Gu Wanyang also knew that Jian Xu was definitely not telling the truth, but he didn't ask any further. There was no point in saying anything more, but Gu Wanyang had already made up his mind. The three of them finished the meal, each with their own thoughts.
He arranged for a small guest room for Jian Xu to rest. In any case, Ji Mufeng would be sending her off soon.
Ji Ruxue ordered a little dessert later on. Although she was unwilling, she still prepared to ask Jane out of courtesy if she wanted to come out and have a taste.
Ji Ru Xue suddenly stopped when she reached the entrance. Although the voice was soft, Ji Ru Xue still heard it. She secretly placed her ear against the door and heard a simple voice coming from inside.
"What do you want from me?"
"I've already done what you guys told me to do. When will my things be paid for?"
"I've already told you all, that girl is called Ji Ruxue."
"I'm sure it's her."
Ji Ruxue slowly stood up and retreated. He retreated all the way to the door of Gu Wanyang's room and asked, "Gu Wanyang, are you there?"
Gu Wanyang had just found out about the attack on headquarters. While he was doing some repairs from afar, he heard Ji Ruxue's voice. He closed the computer and opened the door.
"Ruoxue, what's the matter?"
Ji Ruxue walked in and closed the door. She only calmly looked at Gu Youyang without saying a word.
"Eh?" Ru Xue, what's wrong with you? "
"Are you still going to send me as a spy?"
"Do you know how I've lived for so many years in the beginning? You still want to send me back? Send me back to that dark place? Have you considered my feelings? "
Gu Tianyang was momentarily stunned before his brain began to race as he prepared to answer, "No, Ru Xue, listen to me."
"What are you guys talking about? See what excuse you can give me? Actually, there's no need for it, "Ji Ruxue gave a bright smile, but it was a little desolate." Just tell me once, and it'll be fine. Oh yeah, it's time for the dessert. I'll be going back after eating. It's been so many days since I've been out. It's time to go home. "
Ji Ruxue did not linger and turned around. Step by step, she left the room. The moment she turned around, a tear rolled down her face. However, it was instantly dried up by the wind.
People were passing by on the street. As the breeze blew, the leaves of the wutong trees on both sides of the street fell. No one paid attention to them. They only wrapped their clothes tighter and left in a hurry.
Ji Ruxue walked aimlessly on the street. Ever since she was rescued by Ji Mufeng from a hell-like place, she had never felt this confused again, but that was her light. As long as it was Ji Mufeng's request, she wanted to do her best to get it.
It was only because his name was Ji Mufeng.
The scalding teardrops lost their temperature when the autumn wind blew. Like ice, they fell onto the ground, leaving behind only a small trace of water before disappearing, as if they had never existed in the future.
"J-Miss Ji?" A person who was sent out by Ji Mufeng to search for Ji Ruxue rubbed his eyes as he looked at Ji Ruxue, who was walking on the sidewalk with lifeless eyes. They truly could not reveal themselves. They had been searching for someone for days, and now, they were right in front of their eyes.
"Miss Ji, it's really you. Hurry up and come back with us. Boss is getting so anxious." The man stopped Ji Ruxue in an instant.
Ji Ru Xue raised her head. She didn't recognize this person. "You are?"
"Oh, Mr. Ji asked us to come find you. Where have you been these past few days? "Chairman Ji sent his subordinates to find you, so that's why the heavens …" The man suddenly realized that he had talked too much and quickly covered his mouth.
Ji Ru Xue didn't think too much. She just felt that Ji Mu Feng's anxiousness should be due to Chu Yan's actions. Does he need to be a spy now? He hadn't expected that everything would happen so quickly.
"Let's go back." Ji Ruxue did not make things difficult for this man.
Ji Ruxue sat in the carriage and headed towards the Ji residence. Looking at the scenery that was gradually becoming more familiar, she couldn't help but feel upset.
The first to come out to welcome him wasn't Ji Mufeng, nor was it Wang Ma. It was instead Feng Qingyun, who was delighted, followed closely by Ji Mufeng, who had a gloomy expression, and Jiang Xuelin, who was beaming with joy.
The atmosphere in the Ji Residence was strange.
"Sister Ji, you're back. Mu Feng and I are worried for you." Feng Qingyun was the first to arrive as she held Ji Ruxue's hand. Ji Ruxue acutely noticed the change in Feng Qingyun's way of addressing Ji Mufeng.
Ji Mu Feng turned his gaze in the direction of Ji Mu Feng. Ji Mu Feng slowly shifted his gaze away as his heart trembled. Something that he did not know about had happened, and from the looks of it, this matter did not have a good impact on him.
As expected, Feng Qingyun's next sentence confirmed Ji Ruxue's guess, "Sister Ji, in a while, the day of my engagement with Mu Feng will come. If you disappear, we'll die of anxiety."
Engagement?
Who could tell her what had happened in the past few days? Why is he engaged?
If Ji Ruxue were to find out that Feng Qingyun and Ji Mufeng had already reached an agreement, would she go insane?
After Ji Ruxue left, Ji Mufeng stayed at the NC headquarters all day and all night, refusing to go home. This made Feng Qingyun and Jiang Xuelin feel very uncomfortable, but it also gave Jiang Xuelin an opportunity.
Jiang Xuelin took the account books of Feng Qingyun and Ji Mufeng and used their relationship to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get their marriage certificate.
The moment Ji Mufeng saw the marriage certificate, his entire person turned bad and he almost pulled out his gun, killing Feng Qingyun. In the end, it was Jiang Ning who used death to force him to save Feng Qingyun.
But now, everything was settled. Furthermore, Jiang Ning Xi had invited her family and friends, as well as some famous people, to attend Ji Mufeng's engagement banquet in a week's time. When Ji Mufeng heard about it, the invitations had already been sent over.
Of course, Ji Ruxue did not know about any of this and had no way of knowing about it.
"Like snow." Ji Mufeng walked over in the end, "I have something to tell you."
Ji Ru Xue didn't say anything as she followed Ji Mu Feng to the study room.
"If you have anything to say, just say it." Ji Ru Xue calmly said. Right now, she felt as if she had fallen into an icehouse as her entire body was ice-cold.
"Feng Qingyun and I are not what you think." Ji Mufeng originally wanted to say something about Ji Ru Xue going to spy on him, but for some reason, the moment he opened his mouth, it turned into an explanation.
"Yes." Ji Ru Xue unexpectedly didn't ask why as she indifferently asked, "Is there anything else?" If there's nothing else, I'll go back and rest. "
Ji Mufeng didn't say anything. Ji Ruxue left without any hesitation. Ji Mufeng looked at the closed door and suddenly felt a little foolish.
