Jingyu picked up the phone and it was Qi Jinnian on the other end.
"Fish, have you arrived yet? Are you not lost?"
"No, I've already gone upstairs." Jing Yu said with a smile on her lips. She put her phone aside, turned on the hands-free function, and used her free hands to unwrap the bouquet of roses.
The fragrance was so pleasant that Jingyu felt more relaxed.
"What are you doing?" Qi Jinnian asked when he heard the rustling sound.
"Flower arrangements. I put fresh roses in them."
Qi Jinnian let out an exaggerated "ouch", "Who sent you the roses that made you so thoughtful? Let me guess."
"Guess." Jing Yu let her make a fuss.
"Liang Shengyi?" Qi Jinnian thought for a moment, "He's the only one who's so positive."
"No." He did send flowers, but she placed the flowers he sent in her office in the hospital.
Qi Jinnian said, "Yu'er, could it be... him?"
Jingyu took the scissors and trimmed the branches. Silence meant agreement. Qi Jinnian looked as if he had suddenly realized something. "I was wondering! How come you suddenly feel so good after just a short while? Yu'er, are you two reconciled again?"
Jingyu was actually also confused about Jinnian's question.
Make peace
They only said the end, but did not say starting over.
But feelings don't need ceremony. But if she really starts over with him, how should she face her father
Jing Yu felt melancholy.
——
It was just as he said.
For a long time, Yu Zeyao never showed up again. He also didn't call her, not even once.
The roses in the vase have withered.
Sometimes, Jing Yu would always be in a trance, feeling as if his appearance on the night of his birthday was just an illusion.
Jing Chaochen is gradually getting better and will be able to be discharged from the hospital soon.
Their broken home is slowly healing, and now Jingrong is the only one left alone.
This day.
She had just come out of the ward when a figure hurriedly ran towards her. She looked closely and was stunned for a moment, "Jinnian, why is it you?"
"Yu'er, that..." She ran out of breath, panting.
"Take a breath before you talk." Jing Yu poured a glass of water from the water dispenser and handed it to her, and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Guess who I just saw!" Qi Jinnian took a sip of water and continued, "My boyfriend and I were shopping outside and saw Jing Rong!"
Jing Yu was stunned.
"Impossible. Jing Rong is abroad now."
"I'm not lying to you! It's really him!" Qi Jinnian said, "He was sitting in a wheelchair. I called him from behind, and he clearly heard me, but he pretended not to hear me and asked someone to push him into the car and left quickly."
"You said... he's in a wheelchair?!" Jing Yu couldn't believe it. "No, that's impossible! I've seen Jing Rong's film, and his leg was indeed injured, but not that serious. Why would he have to sit in a wheelchair?"
"Yu'er, believe me! That's definitely him! I wouldn't mistake him."
Qi Jinnian said this with certainty.
Jing Yu felt a little confused.
Yu Zeyao deceived himself
Also, why is Jingrong still in a wheelchair
"Let me ask..." Jing Yu turned back to his office and took out his cell phone from the drawer.
She found the number Jingrong had called her from and said to Jinnian, "Look, this is indeed an overseas number."
Qi Jinnian said, "Maybe he has returned to China recently. Besides, Yu'er, you know that with today's technology, it's not a problem to forge a foreign number."
That's true.
Jing Yu called back, but the number displayed on the other end was invalid.
Her heart sank.
It was then that I suddenly remembered that, except for the first phone call, all the communication between Jingrong and I was through video chat software.
If it was Yu Zeyao who lied to me, then why would Jing Rong also help to lie
"How is it? Is it connected?" Qi Jinnian asked.
"No." Jing Yu hung up the phone disappointedly, feeling depressed. She thought about it and dialed the number.
When she moved out of the Vice Presidential Palace and lived alone in a villa, her phone number had been blocked by Yu Zeyao. Now, she had no idea whether she could still call him.
Jing Yu dialed the number tentatively.
The phone was connected quickly.
Jing Yu breathed a sigh of relief. Not bad.
After about two rings, the phone was connected.
Jing Yu couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation. She hadn't contacted him for a long time, and hadn't heard his voice for a long time...
"Hello." A female voice came from the other end of the phone, and the voice shocked Jing Yu.
She was dazed for a moment, thinking she had dialed the wrong number. She took the phone away from her ear and confirmed it again.
correct.
It was indeed his private number.
He usually answers his private number himself. Even if he is very busy, it is likely that only Zhuang Yan and others will answer.
And now…
The person who answered the call was Mo Huan.
"Hello?" The other end seemed to have heard nothing, so he spoke again.
Jing Yu pinched her fingers into her palms, and she took a deep breath to calm herself down, "I'm sorry, I want to find Mr. Yu."
"Mr. Yu is asleep now, so it's inconvenient for him to answer the phone. Is there anything I can help you with?"
Jing Yu just felt dazed and could hardly stand still.
After a long while, she finally squeezed out a few words from between her teeth, "Thank you, it's okay..."
Without waiting for the other party to say anything, she hung up the phone and stood there, looking pale.
Qi Jinnian asked worriedly, "Yu'er, what's wrong?"
"…No." Jing Yu shook her head. Her hands were resting on the table, and her slender arms were trembling slightly. She stared at the table in a daze, and when she blinked, she felt a burning and sour feeling coming out.
"Yu'er?" Seeing that her face looked strange, Qi Jinnian looked at her worriedly.
Jing Yu raised his head and forced a smile, "I'm fine. I'm sending a video to Jing Rong now. He's very good and won't lie to me."
Seeing her like this, Qi Jinnian nodded and said nothing more.
———
Jingyu was distracted the whole afternoon. Professor Luo saw that she was not in the right state of mind, so he let her leave early in the afternoon.
She was in a daze the whole way and didn't even notice that she had missed her stop. She didn't wake up until she reached the end of the subway.
He quickly got off the car and sat back down.
When she returned home, she kept trying to contact Jingrong via video call. However, no one from Jingrong's side answered the call. This made her already uncertain heart become uneasy.
Where is he
What is the situation now
Why did he hide it from her when he had clearly returned to China? Or, in other words, he actually never left the country from the beginning to the end? !
If that's the case, why would Yu Zeyao lie to himself
Thinking of that person, Jing Yu felt as if needles were stabbing his heart. During the time when he had not appeared again, had he been with Mo Huan
Jing Yu was at a loss and sad.
I really wanted to ask him for clarification, but suddenly I realized that I no longer had the right to ask these questions.
Just as I was daydreaming, there was a soft knock on the door.
