"Isn't a woman like me very scary?"
After the crisp sound of the door closing, Ling Han was the only one left in the car. Beside his feet was a stack of documents thrown by Ye Huanyan. They were scattered all over the car.
Ling Han frowned. If it was really as she said, that she had experienced her husband cheating on her, perishing together with her husband, being burned in a fire, and having plastic surgery to restore her appearance, then his actions today were no different from exposing her past, or even exposing her scars.
She had already given him face by slamming the door and leaving.
But why didn't he believe this woman in his heart?
After that day, Ling Han was busy investigating Gu Huanyan's background, while Ye Huanyan was busy filming. They didn't meet each other, but they competed with each other.
In the president's office of the Pleasure Group, Secretary Dong sent a thick stack of documents to Ling Han's desk. "Gu Huanyan's ex-husband has been found. His family background is quite good, but he died in a fire five years ago. This is a photo."
The man in the photo was very good-looking, about 26 or 27 years old. He wore a pair of glasses and looked very gentle.
"What about the cause of the fire? Have you investigated? "
"It was an accident. A gas explosion. The maid at home was also involved."
"How old is the maid?"
"In her early twenties, Chinese. She is quite pretty. Her photo is also inside."
"What happened after that?"
"After that, Gu Huanyan underwent more than a hundred plastic surgery operations. According to the information given by the hospital in Florida, Gu Huanyan was indeed sent to their hospital five years ago. At that time, there were large areas of burns on her body. This year was her last operation."
Hearing this, Ling Han frowned. Everything was as Gu Huanyan said.
However, even though this background was flawless, there was something that made him feel that something was wrong, but he couldn't put his finger on it. It was as if there were some fragments that were intermittently connected in his mind.
"President Ling, you have investigated President Gu so carefully. Do you have any plans for Haiyan Media?"
Xiao Dong's voice pulled him back from his thoughts.
He was stunned for a few seconds. "What did you say?"
"Do you have any plans for Haiyan Media?"
Hearing this, Ling Han waved his hand. "You can leave. I want to be alone for a while."
Late at night, the film crew of Lanjiang University Town wrapped up for the night. Ye Huanyan drove to Fengshang alone to pick up Naonnao.
Because of the start of filming for "Remaining Life," she had no choice but to leave Naonnao in the care of Ji Xiaoyue.
When she arrived at Fengshang, she had just gotten out of the car when she received a call from Gu Sinian. She pressed the answer button and leaned against the car door to answer the call. "Brother."
"Yan Yan, I've done what you asked me to do. I've also sent the information that Ling Han wanted. He should have finished reading it by now."
"Thanks, brother."
"Why are you being so polite with me? It's just that it's not up to us whether he believes it or not."
"There are no flaws. Even if he suspects something, he can't do anything."
"Since you've decided to return to his side, why go through so much trouble to create a fake identity?"
"Don't you want me to punish him?"
The voice on the other end of the phone drawled, "Is that so? Are you punishing him, or do you not want him to know how much you've suffered all these years? Are you afraid that he'll blame himself? It's fine to lie to others, but do you think I can't tell? "
"Brother …"
"Yan Yan …" A sweet voice came from behind, interrupting Ye Huanyan's attempt to act coquettishly with the person on the other end of the phone. She was startled by the force on her shoulder.
She turned around and was stunned. "Xiao Yue."
Ji Xiaoyue stood in front of her. She wore a white shirt with a large white bow on the chest and a long black mermaid skirt that revealed half of her calves. She wore 12-centimeter high heels on her feet, making her look tall and imposing. However, her smile was a little too sweet. "I saw your car upstairs, but you didn't come up for a long time. Who were you calling?"
Ye Huanyan's expression froze. "What's with that expression?" Ji Xiaoyue looked confused.
Gu Sinian's stiff voice came from beside her ear. "Why don't I hang up first?"
Ye Huanyan's eyes flashed when she heard this. She suddenly put on a sly expression and covered the receiver of the phone. She whispered to Ji Xiaoyue, "It's my mother."
"Master Wen?" Ji Xiaoyue's eyes lit up and she shrieked, "Can I speak to Master Wen for a while? No, just one sentence will do! "
Ji Xiaoyue had admired Wen Yi for a long time. The Wen family was a well-known family of Chinese jewelry designers in Northern Europe. Wen Yi was the only successor of the Wen family's jewelry design skills. Many of her works were treasured in the Museum of Treasures and the few that were sold were sold at sky-high prices.
Ye Huanyan coughed twice. "Erm … are you sure?"
"Of course I'm sure."
"Alright then." Ye Huanyan took a deep breath and let go of the receiver.
"Xiao Yue wants to speak to you."
After the person on the other end of the line responded, Ye Huanyan handed the phone to Ji Xiaoyue. She picked up the phone without saying anything. "Auntie, I'm Xiao Yue, Yan Yan's best friend. Did you know that I admire all of your works very much? Especially the 'Love of the Stars' set that you won at the 12th Annual Jewelry Awards. I've always wanted to get to know you …"
"Xiao Yue, it's me."
The deep voice on the other end of the line drowned out Ji Xiaoyue's monologue. Those four simple words caused her mind to go blank.
She didn't know when, but she was the only one left in front of the Fengshang building. Her back was to a car, and Ye Huanyan was nowhere to be found. People were coming and going on the road in the distance, but she could only hear those four words.
"Xiao Yue, it's me."
After a long time, her voice sounded in front of the spacious building. "I'm sorry, I got the wrong person."
After the call ended, she gripped the phone tighter in her hand. Only she knew that the moment she heard his voice, thousands of answers flashed through her mind crazily. But none of them were the words she had just heard. "It's you."
"Long time no see. How have you been?"
"Yes, I'm Xiao Yue."
"It's been five years. Why didn't you contact me?"
"Gu Sinian, you bastard."
In the Chief Editor of Fengshang's office, the little boy was sleeping soundly on the small bed in the cubicle. Ye Huanyan covered him with the quilt that had been kicked away. Well, he was young and mature. After all, he was still a child.
The door opened outside the cubicle. Ji Xiaoyue was sitting behind the desk with her eyes lowered. She looked very depressed.
"Xiao Yue …" Ye Huanyan closed the cubicle door and walked into her office. He looked embarrassed. "What's wrong?"
"Your phone." She glanced at the desk sadly. "That … I think … my brother has you in his heart. It's just that there are some things that he needs to deal with himself."
"Forget it. Don't mention him."
"I'm sorry."
Ye Huanyan suddenly regretted taking the initiative to let Ji Xiaoyue answer Gu Sinian's call when she was completely unprepared. After Gu Sinian disappeared from the face of the earth five years ago, no matter what channels Ji Xiaoyue used to try to find him, he always avoided her. The most recent time was at her birthday party two years ago. As the Chief Editor of Fengshang, Ji Xiaoyue attended the opening dance. After the opening dance, Ye Huanyan wore a mask and watched Ji Xiaoyue search the entire hall. Gu Sinian's figure was drowned in the crowd.
