He took out his cell phone and dialed a number.
"Fifth brother." Luo Bei was very noisy. They must be having a great time outside. He walked out of the box while answering the phone. Soon, the noise became much quieter. "Is there something wrong?"
"Help me find someone to check if there is a little girl named Yimi, about four or five years old, living in Building 8, Floor 12 of Yunting Community. Check carefully and don't let anyone notice."
Luo Bei was very curious when he heard this. "Fifth brother, what's wrong with you? Why are you so inexplicably interested in a four or five-year-old child?"
"Just check it out, and we'll talk about it after you get the results."
"Okay." Luo Bei nodded, "I'll find out for you tomorrow. By the way, I heard that you and Miss Mo are going to get married. Have you decided on the date?"
When talking about marriage, Tang Yi looked out the window with a heavy gaze and said calmly, "It's not decided yet."
"Fifth brother, there is something I have wanted to tell you for a long time, but... I don't know if I should tell you."
"explain."
Luo Bei hesitated for a while, and Tang Yi was about to lose his patience before he heard him say, "Shao Cheng and I met your fiancée last time."
"so what?"
"She was with Tang Song that day. They must have been arguing. I looked at them and it seemed... their relationship was quite unusual. Fifth brother, I'm not trying to sow discord between you two, I think this matter..."
"Okay, I know what's going on." Tang Yi interrupted Luo Bei and said, "Just tell me about this. I don't want anyone else to know."
"certainly."
"Check the kid's matter and help me with the snacks."
Tang Yi gave a warning and hung up the phone. He only pondered the matter between Mo Liangyan and Tang Song for a moment and called Mo Liangyan.
"Come to my company tomorrow and let's talk."
Mo Liangyan didn't ask any more questions and agreed.
After hanging up the phone, Tang Yi lay on the recliner in front of the French window, looking at the night lights flickering outside the window. In his mind, there was the scene of Zhao Chuning asking him whether he loved her six years ago, and then there was the scene of her asking him whether he was in love with her. Every frame was so clear in his mind, even the scene six years ago, he remembered it very clearly. His expression was broken and sad. It was as if he had used up all his courage to find an answer that he knew would make her despair.
The images of time and space interweaving kept tugging at his nerves, making him even more upset.
And there is the child named Mimi.
Why did he feel that she looked familiar? Where had he seen her before
Tang Yi thought about it carefully, but he still couldn't figure it out. However, there was an idea that kept taking root in his mind.
———
The next day.
Zhao Chuning took a taxi to work. When he arrived, it was the morning rush hour, and many colleagues were crowded on the first floor.
Zhao Chuning was also waiting for the elevator at the elevator entrance. At this moment, everyone looked back and saw the person coming. Everyone greeted him respectfully: "Mr. Tang, good morning."
She turned around subconsciously when she heard the voice, and saw Tang Yi in a black shirt and black windbreaker. Facing the greetings from everyone, he nodded slightly as a response. He looked around at everyone, and when his eyes fell on Zhao Chuning, Zhao Chuning hurriedly greeted him like everyone else, "Mr. Tang."
The voice was cold and the attitude was businesslike. It was as if the relationship between them was really just that of a superior and a leader, nothing more.
Tang Yi's face turned cold. This time, not only did he not give any response, he didn't even look at her.
On the side, everyone looked at each other gossipingly. Wasn't it said that the former secretary of the president had an unusual relationship with the president? But now it seemed that the two of them had nothing in common. Could it be that they were doing this for show
Everyone was extremely curious, but with the two parties standing right in front of them, no one dared to say a word. They just looked here and there with a pair of gossipy eyes.
Zhao Chuning could feel that she was being scrutinized. She just straightened her back and stared at the jumping numbers, as if she hadn't noticed anything. Tang Yi stepped into the special elevator on the other side, his stern face hidden behind the elevator door.
——
A little after eleven.
When Tang Yi came out of the meeting room, Chen Li had already stepped forward.
"Mr. Tang, Miss Mo is here."
"Have her come to my office."
"OK."
Tang Yi pushed the door open and sat lazily on the sofa, casually glancing at the stock analysis data jumping on the screen in front of him. The door of the office was pushed open and Mo Liangyan walked in from outside.
"Busy?"
"Not busy." Tang Yi retracted his gaze, adjusted his sitting position, and gestured to the sofa opposite him, "Sit down."
Mo Liangyan sat down as she was told. Tang Yi looked at her and asked directly, "The elders are already arranging our marriage. What do you think?"
Chen Li brought in coffee, and Mo Liangyan said "thank you". She took a sip, looked at Tang Yi, and then said as if by accident: "Why are you suddenly concerned about our marriage?"
"This is between you and me. What's so surprising about me?"
Mo Liangyan smiled, "From what I know about you, marriage is just like a game to you, it's not worth your concern. As for my thoughts, it should be even less worth your bother to understand. You specially called me here today just to ask me what I think, which makes me feel..."
When Mo Liangyan said this, her inquiring eyes could not help but wander around Tang Yi twice, "Tang Yi, you are not... because you fell in love with someone and suddenly don't want to marry me, right?"
When Mo Liangyan said this, a figure popped up in Tang Yi's mind unconsciously. But then, his face turned cold and he glanced at Mo Liangyan.
That look made Mo Liangyan tactfully stop trying to probe into his inner thoughts.
"I called you here just to find out what you and Lao Liu are thinking." Tang Yi stood up, walked to the bar, and ground coffee beans for himself. His movements were graceful and skillful.
Mo Liangyan was a little surprised to hear his words. She thought no one knew that she liked Tang Song.
"I don't like competing with my brothers for women. If Lao Liu likes you, I'm willing to help him." Tang Yi spoke in a flat tone, as if she was not his fiancée.
Mo Liangyan looked gloomy. When she mentioned that man, she looked out the window, a little lonely. After a long while, she said, "I won't marry him. You are brothers. You know him better than I do. He is even better than you. Of course..."
At this point, she paused for a moment, retracted her gaze, and shrugged casually, "He won't marry me either."
