I loved Feng Jue for 12 years.
To win his favor, I agreed to a hidden marriage, content to be the woman behind him. But to punish me for not divorcing him, he imprisoned me on a secluded isla...
Chapter 100 A Call from a Best Friend
"Even if we talk face to face, it won't change anything. Firstly, he's not interested in your drone project, and secondly, he may not be able to meet your requirements."
Yan Ai knew that he would not give up unless she gave him an answer that he could accept.
"I still say the same thing. I want to talk to him in person." Feng Jue refused to give in.
"My friend is socially anxious and afraid of strangers. If you really want to talk, I can ask his opinion for you."
Yan Ai seemed relieved.
Feng Jue's expression also relaxed a little.
His tone softened a lot, "Okay, thank you."
Yan Ai was stunned.
He actually said thank you to me?
Is it going to rain red?
This man is indeed flexible and adaptable in order to achieve his goals.
She also needs to learn more from him.
There was no conversation along the way until we returned to the Lake Coast community.
Feng Jue drove the car into her parking space. After they got out of the car, Feng Jue wanted to return the car keys to her.
Yan Ai motioned him to throw it over.
“…” Although Feng Jue was speechless, he still did as he was told.
A beautiful parabola, Yan Ai caught it accurately.
After getting the car keys back, Yan Ai turned around and left without saying a single word, not even a goodbye.
"Wait a minute." Feng Jue still stood there and called out to her.
Yan Ai had already walked a few meters away. Hearing this, she stopped, turned around, frowned, and silently asked him what he wanted.
The man didn't say anything, but just made a phone call gesture to her.
The meaning was clear. This was a reminder for her to remove him from the blacklist so that they could contact each other by phone in the future.
Yan Ai did not respond to him immediately, but turned around again and entered the elevator.
She knew the man would not stay here tonight, especially since she had "promised" that she would allow him to try to contact the person he was looking for, so there was no need for him to stay here.
Sure enough, until the elevator door closed, the man showed no intention of following.
After Yan Ai returned home, she took a shower first. She smelled of alcohol, which she didn't like.
After taking a shower, she went to bed, but it was still early and she was not sleepy at all.
Do you want to release him from the blacklist?
Yan Ai held the quilt and thought about it again and again, and finally decided not to let go.
Just as she was thinking about her phone, the phone she placed on the bedside table rang.
Yan Ai got up and went to get her cell phone. When she saw the caller ID clearly, her eyes lit up.
She quickly picked up the phone and asked with a smile, "Hello, Xiaoya, are you coming back soon?"
The person she affectionately called "Xiao Ya" was her good friend Tang Yajun.
They were in the same class in elementary and junior high school, and were separated when they started high school. After graduating from college, they worked and lived in the same city. They were very destined to be together.
Tang Yajun's charming voice, with a natural hook at the end, came immediately, "We really are in sync. Yes, I'll be back on the 16th of this month!"
"The 16th of this month?" Yan Ai's mind was confused for a moment, and then she made up her mind, "Isn't that still 10 days away? That's a long time."
Tang Yajun smiled bitterly and said, "Yeah, these three months on this business trip have been so long. I really miss the delicious food back home. The food abroad is simply inhumane, even dogs wouldn't eat it."
Yan Ai said lovingly, "When you return home, I will cook for you myself and make you something delicious."
"Really?" Tang Yajun immediately became happy again, "Then I want to order some food!"
"No problem!" Yan Ai agreed readily.
After that, the two chatted for about ten minutes before Tang Yajun mentioned Feng Jue. She asked tentatively, "Before I left on my business trip, you told me you wanted to have a child. Did you succeed?"
Tang Yajun is the only friend around her who knows about her secret marriage with Feng Jue.
Yan Ai didn't answer her directly, but just smiled and said, "When you come back, I will tell you slowly."
"Wow, you're still taking your time? Looks like there are details!" Tang Yajun joked meaningfully.
Yan Ai hugged the quilt tightly, her face changing slightly. Fortunately, they were separated by an overseas call, so Tang Yajun couldn't see it.
"But there is a problem now. The day you return home is not a weekend, but I am only free on weekends recently." Yan Ai cleverly changed the subject.
Tang Yajun asked, "Are you going to retreat and write again? I've been so busy lately and haven't been eating well, so I haven't had the time or energy to pay attention to domestic news. By the way, your latest book should be out now, right? How's the response? Are you confident it will surpass your second book?"
The second book Tang Yajun mentioned refers to the one she wrote when she got married at the age of 20. It is also the one Feng Jue invested 1 billion yuan to invest in his childhood sweetheart, "Out of the Blue", and its current sales have exceeded 30 million copies.
