Ji Qingyan was not enjoying her meal to begin with, and after hearing He Yuanyuan’s words, she could not continue eating.

“Director Shen went to Yanjing?!”

“That’s right.” He Yuanyuan said with certainty,

“At Director Shen’s level, 1 personally handle their travel expenses. When he left the day before, I even approved one of his 50,000 yuan transactions.”

Ji Qingyan’s expression instantly froze.

Director Shen was already in Yanjing on a business trip. Why would he ask Lin Yi to work overtime?

“Senior Sister, wait for me. 1’11 coming now.”

He Yuanyuan also realized that something was wrong. There was definitely something fishy going on.

He Yuanyuan called Ji Qingyan because she wanted to talk about Guo Ningyue’s marriage.

He did not expect to encounter such a thing by accident.

After the video call ended, Ji Qingyan remained silent for a long time. She sat on the chair in a daze and picked up her phone to calm herself down before calling Lin Yi.

“Are you busy at the lab?”

“The bug we encountered is a little tricky. It’s being dealt with.”

“Can’t you and Director Shen handle it?”

“The two of us aren’t omnipotent. We’ll have to slowly figure it out.” Lin Yi said.

“I don’t think 1 can come back tonight. You don’t have to wait for me.”

“Oh, okay.”

“Mwah.”

Ji Qingyan hung up the phone and sat alone on the chair. Her eyes were red, and tears streamed down her face.

Lin Yi had never lied to her before.

This is something she has been thinking about all along and something she has been competing with.

If there was nothing else, why would he lie to her?

After calming down, Ji Qingyan seemed to have understood everything.

When Lin Yi came back yesterday, he went straight to bed after washing up. It wasn’t because he was tired, but because he had something else to do.

And today, she even lied to him about going to Director Shen’s office to work overtime. It was all a lie.

At the thought of this, Ji Qingyan cried even harder, unable to control her emotions.

“Senior Sister!”

Outside the door, He Yuanyuan rushed in. She was wearing pajamas and her hair was untidied. It was obvious that she had hung up the phone and driven straight to Ji Qingyan’s place.

“Don’t cry, Senior Sister.”

Upon seeing He Yuanyuan, Ji Qingyan cried even harder. She had lost all her composure.

He Yuanyuan was not good at comforting people. She simply hugged her and caressed her back.

He hoped that Ji Qingyan could vent all the anger in her heart.

“I think he might have another woman. He doesn’t love me anymore.”

“That’s impossible.” He Yuanyuan said.

“Not to mention Zhonghai, even in the entertainment industry where beauties gather, there aren’t many who are better-looking than you. How could he find someone else?”

He Yuanyuan also felt that it was impossible, but Lin Yi’s actions were indeed suspicious.

However, if there was nothing fishy going on, there was no need for him to lie to her senior sister.

“Senior Sister, don’t cry. Let’s go to the research institute and grill him.”

“No!”

Ji Qingyan immediately rejected the idea. “It’s meaningless to take the initiative to talk about such things. 1, Ji Qingyan, am not that kind of person.”

“But we have to make things clear,” He Yuanyuan said angrily.

“Could there be something else going on? He wouldn’t just risk the relationship over some other girl.”

“It’s only normal. Once the novelty wears off, he’d naturally lose interest.”

“Just like before. When he was working in the hospital, his relationship with that female colleague was unclear.”

“Wasn’t that matter cleared up? It was a misunderstanding.”

“Who knows if it’s a misunderstanding or not? I just don’t want to be so calculative,” said Ji Qingyan.

“But 1 think what happened today is enough to explain the problem.”

Ji Qingyan wiped her tears and looked sad. It was as if all her energy had been sucked out of her in an instant.

Although she always scolded Lin Yi, she always hoped that Lin Yi and her senior sister would be together.

If they really separated, she would feel that it was a pity.

“Don’t be so blase. It might not be what you think.” He Yuanyuan comforted her.

“Let’s figure out what really happened first. He’ll be home tomorrow. He might have some surprises for you.”

“Not likely.”

If today’s incident had been the only thing that had happened, Ji Qingyan might really have thought this was the case. However, when she thought about what had happened yesterday, she felt that it was unlikely.

Even if he had secretly prepared a surprise for her, he wouldn’t have fallen asleep the moment he returned.

This was not his style at all. Things were not like this in the past.

However, she could not tell He Yuanyuan about this.

“Let’s not worry about that for now. Let’s not jump to conclusions so quickly. Let’s wait for another day and see how things turn out.” He Yuanyuan said.

Better to tear down ten temples than ruin a marriage.

At this point, He Yuanyuan was still on Lin Yi’s side. Otherwise, the two of them might really end up splitting.

However, the prerequisite was that Lin Yi was really not messing around. Otherwise, she would be the first to go up and tear him apart.

“Did you call him?”

“I did.”

“He said that he’s working overtime with Director Shen today and won’t be coming back.”

He Yuanyuan took a deep breath. This was too suspicious.

“I ran out in these clothes, so 1 can’t go there now. I’ll stay at your place for the night and we’ll go to work together tomorrow.”

“Yeah.”

Ji Qingyan nodded indifferently. She was no longer in the mood to pay attention to anything else.

The next morning, Ji Qingyan’s emotion had stabilized significantly, but she was still not in a good mood.

Yesterday’s incident had been a huge blow to her.

“Alright, Senior Sister, let’s not think about these things for now. Let’s have dinner together tonight. I’ll help you get some information out of him.”

“You don’t have to.”

As she put on her clothes, she said,

“This kind of thing can’t be forced. It’s better to let nature take its course. I’ll give him another three days. If he doesn’t take the initiative to explain things to me, I’ll just tell him. There’s no need to waste time like this.”

“But…”

“No buts. Go to work.”

“Fine.”

He Yuanyuan found a set of clothes that she could wear in Ji Qingyan’s closet and drove to work.

He Yuanyuan paced back and forth in the office.

She couldn’t figure it out no matter how hard she thought.

Although the boss was a little dog-like, after such a long time, even a blind person could tell that he was sincere to her senior sister. Moreover, both parties had met each other’s parents. Their marriage was set in stone. Why would such a thing happen?

Could it be because Christmas is approaching that he was acting so strangely?

That seemed to be possible.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Just as He Yuanyuan was letting her imagination run wild, there was a knock on the office door.

“Come in.”

The person who came in was He Yuanyuan’s secretary, holding a document in her hand.

“President He, Xinhua Airlines has sent over a list of tickets.”

“A list of tickets?” He Yuanyuan muttered, “Is it Director Shen’s?”

“It’s President Lin’s..”
