Just then, that person finally came to find him on his own initiative.
[Golden Treasure: Have you finally bothered to log in to the game and take a look?]
Upon seeing this message, Ji Siyue was startled. Without a second thought, she immediately logged out of her game account.
Her heart was pounding wildly.
So it was really him.
During the three months she had been away from China, it had truly been him taking care of her game account.
Weren't they already broken up? Why did he still help her manage the account?
Calculating by time, he might be married by now. After all, when she left China, she saw two hot topics on the news. One was that he had returned to take over the Qin Group, and the other was that he had gotten engaged to his fiancée.
"Pikachu~"
A call came in from a domestic number. She was extremely familiar with this number. Without having to think, the face of a person popped up in her mind out of the blue.
Who else could it be but Qin Chengyao?
Ji Siyue didn't answer the call. She turned off her phone and then lay down on the bed to sleep.
Because of what happened in the game, she didn't sleep well the whole night.
The next day, she spent the whole day looking for a job but couldn't find one that suited her anywhere.
Finally, she felt the setbacks and blows that life had dealt her.
When passing by a tree, Ji Siyue was so angry that she punched it directly.
"What are you doing?"
Ji Siyue suddenly turned around and saw a man smiling at her.
This was a man in his thirties, dressed in a suit. There was also a person behind him dressed like a secretary. He seemed to be a successful person.
"Sorry, did I bother you?"
"Not really. I just heard you scolding in Chinese when I passed by, so I felt particularly familiar and came over to ask."
Ji Siyue immediately felt extremely embarrassed.
She was in a bad mood and had just vented a few complaints to a tree in a foreign country. She didn't expect to be heard by someone from her own country.
"I'm just in a bit of a bad mood."
When this man smiled, it was as warm as a gentle spring breeze.
"When I first came to the United States, I felt the same as you. Let me guess. Are you having trouble finding a job and feeling a bit lost and frustrated?"
Hearing this, Ji Siyue immediately widened her eyes.
"How did you know?"
"I said that I felt the same as you when I first came to the United States, so I guessed. If you have time, let's have a chat."
"About what?"
"About your next job."
...
"Boss, I can't trace Miss Ji's whereabouts anymore. She suddenly disappeared from her original place. When we went to find her parents, we found that they had also moved away. According to the people there, they seemed to have found a better place to go, so they left there temporarily."
Hearing this news, Qin Chengyao couldn't help but clench his fist on his knee.
He sneered.
"Did they notice me?"
"Probably not. But I investigated Miss Ji's recent income. Her income seems to have suddenly become stable, with a salary coming in every week."
"So, she's found a job."
"It seems so."
"Smack!"
Qin Chengyao slapped his desk directly: "Keep looking! Even if she doesn't come back, her movements must be under my control!"
"Yes, I'll find her as soon as possible."
Since taking office, Qin Chengyao had quickly taken control of the entire company.
He thought this time would also go smoothly, but unexpectedly, it took a full two years.
During these two years, Ji Siyue seemed to have evaporated from the face of the earth. No matter where he looked, he couldn't find her.
Qin Chengyao had also used some underhanded methods, but he still couldn't find her. With just Ji Siyue's own ability, she definitely couldn't have hidden herself so well. This could only mean that someone must have helped her hide.
Who was it?
Who had hidden his April away?
Qin Chengyao deeply felt that his abilities were insufficient, so he worked even harder. During these two years, he turned the Qin Group into one of the top three groups in China.
But even so, he still felt that there was a hole in his heart.
Because that person was gone, and he couldn't find her.
...
At the airport.
A woman with long brown hair pulled a small suitcase and slowly walked out of the airport in high heels.
She took off her glasses, revealing a pair of exquisitely made-up phoenix eyes.
"Sigh... I haven't been back for more than two years. I wonder how much this place has changed."
"General Manager Ji, this time you're returning to China mainly to establish a branch for our headquarters in China and stay for three months. The boss said that you..."
"Okay, okay, I know I need to keep a low profile and try not to show myself in public. Just let the people in the group know that there's someone sitting in the office every day, right?"
"Yes."
"Let's go! Have you prepared a car for me in China?"
"Your apartment and car have already been prepared. They're waiting outside now."
"Let's go!"
Ji Siyue put on her sunglasses again and a smile appeared on her face.
After being away for two and a half years.
I'm back.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the airport, two men got off the plane.
One of them saw Ji Siyue's back and couldn't help but stop.
The other man asked him, "Lao Zhu, what are you looking at? Hurry up. Lao Qin said he'd treat us to drinks tonight."
"I just saw a back that looked a bit familiar... Lao Qi, I think I saw Siyue."
"...That person has been missing for more than two years. Lao Qin has searched high and low but couldn't find her. You must be seeing things."
"I really hope I'm seeing things. If that person is doing well in a foreign country, that's fine. But if she really comes back and is discovered by Lao Qin..."
"Then Lao Qin will surely make her life a living hell."
At night, the city lights were on.
Ji Siyue stood on the balcony of her new apartment, holding a glass of wine.
It had been so long since she last came back. So much had changed in China.
Actually, she had gotten used to drinking alone. But when she returned to China, she always felt like something was missing.
If possible, Ji Siyue would rather turn back time to three years ago, back to when everything hadn't changed...
