Ning Qiluo shook her head: "I haven't seen him for several days. When Sister Xie Ya gets busy with my career, she doesn't even recognize her own family."
For example, the schedule is full of announcements.
Another example is fan meet-and-greets.
There are also advertising endorsements being negotiated; advertisers all want to have dinner with her.
I heard that the brand she used to endorse, a silver jewelry brand, has grown bigger and bigger, with several stores now open.
The silver jewelry manager also wanted to see her, and Ning Qiluo had to subtly inquire about what had happened back then, how she had managed to make a fortune with a subsidiary brand.
As the door opened, Jones brought over the sleep-inducing milk and said, "Mr. Jiang came by today."
Ning Qilu reacted as if she had been burned, making a big fuss: "You said Jiang Yingchi came? When did he arrive?"
Jones was amused by her excited reaction.
Ning Qiluo realized she had overreacted and asked with a forced laugh, "Why didn't you tell me he was coming today?"
Jones smiled and said, "Mr. Jiang just arrived. His car was parked outside for more than a minute. I was just about to come up and talk to you, Miss Ning, but Mr. Jiang's car had already driven away."
After hearing this, Ning Qiluo's expression shifted from happiness to disappointment, clearly written all over her face. "Then...did he come with my second brother? Is that why he was in such a hurry to leave..."
"I didn't notice that, but it was indeed Mr. Jiang's car; it was just parked outside for a short while."
After saying that, Jones didn't say anything more.
He took the tray and went out of the room.
Ning Qiluo fell silent.
Did he come to see her because he had something to ask her?
Or... does he have something to say to her?
At this moment, Ning Qiluo's mind was filled with the image of Jiang Yingchi coming and leaving tonight, then repeating itself endlessly.
Adding to her anxiety was the fact that her eyesight was off today, and she mistook every car she saw for his, which brought back that restless feeling in Ning Qiluo's heart.
Take out your phone.
I searched and searched, but couldn't find Jiang Yingchi's WeChat account.
They didn't even have his phone number.
After waking up, I got a new phone and don't know if I had Jiang Yingchi's contact information on my old phone.
She called her second brother to ask for his number, and he gave it to her. Ning Qiluo dialed the number.
Before the call even started, Ning Qiluo hung up again.
Instead, I sent him a message.
Stranger: [Sir, are you lonely and available for flirting?]
The message was sent but disappeared without a trace.
Ning Qiluo waited and waited, but no reply came.
As expected, aloof people are not to be trifled with. If they receive harassing messages like this, they might just block them directly.
So she tried sending another message to see if he had blocked her.
Stranger: [The night is long, sir, is anyone keeping you company?]
She posted it like that on purpose.
The text content was very different from her, so Jiang Yingchi would never have imagined that the person who sent him this message was her.
The good news was that the message was sent successfully and he didn't block her, but the bad news was that he didn't reply, which made Ning Qiluo increasingly anxious.
She mustered her courage and called him. The call went through, and he answered, but Ning Qiluo didn't dare to speak, holding her breath and listening intently to what was happening on his end. There was no response; it was very quiet on his end.
Finally, his cold voice came through the receiver: "What is it?"
Ning Qiluo's eyes lit up: "Do you know who I am?"
"If you don't say anything, I'm hanging up." His voice was as cold as ice shards.
Ning Qiluo didn't know if he recognized her voice, but she could tell that Jiang Yingchi was in a bad mood.
"Um, the reason I called you is because..."
