Luo Ziqi's smile was slightly unnatural, and then she lowered her eyes. "What does that mean? I've been keeping my phone off the whole time."
Seeing this, Su Ziqing sat down next to her and asked, "What are your plans?"
Although they came abroad to relax, the obstruction from the Sheng family, which stood between them, remained unchanged.
We always have to face it.
Su Ziqing was surprised that Sheng Yuanshuo hadn't made any response for several days.
Even if Luo Ziqi's phone was off, she was still with Ziqi, so she could call her... (She had no idea that it was Gong Chengjue who had rejected her.)
Even Gong Chengjue would send flowers over, is Sheng Yuanshuo a pig brain?
She couldn't believe that Sheng Yuanshuo didn't know that Luo Ziqi had been approached by his family...
Luo Ziqi looked at her, "What are your plans?"
"It's not about career plans, but about your plans with Sheng Yuanshuo." Imagination is always beautiful, but reality is often harsh.
Who would have thought that after so many years of dating, just when they were about to tie the knot, the Sheng family, who had remained silent all along, would step in to obstruct them?
Luo Ziqi met her gaze and said, "I don't know." She truly didn't know; if Sheng Yuanshuo wanted to know where she was, he couldn't possibly not know.
But……
Even Gong Chengjue sent flowers to Su Ziqing's hotel abroad, so what was Sheng Yuanshuo thinking with no reaction at all?
The Sheng family must have already put pressure on him, right?
Faced with pressure, she had to choose between love and her important family... She didn't want to think about his decision.
“Yuan Shuo is the heir.” Moreover, his status is different from that of Gong Chengjue.
Sheng Yuanshuo truly grew up being pampered by the Sheng family.
However, this doting affection gave Sheng Yuanshuo the illusion that he could marry any girl he liked, regardless of her status or social standing.
However, a family like the Sheng family meant that his idea was too naive.
"The Sheng family probably can't accept an illegitimate daughter as their daughter-in-law." Otherwise, they wouldn't be intervening now.
When she was being suppressed by Su Enen, the Sheng family was willing to help her with their resources, which was already considered as giving her face.
It's true that Sheng's mother likes her, but it's also true that she thinks she's not suitable for the Sheng family.
"..." Su Ziqing realized she couldn't lie and say that in this day and age, who cares about status.
In fact, she understood.
"So... are you going to break up?" Su Ziqing looked at her friend with heartache.
"Perhaps." Luo Ziqi smiled, but there was a bitter taste in her mouth. "It's no longer up to me to decide."
Thinking that all of this was caused by Su Enen, Su Ziqing felt angry.
But upon closer examination, it all came down to her own actions. If she hadn't been enemies with Su Enen, none of Luo Ziqi's problems would have occurred.
“You’ve been together for so many years…” Su Ziqing felt it would be such a pity if they broke up.
"Let's not talk about this anymore." Luo Ziqi picked up her phone. "Book a flight back to China."
Su Ziqing: "..."
"I'm going to take a bath first, I'm so tired, my legs don't even feel like my own anymore." Luo Ziqi comforted her friend with a smile, then stood up and walked towards the bathroom.
She clearly didn't want anyone to see her sadness, but she pretended that nothing was wrong.
Su Ziqing could only laugh and scold, "You shopaholic, now you know your feet are tired? I felt like my feet were about to break a long time ago."
Luo Ziqi entered the bathroom with a grin.
But as soon as the door closed, both of them stopped smiling, their mood becoming somewhat heavy.
Su Ziqing sent a message to Gong Chengjue, "What's going on with Sheng Yuanshuo? If this continues, Ziqi will really leave him."
Gong Chengjue, who was in a meeting, glanced at the message and frowned slightly. Why did he have to gossip and meddle in other people's business?
“They were about to get married…” Su Ziqing sent a sighing emoji. “If it weren’t for me, Su Enen wouldn’t have exposed Ziqi’s identity.”
"Silly boy, when the Sheng family takes a wife, do you think they wouldn't investigate her identity?" Gong Chengjue quickly typed and sent the message.
"But……"
"It's not because of you, don't overthink it."
Luo Jinhan silently looked away. Boss, this is really bad influence...
However, no one dared to say anything.
Su Ziqing was chatting with Gong Chengjue on WeChat when suddenly someone added her as a friend...
Su Ziqing looked at the one-word nickname on the screen and unconsciously sat up straight.
How did Senior Brother Feng get her WeChat account?
Wait, how come Senior Brother Feng knows how to use WeChat?
Isn't he a very busy person who hates these kinds of online products? He would rather talk on the phone than send a text message, yet he's actually using WeChat. Su Ziqing was shocked.
She doesn't want to accept his friend request. Can she pretend she didn't see it?
But she only thought about it; she wouldn't dare actually refuse.
She silently clicked "accept".
Then, very obediently, she sent him a flattering smiley face first, "Senior Brother Feng~"
"Mmm," the other person replied with a simple "Mmm."
"You're using WeChat?"
There was no reply.
After adding her senior brother Feng, Su Ziqing lost all interest in texting Gong Chengjue. Seeing that senior brother Feng wasn't replying, she put her phone down.
Luo Ziqi came out of the bath wrapped in a towel and saw Su Ziqing staring blankly at the flowers. "What's wrong?"
Su Ziqing shook her head. "It's nothing."
She didn't know how to tell Luo Ziqi about her senior brother Feng's existence. Lu Linghong had only mentioned it because they were from the same country.
However, Senior Brother Feng is not a Chinese citizen.
Besides, didn't Senior Brother Feng say that he wouldn't easily set foot in China...?
Luo Ziqi gave her a deep look. "You're showing it from head to toe. Do you have something to say?"
Just as Su Ziqing was about to say something, the phone rang. It was a call from China, but from an unknown number.
She looked at Luo Ziqi.
Uh oh no, it's probably Sheng Yuanshuo calling. Will Ziqi be upset that she's meddling?
Luo Ziqi was puzzled by her gaze. "Why are you looking at me like that?"
Su Ziqing didn't speak, but answered the phone. Sheng Yuanshuo on the other end of the line introduced himself and then asked Su Ziqing to give the phone to Luo Ziqi.
Su Ziqing handed her phone to Luo Ziqi, "It's Sheng Yuanshuo on the phone."
Luo Ziqi frowned.
"You answer first, I'm going to take a shower." Su Ziqing got up, shoved the phone into Luo Ziqi's hand, and then slipped into the bathroom as if escaping.
"Mmm." Luo Ziqi took the phone and hummed in response.
"I'm going to the airport now." Sheng Yuanshuo was direct and didn't waste any words, since it was hard to explain things clearly over the phone anyway.
Luo Ziqi feigned ignorance, "A business trip?"
"I'm looking for you!" Sheng Yuanshuo said.
"I just booked a flight back to China." Looking for her? It's been days already. No need.
"Ziqi, let's talk."
"Okay, let's talk again when we get back to China." Then Luo Ziqi hung up the phone...
Su Ziqing came out to get a change of clothes. "You guys... are you done chatting?"
"Okay." Luo Ziqi handed her the phone.
The phone rang again at that moment. Seeing the word "detective," Luo Ziqi raised an eyebrow slightly. "Detective?"
