During the three-day exhibition, Qi Zhibai's fame in the International Painting Association increased slightly.
The painting "Miracle" is perfect in terms of technique, emotion and the story behind it. Even the best painters have to admit the excellence of this work.
Just as people all over the world were shocked by this painting, top collectors from various countries began to set their sights on this work.
Who wouldn't want to own this painting?
Even if it is not for appreciation or showing off, it is just to be able to savor this sad but persistent love when you are alone.
So during this period of time, Qian Shu was so busy that he had no time to relax at all.
"I'm so sorry Mr. Hansam, this painting 'Miracle' is not for sale. We don't plan to sell it. I'm really sorry." His tone was low, for fear of accidentally angering the person on the other end of the phone.
When he first rejected these people, he was very nervous, afraid that he might say something wrong and make them hate him. However, as the number of calls requesting to buy "Miracle" increased, he gradually began to get used to it.
Although he was still worried, he was able to control himself well.
"In fact, if you don't mind, you can take a look at other works by Qi Zhibai, many of which have been praised by his peers."
Before he hung up the phone, he skillfully uttered this useless excuse.
Sometimes he really felt that Qi Zhibai's choice was correct and that the painting should not be sold.
According to the current situation, if we sell it to one person, we will offend other big guys. It is better to insist not to sell it from the beginning.
In this way, although those who cannot buy the painting will be unhappy, at least their competitors cannot buy the painting either, which will not make them too upset.
Before he could finish his thought, his cell phone rang again:
"Hello, I'm the assistant of painter Qi Zhibai. May I ask who you are?" He took a sip of water to moisten his throat, and answered the phone very politely.
"Hello, Assistant Qian. I'm Janet, the executive secretary of the head of the Bryce family in Country F. I'd like to inquire about the sales of the painting "Miracle"."
"Excuse me." Qian Shu took a breath of cold air when he heard the person on the phone introduce himself. Bryce is a family with a long history in Country F. After being passed down from generation to generation, they have great capabilities in economics and politics.
"The painting 'Miracle' is the painting that Mr. Qi Zhibai is most satisfied with. I am not going to sell it. I am very sorry." His heart was pounding as he pretended to be calm while speaking into the phone.
"Mr. Qi, do you have any concerns?" Janet had long known that the painting was not for sale, but she didn't think anyone could refuse the Bryce family's request.
"Don't worry, we will meet Mr. Qi's requirements in terms of money, and in other aspects as well." At this time, her voice was no longer as strict as in the company, but instead had a bit of sweetness, "For example, the change of the chairman of the International Painting Association this time..."
"I'm really sorry." Qian Shu felt his heart bleeding when he refused. Although Qi Zhibai didn't like the messy things in the Painting Association, it would save them a lot of trouble if the chairman of the Painting Association was friendly to them.
"The company has always admired Mr. Qi's family. In the next period of time, the company may cooperate with the Kemble family..."
Qian Shu was deeply moved: "Please wait a moment, I will ask painter Qi Zhibai what he thinks."
After a while, he came back with a frustrated look on his face, picked up his phone and replied in a heavy voice: "I'm really sorry, we still haven't decided to sell this painting."
After hanging up the phone, he closed his eyes tiredly. With such generous conditions, he really didn't expect Qi Zhibai to refuse so straightforwardly.
On the other side, Janet looked at the hung up phone, and the smile on her face disappeared without a trace. She didn't expect that even though she had offered such generous conditions, Qi Zhibai still didn't agree.
She took a deep breath, walked to Chi Han's office, and said nervously: "I'm sorry, Mr. Chi, the conditions I offered still didn't impress Painter Qi Zhibai."
The furnishings in the office are exquisite to the extreme. Everywhere you look, there are antiques and paintings that can be named by professionals. These things are placed here, blending well with the entire office without any abruptness.
Chi Han is the heir of the Bryce family. In Country F, he has another name called Denton Bryce.
His mother is Chinese, and he also has a Chinese name, which is also the name he likes more, Chi Han.
So everyone in the company calls him Mr. Chi.
Generally speaking, the older the family, the more they value bloodline inheritance. They will exclude people of other bloodlines to maintain orthodoxy.
However, even in this situation, Chi Han still became the patriarch of the Bryce family. This road was full of hardships and blood.
Therefore, no one dares to underestimate this person who has fought his way out of a world full of conspiracies and intrigues.
However, the reason why he was able to gain support from many people in the family was not only because of his abilities, but also because of his appearance.
He has golden hair that shines brightly in the sun, and a pair of blue eyes as clear as the sky, both of which are exactly the same as his family's orthodox bloodline.
Chi Han raised his head and glanced at her lightly: "Oh?"
Janet tensed up and repeated the conversation between the two people word for word.
Chi Han raised his eyebrows, put down the pen in his hand, and there was no emotion in his eyes: "You have to know that no matter how much you say, it is not as useful as doing one thing."
"I understand." Being able to work beside him, she immediately understood what he meant, "I'll contact the head of the Kemble family right away."
Hearing her words, Chi Han's face flashed with satisfaction: "Free up my time tomorrow afternoon. I want to have a good chat with Painter Qi Zhibai."
"yes."
After reporting everything, Janet walked out quietly.
Chi Han was the only one left in the huge office. The sunlight shone on his golden hair, making him lose the dignity and indifference he had shown when he spoke just now.
Chi Han is a world-class collector, and all the items that find their way into his collection room are among the world's most precious.
As long as he wanted, nothing could escape his control.
In this world, human hearts are the most difficult to understand, but once you figure out a person's heart, you will feel that this person is full of flaws in front of you.
This was what happened to Qi Zhibai. During the simple one-hour meeting, he was completely defeated, but in the end he decided to sell the painting "Miracle" to Chi Han without any complaints.
That evening, Chi Han turned down a social engagement with another company leader, went to his collection room, and hung up the painting.
As someone who owns some of the most famous paintings in the world, he certainly understands painting.
But this painting made him feel for the first time that his previous descriptions and analyses of paintings were completely useless, because anyone who saw this painting could see clearly what the painter was expressing.
It has no abstract lines, no distorted space, it is just a 'simple' figure painting.
He stared at the expression of the person in the painting, at the sorrow that lingered around her for a long time and refused to dissipate, and at the wings of snow that condensed behind her.
“It’s so beautiful.”
His deep voice echoed in the room, carrying a mysterious admiration.
Originally, he just wanted to buy it out of habit after learning about the sensation caused by the painting, just like any other collectible.
Unexpectedly, it gave him such a surprise.
Along with the painting, there was also a note. After seeing the words written on it, Chi Han's hand holding the paper moved slightly.
He Yan?
Of course he knew this name. When this name still existed in this world, he had always been suppressed by this person's aura.
It’s a pity, who in the world still remembers this name?
Thinking of this, the image of He Yan unconsciously emerged in his mind. He exuded indifference and seemed to care about nothing. That person was even colder than him.
Will He Yan really fall in love with someone?
As if he remembered something, he slightly raised the corners of his lips and revealed an interested smile.
"Janet, consolidate this week's work into five days. I will go to China in five days."
Let him go and meet this angel that belongs to He Yan.
…
The painting "Miracle" brought great shock to the world, but Yun Shuning's life was actually no different from before.
Although the person in the portrait is her, Qi Zhibai painted her in a dreamy way. The person in the painting is her but she is very different from her usual self. In addition, the portrait only shows her profile, so most people cannot recognize that she is the person in the portrait.
Before the work came out, she didn't know that Qi Zhibai wanted to paint her like this. As for the notes on the painting, although she didn't want to admit it, she had to say that as the person involved, she was moved by the explanation.
Even though, everything is fake.
So, these two days, when she checked the messages on her mobile phone, she would occasionally see articles praising her and He Yan's love story.
Especially because the painting "Miracle" is so excellent, when relevant personnel appreciate it, they will definitely consider the model's mood at the time. In short, there are now quite a few short essays on the Internet about her thoughts at the time.
This false love lie that came from her mouth has now become the most beautiful love in the hearts of people all over the world and has been praised by countless people.
Yun Shuning could only be thankful that the other person in this love affair no longer existed, otherwise she might not even have the face to live in this world.
Although so many people know about this relationship, most of them express their opinions online and will not disturb her life.
In addition, during this period of time, she has been trying to reduce the impact of the painting "Miracle" on her, so her life has basically not changed from before.
There were suddenly more people coming to her live broadcast room, and more donations in the name of He Yan were received from all over the world. In the end, everything was moving in a good direction.
During this period, she never mentioned the name He Yan in the live broadcast room. Instead, she practiced calligraphy in the morning and chatted with the audience in the last five minutes. She would open the live broadcast at 10 o'clock in the evening and read some short stories that would be good for sleep.
Just as Yun Shuning was rummaging through the refrigerator, thinking about what to eat for lunch today, the cell phone in the living room suddenly rang.
She looked at the name displayed on the screen, her face gradually becoming expressionless. When the phone was about to ring, she slowly answered the call:
"What's the matter?" Her voice had never been so cold.
"Xiao Ning, isn't it because your uncle misses you?" Sun Guoling smiled flatteringly at the phone, "I've seen a lot of news about you online these past two days."
"Xiao Ning, you should be making a lot of money now, right?"
"But what does this have to do with you?" Yun Shuning's voice was flat, as if he was just stating a question that couldn't be simpler.
"If you have time, come back and your uncle will cook your favorite dishes for you."
"If there's nothing else, I'll hang up." She said that and hung up the phone expressionlessly.
In the original owner's memory, she saw her dark past.
After losing her parents, she was adopted by several relatives in turn. In fact, the kinder people were, the less they wanted to keep her. They were afraid that they could not give her fair love and that their family conditions could not support so many children.
So in the end, after moving to several families, she lived with her uncle.
At that time, she was still very young, only seven or eight years old. She slept in the smallest utility room, did all the housework at home, and even had to use all her free time to help her cousin with his homework.
That kind of life may seem like just a few short sentences, but it lasted throughout her entire childhood.
After she graduated from high school with great difficulty, those two scumbags secretly tore up her admission letter and found her a job in a factory, saying that it would allow her to supplement the family income. They even found a high school classmate who had a crush on her and whose family was relatively wealthy, and wanted to "sell" her to him.
She calmed the classmate down and found an opportunity to run away.
Sun Guoling is so old now. I wonder if she can go to college even without an admission letter as long as the school has data records.
Before leaving, in order to prevent them from bothering her again, she went to the police station and sued them for embezzlement.
Although the money left by the original owner's parents was not too much, it was not a small amount either. At least it was enough to file a case.
Although mediation was still the main approach, she now had bargaining chips in her hand, allowing her to have an undisturbed college life.
They had been living in peace for a long time, but this time Sun Guoling suddenly contacted her, probably because she had become too famous on the Internet recently and he wanted to get something from her.
Unfortunately, he had the wrong idea.
After Yun Shuning hung up the phone, he began to think about how to deal with this matter.
On the other side, Sun Guoling looked at the call that was suddenly hung up and spat viciously: He is indeed an ungrateful person!
"Is it okay for you to call like this?" Qiu Shucai listened to the entire conversation, a trace of fear flashed in her eyes, "Didn't that person say that we can't contact Yun Shuning?"
Speaking of that man, she couldn't help but shudder. He frightened her so much.
"It's been so long, that person must have left long ago, how could he have time to stare at us every day." Hearing her words, Sun Guoling suppressed his fear and pretended to be indifferent, "Besides, I just haven't contacted my niece for a long time, don't I miss her?"
"It can't be that this is not possible."
Just a while ago, a few muscular men who looked like gangsters suddenly came to his house and said that their son owed them seven million yuan because of a loan, and they even produced evidence.
They were well-known local tyrants, and they didn't dare to call the police for fear of being hated by them. The family was so worried that they were about to jump off the building, but suddenly a man came to their house and said he could help them pay off the loan shark.
But there was one request, which was that they could not disturb Yun Shuning for any reason. At that time, they did not have time to think about anything and agreed directly.
Only after they helped Sun Yihan pay back the money did they have the time to investigate Yun Shuning.
She is just an internet celebrity, and I don’t know who favors her.
Sun Guoling is an old-fashioned person and has no good feelings towards the current internet celebrities, so after taking a few quick glances at them, he put these things behind his mind.
Until now, he saw news about Yun Shuning on the Internet again. He looked at a statistic and found that his niece made so much money that he was jealous.
Their lives would definitely be better as long as they had this niece.
That's why today, he ignored that person's warning to them and made the call.
Just as the two were comforting each other, the phone suddenly rang.
The two of them trembled with fear. Qiu Shucai took a deep breath and walked to the phone tremblingly. After seeing the contact displayed on the screen, she breathed a sigh of relief with a smile on her face: "It's Xiaohan."
"This kid hasn't called for more than a week, and now he finally misses home."
No matter what Sun Yihan did, he is still her child. He is her only child and they are counting on him to support them in their old age.
"Xiao Han, why did you think of calling home? Are you short of money?"
"Mom, what did you do?" Sun Yihan's voice sounded extremely terrified. He shouted hoarsely, "The debt collector just called me again!"
He was like a frightened bird, and would be frightened by the slightest movement.
When he couldn't pay back the loan sharks, he was threatened by those strong men, so he was particularly afraid of them.
"What?" When Qiu Shucai heard his words, she opened her eyes wide and looked at Sun Guoling who was standing not far away in horror.
"Just now, the debt collectors suddenly called me and said that the seven million yuan debt has now compounded to ten million yuan, and I have to pay back at least half of it within a week."
Sun Yihan recounted the entire incident in a trembling voice, and finally asked in a tearful voice, "Didn't that person say he had paid it back for me? Why are they looking for me again now?"
"Mom, did you do something to make that man angry?" He spoke incoherently, "Go and apologize, go and beg him, or I'll be dead. I'm your only son."
It was because of that phone call that Qiu Shu realized the reason for all this. Her hands were shaking so much that she could barely hold the phone. "Xiao Han, don't worry. I'll go and beg him right away. I'll never let anything happen to you."
"Go quickly!" Sun Yihan's voice was full of madness, as if the person on the other end of the phone was not his mother, but his enemy.
"What should I do? What should I do?" After hanging up the phone, Qiu Shucai was sweating anxiously, "I'll call that person now."
Sun Guoling's face was filled with uncontrollable panic. He didn't expect that he had just made a tentative call to Yun Shuning, and that person would then give him a warning.
"Hello, is this Mr. Zhao?" The call was quickly connected. Qiu Shucai took a deep breath, calmed her panic, and said respectfully, "We were wrong. Please have mercy on us. We really can't afford to pay back 10 million."
Because the phone was on speakerphone, Sun Guoling could also hear Zhao Lu's answer:
"Mrs. Sun, you've gone too far." The voice on the phone sounded slow and leisurely, without any intention of blaming them. "You just contacted Miss Yun because you missed your niece too much. What's wrong with that?"
He really knows.
After hearing his words, the living room fell into silence. Qiu Shucai could only apologize with tears in her eyes: "We were wrong. I promise that I will never contact Xiao Ning again. No, it's Miss Yun. We will not disturb her at all."
"Please, we really know we are wrong."
"It's not enough for you to feel this way alone. After all, the call today was made by Mr. Sun, wasn't it?" The voice on the phone sounded as if he had special respect for the two of them, but the meaning of his words made them shudder.
"Say something!" Qiu Shucai looked at the person who had been silent since a while ago, and spoke in a crying voice.
Sun Guoling was called back to his senses by her voice, and he hurriedly promised: "Mr. Zhao, don't worry, we will never contact Miss Yun again, even if someone puts a knife to our necks!"
"I was actually willing to believe you two before." Zhao Lu nodded with satisfaction after hearing their promise, "But this time, your actions really hurt me."
"But I'm a good person. Since you've agreed so sincerely, I'll trust you again."
After hearing his reply, both of them had no time to relax before they heard his next words.
"But if you keep taking advantage of my trust, it will make me sad." Zhao Lu looked at the scenery outside the window and said with a smile, "This time, you will need to make up 500,000 yuan."
"If there is a next time, it will be one million, and the next time it will be two million, and four million. This money should make you two know what it means to be cautious in what you say and do."
After hanging up the phone, Qiu Shucai collapsed to the ground. It was just a phone call, why did they have to pay such a heavy price?
"What should we do?" She raised her head and looked at the person standing not far away in panic, "Do we really have to pay this money?"
"What else can I do?" Sun Guoling lit up the cigarette and took a deep puff. He originally wanted to change his phone number to call Yun Shuning, but now, he didn't dare to try it at all. If it was 500,000, he could still afford it if he gritted his teeth. If he was discovered next time, he really couldn't afford one million.
At that time, the only option was to sell the house.
He exhaled the smoke from his mouth, and his figure suddenly looked much older: "Let's get together and make up the money first."
"If not, we can go find Yun Shuning. She is so rich, she will definitely find a way." Qiu Shucai looked distressed. The two of them had worked hard for half their lives to save this money, but because of a phone call, everything was gone.
"What are you fighting for?" Sun Guoling glanced at her viciously. "Do you really think that ungrateful person would give Xiaohan so much money? This is 10 million yuan. How much does she earn herself?"
"Doesn't she have a financial sponsor?" Qiu Shucai thought about the voice of that person just now and suddenly shuddered. Yes, they couldn't go looking for her.
Zhao Lu is the man of the financial sponsor, and if they go there, they will be committing suicide.
On the other side, Zhao Lu reported the call to his superior: "Boss Yu, if nothing unexpected happens, they shouldn't bother Miss Yun again."
"I want to be absolutely sure." Yu Cheng's face was expressionless, and his voice was extremely cold. "I don't want the mistake I made this time to happen again."
"yes."
The sunlight in the office shone on Yu Cheng, but it seemed unable to warm him at all.
Now, there are no scars on his body, and even his three meals a day are stable unlike before. However, he no longer has the recklessness he once had, and is instead surrounded by loneliness and despair.
At this moment, he really looked like her.
It turns out that loving someone really makes you become her.
Secretary Ming knocked on the office door with the documents. Looking at Yu Cheng now, he suddenly wondered whether what he had done was right or not.
…
After receiving the call from Sun Guoling, Yun Shuning prepared all the relevant information about his annexation of the original owner's property.
With her current personality, many things are inconvenient, but if he goes too far, she also has ways to make him get 'rewarded'.
But time passed day by day, and she never received any calls again, as if Sun Guoling contacting her that day was just an accident.
Just when she relaxed a little, another phone call interrupted her peaceful life.
"Hello, is this Miss Yun?" A sweet voice came from the phone. Perhaps because she was a foreigner, her Chinese was a little awkward. "I am Janet, the secretary of Mr. Chi of the Bryce Group. Mr. Chi wants to meet you. Do you have time?"
Bryce Group?
Yun Shuning frowned slightly. She had heard this name before, and it was also because of Lin Wan.
In the book, after Lin Wan broke up with He Chen, the noble person she met when she went abroad was Chi Han from the Bryce Group.
After Chi Han trained her to become a famous fashion designer, he returned her to He Chen like a kind-hearted man.
All in all, he is also a tool used to bring the male and female protagonists together.
But why did he want to see her?
"I'm sorry, I don't have time recently." She refused without any tactfulness, and told the person on the other side very directly that she simply didn't want to see the Mr. Chi she mentioned.
Janet had never been rejected like this before. As Chi Han's secretary, she would smile at everyone who saw her and try to please her, so how could she possibly refuse, especially in such a rude way.
Thinking of Chi Han's instructions, she took a deep breath, her voice still sweet: "Our President Chi is a friend of President He Yan, and wanted to meet you after hearing your story."
"I want to talk to you about Mr. He."
After hearing her words, Yun Shuning's pupils dilated slightly. He Yan's friend?
Didn't He Yan have no friends in the book? Why did Chi Han suddenly appear?
Although she was panicking, she knew that she had to go to this meeting and she couldn't wait to go.
"What time?" She took a deep breath, her voice filled with barely detectable excitement.
"Is two o'clock this afternoon okay?" Janet didn't expect that after she finished what Mr. Chi told her, she would agree so quickly, as if she had no hesitation at all.
After listening to her talk about the time and place, Yun Shuning nodded: "Okay."
After putting down her phone, she calmed herself down and tried not to panic.
No matter how familiar Chi Han is with He Yan, she can't be more familiar with him than He Chen. She has deceived He Chen, so she can definitely deceive Chi Han.
Besides, although the secretary said that the two of them were friends, it was well known that two people who had only had one or two business dealings in the company could also be called friends.
Maybe Chi Han doesn’t know He Yan as well as she does.
Before meeting Chi Han, she searched for some information about him on the Internet and finally came to a conclusion: this person is definitely not a good person.
He might be the most dangerous person she had ever met since she came into this world, so she must not make any mistakes.
From the moment she left the house, she was the real Yun Shuning, the Yun Shuning who was separated from her lover due to an accident.
"Ms. Yun, please come this way." Janet, who was waiting at the door of the restaurant, saw Yun Shuning and greeted her with a smile, and took her to the private room, "Boss Chi is waiting for you inside."
Yun Shuning nodded at her: "Thank you."
After entering the box, she saw a pair of eyes as blue and clear as the sky, but she immediately felt the danger hidden in these eyes.
Exploring, doubting, examining, and pretending to be perfectly gentle and polite.
She must be careful with this person.
However, those were Yun Shuning's thoughts, not what she should be thinking now. So, when she saw him, she just looked at him with some confusion, and said in a calm voice with a hint of hesitation: "Mr. Chi."
No matter from which aspect, Chi Han is a gentleman to the extreme.
He was wearing a silver-grey suit, shirt, vest and jacket, and none of the pieces looked wrinkle-free. Refinement and elegance seemed to be engraved in his bones.
"Miss Yun." He walked forward to help her pull out the seat and handed her the milk that had been heated long ago.
He is caring and attentive, and nothing he does is left unseen.
After Yun Shuning sat down, she saw him sitting down as well, and didn't even bother to greet him: "Mr. Chi, are you friends with He Yan?"
Her voice sounded nervous and expectant, and she looked at him seriously.
"Miss Yun, next time you hear similar news, it's better to distinguish it." Chi Han's Chinese is very good. Just by listening to his voice, anyone would think he is a pure Chinese. "No one knows if someone has bad intentions."
He looked at Yun Shuning, carefully feeling the difference between her and the one in the painting.
Compared with her in the painting, all her emotions are restrained and her facial expression is very calm, but only by careful observation can you see the sadness and loneliness hidden deep in her heart, just like the person in the painting.
This time, Chi Han came just to see what kind of person Yun Shuning was. What kind of person could have such a pure and persistent love, and could show such a look of hope in the midst of sadness.
More importantly, he couldn't imagine what kind of person He Yan would fall in love with.
That's right, before meeting her, he had doubts, because based on his understanding of He Yan, he knew how low the probability was for him to be attracted to a woman, and he knew even more how low the probability of such an unwavering love was.
These two things combined made him even more curious and suspicious.
But after seeing her, the doubts in his heart gradually dissipated, and he continued with a smile: "I have met Mr. He a few times, so I think we can barely be called friends."
He saw that after he said this, the expectation in the other person's eyes dimmed.
"But I know Mr. He quite well." He nodded at her, his voice gentle, "After all, our two companies have cooperated several times."
"Is that so?" Yun Shuning smiled at him, with obvious fatigue in her smile. "In fact, the He Yan in my eyes seems to be very different from the Mr. He in your eyes."
At this point, she slowly blinked her eyes, a hint of confusion emerging in her eyes: "Sometimes, I can't tell which one is the real him."
"But later, I gradually understood." The confusion in her eyes disappeared, leaving behind a hint of intoxicating tenderness, "They are all him, but he is especially precious in my eyes."
She seemed to have no intention of knowing what kind of person He Yan was in the eyes of others, but just stubbornly missed the He Yan in her heart.
"Sorry, I think I said too much." She retracted the emotions in her eyes and turned back into the Yun Shuning who she was when she first entered the door.
"It doesn't matter. I'm actually quite curious about Mr. He as well."
"But if Miss Yun didn't want to know Mr. He's news from me, why did you agree to the appointment?"
"Maybe it's because I want to know what kind of person He Yan's friend is." She looked at him, as if she was looking through him and seeing He Yan at that time. "Or maybe, I just want to thank this person who still remembers him."
"When Miss Yun and Mr. He were together, didn't they leave anything worth remembering?" Chi Han looked at the person who seemed to be about to confess, and mentioned it casually, "I don't think I've ever heard you mention it."
Logically speaking, two people in love would definitely give each other gifts. Even He Yan should be no exception.
Hearing his question, Yun Shuning's long eyelashes trembled slightly, and a hint of fragility flashed in her eyes.
Perhaps others were afraid of making her sad, so no one ever asked her this question.
"Actually, before he disappeared, our relationship was a little... strained." She answered the question irrelevantly and talked about their past in front of other people for the first time.
"A Cinderella who doesn't believe that two people can be together forever, and a prince who likes to keep everything to himself." She looked at him and took a trembling breath. "The last time we met was actually a little unpleasant."
"One day later, that's when he disappeared, but I didn't know."
Because He Yan never had anyone around him and liked to be alone, it was not until two days after he disappeared that his secretary, who was looking for him because of company affairs, discovered that he was missing. It was not certain whether it was a kidnapping or an accident. Once the news of the disappearance of the head of the He family was discovered, it would definitely cause social unrest, so the police concealed the news while investigating.
"The day after we parted ways, I took the initiative to send him messages and call him, but there was no response. A week passed like this, and I thought he was telling me directly that our relationship had come to an end."
Chi Han paused with his hand holding the wine glass, and suddenly understood why Yun Shuning missed that relationship so much and felt so upset.
If the two of them had experienced the ups and downs of society, if Yun Shuning was forced to accept everything around him, if the two of them had not separated at the most nostalgic and regretful time, would she still be able to wait as persistently as she is now?
He couldn't give an answer because she was Yun Shuning.
"Later, I decided to have a clean break with him, so I cleared out everything about him from my world, including the phone he gave me and the gifts we exchanged..."
At this point, Yun Shuning laughed sarcastically, not knowing whether he was laughing at his current self or at his naive self in the past. "At that time, I had not experienced the trials of society and threw away everything. That was all money."
She smiled with red eyes, her voice choked with sobs, drop by drop
