Chapter 27 Chapter 27 Cheng Shuze didn’t come.
International Arrivals Hall, Terminal 3.
Leaning back on the black lounge chair, their eyes were fixed on the endless stream of people. Whether it was the dusty travelers dragging their suitcases off the plane or the airport reception team waiting anxiously with eager eyes, they took them all in.
Jiang Yiyun asked softly, "Isn't he here?"
"No." Tang Ya's face showed an awkward expression. "I arrived an hour early and then came to your studio. He really didn't see Cheng Shuyi, nor did he see his assistant."
The entire arrival hall was so small, and they had looked everywhere inside and out, but they really didn't find a single hair of Cheng Shuze.
"You gave him my letter, didn't you?"
"I gave it to him." Tang Ya raised three fingers solemnly. "Late in the evening, I personally handed it to Cheng Shuze with both hands. I saw him take it in and close the door. I swear."
Jiang Yiyu said "oh" and stopped talking.
Tang Ya leaned over and asked, "What's written in the letter?"
"If you and your partner had a fight and broke up and left for two years, and he seemed to care about you when you left and said he would wait for you to come back, but do you think that by the time you really come back, he will have moved on to someone else?"
"Of course," Tang Ya said without hesitation. "Two years is enough time for several relationships. How can you trust a man? All men are trash."
Jiang Yiyun curled the corners of her mouth: "I think so too."
"So I wrote in that letter, 'After two years, when we've both calmed down, if he still wants to be with me, then we can meet at the airport on my return.'"
Meeting at the airport, throwing away all the quarrels and unpleasantness of the past, she thought she could give him an answer that she was willing to continue walking with him for the rest of her life.
This was her response to the two-year agreement, and it was also the reply she most wanted to give after analyzing and facing her inner self countless times during countless days and nights abroad.
Although Cheng Shuze's attitude in the past really annoyed her, if he calmed down this time and was willing to pick her up at the airport and make his attitude clear, she would take this step.
After booking her return flight in advance, she posted a message on her Moments with the specific date and time of her return, and before turning off her phone on the plane, she sent another message confirming the flight would take off on time.
Many friends came to pick her up at the airport, but she didn't see the person she wanted to see the most.
Cheng Shuze didn't come.
That's right, Master Cheng is the eldest son, so naturally, there are many girls who will come to him with just a wave of his hand. Why should he repeatedly run into obstacles with her? What childhood friendship, two years of marriage, to put it bluntly, in essence, is nothing.
The broken business marriage is of no use. It is better for Cheng Shuze to keep a few mistresses and indulge himself than to be ordered around by her again.
It's normal that he didn't come.
She should have thought of it a long time ago, but the funny thing was that the moment she boarded the plane, her heart was filled with joy at seeing him again, and she never once considered the possibility that he might not come.
Tang Ya swallowed the words that were on the tip of her tongue and said politely, "Actually, even if all men are trash, Mr. Cheng isn't necessarily trash. He's been busy these past two years with all the company stuff. I heard from Yang Han that they haven't seen each other in a while and don't have time. Maybe he has a meeting today and can't leave, so he might come later. You even arrived early today."
"Anyway, they'll be at the hotel setting up the party for a while, so why don't we just sit here for a while? Maybe they'll show up soon."
Tang Ya and Jiang Yiyu sat on the bench closest to the entrance of the arrival hall. If someone they knew came, they would definitely see them at first sight. Tang Ya dragged Jiang Yiyu to talk about the great changes in Linjiang City in the past few years to distract their attention.
"By the way, how's Ling Jingzhi doing? I only saw the message he sent me after I got off the plane. When I contacted him again, he said it was resolved."
"Him." Tang Ya shook her head. "He should be fine these past few months. You don't know that when you first went abroad, the Cheng and Ling families fought fiercely. It was a bloody storm."
Tang Ya teased in a teasing tone: "Beauty is a disaster, huh?"
Jiang Yiyu elbowed her.
Tang Ya grinned: "But it's been much better recently. I heard that Ling Jingzhi is getting engaged to the girl from the Gu family."
"Huh? He's getting engaged? Well, I haven't congratulated him yet."
In the past two years, everyone has become different from before. Some are divorced, some are engaged.
Just as Jiang Yiyu was about to take out her cell phone, Tang Ya stopped her.
"Sister, calm down. If you go to congratulate him, wouldn't that be like stabbing him in the heart? I don't think Ling Jingzhi has forgotten you yet."
"However, you've been doing quite well overseas these past two years, and even won that international award."
"It's just a small award." Jiang Yiyun's interest piqued slightly when she mentioned this. "Do you know what the person presenting the award said to me when I went to receive it?"
"What did you say?"
"He said that even though none of us understood your story, your ability to create visuals was truly amazing, so he decided to give you the Best Visual Effects Award."
Tang Ya burst out laughing.
"I told you to research the plot line. You need to have a plot and visuals. Otherwise, you might as well make a documentary."
Jiang Yiyun was helpless: "I have paid close attention. How could you not understand my story line? The blank space is clearly part of the plot."
"I've already said that no one likes that kind of thing anymore. What's popular now is simplicity and roughness. Let me tell you, next time you should kiss or have a sex scene, don't skip the kissing. It will definitely be more effective."
"Okay, I'll remember that. I'll definitely change it next time I film a drama."
As dusk fell, people came and went in the arrival hall. Flight numbers scrolled across the electronic screen, and the time on the electronic clock slowly moved from 16 to 18.
The sky was dark and gloomy.
Jiang Yiyu hugged her arms, put her toes together, raised them up and lowered them, and her crystal velvet pointed-toe shoes made a dull sound when hitting the ground.
"If I had known earlier, I would have agreed to that handsome boy from Italy." Jiang Yiyu suddenly spoke.
After waiting together at the airport for more than two hours in vain, Tang Ya couldn't say anything to comfort him. She couldn't even find an excuse that maybe she was in a meeting and couldn't make it in time.
If she really cared, she should have sent them a message even if she couldn't make it in time. However, neither Jiang Yiyu's phone nor hers received any message.
Quietly.
"You..." Tang Ya took out a tissue from her bag, "Do you want to cry for a while?"
"Why are you crying? I've thought of this a long time ago." Jiang Yiyun smiled instead, "I just feel a little regretful. Why didn't I agree to that handsome boy back then?"
Jiang Yiyun's mentality is much better now than it was two years ago. Tang Ya took the tissue and said, "How handsome is he? Why haven't you sent me any photos?"
"He's not only tall and handsome, but also well-behaved and obedient. I gritted my teeth and refused him back then, but now I regret it." Jiang Yiyu stood up and said, "Let's go. We still have to party. If we're late, there will be traffic jams on the road."
All kinds of vehicles on the road have lit up their red taillights in the night. As soon as the door of the reception hall opened, the cold wind from Linjiang City, which had cooled down early this year, instantly rushed back.
Jiang Yiyu, who was wearing a halter dress, immediately pulled Tang Ya to stand in front of her to block the wind.
"Why don't you bring a coat? It's already autumn in Linjiang."
"It was over 30 degrees outside when I boarded the plane." Jiang Yiyu retorted confidently, "Besides, it's all for the sake of appearance. And how could I have imagined that I would have nothing to wear after getting off the plane?"
In her mind, since Cheng Shuze came to pick her up at the airport, she naturally had his coat to wear. At worst, she had another coat in her suitcase, so why bother wearing it in advance?
As a result, who would have thought that not only did Cheng Shuze not come, but her suitcase was also taken away, and for a while she really had no clothes to use in an emergency.
"Forget it, forget it. We'll just have to get on the bus back to the city. Let's go."
"Mr. Cheng?" He Yue reminded in a low voice.
Mr. Cheng has been absent-minded the whole afternoon today, with documents piled up on the table, but now it seems that there is no difference from when he brought it in this afternoon.
It was time to get off work, and the lights in the work area gradually dimmed. It was rare that there was less work these days, so he could leave on time. He Yue also came to ask Mr. Cheng whether he planned to go home first or go directly to the dinner party.
Cheng Shuze threw away the same document that he had been holding in his hands for an entire afternoon in a slightly annoyed manner.
This is so rare. Ever since President Cheng took over the company's affairs, he has been calm and composed. It seems that he hasn't seen Mr. Cheng so emotional for a long time.
He Yue looked at his nose and his heart, lowered his head and said nothing.
Cheng Shuze stood up from his seat and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window.
The Cheng Group's headquarters is located in the Central CBD Business Building, enjoying the best location and the best view. Looking down from above, the high-rise buildings surrounding the Central Business Building are all lit up with neon lights, which complement the lights of the busy traffic, creating a brilliant night scene along the river that never gets dark.
At the end of the east lane, heading towards the city center, a convoy of cars heading into the city was moving slowly like sardines in a can.
That road goes directly from the airport to the city center.
Jiang Yiyu is back.
Everything went smoothly, we arrived early, and even landed at the airport before four o'clock. Of course he knew it.
You should be home by now.
Cheng Shuze was lost in thought as he stared at the colorful signs and advertisements rolling on the skyscrapers not far away.
She probably still wouldn't return to Yujiangyuan. Jiang Yiyun hadn't been back since their breakup, not even when she packed her suitcase to go abroad, though most of her things were still there, including all the clothes on the 26th floor. Either she would return to the Jiang family mansion, or she would go to Tang Ya's place.
He should have left with Tang Ya. Cheng Shuze remembered that he saw Tang Ya’s circle of friends in the afternoon. She brought flowers and was obviously excited to pick someone up.
How can I have such a good relationship with Tang Ya...
"Mr. Cheng?" He Yue couldn't help but call out again.
Cheng Shuze retracted his gaze: "Let's go, let's go directly to that bureau."
"Yes, then I'll go downstairs and drive."
It is actually a bit early to go now. In the past, when there were dinner invitations, even if we showed up to give him face, Mr. Cheng would always arrive on time. Even if he was late, no one dared to say anything. After all, it was an honor for Mr. Cheng to be there.
You went so early today.
However, he shouldn't ask about things that he shouldn't ask. He Yue kept in mind his ethics as the chief assistant and left the president's office.
