Chapter 450 - Jian Yiling Returns (2)
From Sidekick to Bigshot
Yu Xi rushed forward to help Jian Yiling with her luggage: âGod Ling, you havenât changed at all!â
Yu Xi was filled with joy.
This was great! God Ling was still the same God Ling as before! Nothing had changed.
Time seemed to have gone back to three years ago.
God Ling was still cute and adorable. Of course, she still seemed cold to everyone.
âThree centimeters,â Jian Yiling replied.
The voice that came out of her mouth was still the same voice as Yu Xi remembered. Soft and sweet like sticky rice.
âHuh?â Yu Xi questioned as he looked at her.
âIâve grown three centimeters taller.â
Three centimeters was still going taller.
Yu Xi paused for a moment. He tried very hard to hold back from laughing out loud.
He couldnât laugh! He definitely could not laugh at God Ling! He hadnât seen her for so long. They had finally reunited! He couldnât make fun of her right away!
After suppressing his laughter, Yu Xi looked at Jian Yiling again. His expression became serious.
He had many questions that he wanted to ask her. However, he didnât know where to start.
For example, what exactly had happened between her and Master Sheng three years ago?
And why did Master Sheng leave Hengyuan City immediately? Why did he leave right after rescuing her?
And why did he stay in the capital for the past three years? He hadnât left the city a single time ever since then.
Jian Yiling had also left the country. As a result, Jian Yiling and Zhai Yunsheng had completely broken off contact with one another.
Yu Xi would not believe Jian Yiling if she said that nothing had happened between them.
However, what could have happened? Yu Xi could not think of a situation that could have caused this.
After pausing for a while, Yu Xi still did not ask about what happened three years ago. He didnât know how to phrase his question. Instead, he asked Jian Yiling a question that he thought was related to her age:
âGod Ling, have you dated anyone in the past few years?â
Jian Yiling was silent for a moment.
Jian Yilingâs silence made Yu Xi immediately assume things: âWait, no way! Did you find a foreign boyfriend?! I guess itâs normal for an eighteen-year-old girl to date someone... However, you canât just let someone from another country steal you away!â
âI havenât,â Jian Yiling replied.
Her brother said that she couldnât date until she was twenty.
âWait... Does that mean you havenât dated anyone? Or does that mean you donât have a foreign boyfriend?â
âHavenât for both questions.â
âWell, you should hurry up and date someone when youâre in the capital! Donât waste your youth! You can take a look at the guys in Beijing! Theyâre much better than the ones from overseas!â
Then, Yu Xi commented: âHmmm, Master Sheng hasnât dated anyone either. However, I havenât seen him much in the past few years. To be honest, if he did start to date someone, I wouldnât know about it either.â
After Zhai Yunsheng started to work on the Zhai family business, Yu Xi had very few opportunities to meet him.
Yu Xi remembered that the last time he had seen Master Sheng was around two months ago.
âMhmm.â
When Jian Yiling heard Yu Xi mentioned Zhai Yunsheng, she merely responded calmly.
âOhh, letâs not stand around anymore. Letâs walk over to my car.â
And thus, Yu Xi walked with Jian Yiling to where he had parked the car.
After leaving the airport, Yu Xi asked Jian Yiling: âGod Ling, have you found a place to live yet? If you havenât found one, Iâll find a place for you.â
âI found a place already.â
âOhh, thatâs good. Tell me the address, Iâll send you there.â
âTake me to the place where the Qin family is holding their banquet today.â
âGod Ling, what are you going there for?â Yu Xi asked curiously.
âI need to talk to Qin Chuan about something,â Jian Yiling replied.
She didnât specify what she was going to talk about.
However, when Yu Xi heard this, he vaguely felt that it seemed as though God Ling was quite familiar with Qin Chuan.
Could it be that God Ling and Qin Chuan had been contacting each other during the past few years?
âGod Ling, have you been in contact with Qin Chuan in the past three years?â
âMhmm,â Jian Yiling replied. She didnât deny Yu Xiâs assumption.
