C77

He was standing a step away from her, his back straight, his posture tall and straight as a cedar. He silently looked at her with a hint of coldness in his eyes, his black pupils making it impossible to find her reflection in them.

Zhan Yan had never thought that she would be able to meet Ji Weiyang again in her lifetime. After all, S City was so big, with a population of ten million. However, they had to meet again. What kind of evil fate was this?!

"Miss Wei, long time no see." His lips curved into a beautiful smile, but his tone was filled with indifference and alienation.

Miss Wei? This unfamiliar name made Zhan Yan unable to respond for a while, and it took a while for her to understand that this was the name he called her. Yes, Miss Wei, it's perfect. Could it be that she could only hope for him to call her 'face' like before!?

"I didn't expect to meet you here." Zhan Yan's lips moved slightly, her voice extremely indifferent. But she kept her head down, not daring to look into his eyes. Zhan Yan admitted that she could not be as calm and confident as Ji Weiyang. She was a person that was overly nostalgic, unable to walk out from that failed marriage.

"Where to? I'll send you off. " He continued, his voice as cold as ever.

"No, no." Zhan Yan shook her head in panic, she subconsciously took a step back and stuck close to the moist wall behind him.

Ji Weiyang did not speak, nor did he have the intention to leave. His tall body was still blocking her path, and his deep, penetrating gaze seemed to pierce through her heart.

"I-I'll go to Building 218, South Avenue." Zhan Yan finally reached a compromise under his deep gaze and casually gave her address.

Ji Weiyang's car drove extremely smoothly in the rain, the silence in the car was extremely strange. It was unknown if it was because of the heavy rain or not, but as Zhan Yan sat in the front seat, she felt that it was hard to breathe.

In the rearview mirror, she could see his handsome, cold profile, but he wasn't looking at her. She was staring intently at the road ahead. In a short ten minutes, Zhan Yan felt that it was extremely long, until she stepped on the accelerator and stopped the car at the side of the road. Zhan Yan raised her head.

"I-I'm here."

Ji Weiyang's eyes were dark and there was no response, as if he did not hear her words. He casually took out a cigarette from the box and stuffed it into his mouth. With a light click, the cigarette smoke lingered in the small space.

The atmosphere had fallen into a deadlock for a moment as they shared the same space, causing Zhan Yan to inexplicably panic. She subconsciously turned around to push open the door, and to her surprise, she discovered that the car door was locked.

"Ji Weiyang, I want to get off." She gathered his courage and lifted her chin to meet his deep eyes.

Ji Weiyang still did not speak a word, and elegantly extinguished the cigarette butt between his fingers in the ashtray.

The rain outside the window was getting heavier and heavier, without any signs of stopping. Ji Weiyang pressed the unlock button on his fingertip, and then, he naturally handed the umbrella over.

Zhan Yan was startled, she never thought that Ji Weiyang would let her off so easily. She thought that he hated her to the bone, that she was even prepared to be mocked by him.

"Thank you." Zhan Yan received the umbrella from him and got off the car. Just as her white cloth shoes touched the ground, Ji Weiyang stepped on the throttle of the car and it charged straight out, splashing a circle of water on the ground.

Ji Weiyang turned the steering wheel, turning the Dark Green Land Rover around the corner and turning it off. His handsome face was cool and handsome. His black eyes focused on what was ahead of him, and not far away, Zhan Yan was holding onto that azure umbrella. He walked into another alley amidst the pouring rain.

The corner of his strong lips curled up into a mocking smile, and with two fingers, he forcefully extinguished the cigarette butt. Wei Zhanyan, playing with him, she's still too green.

Originally, he had really planned to let her go, but S City was so big, and she was a good doctor, yet she had to go to the business under Ji's to be a cleaner. Fine, this time she was the one who took the initiative to provoke him, so he did not let go.

In the narrow space, the sound of his cell phone ringing was slightly ear-piercing. Ji Weiyang slid the button to answer, and saw that it was from a building in the Ji Family Army District. His father gently asked him to come home for dinner tonight.

"Dad …" "Mm, alright, I'll go back now." He turned the car around and the dark green Land Rover sped through the rain.

Military compound, Ji Family.

"Third Young Master, you're back." The nanny bowed and handed the slippers to him.

Ji Weiyang walked into the living room. Unexpectedly, both Lu Manyun and Angel were there, the mother and daughter sitting on the sofa, talking and laughing with the General Ji.

"Vuyo, you're back." Angie stood up with a smile and naturally put her arm around his.

Lu Manyun sat at the side with a look of love between her brows. "Old Ji, look at Wei Yang and Angel, they really are a perfect match between a man and a woman."

Although he was not in favor of Lu Manyun's words, he did not oppose them either. In regards to Lu Manyun's words, it was as if she had tacitly agreed.

Ji Weiyang remained silent, his entire body emitting a faint coldness. Without leaving any trace, he shook off Lu Anqi's pestering and lazily sat down on the sofa.

"Dad, Auntie Lu, we can start eating now." Su Ying walked out of the kitchen and instructed the nanny to serve the dishes.

A few of them sat around the table. General Ji treated Lu Manyun and her daughter with a pleasant smile, and Angel kept on picking food out of Ji Weiyang's bowl, as if they were a family that was blissfully enjoying themselves.

And at this meal, Ji Weiyang ate it in an extremely dull manner. "Dad, I'm full. If there's nothing else, I'll go back first." Ji Weiyang wiped his lips with a napkin and got up.

"Wait a moment, I have something to say to you." General Ji also put down his chopsticks and the father and son duo headed upstairs. Behind him, Lu Manyun nodded at Angel without leaving a trace of trace, telling her to be at ease.

In the study room, the nanny served two cups of Longjing tea and then left.

General Ji leaned on the soft chair, a look of awkwardness flashing across his face.

"Dad, if you have something to say, just say it."

The General Ji let out a helpless sigh. "Weiyang, today your Aunt Lu came to tell me about the matter between you and Angel …"

"Dad, Angel and I are already in the past. I don't want to bring it up again." Ji Weiyang coldly interrupted his father's words.

The General Ji nodded and continued, "I know that Angel's mental state is a bit troubled right now, and she can't have children anymore. But in the end, it's all because of our Ji Family, and we owe her. Your Aunt Lu's intention is not to hold you for a lifetime. She just wants you two to get engaged, give Angel a stable environment, and let her properly treat her illness.

Ji Weiyang crossed his hands in front of his chest and his eyes turned cold. Aunt Lu's meaning, is it Dad's meaning? "

His words caused General Ji to be stunned. This son was too sharp, causing General Ji to suddenly feel like there was nothing to hide. He embarrassedly coughed twice before saying, "Weiyang, after thinking about it for a while, I feel that this is good for you and Angel. After all, you guys can't continue wasting time year after year like this. Even though you're divorced from Zhan Yan now, you must marry her again in the future. A man must have his own child. "

"How long?" After pondering for a moment, Ji Weiyang asked coldly. Even if he wanted to resist, his father would do everything in his power to force him. Fortunately, General Ji was a traditional person, Anqi couldn't have children, so it was fated that she wouldn't be able to truly marry into Ji Family.

"How long will my engagement to Angie last?" Ji Weiyang repeated himself.

"Three years?" General Ji tried to sound him out.

"One year." Ji Weiyang said in a deep voice, almost as if he heard something. Dad, I'm not young anymore. You're right, I should have had a child of my own. I'll only give Angie a year. A year later, whether she's better or not, I'll break off the engagement with her and remarry. "

Ji Weiyang then picked up his jacket and left. He was indeed responsible for An Qi, but this method of forcing her with all his might was something that Ji Weiyang disliked.

"Vuyo." As they passed by the living room, Angel came up to Ji Yunshu again. With a blush on her cheeks and a hint of shyness on her face, she asked, "Ji, did Uncle Ji tell you everything?"

"Yes." He replied without much emotion.

"Viyan, your father and I are going to let Angie stay in your villa, so you can take care of her." Lu Manyun interrupted with a smile.

Ji Weiyang squinted his eyes slightly, his cold gaze sweeping across Angel and her daughter, causing them to shiver in fear. Angel nervously pulled at her mother, cold sweat seeping from her palms.

"Alright, I'll get the nanny to clean up the guest room." After a long while, Ji Weiyang finally threw down those words, turned around, and left.

After being thrown on the ground by him, Angel felt somewhat disappointed. Su Ying walked over, held her hand, and complimented her, "Angel, congratulations. It won't be long before I call you sister-in-law."

"Sister Su Ying, you only know how to tease me." Lu Anqi timidly replied.

Outside the window, the torrential rain raged. Violent winds mixed with rain violently invaded, rushing straight in through the gaps in the open window.

Zhan Yan trembled from the cold, her body curled up within the blanket, the cold air penetrating her chest, she hid within the blanket, coughing non-stop, her small face so pale that it caused one's heart to ache.

No one knew that on every dark night, she would be living in endless fear. No matter how tired she was, she wouldn't dare close her eyes, because as long as she closed her eyes, the piercing cry of a baby would echo in her ears, and the scene of a red sports car speeding towards her. Her entire body would be in pain, as if it had been crushed by a car.

On the bedside table, there were leftover white painkillers and half a cup of cold water. It seemed like she could only reach them with her hand, but after struggling for a while, a crisp sound came from the silent room. The glass shattered and water and pills splashed all over the floor.

Moisture gradually gushed out of her eyes that were as black as night, and salty tears once again soundlessly rolled down her face. Yet again, it was this clear and cold night. Fear unrestrainedly spread within her chest, practically drowning her …

It was early in the morning, and the rain had passed. Zhan Yan was still curled up in a corner, her posture did not even change. The fine eyelashes lightly closed, casting a shadow over her small, pale face. Her beautiful eyebrows were tightly knitted, and even in her dreams, she was unable to calm down.

Bang, bang, bang. Someone was knocking on the door forcefully from outside. Zhan Yan was startled awake like a frightened bird.

She went to open the door in her slippers. Du Xiaomo walked in quickly, carrying a large and small paper bag.

"Did not sleep well? "His face is so ugly." Du Xiaomo frowned as she looked at her.

"Not bad." Zhan Yan forced out a smile. Normally, she would put on a thin layer of powder to cover her haggard expression, but today, she didn't have the time to comb through her makeup.

"Is it a date, or is there a party?" Zhan Yan stealthily changed the topic.

Du Xiaomo poured all of the clothes in the paper bag onto the bed, and started putting them on her body one by one. It was a blind date. It's arranged by my family. I heard the conditions are pretty good.

The Du Family could also be considered to be a famous family, but Du Xiaomo's illegitimate daughter was extremely awkward. She would often be bullied by her sisters at home, so finding a husband to rely on was the best choice for her.

"Come with me later." Du Xiaomo selected from the left and right, finally choosing a red cheongsam that was noble and generous and suited her well.

Zhan Yan laughed, "Miss Du, are you going to make a blind date?

"Wear simple clothes. Today, you will be my green leaf." Du Xiaomo was dressed in a fiery red long skirt, and her charming posture was spinning on the spot.

Zhan Yan was helpless, she casually put on a T-shirt and a fluffy skirt, then followed Du Xiaomo out.

The rendezvous was set at the rotating Western Restaurant on the roof of the skyscraper. Zhan Yan and Du Xiaomo chose a seat close to the window. On the table, there was a caricature book that was a few metres long — "Go left, go right".

Du Xiaomo kept looking at her watch. The clocks continued to tick off but the other party still had not appeared. Du Xiaomo went to the bathroom to fix her makeup, while Zhan Yan sat in her seat alone, completely bored out of her mind. Her slender fingers casually flipped through the pages of the comics on the table. As she flipped through the pages, she was unknowingly attracted to them.

The comic book was about the city, a book dedicated to those who were destined to meet. They were destined to meet! What a beautiful word.

In the book, a few meters said: We watch fish love birds, cats love mice, dinosaur frogs, princes and princesses, we see meteors fly past, see trees bloom, I can't wait for you to fall in love with my miracle!

His pale white fingertip gently caressed the printed calligraphy, Zhan Yan's heart inexplicably swelled up with a sorrowful emotion. Unknowingly, his eyes had already been blurred with tears.

"Does this book look good?" A male voice suddenly sounded out from above his head. Zhan Yan raised her head blankly, her eyes were misty and she saw a young and handsome face. His lips had a playful smile, at the same time, he was sizing her up.

He did not expect her to be such a spirited girl. She had long black hair, a fluffy skirt, and a pair of misty eyes. Her eyelashes were moist, and her skin was as white as snow.

"Du Xiaomo?"

"Oh, she …"

"Hello, Tang Yu." The other party interrupted Zhan Yan and politely extended his hand out.

Zhan Yan stood up and shook his hand indifferently, "Hello."

"Sit down." Tang Yu made a inviting gesture, and then sat down opposite of her. Waiter, two cups of Blue Mountain. "

Zhan Yan closed the comic book in her hand and put it aside. She then took out her phone and quickly sent a text message to Du Xiaomo.

"This book is pretty good. I just saw how entranced you look. It seems that I've met a bosom friend." Tang Yu laughed and spoke with a gentle tone of voice.

Zhan Yan laughed without a care. It was just that the phrase in the book had touched her heartstrings. As for the story in the comics, she had not understood it too well yet. Too literary, I might not be suitable. " she replied, embarrassed.

"Then what is suitable? A professional medical book? " Tang Yu took a sip of his coffee.

"Not bad." Zhan Yan replied indifferently, and looked in the direction of the washroom from time to time.

"Will the medical staff in obstetrics and gynecology be very tired?" Tang Yu asked again.

"No, very happy." Zhan Yan replied absentmindedly.

"Oh? "What do you mean?" Tang Yu looked at her with interest.

Zhan Yan smiled, but there was a trace of bitterness within that smile. Even she herself did not know exactly how beautiful she was at this moment, causing Tang Yu to almost be infatuated. Only obstetrics and gynecology welcome hope, not death. "

"Zhan Yan!" Du Xiaomo, wearing a gorgeous red dress, leisurely arrived beside the two of them.

"You are Tang Yu? Hello, I am Du Xiaomo. " Her gaze landed on Tang Yu's body without leaving a trace. This man's appearance could be considered to be not bad, with a preliminary impression of 99%.

"Hello, hello." Embarrassment flashed across Tang Yu's handsome face. So he had recognized the wrong person. The red-clothed girl before him was beautiful and generous, and she was a pretty good target. But unfortunately, his eyes already contained the pure and innocent Little Fairy, and he didn't see anything else.

After the meal, Zhan Yan was almost completely silent. On the other hand, Du Xiaomo and Tang Yu were happily chatting, but no one noticed that even though Tang Yu was chatting with Du Xiaomo, his gaze was still following Zhan Yan, and a warm smile hung on his lips.

After sending off Zhan Yan and her, he took out her phone and made a call, "Help me find a person. Her name is Wei Zhanyan."

From Tang Yu's point of view, it didn't matter that she wasn't Du Xiaomo at all. This wouldn't stop him from wanting to further develop with her.

Zhan Yan had an evening shift, so after separating with Tang Yu and Du Xiaomo, Zhan Yan went to the hotel to work.

In the locker room, Zhan Yan just changed into her work clothes, when Du Xiaomo called.

"Zhan Yan, what do you think of him? "She is gentle, refined, and courteous. It is easy to tell that she is a good man …"

Zhan Yan sat on a bench on the side with a phone in her hand and listened with a smile. She could almost imagine Du Xiaomo's infatuated look on the other side of the phone. You said that there's nothing in the sky or on the ground, how would I dare to say anything bad. " Zhan Yan replied with a warm smile.

"Tsk, in your eyes, only that bastard Ji Wei …" Halfway through Du Xiaomo's words, she realized that she had said the wrong thing and almost flicked her tongue.

Zhan Yan's calm face became even dimmer, and after a moment of silence, Du Xiaomo's voice came from the other side of the phone, "Zhan Yan, I'm sorry."

"Nothing, it's time for me to go to work." After Zhan Yan finished speaking, she hung up.

When the evening shift ended, it was on the morning of the second day, and she had not slept for another night, Zhan Yan's complexion became even paler and paler. She changed out of her work clothes in the locker room and walked out with Qi Qing in tow. Zhan Yan could be said to be an abnormal being. Her personality was too mild and she rarely interacted with others. In this hotel, only the cheerful Xiang Qing had a good relationship with her.

"Zhan Yan, have you heard the news? There's a big news appearing in S City recently." Xiang Qing had an extremely exaggerated expression.

"Nope." Zhan Yan's interest rose a little.

"I heard that the piano goddess Lu Anqi is engaged to the Ji's CEO. Recently, all the major newspapers and magazines have been scrambling to report about this matter."

A crisp slap interrupted Xiang Qing's words. The glass cup in Zhan Yan's hand slid down from his palm without any warning, and the glass fragments fell to the ground.

"Ah!" Zhan Yan, how could you be so careless? She pulled Zhan Yan closer in panic to check if she had been hurt by the broken glass. Zhan Yan stood there stiffly with a wooden expression, like a puppet whose soul had been sucked out.

"It's a good thing I'm not injured. Next time, be careful." He took the mop from Qing and cleaned the broken glass and water stains on the floor.

Zhan Yan was unable to recover her senses for a long time, the news of Ji Weiyang and Lu Anqi's engagement continued to reverberate continuously in her ears. Ah, how long had it been since they had divorced? Or could it be that she had occupied Lu Anqi's position in the first place?

"Zhan Yan, you're gone. What are you thinking about? Only after pulling her away did Zhan Yan finally manage to regain her senses.

The two walked out of the hotel entrance side by side. Unexpectedly, they met Tang Yu.

Of course not, this was not an accident. Tang Yu held a handful of roses in one hand, as if he had been waiting here for a long time.
