In the morning, Mother Dong was having breakfast with Dong Yujie.
Mother Dong wanted to ask Dong Yujie if she was going to look for Jiang Huaizhou today.
But she didn't dare to ask.
She was afraid that Dong Yujie would be upset.
She had finally come back, but she was still pressuring her.
Jiang Huaizhou was very filial.
However, if she had to choose between Jiang Huaizhou and Dong Yujie, then Dong Yujie's mother would definitely choose Dong Yujie.
So now, Mother Dong really wanted to ask, but she was holding it in.
She felt that her breakfast was no longer delicious.
Dong Yujie saw Mother Dong's conflicted face and knew what she was thinking.
She took the initiative and said, "Mom, I'll go look for Brother after breakfast."
"Really?" Mother Dong heard and heaved a sigh of relief.
Seeing Dong Yujie look over, Mother Dong explained awkwardly, "I'm not urging you to go look for him. I just feel that no matter what, it's better to solve it as soon as possible. No matter what, I can get rid of one of my worries."
"Yes, I think so too, so don't worry," Dong Yujie said.
Although Dong Yujie said so, her heart was still heavy.
When she lowered her head to eat the porridge, her smile fell. Her heart felt like it was being pressed by a big rock.
Even breathing was difficult. She couldn't muster up any energy.
After breakfast, Mother Dong looked at the time.
Although she didn't urge her, Mother Dong couldn't help but look at the time.
Dong Yujie packed up and said to Mother Dong, "Mom, I'm going to Brother's company."
"Why don't you wait a little longer? It's rush hour now. The subway is very crowded, and there's a lot of traffic if you take a taxi, "Mother Dong said.
Dong Yujie smiled.
She thought to herself that Mother Dong was the one who was anxious. Now, she was the one who was asking her to wait a little longer.
After thinking about it, Dong Yujie said, "Okay, then I'll leave at 9: 30."
"I haven't been in B City for more than a year. I've almost forgotten the customs here," Dong Yujie said.
Dong Yujie waited until 9: 30 before she went out again.
She didn't take a taxi. Instead, she chose to take the subway.
She arrived at Jiang Huaizhou's company.
Jiang Huaizhou's company was an office building in the famous central business district of B City.
Dong Yujie still remembered that there were some famous companies in the industry here.
The fact that Jiang Huaizhou was able to open his company here meant that he was doing well in his business.
Dong Yujie took a deep breath and entered the office building.
However, he was stopped by the security guards.
Because there were too many companies in the office building, people who entered and left had to register.
Dong Yujie signed her name on the registration form, and the security guard gave her a temporary access card.
Dong Yujie held the card and had to punch in to pass through the machine.
They took the elevator to the floor of Jiang Huaizhou's company.
After getting past the security guards, they still had to get past the front desk of the company.
Dong Yujie didn't feel as nervous as she had been through so many rounds.
He really had to thank these checkpoints.
Dong Yujie came to the front desk and said to the staff, "Hello, I'm here to look for Jiang Huaizhou."
The clerk said, "Do you have an appointment?"
"No." Dong Yujie felt that she had been too rash.
He should have called Jiang Huaizhou first.
It wasn't good to suddenly come to his company to look for him.
Dong Yujie sighed.
He had spent so much time in the ancient city in the south that he had become a fool in the ways of the world.
Dong Yujie later went to an ancient city, which was not a very popular tourist attraction.
Although there were many tourists, it wasn't as commercialized as Lijiang.
Other than the few months of the tourist season, the ancient city was very quiet and leisurely.
Even during the tourist season, there were no bars or other shops that disturbed the people.
There were either quiet coffee shops, restaurants, or local specialty shops.
Dong Yujie stayed in the ancient city and rented an inn for a long time.
The inn's short-term rent wasn't expensive, and the long-term rent was even more discounted.
In addition, Jiang Huaizhou transferred money to her regularly, so Dong Yujie really didn't have to worry about money.
In the ancient city, every day was leisurely.
When she woke up in the morning, she smelled the fragrance of flowers and soil.
The south was humid, and this fragrance was even stronger in the morning.
When she opened the window, she could see the wet stone road outside.
Opposite was a small breakfast shop, and it was already filled with smoke and fire.
Life in the ancient city was very peaceful, and the pace was very slow.
Everyone didn't seem to have high expectations for the quality of life.
Every day, after eating and drinking to their fill, they would sit at the door and chat. They were already very satisfied.
Most of the young people worked outside.
The young people who lived in the ancient city now were either from outside to do business, or like her, came to find peace.
The rest of them were all old people.
The old people's movements were slow, and they did everything slowly every day.
This made the young people also slow down.
Dong Yujie lived in such an environment every day. Without the pressure of work, she would go sightseeing nearby when she had nothing to do. It was very leisurely.
Perhaps, this was the life that many people yearned for.
But it was also because she had lived like this for too long that Dong Yujie was still not used to it when she came back.
She had even forgotten to give Jiang Huaizhou a call first.
"Sorry, I should have called first. I'll come back another day," Dong Yujie said and turned to walk out.
At this moment, a long-haired beauty walked over.
She was wearing high heels, and her heels made a "tap tap" sound on the ground.
This woman was dressed in branded clothes, and they were not cheap.
Although Dong Yujie hadn't been back for a year, she still had this bit of judgment.
Dong Yujie subconsciously slowed down her footsteps.
She didn't know why, but it was probably a premonition.
"Miss Qu." The female staff at the front desk was obviously no stranger to this person. The moment they met, she immediately called out her name.
Dong Yujie walked to the door and stopped.
She happened to hear Miss Qu ask, "Who is she?"
It was a soft voice, but Dong Yujie still heard it.
Dong Yujie thought that she was probably talking about her.
Because there was no one else at this moment.
The staff at the front desk said softly, "She's here to look for the boss, but she didn't make an appointment, so she didn't meet him. She said that she should have called first. I don't know if she's an acquaintance of the boss, but before I could ask, she left."
Qu Mengyu turned back and saw that Dong Yujie hadn't left, so she called out to her, "Wait a minute."
Dong Yujie turned around. "You called me?"
"Yes." Qu Mengyu walked over.
She was wearing high heels, while Dong Yujie was wearing a pair of ordinary white shoes.
The two of them were about the same height.
But because of the shoes, Dong Yujie was shorter than Qu Mengyu.
"What's the matter?" Dong Yujie looked at Qu Mengyu.
Subconsciously, she didn't like her very much.
Perhaps the intuition of these two women was especially accurate.
Qu Mengyu didn't like Dong Yujie at first sight.
Her nerves were tense, and she subconsciously treated Dong Yujie as an enemy.
Of course, perhaps Qu Mengyu treated all the good-looking women who might appear in front of Jiang Huaizhou as enemies.
