Qi Tan: "Leave as soon as you can. Qi Yan has already let it slip that Zhou Mo is his senior sister. I guess Han Chen and Han Chi will know about us one after another. If you don't leave now, you won't be able to leave when Han Chi comes. Also, you shouldn't have come, and you shouldn't have risked coming to the commendation venue just to see me. If Zhou Mo saw us, it would be strong evidence to uncover what happened between us."
Yan Yi felt his back tighten.
That day, she learned that Qi Tan was commended and wanted to come to the venue, but couldn't find the place, so she sent a message to Qi Yan.
Qi Yan came out of the venue to look for her, and then called Qi Tan.
Qi Tan was afraid that she would be seen by acquaintances outside the venue, so he took Qi Yan and her to the office.
The three of them chatted for a while, and then he was called away from the venue and asked to speak.
When Qi Tan left, she also asked Qi Yan to call a taxi for her and take her to the hotel.
She did as Qi Tan instructed.
She asked Qi Yan to send him to the door and got into the taxi that Qi Yan called for her.
But after walking a few steps, she saw Qi Yan going back, so she asked the driver to drive back.
She struck back.
If for no other reason than to witness with her own eyes the most glorious side of the man she loves on stage.
It is a feeling of satisfaction that comes from fulfilling a long-cherished wish before death.
She knew Zhou Mo was there, Qi Yan and Qi Tan had told her.
But even so, she wanted to take a look.
She deliberately hid herself among the reporters and was not greedy. She really just glanced at him and left in a hurry.
For some reason, her eyes were wet when she left.
She was crying so hard that she couldn't catch her breath as she ran out of the building.
All this beauty seems to have nothing to do with her.
She watched him grow stronger and stronger and fight for a place in the imperial capital, and she also watched him flee to Dongjiang in defeat like a drowned rat.
Now, he stood up again, still as dazzling as ever.
He has a promising future.
She was devastated.
"I'll leave in three days." Yan Yi said.
"Let's leave tomorrow." Qi Tan said, "Don't underestimate Han Chi's speed. If you don't leave early, it will be difficult for you to even leave Dongjiang."
"Then I'll leave tomorrow," Yan Yi? always listened to Qi Tan's opinions.
Because she knew he always had the best for her.
"There's something I want to ask you." Qi Tan said.
"Well, you ask."
“Aren’t you afraid… that I was with you just to deal with Han Chi?”
"Don't be afraid. I have my own sense of whether you are sincere to me. Besides... I wish you could deal with Han Chi, and it would be best if you could pull him away from me."
"So what now? Aren't you afraid that I'll take advantage of you?"
"Don't be afraid," Yan Yi said, "I've already planned to leave. I know that Han Chi will find out about my frequent visits to you sooner or later. If he can't find me, I'm afraid you'll be in trouble... So... if he really makes trouble for you, then you can disclose our past. You should have evidence of our relationship, enough to prove that you're telling the truth. He probably doesn't want to see his fiancée's scandal, and you and him have no other interests entangled, so he has no reason to fight to the death with you."
Qi Tan stared at the person in front of him.
She changed from the nervous and emotional look when she came to become much calmer and more rational.
She has grown up over the years.
"I've been around for so many years, but haven't made any name for myself. In the end, I still need you to protect me," Qi Tan said self-deprecatingly.
"I do it willingly."
We are destined to be unable to love as we please in this life, so it is better to meet someone you like and love them wholeheartedly, at least without any regrets.
***
After meeting Qi Tan, even if I am reluctant to leave, there is a time to say goodbye.
Qi Yan walked her downstairs and all the way to the gate of the community.
This time, Qi Yan was still considerate enough to call a taxi for her.
While waiting for the bus, Qi Yan suddenly said: "Sister Yi..."
"Hmm?" Yan Yi asked.
"Actually... I've always wanted to call you 'sister-in-law'."
Yan Yi was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "There will be someone more suitable for you to call 'sister-in-law' in the future."
After the car arrived, Yan Yi waved to Qi Yan.
The two said goodbye and left.
On the way back, a cold wind blew and Qi Yan couldn't help but wrap his coat tightly.
When he looked up by chance, he saw that the light was on in the window of the house where Zhou Mo used to live in the building opposite his house.
There was a girl lying on the window, talking on the phone.
Looks very young.
But it’s definitely not Zhou Mo.
Qi Yan was still thinking that the house that Zhou Mo had rented before seemed to have been rented out.
However, he didn't know that at this moment, Shen Pan, who was leaning against the window and looking down, was talking on the phone with Zhou Mo.
"You're right. Your junior student went downstairs with a woman. She had long hair and was very elegant." Chen Pan asked, "Who was that girl? Your junior student's girlfriend?"
"No," Zhou Mo was at a loss for words. "Did you let Lu Zhishu go?"
"Yeah, I guess he's caught up now."
"Okay, then I'll let Han Chen contact Lu Zhishu."
"What about me? Am I being treated as a tool by you?"
"This is an urgent matter," Zhou Mo said, "let's stop joking."
"Okay, okay, since you're so anxious, I won't waste your time. Go ahead and get busy."
"Yeah, bye."
After hanging up the phone, Zhou Mo looked at Han Chen with a worried look on his face.
In just a few days, everything changed.
Qi Tan was dismissed from his post. Han Chen originally wanted to have Qi Tan sent to the police station for investigation to find out how he harmed Zhou Mo. However, he was afraid that Qi Tan would give up and expose his affair with Yan Yi, which would make things difficult for Han Chi, so he did not do so.
But just being dismissed from office was enough for Qi Tan to bear.
