Chapter 1162 Ye Zhi Runs with the Ball
Assistant Chen brought the president's "pacifier" to the company and found that the office door was closed. After asking the secretary, he learned that Sheng Ting had a client.
Assistant Chen took Ye Zhi to the reception room: "Mr. Ye, please wait here for a moment. Mr. Sheng is meeting with a client and will be finished soon."
Assistant Chen took out his phone and handed it to Ye Zhi: "Mr. Ye, please take a look at what you would like to eat for lunch. Please order it in advance and have the hotel deliver it."
Ye Zhi selected a few dishes, including the ones Sheng Ting liked.
Assistant Chen added a few more signature desserts: "I heard from Mr. Sheng that you like desserts. Try the hotel's desserts, they are very famous."
Ye Zhi: "Thank you, Assistant Chen."
"I should be the one thanking you." Assistant Chen's phone rang. "Mr. Ye, I'm sorry! I have to take a call first."
"Assistant Chen, you go ahead and get busy!"
Ye Zhi and others were in the reception room.
The receptionist brought some juice. After drinking it, Ye Zhi wanted to go to the bathroom, so he asked for the exact location and went there.
Ye Zhi came out of the bathroom and suddenly heard a familiar voice.
"Your belly is so big, why don't you stay in Kyoto?"
It was Sheng Ting who was speaking.
Ye Zhi walked forward a few steps uncontrollably and stood behind the tall potted plants. Through the gaps between the branches and leaves, he saw Sheng Ting standing in the corridor, with a young woman standing in front of him.
The woman was wearing a long skirt, with a bulging belly. Her face, which was vaguely visible, gradually became similar to the person in Ye Zhi's memory.
Qin Gaoyue
Sheng Ting’s previous marriage partner.
The last time they met by chance in the hospital, Ye Zhi had seen Qin Gaoyue's appearance and had also seen her many times on TV. He would not make a mistake.
Qin Gaoyue laughed. "Why are you so nervous? I went there to help. Your opponent this time is not easy to deal with. If you want him to give up the bid, I have to show up."
"If something happens to you, I won't be able to explain to Secretary Qin."
Sheng Ting pulled Qin Gaoyue's arm and said, "Go back now and take good care of your baby."
"I know you care about our son, but there's no need to be so exaggerated."
Qin Gaoyue took a step towards Sheng Ting and said in a low voice, "That man didn't know you were the child's godfather. He thought you were his biological father and is now hell-bent on killing you. He had no intention of competing for this project, but now he's gone crazy after hearing about this. He's a lunatic who never considers the consequences of his actions. If I hadn't shown up, you might not have gotten away with it."
Sheng Ting sneered: "Do you think I'm afraid of him?"
Qin Gaoyue: "Normal people should never mess with madmen. No one knows what a madman might do."
Sheng Ting: "It seems like you already have a plan."
Qin Gaoyue sighed heavily. "What can I do? He already knows about my pregnancy, and he suddenly interfered in the bidding process to force me to go to him. My father just took office, and I don't want to cause him trouble at this time."
"Who told you not to marry me?" Qin Gaoyue was quite depressed. "If you had just cooperated a little, I wouldn't have to do this so hard. Now I have to sacrifice a child, and maybe even myself."
Sheng Ting: "I have someone I like, and I will marry him."
"Who do you like? Do I know him?"
Qin Gaoyue, with a gossipy look on her face, grabbed Sheng Ting's clothes and asked, "Tell me quickly! I really want to know who on earth could have bewitched you so much?"
Sheng Ting pushed her hand away: "Be careful of the impact."
Qin Gaoyue rolled his eyes: "You really are a man of integrity."
Sheng Ting: "You should go back."
"It's already noon, and you won't let me stay for lunch."
Qin Gaoyue felt that Sheng Ting was quite heartless: "People like you are really hard to get along with. It's hard to tell what you're thinking from your face. If you want to know what you're thinking, you have to guess. At first, the other person may try to guess, but after a long time, they will get tired and gradually want to give up, and the two of you will drift further and further apart."
Sheng Ting frowned: "You talk a lot today."
"This is all my advice to you. Feelings are actually quite fragile. They can easily disappear completely after years of wear and tear. If you really want him, you must manage this relationship well."
Qin Gaoyue seemed to be thinking of something, a melancholy expression on her face. "I'm not sure if I can come back after going abroad this time. Please pay more attention to my father and comfort him. Don't worry about me."
Sheng Ting: "I know."
"I trust you to do the job!" Qin Gaoyue patted his shoulder and said, "I won't bother you anymore. See you at the airport this afternoon."
Qin Gaoyue touched her belly and said, "When you have a child, would you like to consider getting married?"
Sheng Ting: "Not considering it."
Qin Gaoyue curled her lips and said, "You don't have children yet, so of course I'm not considering it. I'm talking about waiting until you have children..."
"I have children, so I don't consider it."
"..." Qin Gaoyue screamed: "When did you have a child? How come I didn't know about this?"
The elevator door opened and Sheng Ting pushed her in: "No need to see me off."
"You..." Qin Gaoyue shouted before the elevator door closed: "Sheng Ting, please explain clearly. When did you have a child? How come I didn't know about this..."
After the elevator door closed, Qin Gaoyue's voice was completely drowned out.
The elevator door on the other side opened, and Assistant Chen came out carrying a lunch box. When he saw Sheng Ting, he shouted, "Mr. Sheng!"
Sheng Ting stopped and looked back at him.
Assistant Chen stuffed the lunch and pastry boxes into Sheng Ting's hands. "Mr. Sheng, take these."
Sheng Ting frowned: "Is this my job?"
"This is not your job, but Mr. Ye would be very happy if you did it."
Assistant Chen pointed to the reception room and said, "Mr. Ye is waiting for you in the reception room. He is going to have lunch with you and see you off."
Sheng Ting's brows relaxed: "Ye Zhi is here?"
"You asked me to go back and get the documents. I saw that Mr. Ye was bored at home alone, so I brought him to you."
Assistant Chen observed Sheng Ting's expression: "Mr. Sheng, are you happy?"
Sheng Ting glanced at him and said, "You're acting on your own initiative."
There was no hint of complaint, and there was even some happiness in his tone that was hard to conceal.
Assistant Chen knew that his presumptuous decision had touched the president's sweet spot, and he was sure to get the bonus this time.
Sheng Ting picked up the lunch box and said, "Pick a new watch and put it on my account."
"Thank you, Mr. Sheng!"
Assistant Chen held his phone and went to check the watch happily.
Sheng Ting pushed open the door of the reception room and saw Ye Zhi sitting on a chair, staring at the big screen with his head tilted back.
Before leaving, Assistant Chen turned on the screen and played a cartoon that is beneficial to physical and mental health.
Sheng Ting put down the lunch box, and the deliberate noise he made failed to wake up Ye Zhi who was staring at the screen.
Ye Zhi seemed to be immersed in his own world, as if isolated from the outside world.
Sheng Ting reached out and touched Ye Zhi's cheek with his fingers.
The slight movement frightened Ye Zhi, and he suddenly turned around to look at him.
Sheng Ting met his panicked eyes and was about to calm Ye Zhi down, but Ye Zhi suddenly turned his head and avoided his sight.
"Are you scared?"
Sheng Ting's fingers changed direction and landed on Ye Zhi's head.
Ye Zhi shook his head: "No, no!"
His eyelashes drooped, hiding the complex emotions in his eyes.
But his heart was in turmoil, and his soul seemed to be pulled out of his body and thrown in the corridor, forced to watch Sheng Ting and Qin Gaoyue being affectionate.
Qin Gaoyue is pregnant, and the child is Sheng Ting's.
Ye Zhi kept telling himself that this was a misunderstanding. If Sheng Ting had a child, why would he cancel the engagement?
But he heard Qin Gaoyue's words "our son" clearly, which confirmed the child's identity. Even if he was unwilling to accept it, he could not erase the fact.
Ye Zhi concealed it so well that Sheng Ting didn't notice anything unusual about him.
After opening the lunch box, he handed over the cutlery: "Eat first. You have a bad stomach and can't eat cold rice."
Ye Zhi took the cutlery, lowered his head, and ate the dishes Sheng Ting picked for him in a daze.
The food tasted bitter and astringent. Ye Zhi resisted the urge to vomit and reluctantly finished the meal.
Sheng Ting's schedule was very full, and after lunch he didn't have much time to spend with Ye Zhi.
He pulled Ye Zhi in front of him and brushed away the loose hair on Ye Zhi's forehead with his fingers. "I'm going to the airport at one o'clock. I'll be abroad for a few days and will be back for the weekend. If you want any gift, send me a message and I'll bring it back for you."
Ye Zhi nodded and said with his eyes downcast, "Can I go out for a walk while you're away from Kyoto? It's boring to stay at home alone, so I want to take a walk. I'll disguise myself so the paparazzi and the media won't notice."
Sheng Ting touched his belly with his palm: "Your belly is quite big now. It's not convenient for you to drive out alone. I'll arrange for a driver to take you out."
Ye Zhi thought that Sheng Ting had always been strong, and refusing would only make Sheng Ting suspicious.
"Can you let the driver follow me? Can you arrange fewer bodyguards? It's too much of a fuss to have them following me around. I feel uncomfortable."
Without waiting for Sheng Ting to speak, Ye Zhi leaned over and kissed him.
Ye Zhi rarely takes the initiative like this. Sheng Ting was so dazzled by this gentle kiss that he naturally did whatever Ye Zhi said.
Sheng Ting lifted up Ye Zhi's face and asked, "You're only willing to take the initiative when I ask for your help?"
In order to achieve his goal, Ye Zhi could only coax him.
She took the initiative to hook her arms around Sheng Ting's neck and offered her lips to him.
Sheng Ting carried Ye Zhi to the table and kissed him stickyly for a long time. If Assistant Chen hadn't knocked on the door, Sheng Ting didn't want to end the kiss.
Ye Zhi sent Sheng Ting downstairs.
Sheng Ting asked the driver to take Ye Zhi home. Before leaving, he stroked Ye Zhi's hair and told him, "Be good and stay home until I come back."
Ye Zhi hummed, without looking into Sheng Ting's eyes.
Sheng Ting got in the car and left.
Ye Zhi stood there until the black car completely disappeared from his sight before getting in.
Ye Zhi was sent back to the villa. After entering the bedroom, he took out his mobile phone and checked the account balance.
The money in the bank card can last for a long time, and should be enough for going abroad and having children.
Ye Zhi took out his passport and ID card and stuffed them into his coat pocket. He sent a message to Sheng Ting. After confirming that Sheng Ting had boarded the plane, Ye Zhi put on his coat and left the villa.
There was a driver in the villa. When he learned that Ye Zhi was going out, he had no doubts and drove to wait at the door.
There were two bodyguards accompanying him this time.
The black car drove out of the villa. Ye Zhi silently looked at the scenery receding outside the window. He never wanted to come back here again.
Ye Zhi went to the club he used to go to often, and his bodyguards and driver were waiting outside the door.
But after two minutes, Ye Zhi still hadn't come out.
The bodyguard was afraid of something happening so he entered the club to search, but he turned the club upside down and still couldn't find Ye Zhi.
As soon as Sheng Ting's plane landed, he received the news that Ye Zhi had escaped.
