that Ryan and Su Ziyu had close contact, which further confirmed his suspicions.

Gu Qing, unaware of the situation between Xu Wan and Jiang Tingzhou, deliberately said, "Xu Wan, I believe that as long as Jiang Tingzhou is alive, as long as he has a breath left, he will definitely contact you. He hasn't contacted you for so long, so he must be no longer in this world. I hope you can get out of the shadows of the past, give yourself a chance, and let Xiaoxiao have a complete family..."

Xu Wan was unaware that Gu Qing had guessed everything.

She turned her head to look at the man, a hint of melancholy in her eyes. "Perhaps he's alive, but doesn't want to tell me?"

“Impossible!” Gu Qing said firmly. “If I were him, no matter what happened, I would overcome all difficulties to come back to you. His feelings for you are only deeper than mine. I believe that as long as he is alive, he will come to see you, unless he changes his mind.”

Xu Wan lowered her eyes slightly.

Gu Qing added, "I actually talked to him before. He loves you very much. Now that you have Xiaoxiao, there's no reason for him not to contact you as long as he's still alive."

Xu Wan had no idea that Gu Qing knew everything.

She felt that Jiang Tingzhou refused to face the things that outsiders could clearly see.

Soon after, an announcement was made to board.

Xu Wan then realized that Gu Qing and she were on the same flight.

Once on the plane, Gu Qing asked Xu Wan what she was going to do in Nancheng.

Xu Wan didn't hide anything from him and told him the truth.

"You're doing so well in the north, why are you suddenly going to the south? What about Xiaoxiao? She's just gotten used to the kindergarten environment, it's not good to switch to a new one right away." Gu Qing didn't try to persuade her, but instead said, "I have a lot of classmates who graduated and are now in the south. If you need any help, just tell me and I'll help you."

He emphasized, "Anything is fine."

Xu Wan thanked Gu Qing for her kindness.

But she didn't actually intend to ask him for help.

She knew very well that no matter how small the matter was, as long as she spoke up, her relationship with Gu Qing might undergo subtle changes.

Xiaoxiao definitely needs her father's company.

This alone is very likely to make her back down.

Xu arrived at the law firm at 1 p.m. for an interview.

She was interviewed by two law firm partners, which shows how much importance they placed on her.

The interview went very smoothly. The other party offered very generous terms, even promising that as long as she came, they could provide her with an apartment that she could use for life, and they could also handle things like enrolling her child in kindergarten.

Xu Wan felt the other party's sincerity and said that she would resign as soon as she returned to Beicheng.

As she walked out of the law firm, she found a WeChat message on her phone from Gu Qing.

[Is the interview over? I have to rush back to Beicheng tonight, but I have time to grab dinner. I know a good restaurant; I remember you owe me a meal, so how about we do you the honor of joining me today?]

Xu Wan looked at the WeChat messages and then remembered.

Back then, Gu Qing helped her out, but she was short of money and ended up owing Gu Qing a meal.

The debt has been outstanding for many years.

The afternoon sun in the southern part of the city in April was already quite scorching.

Xu Wan found a shady spot and replied to the man's message: 【Okay.】
