Even if it was a thousand times, even if it was just a vague silhouette, she could still recognize that it was Li Lingyang.
A hint of deep pain flashed across his eyes as he looked at the figure. Soon, Ning Yichu forced himself to forget about the matter and pretended to be indifferent!
She clenched her palms and pulled the curtains in the living room!
When the three babies came out of the bath, wearing white fluffy pajamas, and ran into the room to beg her to tell them a bedtime story, the sky gradually became gloomy.
There was a loud bang! Ningning and Doudou, who were concentrating on listening to Ning Yichu reading a bedtime fairy tale, were startled!
The two babies hugged Ning Yichu tightly, and Chen Bao also took on the responsibility of an older brother, holding the little hand of his sister beside him.
"Mommy! Is it going to rain heavily?!"
Ningning hid under the quilt and asked Ning Yichu.
Doudou next to him clung to Ning Yichu tightly, his little body curled up in the quilt, leaving only a pair of beautiful and lovely big eyes exposed, blinking.
As soon as he finished speaking, there was another loud bang and lightning flashed outside the window!
"It's going to rain heavily..." Ning Yichu felt bad when he thought of Li Lingyang downstairs.
She stood up, walked to the window, reached out to feel the direction of the storm, the wind was very strong, it would definitely be a violent storm tonight!
But when she was about to close the window and draw the curtains, she saw that Li Lingyang's car had not left...
Li Lingyang is still downstairs...
She closed her eyes and wanted to harden her heart and ignore it, but after drawing the curtains and coaxing the three babies to sleep, Ning Yichu turned off the lights, but still quietly walked to the curtains in the living room.
The night was as dark as ink. After the lightning and thunder, heavy rain suddenly came. The storm was fierce. The raindrops hit the balcony, and the sound seemed to hit her heart.
Li Lingyang still insisted on standing next to the street light downstairs, his body straight, his eyes fixed on this side.
Ning Yichu's heart trembled.
Even though she knew that the heavy rain obstructed her vision, she still felt that Li Lingyang saw her.
In the dark night, the lights in the living room were not on, and Ning Yichu's heart was pounding.
Finally, she couldn't bear it any longer and sent a text message to Li Lingyang:
[Don't wait! Go back!]
A phone call came directly from the other side!
Ning Yichu didn't want to answer the call. After she rejected it, a text message immediately came in on her phone.
【Come downstairs, let’s talk.】
Ning Yichu's fingers moved slightly, and he still typed the last line, "You go back."
After sending the message, she turned off her phone.
She sat next to the French window, leaning against the curtains, peeking at the people standing downstairs from the end of the curtains...
The next morning.
Ning Yichu didn't know when she fell asleep leaning against the glass. She subconsciously looked downstairs, but did not see Li Lingyang, and the car was gone.
Maybe he went back a long time ago last night... It was raining so heavily.
Ning Yichu couldn't describe the feeling lingering in her heart. She calmed herself down, made herself a cup of coffee, and dispelled the fatigue of last night.
When he turned on his phone, the text message Li Lingyang sent last night was still the same repetitive words. Apart from that, there was no other message.
She lowered her eyelashes, put down her phone, and went to wake up her three babies.
…
The police have not yet released the final results of their investigation into Gu Sinan, but Ning Yichu police said that some discrepancies were found in the evidence later, but most of them were consistent with the results of the police's initial investigation and evidence collection.
"Chu Chu, it's time to go in." At the entrance of the venue, Ning Chiming looked at her and stretched out his arm naturally.
Ning Yichu turned off the news on his phone. Most of the news were about Gu Sinan and the kidnapping case, or the situation where the Gu Group was being suppressed by the Li family.
After all, it is difficult to help someone when he is in trouble, but it is easy to kick someone when he is down.
She took Ning Chiming's arm and attended today's charity auction dinner together.
The Ning family needs to show up, and there is no doubt that it is the best choice for them to appear together.
However, the image of Li Lingyang standing downstairs that night flashed through his mind unconsciously.
She hardened her heart that day and delayed seeing him. She also didn't pay attention to how long Li Lingyang had been gone. From that day on, they hadn't sent any messages to each other.
She heard from others that Li Lingyang seemed to have returned to his old ways recently, devoting himself entirely to his work. Under his leadership, Li Group not only did not suffer losses from the Dongshan project, but it became even more prosperous.
Just as he was thinking, Ning Yichu raised his eyes inadvertently and suddenly heard some commotion behind him.
Then someone in the crowd shouted, "Look, it's President Li here..."
When Ning Yichu turned around, he saw Li Lingyang, who was surrounded by celebrities, walking in amidst the crowd, with some media following behind him. He stood out like a crane among chickens, extremely eye-catching.
only……
Compared to before, he was surrounded by an extremely cold aura that made people shudder.
Inadvertently, their eyes met, and the moment Li Lingyang's cold eyes touched hers, a flash of emotion flashed across his face.
Ning Yichu took a deep breath, took Ning Chiming's arm and walked to the other side, to their seats.
This charity dinner invited many celebrities from the business and political circles. As long as they were relatively influential, they would have a separate round table with napkins and name tags of the invitees on it.
Ning Yichu controlled his expression and tried his best to look as indifferent as usual.
"Boss Li."
Special Assistant Xu on the other side also saw Ning Yichu.
He couldn't help but think of how Li Lingyang got caught in the rain a few days ago and fell seriously ill. He didn't even have time to finish his IV drip, but he forced himself back to the company from the hospital and then worked like crazy.
All of this... is of course related to Miss Ning...
The moment she appeared, he could clearly feel that Li Lingyang's aura became heavier and colder.
"Mr. Li, please take a seat first." Special Assistant Xu was worried about his health.
Li Lingyang withdrew his cold gaze from Ning Yichu.
He walked with his long legs and a very cold aura, striding towards the round table that had been arranged long ago.
Ning Yichu saw him coming towards him out of the corner of his eye.
Her expression remained unchanged. Ning Chiming, who was standing beside her, was talking to her. "Are there any items in the collection at tonight's dinner auction that you like? If so, and they're within your budget, you can take a look."
Ning Chiming had specifically asked her to come to this dinner because he was afraid that she was still depressed about the kidnapping case.
"Thank you, cousin. I'll take another look." She spoke softly. A very faint yet familiar scent of cold pine passed through the air. Li Lingyang sat down at the round table outside the aisle beside her.
The palm of his hand trembled, and the side closest to him seemed to be burning like fire.
The distance between them was just a small aisle wide enough for one person.
"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen!"
On the stage, the glamorous host, wearing a bright smile and an evening gown, spoke intelligently, "Tonight is our charity night. Thank you all for taking the time out of your busy schedules to attend! Without further ado, let's take a look at today's first auction item!"
