After a pause, Ji Xinqing added, "no, send her directly back to young master Tang."
"Xinqing, what about you?"
"I'll see a friend." Ji Xinqing winked at the two bodyguards decisively. "You'd better clean up yourself first, and then think about how to explain it to me."
Bai ran shut up, and she was quickly stuffed into the car.
After the car left, the remaining two bodyguards asked, "little lady, where are we going?"
Ji Xinqing didn't speak. He looked ahead, but his face was cold.
The bodyguard looked at her suspiciously, but only saw a cafe opposite. A man was sitting quietly by the window.
The man stared not far away. He was in a trance and didn't know what he was thinking.
Ji Xinqing seems to be looking at him.
Two bodyguards, you look at me and I look at you. No one can guess Ji Xinqing's relationship with this man.
They were stunned, but Ji Xinqing had walked towards the cafe.
"Long time no see," Ji Xinqing went to the window and smiled faintly at the man, "Dr. Shen."
Ji Xinqing saw a cup of coffee in front of the man and said, "it seems that Dr. Shen has been sitting here for a long time."
Shen Mu paused for a moment and took a long time to look back. "President Ji, why are you here? Are you... Busy?"
Ji Xinqing picked her eyebrows and smiled. "I have worked with Dr. Shen for so long. I should be a friend. Can't I come and sit down when I have a friend?"
"Friend?" Shen Mu pondered these two words, and then looked at Ji Xinqing's smiling face. "Also, President Ji and I should have become friends a long time ago."
Ji Xinqing frowned.
Hearing Shen Mu's words, many vague fragments quickly flashed through her mind. It seemed that someone kept talking in her ear, but she couldn't hear what could be said.
Without further reflection, Ji Xinqing collected her eyes and suddenly asked, "Dr. Shen, do you remember those paintings in the corridor?"
Shen Mu looked at her with an eyebrow. "President Ji said --"
"It reminds Dr. Shen of the paintings of an old friend."
Shen Mu was a little stunned. He lowered his eyes and then smiled low.
"President Ji, you remember everything for so long. Your memory is really good."
Ji Xinqing squints at him, "but I'm curious now. Did Dr. Shen find the old man?"
Shen Mu didn't answer her immediately, but she turned her head and looked out of the window at the gallery.
The door of the gallery was in a mess, with broken shells of raw eggs everywhere. The female boss was leading several employees to clean the floor.
"It seems that Dr. Shen should find the old man." Ji Xinqing said confidently.
"Yes, I've found it." Shen Mu still looked at the gallery.
She hung the picture on the Internet and revealed the secret of the picture.
That secret is a secret between him and her. No third person in the world will know it.
But why, when he finally put down his heart knot and came to find him after looking for someone for so many years, he... Would shrink back.
Shen Mu seemed to want to ask something, but as soon as he began to spit out the words "she's been..." Ji Xinqing interrupted him with a cold face, "very good, she's been doing well these years."
After a pause, Ji Xinqing stared at him and continued sarcastically, "with you or without you, she has been very good these years."
Shen Mu's expression finally darkened, "that's... very good."
If he was given another chance, Shen Mu thought that even if she would hate him and hate him, he should still adhere to the original choice.
Choose a new home for her. There is a new father and a new mother. They will be very good to her... Even without him.
After all, it was his only choice.
"Dr. Shen, you and I should both know Xiao Ran's identity.
I don't want to know the past of you and Xiao ran, and I don't want to know why you came out today after being Xiao Ran's brother and looking for her for so many years. What's more, when Xiao ran was embarrassed and was hit with raw eggs, as your brother, why didn't you appear to protect her at the first time.
I just want to ask you a question for Xiao ran. "
Before Shen Mu could answer, Ji Xinqing stared at him and said, "why didn't you want her back then?"
Afraid that Shen Mu didn't hear clearly, Ji Xinqing repeated, "Dr. Shen, why didn't you want her?"
The cafe is very lively, but no matter how lively it is, it seems that it has nothing to do with this quiet corner.
Shen Mu hung his head, looked at the coffee in front of him and stared at his eyes. He smiled bitterly, "did she tell you that? Did she tell you I didn't want her?"
Ji Xinqing didn't give him any chance to escape and asked again, "why didn't you want her back then?"
"I never wanted her," Shen Mu smiled at Ji Xinqing, but the smile was very sad.
"I just helped her find a new home. I just want her to live in that new home for a period of time, at most a few years. When I have the ability, I will personally take her out of that new home and live with me."
"But..." Shen Mu's chest hurt violently, "but before I could tell her these words, she disappeared. The day after I sent her away, the family came and told me that she ran away and she ran from that new home."
"From the day she disappeared until now, I have never stopped looking for her, but I know that she is hiding from me, hiding in a place I will never find."
"Then you should have seen her just now," Ji Xinqing interrupted, without any sympathy on his face.
"Do you think that when you chose a new home for her, is she as happy as you imagined?"
Shen Mu didn't answer, or he didn't know how to answer.
He is the only relative in the world. He has been looking for someone who wants to be taken care of in the palm of his hand for so many years. He has been attacked and hurt by rumors on the Internet. Doesn't he feel heartache?
He always knew that in the past ten days, she was looking for him like he was looking for her. If nothing like this happened, when he saw the painting, he would immediately run to tell her, Xiao ran, your brother is back.
But now... He dare not.
His silence fell on the bottom of Ji Xinqing's eyes, but it became another meaning.
Is it because so many geniuses have refused to show up for fear of harming themselves?
Ji Xinqing's eyes are getting colder and colder.
Is this Xiao Ran's brother?
Shen Mu understood her eyes, but didn't explain. He just looked out of the window again.
"President Ji should look down on me now. As a man, I'm so cowardly," Shen Mu said mockingly. "I've never been qualified as a brother from the past to the present."
"If President Ji sees her, please... Bring me a word."
After a pause, he said, "I owe her three words and a long time. If President Ji is willing to help me, please tell her for me. I'm sorry."
