Ji Xinqing's heart tensed up.

She had asked Bai Ran back then, but he had refused to say anything. He only said that he was tired and didn't want to continue.

The day Bai Ran renounced painting, she was drunk. On that day, she hugged herself and cried loudly.

Scenes of the past flashed through her mind. Ji Xinqing raised her head and glanced at the painting before her.

It was depressing and depressing.

Ji Xinqing once again felt sorry for Bai Ran's painter. She slightly sighed, but then suddenly recalled that a painting of the Bai Ran had been sold at a high price.

Bai Ran's reputation was no longer as great as it was before.

Who bought her paintings?

Ji Xinqing stared at the painting on the wall. After a few seconds of silence, she suddenly asked, "Little Ran, you said that a painting was sold. Do you know who bought your painting?"

Bai Ran shook her head.

"I don't know. I was drinking with you that night when I received a call from the owner saying that a customer had taken a fancy to one of the paintings I hung on the wall, but when I returned, the owner only gave me a cheque. I asked her who the guest was and she said that she didn't know that the customer had called and told her to mail the painting."

The day of the drinking?

Ji Xinqing frowned as she recalled her memories from that day.

He suddenly thought of a person, Gu Ling.

Bai Ran said that Gu Ling had been strolling around the gallery for a while that day.

Could it be …

Ji Xinqing then shook her head. How was this possible?

Everyone knew that Gu Ling was an unlearned and unskilled playboy, so why would he buy paintings?

Letting out a sigh, Ji Xinqing did not continue asking.

"Wow, little Dong Shan, why is she so beautiful today?" Bai Ran suddenly crouched down and pinched Meng Shan's face.

Today's Meng Dong was indeed a bit different from the past.

In the past, she always had a lifeless expression on her face, making her look like an empty puppet.

But today, there seemed to be a strange expression on Meng Li's face. It caused her to feel refreshed.

After inheriting Ji Xinqing's genes, Meng QIngyan was born with a perfect beauty.

She had the same gentle and delicate facial features as Ji Xinqing. Although she had not grown up yet, the young Meng Yangshan was still as delicate and beautiful as a doll.

Bai Ran couldn't help but walk over and kiss her on the cheek, "Xinqing, why do I feel that today's little Dong Shan is so beautiful?"

With that, she leaned forward and kissed him again.

Ji Xinqing smiled and shook her head, "Little Ran, guess what little Dong Shan did today?"

Bai Ran looked at Meng Shan carefully.

She had the same exquisite facial features as before, but Bai Ran could still see a glimmer in Meng Li's eyes.

"What did you do to make her so happy today?" Bai Ran quickly guessed the reason.

Ji Xinqing really wanted to tell the truth. It was because of Tang Jin Yao that Meng Dong Shan was so happy today.

However, as soon as she thought of the name 'Tang Jinyao', a strange feeling would well up in her heart.

It made her feel uncomfortable all over.

Ji Xinqing didn't want to cause any unnecessary trouble, so she skipped over Tang Jinyao and told Bai Ran about Meng QIngshan taking the initiative to get close to her.

Ji Xinqing's hard work and effort were all witnessed by Bai Ran, who was very happy for her.

Bai Ran picked up Meng Dong Shan and said, "Let's go, Xiao Bu Shan. Auntie Ran will cook good food for you today!"

The two of them bought a bunch of dishes at the market and celebrated their return home.

The next day, around 9 AM.

While Ji Xinqing was busy dealing with the documents, she received another call from Tang Jinyao.

"Miss Ji, I'm here."

The corners of Ji Xinqing's mouth tightened unnaturally.

How to... Again?

So, is he trying to ask me to go out and pick him up?

"Got it, Mr. Tang. Please wait for a moment, I'll be right out." Ji Xinqing said helplessly.

Soon, they arrived at the entrance of 'Starry Night'.

Ji Xinqing saw a beautiful man standing under the sunlight.

As for his assistant, Tang Han, he respectfully stood at the side with a large box in his hand.

Ji Xinqing clearly realized that as long as this man was present, the surrounding scenery would lose all color.

Straightening her body, Ji Xinqing walked over and glanced at the box in Tang Han's hands. She unnaturally asked, "Mr. Tang, why did you bring a present here again?"

Tang Jinyao's gaze was glued to her face for a long time. Finally, she narrowed her eyes and smiled, "Miss Ji, I'm here to take a look at Little Flame."

She knew that he had come to visit Xiao Bu Dian, but he had clearly come yesterday …

However, he had already arrived, so it wouldn't be good for him to chase him away.

Ji Xinqing replied softly, "Then I'll thank Mr. Tang on behalf of Little Appearance."

"Tang Han, bring the items in first. Miss Ji and I will be back shortly."

"Yes."

After Tang Han had left, Tang Jinyao remained standing in her original spot.

Ji Xinqing was so nervous that she did not even dare to raise her head.

A voice suddenly rang in his ears, "Hey, be careful. This way!"

Ji Xinqing turned around and saw Yang Qi getting off a truck. She was directing a group of people to move things into the "starry sky".

"Mr. Tang, why are you here?" Yang Qi was very surprised to see Tang Jinyao. She waved her hand in greeting.

Tang Jinyao smiled as he nodded his head. "Miss Yang, let me take a look at little Yang Shan."

Yang Qi looked strangely at Ji Xinqing and smiled, "President — —"

Ji Xinqing glared at her and quickly changed the topic, "Qiqi, what did you buy back?"

"Oh, this," Yang Qi shrugged her shoulders helplessly. "A few rascals destroyed some of the equipment in the game room. I went to buy some new ones today."

"Guild leader, I won't say anymore. I'll be going now!"

Yang Qi commanded the workers again.

The equipment was very large and required three people to lift it.

Two workers at the front and one at the back.

The worker at the back felt a little sore, but after a few steps, he moved his wrist.

However, his hand suddenly slipped and the device unexpectedly fell from his hand.

He happened to pass by Ji Xinqing.

"Be careful!" the worker shouted nervously.

Ji Xinqing, who was standing nervously in front of Tang Jinyao, was struck dumb by her words.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw something huge closing in on him.

It was unknown if she was scared or something, but Ji Xinqing just stood there, motionless.

"Be careful!"

Ji Xinqing felt that she had fallen into a warm embrace. She was pulled back a few steps by that embrace.

A pleasant fragrance assaulted his nose, along with a strong scent that belonged solely to a man.

His ears suddenly felt hot, and his warm breath came down.

"Miss Ji, are you alright?"

Ji Xinqing blinked her eyes and finally reacted.

Her heart suddenly skipped a beat as she hurriedly pushed Tang Jin Yao a few steps back. She shook her head and replied, "Thank you, Mr. Tang. I'm fine."

Startled by this scene, Yang Qi reprimanded the worker a few times, then came over to ask about the situation, "President, you haven't been run over, right?"

"I'm fine. Hurry up and check the equipment."

Fortunately, the equipment was only slightly worn out at the corners and was basically undamaged.

Yang Qi once again scolded the worker with a fierce expression, and then carefully directed them to carry the equipment into the "starry sky".
