"Ms. Shi, would it be convenient for you to come and pick it up today?"
After staying up all night, she honestly just wanted to go home and catch up on her sleep, not go to the club. Besides, she needed to rush to Tanhua Garden to sign the divorce papers.
He then said, "I have something to do today and it's not convenient for me to come over. Could you please keep it for me for a few days?"
"It's like this, Miss Shi. I'm going back to my hometown this afternoon to prepare for my wedding. I don't know when I'll be back, or maybe... I won't be coming back at all."
"I see..."
After a moment of contemplation, Shi Wan said, "Then please help me hand over the safety amulet to the other staff members of the club. I will pick it up in a few days."
A troubled voice came from the other end: "Miss Shi, I see that this safety amulet of yours is not cheap. If there is any mishap during the handover, I may not be able to afford to compensate for it. Could you please come and pick it up today when you have some free time?"
This safety buckle is something Shi Wan has worn since she was a child.
When they got their marriage certificate, Grandma said that it was given to Shiwan by Grandma Sikong when Shiwan was born.
Not to mention that Shi Wan has worn the peace buckle since she was a child, the two characters "Sikong" are engraved on the peace buckle, so it can be regarded as a token.
Now that they're getting a divorce, Shi Wan should return the peace buckle intact.
The club usually opens at 10:00, but it's only 8:15 now. Even if I go now, I won't be able to get it. "I'll go at 3:00 this afternoon. Thank you so much for telling me."
After hanging up the phone in the evening, Shi Wan rubbed her sore eyes, left the department, and went to Tanhua Garden first.
The house is very quiet and deserted; there's not a trace of human presence.
It seems that Sikong Jingyu hasn't returned here since going back to China.
Sure enough, there was a divorce agreement on the coffee table.
Without the slightest hesitation, Shi Wan went straight to the point and signed her name.
After signing, Shi Wan felt much more relaxed.
It was only then that Shi Wan noticed that the divorce agreement stated that Sikong Jingyu had given her 100 million yuan and several properties, including the Tanhua Garden.
Although Shi Wan is not extremely wealthy, she is perfectly self-sufficient. Moreover, Grandma Sikong has been very generous to her these past few years, so Shi Wan does not need any material compensation.
Without the slightest hesitation, Shi Wan crossed out the compensation given by Sikong Jingyu, put down the divorce agreement, and left without looking back.
Around 2 p.m., a man with an extraordinary demeanor and handsome appearance was sitting in the emergency room.
He exuded an air of nobility, clearly the son of a wealthy family, which attracted frequent glances from Zhang Xiaowan, a young nurse in the outpatient clinic.
Zhang Xiaowan mustered her courage and took the initiative to strike up a conversation: "Sir, are you feeling unwell?"
Sikong Jingyu's gaze swept around the emergency room again, her tone cold and indifferent, "Dr. Nie isn't at work today?"
Dr. Nie?
Zhang Xiaowan paused for a second before saying, "Dr. Nie is on night shift today and won't be here until 5:30."
Sikong Jingyu nodded slightly, stood up, and walked out.
Zhang Xiaowan stared blankly at Sikong Jingyu's tall and slender back, and hurriedly called out to him, "If Dr. Nie isn't here, you can see another doctor. Our doctors are all very professional."
Sikong Jingyu paused, glanced at the nurse, and then walked towards her.
When Zhang Xiaowan saw Sikong Jingyu looking at her, her face flushed slightly.
Sikong Jingyu's voice was indifferent: "Do you have her phone number?"
Sikong Jingyu's gaze seemed to possess a captivating allure. Zhang Xiaowan nodded, her soul seemingly trembling, and replied, "Yes..."
"Give me."
Sikong Jingyu handed the phone over, Zhang Xiaowan took it, typed in Nie Shirong's phone number quickly, and then returned the phone.
"Thanks."
After saying that, Sikong Jingyu turned and left.
As the handsome man left, Zhang Xiaowan snapped out of her daze: "Aren't you going to see the doctor?"
But there was no response.
Zhang Xiaowan stood by the window and watched him get into a sports car and quickly disappear from sight.
Standing by the window, Zhang Xiaowan murmured to herself, "Although I can't recall the brand of that sports car, I know at a glance it's a nice car. Dr. Nie is so plain-looking, when did she manage to hook up with such a high-quality man?"
"How do you know he's good-looking? Just because he's good-looking?" the doctor in the consultation room asked rhetorically.
“Just look at his demeanor and his sports car, and you’ll know he’s no ordinary person. The key point is that he only wants Dr. Nie to treat him. I won’t comment on Dr. Nie for now, but the way he insists on seeing Dr. Nie is quite captivating.”
"I think it's his money that's so alluring," the doctor said, seeing right through him.
Zhang Xiaowan stuck out her tongue: "Oh, having money is also a matter of their ability."
Around 3 p.m., Shi Wan appeared at the entrance of Fengqi Fighting Club on time.
Upon entering, Shi Wan could see Sikong Jingyu standing by the counter from afar.
He stood against the wall with his head slightly lowered, hands in his pockets, his tie a little loose. He looked languid and casual, yet his innate nobility was undeniable, making his presence impossible to ignore.
Beside him was another equally handsome man, whom Shi Wan had also seen before. He was the one who had helped Shi Wan at the Beauty Residence that night, and I think his name was... Fu Siming.
Shi Wan didn't know what kind of luck she had, but for four consecutive days, she kept running into Sikong Jingyu by some strange coincidence.
Perhaps Shi Wan's gaze was too obvious, because Si Kong Jingyu slightly raised his eyes and looked in Shi Wan's direction. Shi Wan hurriedly covered her face with her handbag.
Just then, a crisp cell phone ringtone sounded.
The sound seemed familiar. Sikong Jingyu looked towards the source of the sound and saw a woman in sportswear carrying a light yellow handbag standing not far away.
The handbag obscured her face, revealing only her black head.
Sikong Jingyu looked away and waited for the clerk at the counter to process his membership.
Shi Wan glanced at Sikong Jingyu furtively, and seeing that he was no longer looking at her, she reached into her bag for her phone and answered it quietly.
"Miss Shi, have you arrived yet? I have to catch my flight, or I might miss it if you don't come soon."
Shi Wan looked at the young woman making a phone call at the counter and whispered, "I've arrived."
However, Sikong Jingyu was right in front of the counter, and Shi Wan was afraid of being discovered by him, so she didn't dare to walk over directly.
"Could you please bring the safety amulet to my door?" Shi Wan asked softly.
“Normally that’s fine, but I’m sorry, there’s a gentleman signing up for a membership right now, and I need to show him around. Could you come to the counter and pick it up from me?”
Shi Wan sighed deeply: "...Okay."
Shi Wan resignedly walked over, covering her face with her bag the whole time, praying in her heart that Sikong Jingyu would not recognize her.
Shi Wan stood in front of the counter, using her bag to shield the side of Sikong Jingyu's face that was close to hers, and even spoke in dialect: "I'm here to pick up my peace buckle."
The young woman at the office saw that it was late and didn't press her about why she was behaving so strangely today. Instead, she handed over the safety amulet and said gently with a smile, "Please take a look."
