Chapter 53 Don’t Act Pitiful

After Bai Yuqing hung up the phone, he remained silent. Jiang Jinyue also remained silent, accompanying him silently. A minute later, he said calmly, "Ajiu, I want to go see her."

Jiang Jinyue didn't even think twice and immediately said, "I'll accompany you."

"Big star, you need to maintain your mystery and avoid overexposing yourself. Just wait here for me and be my advisor."

As he spoke, Bai Yuqing pressed a few buttons on his phone, and after a while, Jiang Jinyue's phone rang.

Bai Yuqing connected the call for her. "You can listen in the car and get firsthand information."

It takes about 10 minutes to walk from the underground garage to meet Zhou Yuncheng.

During these 10 minutes, Jiang Jinyue, who was usually aloof, kept finding topics to chat with him as if she was wound up.

On the contrary, Bai Yuqing just smiled and agreed with her, saying very little.

He stopped until the mother and child appeared in his sight.

This time, he looked at him seriously and said to Jiang Jinyue on the other end of the phone, "Ajiu, she is much more beautiful than when she was in the mountains. Eleven years have passed, and she has become even younger."

"Um."

In the enclosed space inside the car, Jiang Jinyue could hear her own breathing and the man's breathing.

She heard the wind, she heard the stillness.

I heard Bai Yuqing say, "Hello."

"Mom, this is the brother." A clear and childish voice belonging to a child.

"Hello, Mr. Bai. Thank you for what you did today. The child wanted to take the kitten to school to show it off, but the other kids surrounded it, and the kitten got stressed out, so it ran away."

"When I found out about this, my son told me it was all thanks to your help. So I checked the surveillance footage from that time and found you. I just asked for your name and address. If you find this intrusive, I apologize in advance."

Her tone was gentle and her words were polite, but she was undisguisedly strong and didn't give Bai Yuqing any time to speak.

"If you're free now, I can treat you to dinner. Or, if you need help in the future, you can always call me and I'll do my best to help you."

After Zhou Yuncheng finished speaking, he looked at the young man in front of him. He looked handsome and talented.

Bai Yuqing was also looking at the person in front of him from a close distance.

But the words she said were like jumping notes, with only a woman's pleasant voice and ups and downs of intonation, but no content.

When the woman stopped and waited for his answer, he seemed to wake up from a dream——

She really couldn't recognize herself.

Even though she already knew his name, he was still a stranger to her.

She seemed to have completely forgotten him.

There was no trace of him in her memory anymore.

That painful period of life has been erased from her glamorous life.

This may be a blessing in her unfortunate life.

"Mr. Bai, which method do you want to choose?"

Seeing that the young man in front of him didn't speak, Zhou Yuncheng asked again, raising his voice and emphasizing his words, as if he was treating a distracted subordinate during a meeting.

This time, he still didn't answer, because a sports car roared to a stop in front of them, the window rolled down, and the second daughter of the Jiang family, whom he had met a few times before, sat in the driver's seat, wearing sunglasses, and said to her, "Let's have dinner together, Ms. Zhou."

Zhou Yuncheng looked at her and greeted her first: "Second Miss Jiang, what a coincidence."

"It's not a coincidence, after all, you're talking to my boyfriend." Then she made a "hush" gesture, "But our relationship isn't public yet, so I hope Miss Zhou can keep it a secret for us and find a restaurant with better privacy."

As expected of someone who has seen many ups and downs, Zhou Yuncheng remained extremely calm throughout the entire process, whether it was when he met Jiang Jinyue or heard about their relationship.

There was no sign of surprise or curiosity.

"What do you think, Mr. Bai?" In fact, there is no need to ask this question, because Zhou Yuncheng discovered that since the second lady of the Jiang family appeared, the eyes of the young man in front of him have never left the girl.

So even if Jiang Jinyue didn't say it, she could easily see what the relationship between the two people was.

Sure enough, the boy who had been silent just now smiled, his eyes gentle, "I will follow her arrangements in everything."

Zhou Yuncheng prided herself on her ability to judge people, but at this moment, she suddenly realized that the young man in front of her, although he seemed calm and composed just now, had a good temperament.

But at this moment, he was truly calm and at ease, his whole body relaxed, and a smile appeared in his eyes.

Zhou Yuncheng nodded his chin and said, "Okay, then I'll decide the place."

If Jiang Jinyue were to use one word to describe her during this brief encounter, it would probably be "gentle on the outside, strong on the inside."

She is her sister Dai Shuyue's career competitor, especially since both of them are women, they are often compared.

Her sister's evaluation of her includes but is not limited to: arrogant, cold-blooded, and controlling.

Jiang Haoyue happened to be passing by at the time. Upon hearing this, he looked at Dai Shuyue in surprise and asked, "When did you become so clear about yourself?"

Dai Shuyue was furious and the two started fighting again.

Jiang Jinyue smiled and said nothing, not taking these things to heart.

And from now on, she might have to deal with this woman.

"Then Miss Zhou, we'll leave first. This car can't hold so many people. Sorry, I guess you drove here too?"

"That's natural."

"Qingqing, get in the car." Jiang Jinyue nodded and turned to Bai Yuqing.

Bai Yuqing looked at Zhou Yuncheng and said goodbye politely: "Then I'm going to get in my girlfriend's car. See you at the hotel."

Why did she hear something… boastful in his words?

The same tone as when her son won first prize in an international competition.

…………

Except for that time when he was drunk, Jiu had never called him that before. But because his girlfriend would black out after drinking, he said after getting in the car, "Jiu, you've never called me that before. It's really nice."

Jiang Jinyue looked straight ahead, "Really? But I think I called you that in my dream."

Bai Yuqing's pupils slightly dilated, and then their eyes lit up, a smile spreading in their eyes, "Ah... I had a dream too, Ajiu."

Jiang Jinyue had a bad feeling and looked at the nearest bus stop on the roadside, wanting to drop him off.

"I dreamt you said we did..."

"Wait a minute, don't say anything yet."

"Um?"

Brake and stop precisely.

"Go down and take the bus. If that doesn't work, you can take a taxi. I'll reimburse you." Jiang Jinyue spoke seriously, and it sounded like there was no room for negotiation.

Then, the sound of the car door unlocking was heard.

For Bai Yuqing, this change came suddenly.

I was excited one second, and speechless the next.

He sat there, pursed his lips, reached out to zip up his jacket, covering his chin, which further highlighted his pair of eyes that seemed to be able to speak.

At this moment, there were two words written in his eyes: grievance.

But Jiang Jinyue just took a look and said:

"Stop pretending to be pitiful and get out of the car."
