Last night at the club, Ji Yuqi knelt for five hours.
I knelt until my knees were red and swollen.
Ji Yuqi knew clearly in his heart that breaking one's promise and going back on one's word were the biggest characteristics of a playboy like Zhao Qi.
He won't let her go easily.
However, she never expected that Zhao Qi wanted to crush her to death.
Not only did they fail to give her the female lead role in "Le Ge Chuan" as agreed, they also issued a ban on her.
Earlier this month, financial news just released the Forbes Capital Wealth List: the Zhao family ranked 19th.
The imperial capital, as the capital of Country Z, is home to many wealthy people.
Being ranked 19th in the imperial capital, the family is already very prominent.
If Zhao Qi really intended to kill her, it would be difficult for Ji Yuqi to make a comeback in the entertainment industry.
The agent saw Ji Yuqi standing in the living room with a pale face and no intention of packing up. The disgust in his eyes became more intense: "What, are you scared now?! Ji Yuqi, when you offend someone, don't you know to open your eyes and carefully check whether that person can afford to offend?! Master Qi said that no agency is allowed to sign you. Ji Yuqi, you are finished. Don't cause trouble for the company anymore. Hurry and pack up and get out."
Ji Yuqi dragged her suitcase and walked around the city of the imperial capital, round and round, and finally stood woodenly on the crowded street. At that moment, she suddenly realized: the imperial capital is a city that can no longer warm her.
She has no home here.
By ten o'clock in the evening, Ji Yuqi still hadn't found a place to go.
She stood blankly in the bustling city with bright neon lights, like a homeless ghost.
When Li Tong called her via video, she was standing at the door of a small hotel, hesitating whether to go in. The cheapest room was not expensive, only 198 yuan.
But she couldn't bear to do it.
198 yuan is Ji Niancheng’s nutrition expenses for three days.
Finally, she went in and sat in the most secluded spot in the lobby.
Before answering the video call, Ji Yuqi took out his towel from the suitcase and wiped the rain off his hair.
"Are you busy?!" The moment the video call was connected, Li Tong's pretty face suddenly jumped onto the phone screen. "You haven't answered the video in so long, I'm about to go check on the ward."
Without waiting for Ji Yuqi to answer, Li Tong had already adjusted the camera and aimed it at the ward window.
There is a ten-hour time difference between Country M and Country Z.
The night in the imperial capital is at its coldest and darkest. The sky over there is not only bright, but also has golden sunlight.
Ji Yuqi saw his long-missed son sitting on a wooden chair by the window, meticulously watering the cactus on the balcony.
However, after not seeing his son for a month, Ji Yuqi's eyes suddenly turned red when he saw his son's increasingly skinny body.
My heart felt like it was being cut by a sharp knife, and the pain was so severe that I felt suffocated.
"Chengcheng, Mom is on the video call, come here quickly." Li Tong shouted.
After hearing this, Ji Niancheng left, threw away the kettle, and ran towards Li Tong.
The attending physician called yesterday and said that Ji Niancheng's condition has not been very good recently.
Shi Nianqing saw clearly that when Ji Niancheng ran over, his steps were unsteady. When he picked up the phone after a few meters, his face became paler and he was panting.
Ji Yuqi felt so heartbroken that he couldn't describe it.
"Mom, Chengcheng misses you so much. Do you miss Chengcheng?"
When he was not sick, Ji Niancheng's face was always pale and his lips were colorless, but he had a pair of eyes like black gemstones, clean, clear and sparkling.
Ji Yuqi forced herself to hold back her tears. She raised her lips and smiled, "Yes, I think about my baby all the time."
Li Tong is a nurse in the hospital. Ji Yuqi is busy with work on weekdays, so Li Tong will go to the ward to take care of Ji Niancheng if she is free.
After Ji Yuqi returned to China, Li Tong would video call him every Wednesday so that they could chat.
After not contacting each other for a week, Ji Niancheng is like a little chatterbox at this moment.
He asked Ji Yuqi how her work was going, whether anyone bullied her, and whether she ate and slept well when he was not around.
Ji Yuqi nodded and patiently replied one by one.
When the call was about to end, Ji Niancheng suddenly called her again: "Mom..."
"What's wrong, baby?!"
"Can cactus really bloom?!"
"Of course."
"When the flowers bloom, will Dad come to pick me up as promised?!"
"……Um."
"Mom, when will my cactus bloom? I've been taking care of it for two years."
"Every cactus has a different flowering period. As long as you take good care of it and behave yourself, sooner or later, it will bloom."
"Okay, Mom, Chengcheng will definitely take good care of the cactus and be a good boy. From this moment on, Chengcheng won't cry even when getting injections or taking medicine."
Li Tong stood by, listening to Ji Niancheng's words, her eyes felt a little uncomfortable. She suppressed the emotions in her heart and urged: "Okay, Chengcheng, Aunt Tongtong is going to work, say goodbye to your mother."
After Li Tong left the ward, Ji Niancheng slid down from the bed and ran to the window with a "dong dong dong" sound.
He leaned on the window frame, staring at the cactus eagerly, and whispered softly: "Cactus, cactus, please bloom soon. Yesterday I heard the uncle in the next ward secretly discussing my condition. He said that my disease is very serious and cannot be cured, and I will die. Cactus, before I die, can you bloom and let my father come back?! I'm afraid that when I'm gone, my mother will cry, and there will be no one around her..."
Li Tong returned to his office and video-called Ji Yuqi again.
When the call was connected, Li Tong could see that Ji Yuqi looked very bad.
