“Sorry, the person I’m picking up has arrived. I’ll have to go. You guys are really cute. See you again if fate allows!”
Long Ting said his farewell to the women and walked towards Li An’an. Li An’an glared at him. “Why are you following me?”
Seeing that she had seen through him, Long Ting came clean. “I saw you talking on the phone sneakily and was worried about what you were up to again, so I followed you here to take a look.”
Long Ting had a feeling that Li An’an had more secrets than what they knew. He had been reading detective novels since he was young and loved to unearth secrets. Of course, the entertainment industry was above secrets. Secrets generated much discussions and stirred everyone’s interest.
Li An’an was furious. “Now that you’ve taken a look, will you please leave? Do you know that you look like a stalker right now!”
Long Ting threw a flirtatious glance into the distance, smiling as he watched those women going crazy over him. “Do you think that there are stalkers that look this handsome?”
“You’re crazy!” Li An’an cursed under her breath. She was glad that she hadn’t asked Fu Yiheng to pick her up. Otherwise, who knew what would happen.
“Li An’an, do you want to come and work in my company?” Long Ting revealed the main purpose of his visit. The idea had struck him the moment he set eyes on Li An’an. But at the time, she had refused.
Eventually, she had secretly participated in the beauty pageant, which displeased him a great deal. He had offered to give her a leg up and yet she had refused.
Long Ting was annoyed. “Then what’s your purpose in participating in the beauty pageant? It can’t be for the prize money, right?” He clicked his tongue and looked at her. She really looked like she loved money as much as her life. However, her money would have been completely scammed away by his cousin! How tragic!
“Do you have so much free time on hand? Should I let your cousin know and suggest that he increases your workload?” Li An’an took out her cell phone to make the call. “Although he’s in a meeting now, I’m sure he’ll take my call!” Long Ting quickly ran towards the entrance of the mall. “Fine, you win!” He had been a slave for a few days and definitely did not want to be captured again.
Seeing that Long Ting had left, Li An’an hailed a cab and hurried over to the Jinhua Building.
Fu Yiheng was waiting for her at the elevator. It had been more than a month since they last met, but he was still the same. He was neither fat nor thin, a handsome face and a gentle smile. However, Li An’an noticed at once that he was dressed in a suit, unlike his usual casual get up. Inexplicably, it suited him better, as if he was meant to dress like this right from the onset.
“Is that you?” She noticed the watch on his wrist. She had seen Chu Yichen wearing one of these. It was the same brand, but a different model. This brand was targeted at a high-end crowd. The lowest price was a million yuan.
“Do you have anything to tell me?” Li An’an couldn’t tell what she was feeling. She had a feeling that she might find out the unknown side of Fu Yiheng today.
Fu Yiheng teased her. “Can’t you be a little more stupid? You’ll find out when you get home!”
He took the shopping bags from her.
“I’ve been stupid for five years, okay?” Li An’an now understood what she could never figure out before… why he’d always manage to solve her problems. Previously, she had thought that he would go around begging for help, but it turned out that he had the means.
“Why do you want to stick by me?” This was the one thing that mystified her still. At the time, she was in dire straits. Everyone avoided her, but he was willing to help her.
Fu Yiheng’s expression turned serious. “Do you remember when they held a big fireworks party in the city that year? It was a crazy night. You helped someone. Do you remember?”
Li An’an’s thoughts gradually drifted away. About seven or eight years ago, the city organized a large-scale fireworks party in Jiangbei. It was very lively, and she was at the event.
“It was you! The brawl?” She remembered seeing a group of young people fighting on the street. They were just hitting people randomly without distinguishing between friend and foe. After that, someone shouted that the police had arrived and everyone dispersed.
She was about to leave as well, when something suddenly tugged at her skirt hem.
A young man with a bloody face stared at her sharply. “Help me into the small alley across the street. I don’t wish to be caught!” He held on to her skit tightly, and she had no choice but to support him towards the small alley with whatever strength she had, so that he could hide from the crowd. She was scared to death.. She didn’t wish to get arrested by the police either!
