Just as he walked to the bedside, the phone in his pocket vibrated.

It was the number that was not mentioned.

The words were very short, it said, “you go first, I still have some things to take care of. ”

Because of this sentence, Qiao man’s exquisite brows and eyes were immediately dyed with a deep dark hue. Without hesitation, she immediately dialed back the phone.

Comparatively speaking, Yan ‘er should be more anxious than her, anxious to leave this city that was already fraught with danger to her.

If she was so anxious and chose not to leave, something must have happened.

The second the call connected, Qiao man was the first to speak. Her tone was slightly anxious as she asked, “Yan ‘er, did something happen to the Child? or… ”

What answered her was a slightly hurried sound of breathing and the sound of the baby’s intermittent crying.

Sometimes it was far and sometimes it was near, sometimes it was big and sometimes it was small.

The space on the other side seemed very empty. Even the sound of breathing seemed to carry echoes.

In Qiao man’s mind, almost immediately, images of the abandoned factories in the movies or the abandoned buildings left behind after the demolition came to mind.

The signal was not good, but Qiao man could still clearly hear the messy footsteps coming from the other end of the phone, and it was not just the sound of one person’s footsteps.

Her heart tightened, and she subconsciously tightened her grip on the phone, her slender fingers turning white from exertion, she could only lower her voice and ask, “Yan ‘er, what’s going on? Yan ‘er, answer me… ”

Perhaps she was too focused on the voice on the other side, so much so that the door of the room had been pushed open by a tall man, she did not even notice.

Qiao man continued to use the volume of her voice to call Lin Yan’s name, calling out one after another, “Yan ‘er, Yan ‘er, answer me, Yan ‘er… ”

The sound of breathing on the other end became louder and louder, and Qiao Man’s voice had completely lost its calmness. “Yan ‘er, what’s going on… Yan ‘er… ”

Qiao man had not finished her sentence when she heard a blind tone coming from the receiver of her phone, and the communication was immediately cut off.

She tried her best to ignore the loud noise that came from the second the communication was cut off, and tried her best to suppress her emotions, telling herself to calm down, and then continued to dial the number that had just called.

“Yan ‘er, pick up the phone. You have to pick up the phone. ”

Two seconds later, the communication was picked up, but a robotic female voice came through. “Hello, the number you have dialed has been turned off or is not in the service area. Please try again later. ”

She could not believe it. She took the phone in front of her and was about to redial it, but she heard a low male voice beside her. “At first, I thought that old Fu had gone crazy and actually thought that Lin Yan was still alive. It seems that he is not crazy now, but I am. ”

“So, are you going to tell him this secret? ”

“If I don’t tell him, why should I? ” Ji Yunshen lowered his head and looked at her beautiful side profile. “Old Fu might be very happy if he leaves her. Why should I do anything unnecessary? ”

“Then, are you standing here just to say those two ambiguous words to me? ”

Ji Yunshen did not say anything. Instead, he took out a cigarette box from his trouser pocket, took one out and lit it in his mouth. He did not smoke it. Instead, he held it in his hand and lit it up.

“I did this. ”

“What? ”

Qiao man did not realize what he meant at the beginning. After a few seconds, she finally realized that he was talking about Lin Yan.

“Ji Yunshen, you are despicable. ”

“Well, if you want to talk about being despicable with me, I won’t refute you. ”

Qiao man clenched her fists by her side and closed her eyes. “Ji Yunshen, what exactly do you want? ”

“I want to exchange terms with you. ”

“What terms? ”

The tall figure of the man moved closer to the French window. His hand, which was not holding a cigarette, was casually and lazily inserted into the pocket of his trousers. His posture was so noble and elegant that it made people hold their breath.

His voice seemed to be a little hoarse from the smoke, and it became even deeper. “You can leave, but the child must stay. ”

“Of course, I don’t think you will choose to leave in a way that both sides will suffer, right? ”

This was the first time he had been black-bellied, cold, and even a little unreasonable.

In order to achieve his goal, he could do anything.

She had said very early on that she would not talk about love. A man like Ji Yunshen was simply perfect to the point of perfection.

But if she wanted to talk about love, it would be the end of her and him now.

“Do you think I will stay for this child? ”

Ji Yunshen did not speak, or he did not know what to say.

Whether he was despicable or thick-skinned, this was the last bit of connection he could think of with her.

It could also be said that he was gambling. He was gambling that she would not let go of this child that she had barely survived.

Qiao man lowered her head and smiled. She walked to his side and looked at the garden outside the window side by side with him. She said, “alright, Ji Yunshen, I’ll leave the child to you. You let me go, and… Yan ‘er. ”

The man’s eyes that were as dark as the night were always looking out of the window. When he heard her, he did not reveal any emotions. He looked as if he was hiding something.

After a long time, Qiao man thought that he would use this method to continue the endless cycle of their previous ups and downs. Only then did she see him open his thin lips slightly and say a few words that were extremely clear.

He said, “okay, I’ll let you go. ”

After hearing his words, Qiao man miraculously did not feel sad, nor did she feel happy. She only felt relieved.

If this was really the last reason that they could be separated, then she was willing.

After all, a child with congenital heart disease was not like a healthy child. By his side, he had a better chance of surviving than by her side.

It was probably because they had not seen each other since birth, so they did not have too deep of a relationship.

Or perhaps, she felt that her life was no longer important, let alone that child whom she had not seen before.

The two of them did not speak. After a long silence, he asked, “have you thought about where you want to go? ”

“To Syria to become a battlefield psychologist. ”

Ji Yunshen’s pitch-black eyes seemed to darken even more. He raised the cigarette in his hand again, took a deep breath, and said slowly, “I already have the divorce agreement here. You don’t need to sign another one, just leave. ”

“But… ”

Qiao man turned to look at her, her brows furrowed deeply.

She had already faked a divorce once, so she could not trust him so easily anymore.

“Qiao Man, where did you get the confidence to think that I have to be with you? ” The moment she looked over, Ji Yunshen shifted his dark gaze from the window to her, and his eyes met hers. “You can leave without worry. ”

After saying that, he turned around and left the room.

The feeling he gave off was that he was perfunctory, and had no intention of truly wanting a divorce.

“Ji Yunshen… ”

The moment his figure disappeared at the door, Qiao man called out to him, “I hope that all our past feelings, hurt, and pain can be written off and that we can part on good terms. “.

The man’s tall figure obviously froze, but he concealed it very well and did not let her notice.

“I also hope that when we meet again in the future, we will be strangers. ”

The man’s voice was as low and deep as ever, with a hint of Husky sexiness. He said, “okay, as you wish. ”

Then, the man’s figure disappeared from the doorway without even turning his head.

How wonderful, they had finally come to an agreement.

This time, finally… … Finally, it was all over …

…

The next day, it was cloudless and sunny.

Qiao man had already packed her luggage and left. She did not even intend to keep this man, so in this villa, there were actually very few things that she could take with her.

In the end, she practically did not take anything with her. She only took a few pieces of clothing, a few books that she liked to read, and that album from when she was a young girl.

The pink suitcase lay on the side of the bed. She flipped open the photo album, but she did not find the photo that was placed on a very conspicuous page.

She thought that she had missed it on another page, but after flipping through it a few times, she could not find it.

Could it be that she had lost it somewhere?

She searched for a while more, even running into the study to search for it for a long time, but she still could not find it.

She felt that this might be fate.

Fate. They had to be completely cut off from each other. There was no longer any connection between them.

That photo didn’t mean much to her. She had only seen him arguing with Ji Han in the alley at the corner of the street with her own eyes. The loneliness between his eyes, the warmth on the side of his face, and his stiff body all told her.. How much he loved Ji Han.

At that time, she had been thinking, why would a proud son of heaven who had been in the military for three generations be so devoted to his feelings And why would that girl, who was clearly timid and selfish in her words, be so devoted to him?

So when she saw him again on the street in a foreign country, she became like a stalker, following him from the subway station to the street Then from the street to the dilapidated apartment where he lived.

Because she was traveling abroad at that time, she always took a camera with her. Maybe the Sun was very bright that day, and there was a little loneliness in his figure, so she couldn’t help but raise the camera to take photos of him.

Later, she returned to China and developed a lot of photos, but because her apartment had been stolen once, that was the only one left.

She searched everywhere, and when she couldn’t find it, she didn’t continue to search. Instead, she supported the corner of the table and slowly squatted down. In the end, she curled up on the high-class carpet, forming a hugging posture.

The clock in the study kept turning forward, and the clicking sound seemed to lengthen the time infinitely.

Just as she felt that her legs were numb and blood wasn’t flowing smoothly because of this crouching movement, she reached out her hand and was about to support the corner of the table to stand up when she caught a glimpse of a stack of documents in the encrypted drawer of the desk that hadn’t been closed in time.

On the top was the divorce agreement, and on the bottom… … Was the Mingyuan Group’s business document …

She hesitated for two seconds before taking out the business document on the Mingyuan Group under the divorce agreement.

After she took it out, the font on it clearly entered her eyes.

It read: “Mingyuan Group’s share Split” and “Mingyuan group’s income and expenditure details. ”

In simple terms, it was about the money in the Mingyuan Group’s accounts.

Although she did not understand these business operations, she still knew the basic knowledge. With this document, it was equivalent to grasping the economic lifeline of the Mingyuan group. If she took this document, she could go to the bank.. And withdraw all the money inside.

And this money was almost the sum of the assets of the few large listed companies. The amount was shocking.

She had always known that Ji Yunshen was very rich, but she did not know that he was rich to this extent.

Thinking of this, she lowered her head again and carefully flipped through the two documents.

If she took all this money away, would he hate her even more?

And then, completely and completely, without any perfunctory, let go… … Or forget about her ? ?

She could not help but grip the document tightly with both hands. After a few seconds or even ten seconds, she closed the encrypted drawer and left the study with the document in her hands.

At this time, in the underground wine cellar, a man was drinking red wine. In his hands was the photo that Qiao man was looking for repeatedly.

That was the street in Helsinki. He was wearing a black suit pants and white shirt that had not changed for ten thousand years. The sunlight shone down from the trees on both sides of the road, not only lengthening his back, but also lengthening the slender figure of the girl holding the camera.

In his impression, he had never seen Qiao Man.

Whether it was the year he was in Helsinki or the few years when she was famous, he had never seen her before.

He had only heard of this name, and only knew that she was very beautiful.

At the back of the photo, there was the girl’s delicate handwriting: How much hatred does the West wind have, it can’t blow away the curvature of the eyebrows.

Was she talking about him?

Why did he feel that such a strong wind couldn’t blow away the sorrow between his eyebrows?

He shook his head and smiled bitterly. Then, he poured himself a glass of wine and drank it in one gulp.

…

After Qiao man returned to her room, she asked someone to look for connections and contacted the manager of a bank.

After some inquiries, she said that only legal persons who held stocks could take away all the money on their books. Moreover, such a large amount of money needed to be made an appointment with the bank in advance.

As the plane left Forest City at eight o’clock in the evening, she did not have much time left. Just as she was about to give up, the bank manager on the other side said again.. “however, Ming Yuan Group is a super member of our bank. If you are really anxious, our bank will open a green channel for you. Moreover, if there is no legal person, the legal advisor of the group can also be present. In this way, it is convenient and grateful for the customer’s support to our bank for many years… “. … ..

Qiao man did not listen carefully to the manager’s polite words. When she heard that the legal advisor could also be present, her mind drifted out for a few seconds.

If she remembered correctly, the legal advisor of the Ming Yuan Group was Shen Yebai.

And Shen Yebai and Ji Yunshen were good friends for so many years. They were good partners. It was impossible for them to be present.

After thinking about it in her mind, she smiled and said, “okay, I got it. ”

After hanging up the phone, Qiao man held her phone and called Huo Qingtong.

Huo Qingtong was drinking in the bar. When he saw the number on the caller ID, he frowned slightly and quickly swiped the answer button. “Miss Qiao, what’s up? ”

Qiao man did not beat around the Bush. “Huo, I remember that you owed me a favor back then. Now, I want you to return it to me. ”

Huo qingtong seemed to have drunk a lot of wine, and his voice was low and hoarse. “Oh, did I hear wrong? You, Miss Qiao, the daughter of the Qiao family, the glorious Mrs. Ji, do you still need a favor from a nobody like me? ”

“Are you still not returning it? ”

“I am. You know me. I don’t like to owe people things. ”

Qiao man took a deep breath. “Okay, wait for me at the entrance of the forest city bank with Shen Yebai. You don’t have to ask why. Just do as I say. ”

“Okay. ”
