Chapter 628 Superstar Media Is Going to Plant Roses
Yan Nuo glared at Yan Yu as if he expected better from her.
Yan Yu glanced at him coldly.
This time, Yan Nuo was not afraid of her.
Yan Yu felt guilty and gave up.
Sha Zelong asked Yan Nuo and Ji Yinbing, “What about you?”
Ji Yinbing remained silent.
Yan Nuo said, “We won’t be working for the time being. We have to go to Switzerland to attend a friend’s wedding. Next, we’ll go back to China to celebrate the New Year there.”
Sha Zelong was about to invite Yan Nuo to their house for the New Year when he heard Yan Nuo say, “I have a close friend in Binjiang City. Let’s go to his house for the New Year.” He held Ji Yinbing’s hand and said to her, “Many years ago, I promised you that I would accompany you to China for the New Year.”
Ji Yinbing did not even remember this.
She thought about it and remembered that this was indeed the case.
Yan Nuo thought of something and said, “Yinbing’s mother is Chinese. She was sold to India. I want to bring her to China to see if I can find any news about her mother’s family.”
Hearing this, Ji Yinbing was a little moved.
Sha Zelong asked, “Does Miss Ji know about your mother’s family?”
“I don’t know.” Ji Yinbing thought that Sha Zelong was also a person of status in China. He definitely had his own connections. If she asked him to help find someone, it would definitely be twice the results with half the effort. She quickly said, “I only know that my mother’s name is Ji Yue. I don’t know her exact age. I reckon that if she’s still alive, she should be 55 this year. It might be more than that.”
When Sha Zelong heard this, he suddenly asked, “Ji Yue? Which city is she from?”
“I’m not sure about that.”
“I’ll get someone to check it later.”
What Sha Zelong did not tell Ji Yinbing was that among the people he knew, there was a family with the surname Ji. More than thirty years ago, their youngest daughter had gone missing. All these years, there had been no whereabouts. Until now, the parents of that family had already passed away, but the people of that family had still not given up on searching.
He had to go back and investigate. After he found out, he would tell Ji Yinbing.
If he said it now, it would be bad if he was happy for nothing. “Oh right, what does Miss Ji’s mother look like? It’s easier to find her with a photo.”
Ji Yinbing shook her head and said, “I don’t have a photo of my mother. However… my mother and I should look alike when we were young.” Her father was ugly and could not give birth to a daughter like her. Her beauty must have been inherited from her mother.
“Then I’ll pay more attention.”
While they chatted, Angus had already made dinner.
He did not make many dishes. There were red wine pheasant, garlic lily spicy prawns, milk carrot cake, and cheese-baked mashed potatoes…
Yan Nuo was relieved that Angus did not make beef or pork.
Unlike Yan Nuo, Yan Yu was a person who was not picky about food. Just like Ji Yinbing, she especially liked to eat beef. In the past, every time she went overseas on a mission, Yan Yu would order some beef dishes. She glanced at the dishes on the table and asked Angus, “Why aren’t there red wine stewed beef?”
Angus looked at Yan Nuo and said to Yan Yu, “I’ll make it for you next time.”
“Okay.”
The family sat together.
Angus sat at the top. He looked at his future son-in-law, then at his future daughter-in-law. Finally, his gaze landed on the empty table opposite him. Angus quickly raised his cup and said to them, “To everyone.”
Everyone raised their glasses and drank.
Yan Nuo tasted the red wine pheasant he made. It tasted quite good.
Yan Nuo was surprised. It seemed like his mother was not lying. Angus’s food was really delicious.
The four juniors gave Angus a lot of face and actually swept through all the dishes on the table. Angus looked at the empty plates and felt honored. After dinner, they moved to the living room for coffee. La Pu was about to pour Angus some water when he heard Angus say, “Coffee and me.”
Everyone was surprised. Angus paid special attention to his skincare. He did not drink coffee, beverages, and occasionally drank a little. He had to maintain his charming appearance with a lot of facial masks and expensive skincare products every day.
He actually took the initiative to ask for coffee.
Seeing that everyone was surprised, Angus shrugged and said, “I actually love coffee, especially black coffee with no sugar.”
La Pu changed him a cup of coffee.
When the cup of coffee was almost finished, Angus suddenly said, “I’ll leave tomorrow morning.” Yan Nuo and Yan Yu looked up at him with complicated expressions.
Angus added, “I won’t commit suicide.”
The two of them heaved a sigh of relief.
“I plan to move to Bulgaria,” Angus said. “I have a house there. I plan to grow roses there. You can come visit me there from now on.”
With that, Angus put down his coffee cup and got up to return to the fourth floor.
Ji Yinbing then asked Yan Nuo, “Why does he want to go to Bulgaria?”
Yan Nuo remained silent.
Yan Yu said, “That’s where he and my mother went on their honeymoon. My mother liked roses. That’s where the roses are grown.” Yan Yu pointed upstairs and said, “There’s a small house on the fourth floor. It’s filled with blue roses. Father drew them for my mother.”
There was no real blue rose in this world.
The market sold dyed blue roses. The other type was the genetically modified blue rose. Although it was beautiful, it was not a real blue rose. Its blue was a fresh blue that was close to the color of lotus root, unlike the enchanting blue that flower shops sold.
But their mother liked the beautiful flowers.
The next day, Angus left.
He didn’t take his expensive skincare products and facial masks, nor did he take his luxurious branded watches and clothes. He only carried a simple but practical backpack and wore sunglasses and a hat. He walked into the morning light and finally became one with the morning sun.
After he left, Yan Nuo brought Ji Yinbing to America. Yan Yu and Sha Zelong had to stay in India for a while and return to China at the end of December.
Ji Yinbing and Yan Nuo had just arrived in New York when they realized that the newspapers and magazines here were all reporting the news of Angus’s official retreat. This was both expected and unexpected.
Zhuang Long’s chauffeur came to the airport to pick them up personally.
On the way there, Ji Yinbing asked the driver, “Myerson, are An and the rest here?”
The driver, Maison, said, “We arrived yesterday. That Miss Wu vomited so much and has been resting for the past two days.”
“Yeah.”
When they arrived at the manor, they did not see anyone. The butler said that they were all at the back of the mountain. Ji Yinbing and Yan Nuo put down their luggage and went to the back of the mountain.
From afar, Yan Nuo saw Zhuang Long being pressed down and bullied by Fang Yusheng’s two children. Even though Fang Zicheng was calmer than ordinary children, he was still a child in the end. Seeing that his younger brother and godfather were having fun together, he remained reserved for more than ten minutes. In the end, he could not resist the temptation and joined their game.
Fang Yusheng, Qiao Jiusheng, and Wei Shuyi were playing golf.
Beauty Wu lay on the grass as if she was resting
