Ye Mi turned around and went to the customer service department of Feiyang Airlines. Sun Jian had recovered and officially came to work today. The company assigned him to the complaint department of the customer service department. When she entered, she found that she was late. She was the only one left among the six of them. As soon as she entered the door, she was surrounded by everyone and scolded. Naturally, she valued love over friendship. Ye Mi had her own difficulties but could not speak. She could only force a smile, "Okay, okay, I was wrong, but it's rare that everyone is free today. Why don't I treat everyone to dinner tonight as an apology."
Everyone responded in unison, "You can't treat us too cheaply, do you hear me?" Ikkiu came over and said, "You still owe us a meal. Last time you got an A in the simulator test, you and Tongzhe were the only ones who got A among the six of us, and you said you would treat us at that time."
"Okay, let's go to Qiaojiang to eat. I heard that an Indian restaurant just opened there. We can go and try it."
"Ye Mi, can you call Teacher Qiao? I want to thank him very much. If it weren't for his help, I would probably be unemployed now." Sun Jian looked at her, his eyes full of expectation, but Ye Mi was still upset at the moment.
"No problem!" As everyone was talking, Qiao Yan walked in, stood next to Ye Mi naturally and put his arm around her shoulders, "Why did you come here by yourself? I'm still waiting for you upstairs." Qiao Yan looked at her face with a complaining look.
Ye Mi pursed his lips, but couldn't get angry, "I'm already late, I thought you were coming down."
Qiao Yan was not angry, and rubbed her hair, "You just have something to say, how about this, I'll treat you today, we won't go to Qiaojiang to eat, let's take everyone to Weilei Qingdong to eat the cuisine of international masters." After saying that, Qiao Yan walked up to Sun Jian and held his shoulders, "Well done, you must work hard, and don't embarrass the teacher no matter what position you are in."
Ye Mi's heart was full of contradictions. She didn't know how to understand the man in front of her. It seemed that she had never really understood him. She knew that he was a proud boy who could fly in the blue sky, so she worked hard to take the test. When she felt that she could fly shoulder to shoulder with him, she found out that he was actually from a wealthy family. She studied hard, learned to make coffee, learn to eat Western food, learn to dress and put on makeup, and learn all the etiquette of wealthy families. She didn't want to enter the upper class, but she didn't want to stand next to him and embarrass him. She was always complacent and thought that she had a bachelor's degree from a prestigious university, but he had already obtained two master's degrees from Stanford at the age of 18, and even had his own investment company. She knew nothing about these things before. So how many things was he hiding from her now
Ye Mi sighed quietly in his heart, then smiled at everyone, "Then let's listen to Teacher Qiao."
Qiao Yan hugged her waist, but he could vaguely sense her unhappiness. In such a chaotic situation, he knew that he couldn't expect a woman to remain calm, so all he could do was stand firmly by her side.
After leaving the Complaints Department, Qiao Yan was originally planning to contact the simulator, but halfway there he was called by Lin Pei to make an appointment. Lin Pei was waiting in the car, and he saw Qiao Yan as soon as he entered the parking lot. He started the car, drove directly to Qiao Yan, lowered the window and stuck his head out, "Get in the car!"
Qiao Yan stood still, "Why should I go with you?"
"If you don't want to end up like me, get in the car or leave." Lin Pei sat up straight without looking at him.
Qiao Yan frowned and thought for a while, then finally opened the car door and got in.
Mother He leaned over and patted He Qingwen's shoulder on the back of the chair, "What's going on between the two of them? Are those messages in the company true? Qiao Yan wouldn't really do anything to let Ye Zi down, right?"
He Qingwen pulled the corner of his mouth, "Mom, I'm not a paparazzi, how can I know all these things." He turned around and looked at his mother, "Mrs. He, how do you know everything?"
Jiang Mingming looked rather melancholy. "I asked her out several times, but she always played Tai Chi with me and never went out to eat with me. So of course I had to ask around."
He Qingwen actually didn't believe those rumors. At least he felt that He Xiaoning was no better than Ye Mi in any way. However, he really liked the current drama. It would be best if those two people could be separated in the end. That would be "just what I want."
Ye Mi was answering theoretical questions and reviewing theoretical knowledge in the computer room. He didn't expect that Jiang Mingming actually found the computer room.
"Ye Zi!" This voice startled everyone in the computer room. Ye Mi was a little surprised and slowly stood up, "Mrs. He, why are you here?" She quickly logged out of the system and pulled Jiang Mingming out under everyone's gazes.
"I'm worried about you. I asked you out but you didn't come." She came closer. "I just saw Qiao Yan leave in Lin Pei's car. I don't know what happened."
Upon hearing the news, Ye Mi's heart suddenly tightened. She was secretly worried that Lin Pei would tell the truth of that year. She was really scared, very scared.
"What's wrong with you?" Jiang Mingming saw her uneasiness, "Is there really something wrong?"
Ye Mi sighed, "Let's find a place to sit down. I think I need to find someone to give me some advice." She looked at Jiang Mingming. She had never thought that she would face such a special rival in love under such circumstances. If she had never gotten it, she would not be so panicked. Now she was in a dilemma.
Lin Pei drove Qiao Yan to the temporary helipad. It was open and windy. Qiao Yan and Lin Pei stood on each side of the car and looked at each other. "What do you want from me here?"
Lin Pei himself felt unprepared. After all, saying this would hurt his male dignity. "Qiao Yan, is He Xiaoning's child yours?"
Qiao Yan's face darkened in an instant, and he clenched his fists tightly. "I really want to beat you up, Lin Pei. What kind of person do you think I am? I cheated on my wife and even messed around with my colleague's wife? I can tell you clearly, don't guess. I just want to be with Ye Mi now, and I will be with Ye Mi for the rest of my life. I don't care about anyone else. If He Xiaoning chose you, then it has nothing to do with me. I, Qiao Yan, am proud, not so tasteless and frivolous."
Lin Pei felt somewhat ashamed and somewhat relieved, "I'm sorry, please understand my feelings, that is a life, my child..." He was a little excited, "Qiao Yan, He Xiaoning has never given up, she wants to return to your life again."
Qiao Yan was shocked and looked at Lin Pei in astonishment, "But I'm already married. She was the one who chose to leave me. How could she..." This made Qiao Yan unable to understand, "At that time, I tried my best, but she left so resolutely..."
"What if she tells you now that she was treated unfairly at that time and had her own reasons?"
Qiao Yan was speechless. He looked at Lin Pei with burning eyes. After a moment, he turned around. "Don't I have the ability to help her through this difficult time, or does she simply not believe that I will stand by her side and bear the pressure together?" He looked up at the sky. A plane took off and was making its first turn. A beautiful side slide brought his thoughts back to the past when he had watched her back so desperately. The heartache seemed to come back faintly. "Forget it. It's all in the past. If I missed it, I missed it. I can't let Ye Mi down."
"Just because you don't want to disappoint her?"
"Because I love her and I am afraid of hurting her, I try my best to make her happy. Because she has worked so hard to love me and has suffered so much, I cannot let her down."
Jiang Mingming looked at the troubled Ye Mi with a heart full of heartache, "Then why did they break up in the first place? Is it really Qiao Yan's fault? You are so worried that he will know the truth."
Ye Mi lowered her head, "This is someone else's privacy, I still can't tell you, but I really don't have the confidence, it's better not to let me know." She would rather be confused and happy like a silly girl, no matter what the undercurrents are, at least she can enjoy happiness to her heart's content when he is around. She grabbed the juice in front of her and drank a large glass in one breath, feeling really worried.
Jiang Mingming didn't know what to do. "Love requires some white lies. Besides, you haven't lied yet. Besides, you said it's private, so don't say anything more."
“Wouldn’t that be selfish?”
"Love is inherently selfish. Do you think you can't give him happiness?"
Ye Mi stared at Jiang Mingming. Although he felt that what she said made sense, he still couldn't help feeling guilty, so he decided to just put it off for now.
"Let's talk about something happy. I saw your mother-in-law the other day. I told her that I wanted to adopt you as my goddaughter. She looked very proud." Jiang Mingming grabbed her hand, "It won't be so difficult for you to work in the Qiao family in the future. I will announce the news during Feiyang's 30th anniversary celebration." Seeing Ye Mi's astonishment, she patted her hand for fear that the child would back down again, "It's settled."
In the evening, Qiao Yan hosted a party at Weilei Qingdong to celebrate Sun Jian's recovery and return to his new job. The whole family was having a great time. In addition to Sun Jian, the other five people's jobs were roughly determined. Ye Mi, Zhou Tongzhe and Chen Tao were assigned to international routes, while Dawei and Ikkiu were assigned to domestic flights, which made the children who flew long-distance routes envious.
"I heard that two outstanding students will emerge from among us." Ikkiu looked at Zhou Tongzhe, "I think you have a chance, why don't you stay here? The food here is delicious."
"What are you talking about? I was involved in a fight that ended up at the police station. How could I be involved?" Zhou Tongzhe said with a disdainful expression.
"Didn't that incident qualify as an act of bravery? The girl has come to me, and I can't express my gratitude unless I give myself to her." Chen Tao had been waiting to watch the fun. In his opinion, the girl named Luo Yi was very tenacious. Recently, she got some advice from someone, but she was able to find his buddy's weak spot.
Qiao Yan smiled, rubbing his hand under the table and holding Ye Mi's hand tightly. He hoped to let her feel him and feel that he understood her feelings.
The secret that could not be told still broke Ye Mi's peaceful life. Whenever she saw He Xiaoning, her heart felt like a thorn. She was not a hard-hearted person, but she did not have the courage to confess. Her love for Qiao Yan was too heavy, so heavy that she would not be able to live without him. Even if she was just chatting with him on QQ across the ocean, she would feel warm and comforted.
She found that she had fallen in love with this kind of spiritual communication without meeting each other again. The pressure of hiding the truth made her unable to look into his passionate eyes every time she saw him face to face. People should not do things that go against their conscience.
Ye Mi made a cup of milk tea and continued chatting on the bed with her notebook. After thinking about it for so long, she finally decided to tell Qiao Yan about this matter. She couldn't live with the guilt for the rest of her life.
"Come back. When you come back, I will tell you a secret. You must be mentally prepared." Ye Mi thought for a long time and finally knocked on the key.
Qiao Yan smiled and opened his electronic notebook. There were quite a lot of things going on recently. He had to take the teacher's assessment when he returned, and then celebrate his birthday. He wondered what good ideas Ye Mi would come up with, and then there was Feiyang's 30th anniversary celebration.
"You're not going to tell me that you've ever done something to offend me!"
This unintentional remark hit Ye Mi's acupuncture point. Her hand trembled, and she accidentally spilled half a cup of milk tea on the computer, and the notebook screen suddenly went black. Ye Mi quickly turned off the power, quickly found a hair dryer, and blew it on the keyboard for a long time, but it still wouldn't open. She was a little frustrated. Her home broadband had not been renewed yet, and now she couldn't go online.
Ye Mi jumped out of bed and ran directly to Qiao Yan's study, opened his computer, but found that there was a password. She tried his birthday, her own birthday, and phone number, but none of them were correct. Ye Mi complained, "Are you a spy for MI6?" She put her hands on her hips, and suddenly a light bulb went off in her head. She remembered that he also had a business jet. She rummaged through the cabinets in his study and finally dragged it out from the cabinet under the bookcase.
