Dont worry. Ill find a chance to tell Ziming. I believe he has the same thoughts as me. Perhaps itll be to his liking. Lets eat. After that, well go and video-call the two little ones, Ji ruikun said firmly.

Gu Quan nodded and drank a few more mouthfuls of chicken soup.

In Florence, at an outdoor restaurant that looked like a private clubhouse, Ji Ziming, Jerry, and Luo Yi were already seated, waiting for ye Changqing and Mich.e.l.le to arrive.

Hey, Luo Yi, why do you think Im the only lonely old man in our group while youre all in pairs? Ji Ziming asked as he took a sip of wine.

Luo Yi took a look at Jerry, put her slender fingers into his big palm, and said gently,I cant answer that. You said that if your fate with her ends, you wont meet again. Believe me, its only a matter of time.

Jerry merely looked at Luo Yi with a doting expression. Although he did not seem to be answering Ji Ziming, he could still hear his thoughts.I dont want to be too pretentious, but thats not realistic. I know that Im just an outsider, but at least I know that when people are by your side, you should know how to cherish each other. Dont let the other person slip away from you because of any small misunderstanding or stumbling block. This is the best way to get along with your current lover. Otherwise, if youre not by your side, theres no love and fate.

Ji Ziming put down the gla.s.s in his hand and thought that Jerrys words made sense. He crossed his arms, rested his elbows on the table, and gently rested his chin on it, looking as if he was staring into the abyss.

Luo Yi was about to say something to persuade Ji Ziming when ye Changqing came over with Mich.e.l.le.

Luo Yi, Ji Ziming, Im sorry. We went to look for Xue ers cousin and something happened, so were late. Ye Changqing pulled Mich.e.l.le into the room and pulled out a chair for her like a gentleman.

Luo Yi flicked her hair and introduced Jerry to Mich.e.l.le and ye Changqing,Its fine. We just arrived. Hey, let me introduce you to my fianc, Jerry.

Then, she looked at Jerry and said sweetly,This is ye Changqing, and this is his girlfriend, mi Xue er! We met in China before this!

The three of them nodded in agreement.

After taking their seats, they saw the man still looking at them in a daze.

Ye Changqing reached out and gave him a push, completely destroying his image of being lost in thought.Hey, Ji Ziming. Everyones here, so why are you still acting so reserved? Didnt he say he had something to say? Should she say it now or wait until after dinner? Were all hungry!

Luo Yi quickly explained,hes an injured Casanova. Were trying to comfort him! Stop talking, you and Xue er should eat something first. After youre full, well have a good talk. Just in time, Jerry and I have something to announce!

Ye Changqing poured a gla.s.s of red wine for mi Xue er and asked with a smile,Oh? Was it? Are you going to announce that youre getting married to Jerry?

Mich.e.l.le, who was at the side, took a small sip of red wine and accidentally met his eyes. Hence, she smiled and nodded in greeting.

Ji Ziming recalled what Luo Yi had told him earlier that Mich.e.l.le had indirectly helped him collect evidence of Shen Fengs crimes when she was in A city. Taking advantage of their eye contact, Ji Ziming ignored their conversation and raised his gla.s.s to mi Xue er.Miss mi, long time no see. I think I need to thank you for a lot of things!

A beautiful smile appeared on Mich.e.l.les face.CEO Ji, youre welcome. Im just helping myself. Otherwise, I wouldnt have the chance to sign up with Luo Yis company and study here.

As they spoke, the two of them downed their drinks.

I heard that CEO Ji has finally found miss PEI GE. Thats great news. Fortunately, shes fine. You two are really fated.

He laughed helplessly.Ha, I did find him, but whats the point? She said that shes not PEI GE and that she doesnt know me. To her, Im just a stranger.

Thinking of this, he took another sip of wine gloomily.

Mi Xue er had also heard some things from ye Changqing, so she consoled him,Its alright. Dont be discouraged, CEO Ji. Since the heavens have arranged for you two to meet again, it means that your fate has not ended. I believe that one day, you will be able to move miss PEI GE with your integrity.

Ji Ziming shook his head.Its too difficult. Shen Feng took her away from me again. Although I know that shes not dead and hasnt disappeared from this world, I cant do anything to make her safely stay by my side again in the sea of people.

After saying all this, he raised his cup and drank alone.

Ye Changqing, who was standing beside her, also stopped the small talk.Hey, I say, Ji Ziming, is it necessary for a man like you to put yourself in such a sorry state? While were a couple and were announcing our engagement and our relations.h.i.+p, youre playing the fool here. Is there any meaning to it? Where was the lone wolf of A citys love scene? Isnt PEI GE still alive? Why couldnt he bring her back to his side if she wasnt dead? Wheres the pride you had when you s.n.a.t.c.hed PEI GE from me?

They could all tell that ye Changqing was trying to goad Ji Ziming out of his depression, but the latter was unable to adapt to the blow.

By the way, Ziming, Luo Yi continued,you said youd tell us something when were all here. What is it?

Luo Yi thought that since she said that PEI GEs matter had caused Ji Ziming to feel even more depressed, she might as well change the topic. Otherwise, it would be a little out of place for Ji Ziming to get drunk on a day that everyone was supposed to be happy.

He put down the gla.s.s in his hand and replied,Oh, youre done talking? Then Im going to talk about business, so dont get bored.

Luo Yi replied,dont keep me in suspense, just tell me. We wont be interested in listening to you when youre drunk.

Thats right, Ji Ziming. Say it while everyones here. Ye Changqing chimed in.

He cleared his throat and pretended to speak.Its like this. Yesterday, I received a call from my father. He said that he knows about our companys jewelry compet.i.tion and that PEI GE is still alive. He wants us to play along and return to the head office to keep her by my side in the name of recruiting a new jewelry designer. He also said that he would settle the relations.h.i.+p between Shen Feng and our family and not let him mess around. Do you think this plan is feasible? Im not too sure, so I wanted to ask for your opinions.
