Chapter 146: He owes her, he owes her for the rest of his life...

Bai Qianqian gently let her thick, long hair fall loose.

Her jet-black hair cascaded down her shoulders.

Dragging the heavy ball retriever, I returned to the sprawling green golf course.

In the distance, the men had already begun a new round of swings.

Gu Jingcheng stood tall and straight in the sunlight.

Bai Qianqian kept her head down and carefully moved across the lawn.

Pick up the scattered golf balls one by one.

Sunlight filtered through her fine, wispy hair, making her appear exceptionally frail.

Chen Yu swung his club, and the golf ball traced an arc across the grass.

It struck Bai Qianqian's fair calf squarely.

The excruciating pain spread, and Bai Qianqian staggered and fell to the ground on the grass.

Chen Yu looked at the white figure and feigned surprise.

"Ouch, you hit someone."

Gu Jingcheng's gaze fell on the huddled figure.

His pupils contracted sharply when he saw the long hair cascading down like a waterfall.

"flourishing?"

Gu Jingcheng threw down the pole, ignoring the surprised looks from the others.

He strode quickly toward the court.

"Miss, are you alright?"

Gu Jingcheng's voice trembled slightly as he tentatively asked the question.

I kept telling myself that Bai Qianqian was dead.

He died long ago...

Bai Qianqian listened to the man's voice she hadn't heard in 10 years.

She lifted her misty eyes.

Their eyes met...

Gu Jingcheng felt as if his heart had been struck by a hammer, a dull ache spreading through him.

"It really is you... How did you get here?"

"Brother Jingcheng, I'm fine."

Gu Jingcheng frowned, his gaze falling on the redness and swelling on her calf.

My heart tightened, and I picked her up horizontally.

"Let's go check out a shady spot first."

Bai Qianqian did not struggle; her long hair fell loose.

It brushed against his arm almost imperceptibly.

The seasoned businessmen around them exchanged knowing glances.

They tacitly found an excuse to disperse.

Soon, only the two of them remained under the large parasol.

"Brother Jingcheng, I'm fine, it doesn't hurt at all,"

Bai Qianqian's voice was gentle, with a hint of fragility.

Gu Jingcheng pressed his finger against the area around the redness and swelling.

Bai Qianqian gasped, her body trembling slightly.

"You still say you're fine?"

"How can it not hurt when the ball hits you?"

"Qianqian, what are you doing here as a caddie? Aren't you already..."

Bai Qianqian's eyes dimmed, and she put on a sad expression.

"Actually, I didn't die during that kidnapping."

"My kidneys were damaged by those guys..."

"But my father thought I was a burden and threw me out, leaving me to fend for myself..."

"Later, a friend took me to the United States."

I'm almost fully recovered now.

I just returned to China a few months ago.

Because they've been out of touch with society for too long

So, I can only be a caddie here..."

Bai Qianqian told a half-truth, secretly observing Gu Jingcheng's expression.

I caught the undisguised guilt on the man's face.

She acted even more aggrieved and miserable.

She did indeed have one of her kidneys failing.

Gu Jingcheng's eyes were filled with deep remorse.

That rainy night, Qianqian, in order to distract the kidnappers,

The figure resolutely ran into the depths of darkness.

He owes her, he'll owe her for the rest of his life...

"Qianqian, I'm sorry..."

"If it weren't for me, you wouldn't be like this... It's all my fault."

Bai Qianqian wore a gentle smile.

The tone was relaxed.

“Brother Jingcheng, there’s nothing to apologize for. I did it all voluntarily.”

Seeing that you're doing well now puts my mind at ease.

The guilt in Gu Jingcheng's eyes deepened.

Looking at her pale, thin face,

Just thinking about her bending over to pick up the ball under the scorching sun...

My heart feels like it's being pricked with needles.

He owes her something, and he has to make it up to her no matter what.

"Qianqian, why don't you come work at my company?"

Being a receptionist is better than standing here in the wind and sun.

Bai Qianqian's eyes lit up.

But her face showed that she was thinking of him.

A little bit of guilt was enough for her to be treated specially by Gu Jingcheng openly and legitimately.

However, this special trait alone is not enough to ruin his relationship with Lin Wei.

She can't rush things.

Bai Qianqian shook her head, her eyes flickering.

"No need, Brother Jingcheng. I heard... you got married."

I'm genuinely happy for you, but when I go to your company...

I'm afraid my sister-in-law will misunderstand... so I won't trouble you.

I cannot affect your family.

"No, Weiwei isn't that kind of person."

Jealousy surged within Bai Qianqian's chest.

Why is Lin Wei described as so perfect and sensible by every man?

In just a moment, Bai Qianqian's expression returned to normal.

Her voice was soft and weak.

"Really, it's not necessary, Brother Jingcheng."

I really enjoy working here, even though it's a bit tiring.

But I can support myself.

"I'm already so content to see you again and know that you're doing well..."

Not far away, a man dressed in black...

Press the shutter button silently.

Collect their intimate moments.

-

When Lin Wei returned to the company, it was already afternoon.

Lin Yanlin sat on the sofa in the general manager's office.

Seeing her sister push the door open and come in,

He went to greet her with a concerned expression.

He held Lin Wei's hand and looked her over.

"Sis, are you alright? Why did you go to the hospital for no reason? What's wrong?"

Lin Wei looked at her younger brother, who rarely showed a serious expression.

A warmth filled my heart, and I managed a relieved smile.

"Okay, okay, I'm fine. Why aren't you in your own department?"

"You came here to slack off?"

Seeing that his sister looked alright, Lin Yanlin breathed a slight sigh of relief.

He pulled out a document with a smug look on his face.

"Mr. Li, the 2 million project has been signed, and the client will be sent to the site in a few days."

Lin Wei's eyes brightened, filled with relief.

"The sales department really hones people; you're becoming more and more mature."

I'm so happy for you, sister.

Lin Yanlin chuckled, his tail almost wagging.

His face instantly turned serious.

"Don't interrupt, what exactly happened at the hospital?"

"Are you really alright?"

Lin Wei hesitated for a moment.

She didn't want her family to know she was pregnant too soon.

To avoid them making a big fuss.

"I'm really fine, it's just that my throat is a little sore."

"It's alright! You scared me. There's never enough work at the company."

Health is the most important thing.

"Sis, look what a big deal I closed today!"

You must bring your brother-in-law home for dinner today.

Mom and Dad haven't seen you in a long time, and they've been talking about you countless times.

Lin Wei smiled indulgently.

"Okay, okay, let's go back together tonight. You go to work first."

Lin Yanlin placed the agreement on Lin Wei's desk.

"Okay, sis, remember to sign it later."

He turned and left.

The sensible child closed the door behind them.

Lin Wei breathed a sigh of relief and sat down in the large office chair.

Call Gu Jingcheng.

The phone rang a few times before being answered.

Gu Jingcheng glanced at Bai Qianqian,

He got up and walked a short distance away to answer the phone.

"Weiwei, what's wrong?"

My younger brother landed a big project, and we're going to celebrate when he gets home tonight.

Come over to my parents' house for dinner tonight.

Gu Jingcheng hesitated for a moment,

I've already made plans with Qianqian for the evening.

Have a proper meal.

"Weiwei, I have a company dinner tonight, how about..."
