At the beginning, Xi Luo said that if she escaped, she would definitely go to find the old man and Ji Zhinan.
But since they parted, Xi Luo seemed to have disappeared from this world, and there has been no trace of him since then.
"When Miss Luo sent Nannan and me away, she told me not to trust anyone and never to hand Nannan over to anyone else. She told me to hide in a remote town where no one would notice and wait until the storm had died down before coming out again."
The old man seriously recalled what Xi Luo had told him back then: "Although I don't understand the open and secret struggles of the wealthy, I have been with you and Miss Luo and can be considered a man who has experienced many ups and downs. I don't know if I'm overthinking it, but I always feel that someone is still chasing Miss Luo, so Miss Luo has been running away, and finally entrusted Nan Nan to me and asked me to take Nan Nan away first."
“…”
Li Yuan remained silent and listened quietly until he heard the old man's last sentence, his eyes flashed.
Another force is chasing Xiao Luo...
"What is the black card Xiao Luo is talking about?" Li Yuan asked.
From Uncle Ji's retelling, Xiao Luo once mentioned "black card" and also said something like "If I touch the black card, those people will come to find me soon."
"It's the card that Miss Luo gave me along with the jade pendant." Old Master Ji said, "I've already given it to Nan Nan."
Because it was left to Ji Zhinan by Xi Luo, the old man chose a day to give it to her after Ji Zhinan came of age.
"I brought the things." Gu Yibei, who was sitting next to Ji Zhinan, spoke.
He turned his head to look at Baichuan, who immediately nodded and placed a medium-sized wooden box on the coffee table.
Charleson immediately stepped forward and opened the lid of the wooden box, inside which were the things the old man had given to Ji Zhinan: a jade pendant and a card.
Li Yuan picked up the jade pendant and rubbed it carefully in his palm.
His eyes sank slightly as he stared at the jade pendant in his hand, carefully stroking every pattern on it with his fingertips.
Although he had seen this jade pendant on Gu Yibei's mobile phone, now that he actually held it in his hand, all the little details of twenty years ago came flooding back into his mind.
[You are the unexpected heartbeat, the surprise I long to miss.]
【If I don’t meet you, my life would be meaningless. 】
Under the sycamore tree, Li Yuan handed the jade pendant to Xi Luo personally.
[This is my promise to you. Xiaoluo, I want to give you a home.]
Young Xi Luo held the jade pendant and stared at it for a long time. Then she looked up, carefully examined the young man in front of her, and spoke.
[Brother Yuan, you're not some ordinary young master from the capital...right?]
At that time, the young Li Yuan just smiled gently and reached out to hold her in his arms.
[Yes, I still have many secrets. When you become my wife, I will tell you all my secrets.]
【……】
…
Thinking of the scene from that year, Li Yuan's eyes dimmed a little. He held the jade pendant tightly in his hand, and his eyes fell on the black card lying in the box.
"I've checked this card." Gu Yibei said, "It's an unlimited black card."
Unlimited Black Card...
With just four words, Li Yuan understood everything.
Unlimited Black Cards are not advertised and do not accept applications. They are a symbol of status, chosen from the highest-end Platinum Card holders. Without the right, you absolutely cannot have this card.
Precisely because the card is so hard to come by, customer identity information is kept strictly confidential. Even Gu Yibei still can't find out who the owner of this black card is.
