Jiang Jingting ended the video conference in the back seat of the car. Less than a minute after closing the laptop, the phone rang again. Seeing the note, he hesitated for a moment, and finally connected the phone.

"Give me an explanation." The cold voice was without any politeness.

Jiang Jingting pulled off his tie, poured himself a glass of wine, and said in a calm tone, "I have decided to move RC's headquarters to City A."

The other party roared angrily, "Jiang Jingting! Are you crazy!"

Jiang Jingting didn't speak, waiting for the other party to calm down.

"Don't tell me it's because of Ye Zhen!"

He took a sip of his wine, but still didn't speak.

Shen Yan laughed back in anger, "You two broke up four years ago, do I need to remind you of this!"

Jiang Jingting shook the goblet lightly, the glass reflected wine-red light, luxurious and charming.

"That was unilaterally mentioned by Ye Zhen, and I never agreed."

Shen Yan choked, as if he didn't expect him to say such rascal words.

"If I had known about Hua Xu's acquisition, I would have gone back to China to discuss it for you! What did she do to make you so crazy about her?"

Jiang Jingting lowered his eyebrows and said in a low voice, "She didn't do anything, Shen Yan."

"I thought she had a good life when I was away, but I was wrong."

"Every time I see her, she is in a dangerous situation. Just yesterday, she was kidnapped, do you know?"

Thinking of Ye Zhen's kidnapping last night, fear still eroded his heart.

The price of losing and recovering these four words is too expensive.

He drank the red wine in one gulp, his deep voice sounded forbearing and depressed:
"Shen Yan, I love her. I have let her be alone in that situation for four years. It is impossible for me to continue to let her know all this."

There was silence on the other end of the phone.

half an hour.

Shen Yan's voice was full of helplessness, "Then how do you explain to Uncle Jiang? And the Gu family, do you think she will let you do whatever you want?"

"The only obstacle between me and Ye Zhen is herself. Now that the obstacle is gone, I can handle other external factors by myself."

"Okay, as expected of you, Jiang Jingting, please do it yourself."

Shen Yan dropped this sentence in a broken jar, and hung up the phone.

The young man sitting opposite him roughly understood the outline of the matter, took a sip of his coffee, and his light blue eyes showed a hint of playfulness.

"It seems that this cooperation cannot be negotiated."

"He wants to shift the center of gravity of RC, which is not a simple matter."

Shen Yan had a sullen handsome face, noncommittal to his words, got up and put away the computer, and bluntly said "pay the bill together".

Then he left without looking back.

The man chuckled, but there was no trace of anger on Junyi's face.

Ten minutes later, a luxury car stopped outside the cafe. The girl got out of the car and opened the door of the cafe.

She has a beautiful appearance and looks about in her twenties, with a hasty look on her face. The pale pink custom-made dress makes her noble and elegant, attracting many people's attention.

After looking around, she walked up to the man and sat down.

"What would you like to drink? My treat."

The girl looked at him with unfriendly eyes, her delicate and straight nose revealed a bit of arrogance, "Where is Shen Yanren?"

"gone."

The girl raised her voice, her face was full of displeasure, "Didn't I ask you to hold him back!"

The man seemed to have never heard of it, and said calmly: "Your skirt is stained with rain."

The girl was so angry that she gave him a vicious look, picked up her bag and left.

The man looks out to the gray street outside the cafe.

It was still rainy in London. Pedestrians were hurrying with umbrellas on their feet. Cars passed by and splashed water. In a trance, he seemed to see the girl from the past lying outside the glass door with an umbrella and making faces at him.

Her face is immature and delicate, which is incompatible with the cold rain around her.

He was startled, his heart trembled slightly, and when he looked again, the girl had disappeared.

After a while.

The man got up, put the money on the table, the black windbreaker swayed slightly when he pushed the door, opened the umbrella and stepped into the cold rain alone.
-
In the ward, Ye Zhen watched the monitoring of the man in black at the police station with a tablet.

Jiang Jingting poured her a glass of warm water, opened the medicine and put it on the table, looking at her quiet profile.

"He installed a surveillance camera at the door of your apartment a few weeks ago, and put a tracker in your coat and hat yesterday."

"I have already sent someone to check the whereabouts of the funds in his account. The account holder's surname is Ning."

In City A, 500 million is not too much, but there are only a few people with the surname Ning who are related to Ye Zhen.

Jiang Jingting didn't continue, he was waiting.

Wait for Ye Zhen to tell him her past by herself.

When Ye Zhen rescued him at the age of 15, his grandfather checked the background of her family symbolically. There was only a seriously ill mother and an elderly grandmother.

The column for the father is unknown.

Her precocious personality and cold and melancholy eyes told Jiang Jingting that her background was not that simple.

Having known each other for so long, Ye Zhen has never mentioned her father even though they have long been deeply in love with each other. He thought it might be a pain she didn't want to mention, and he never asked because he was afraid that she would be sad.

Now his hunch told her that it was probably because of that past that she had left London four years ago.

Ye Zhen's eyelashes trembled slightly, she put down the tablet, and said after a long silence: "Jing Ting, do you believe me?"

"Believe."

"Then can you please let me handle this by myself?"

She knew that with his defensive nature, he would definitely not let the mastermind behind him go.

But she had to avenge the Ning family's revenge herself.

Jiang Jingting's Adam's apple slid up and down, looking at her quietly, "Okay."

He was never good at rejecting her.

The future is long, since she doesn't want to talk about it for now, he can wait.

Ye Zhen remembered what he said yesterday, "If you have something to do in London, go back quickly, don't delay things because of me."

"I'm almost fine, and I'm going back to the set tomorrow."

Jiang Jingting watched her take the medicine, raised his hand to wipe the water stains from the corner of her mouth, and stared at her suddenly fascinated.

"how?"

Ye Zhen thought there was something on her face, so she raised her hand to touch it.

Jiang Jingting pulled her hand down, put it on his lips and kissed it lightly, "Zhenzhen, let's talk about what you said yesterday."

Ye Zhen's fingertips felt numb, as if she had been electrocuted, she wanted to withdraw her hand but couldn't break free, so she asked him helplessly, "Which sentence?"

The two looked at each other, and his eyes were burning, "You know."

"If I don't go back to London, can you still let the past go?"

"Not this sentence."

"I've let you down so many times, I don't deserve you—"

"Not at all."

There was a hint of stubbornness in his dark eyes, Ye Zhen laughed, and finally got his wish, "Jing Ting, I can't bear you."

He hooked his lips, "What else?"

Ye Zhen's cheeks gradually turned red, "I love you."

Jiang Jingting took her into his arms, held the back of her head, and covered her lips.

Different from the vengeful one at the Ruan's that night, this kiss was extremely gentle.

He gently lingered on her lips and sucked them. Ye Zhen's lips were numb, and she opened her lips unconsciously. For her own sake, Ye Zhen closed her eyes, her body trembling slightly, bearing his lingering kiss.

After a while, he let her go, and the two gasped slightly.

His black eyes were tinged with emotion, his fingertips brushed across her swollen and attractive lips, his voice was low and sexy, "I'm going back to London tomorrow, and I'll stay for about a month, promise me, take care of yourself. "

"it is good"

She still wanted to say something, but was blocked by Jiang Jingting again, and all the words she wanted to say were drowned in his kiss.
