Chapter 1195: Walking on Thin Ice
Lin Yuqing nodded and smiled, "Yes, don't worry, I'll take good care of myself and my family. Ah, I really envy you, you can go home now. I don't even know when I'll be able to go back."
Patting Lin Yuqing on the shoulder with hearty words, Yu Wei said, "It should be soon, right? With Xiao Mingyang's style of doing things, since he was able to subdue the Xiao family so quickly, returning to the country will be a piece of cake, won't it? Even if it's slow, we'll definitely meet at Qingtian's wedding. It'll be very soon!"
After she finished speaking, the announcements for the flights began. Yu Wei smiled and waved to Lin Yuqing, then picked up her luggage, turned around, and walked gracefully into the waiting room.
Lin Yuqing sighed softly, her heart filled with emotion. This best friend had been with her through the most difficult years and had long since become an indispensable person in her life. She truly hoped that her friend could be happy, forever happy.
Lin Yuqing pursed her lips and sighed, "Yu Wei is such a carefree person. Being with her is always so joyful, isn't it?"
“That’s right, our Weiwei is the most outstanding person in the world, so I must protect her well and not let others covet her.”
Behind Lin Yuqing, a person dressed in black and wearing a black hat appeared out of nowhere. When she looked up slightly, it turned out to be Mark.
Lin Yuqing didn't want to tell Mark about Yu Wei, but then she thought that even if she didn't tell him, this guy would still find a way to get information about Yu Wei, so she might as well tell him herself to save him from making a huge fuss.
Mark snapped his fingers triumphantly, looked at Lin Yuqing with eyes full of gratitude, and said, "Thanks to your help this time, I'll remember it. When Weiwei and I get married, I'll definitely thank you properly!"
This Mark is really confident in himself! Doesn't he know that China is Yu Wei's territory? Winning over a beautiful woman's heart on her own turf is a very challenging task. Moreover, Yu Wei's close relatives and friends are there, making it a huge test for everyone. Hopefully, we'll get good news from Mark!
……
After her friends left, Lin Yuqing felt empty inside. Fortunately, she still had Xuan'er and Zhenzhen by her side. She was busy taking care of the two children every day, and her days were quite fulfilling.
Although Xiao Jincheng is no longer involved in the company's affairs, as the saying goes, even a centipede with a hundred legs will not fall down. Even if he has lost power now, there will still be people who use his name to try to take a share of the Xiao family's profits.
Even though these guys wouldn't shake the foundation of the Xiao family, Xiao Mingyang lacked the patience to deal with them and handed the matter over to his subordinates. However, to Xiao Mingyang's surprise, the other party was also a ruthless character, striking quickly and viciously, leaving A-Jiu completely defenseless. Left with no other option, Xiao Mingyang had to personally intervene this time.
Xiao Mingyang had suspected that Xiao Jincheng was behind this incident, but judging from the other party's style of doing things, it didn't seem like Xiao Jincheng's style, so he couldn't help but have other ideas.
That day, Lin Yuqing suddenly received a call from an unknown number. Looking at the number, it showed that it was an international long-distance call, which made Lin Yuqing suspicious.
Upon answering the phone, Lin Yuqing politely said, "Hello."
"Hello, are you Ms. Lin Yuqing?"
"Oh, that's me."
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, then someone said, "Um, this is Donna, Mark's friend. I wonder if you remember me?"
Upon hearing the name, Lin Yuqing was stunned. After a long while, she smiled and said, "How could I not remember? How have you been lately?"
Holding the phone tightly, Donna was a little nervous. Her sweet voice was shrouded in a layer of sorrow as she slowly said, "I... am not doing well, because... I haven't seen Zhang Kaifeng in a long time. He doesn't answer my calls. I don't know if he's encountered any trouble."
Lin Yuqing was surprised that Donna would call her to ask about Zhang Kaifeng. She felt it was abrupt, but didn't know what to say, so she smiled and said, "I haven't been in contact with Kaifeng recently, so I don't know much. Here's what I'll do: I'll give you his assistant's phone number. You can try contacting Andy; he should know about Kaifeng. Don't worry, Kaifeng must have been neglecting you because of work. He's just a workaholic."
A trace of blood returned to Donna's pale face, as if she had been reassured. She was truly afraid that Zhang Kaifeng would grow tired of her or stop liking her; if that happened, she would be devastated.
Now that she had heard Lin Yuqing's explanation, she felt much more at ease and decided to follow Lin Yuqing's instructions and talk to Zhang Kaifeng's assistant.
On the other end of the phone, Lin Yuqing felt a deep sense of loss, wondering what Zhang Kaifeng was thinking. He had been so attentive to her before, but then he disappeared without a trace. Wasn't that just toying with her feelings? The Zhang Kaifeng she knew wasn't that kind of person. She just hoped that he was genuinely busy and had neglected Tang Na.
"Yuqing, may I call you that?"
Donna's voice brought Lin Yuqing back to her senses, and she quickly smiled and said, "Of course you can. You're Mark's friend, so you're my friend too."
Hearing Yuqing's gentle voice, Donna's heart didn't relax; instead, it clenched tightly. She asked, "You... are you very close to Kaifeng?"
Donna's voice made Lin Yuqing feel embarrassed. She said, "It's... alright. Why would you ask that?"
"Because I once accidentally saw Kaifeng's phone, and your contact information was in the family group." After saying this, even Donna felt a little awkward and quickly explained, "Um, please don't misunderstand, I'm not suspecting anything, I'm just... envious of you."
"Envy me?"
"Ah."
At this moment, Donna was smiling, but her smile was filled with bitterness and helplessness. She never imagined that one day she would fall in love with someone so disregarding everything else, only hoping to become the only one in his heart.
Even such a simple wish was out of reach for Donna.
Donna gave a wry smile and said, "Although Kaifeng is very good to me, I know he's not really happy. At least for now, I haven't really gotten into his heart yet."
"But you're different. Last time we ate together, I noticed his smile for you was genuine. And I can't do something so simple. Don't you think I should envy you?"
Donna's words left Lin Yuqing feeling somewhat flustered, as if she were the third party who had ruined their relationship. Even though Donna didn't explicitly accuse Lin Yuqing, she still felt like a sinner in Donna's eyes.
Holding the phone tightly, Lin Yuqing took a deep breath, then smiled and comforted him, "Kaifeng is a very reserved person; he doesn't fall in love easily. Look, he treats you very specially, isn't that a good start? I think you two are a perfect match, and you will definitely move Kaifeng and find your own happiness!"
