C10 Old acquaintances
"Miss Lena." Qin Xiangjie was like an old acquaintance of Lina. He walked over to her side with a warm smile. His elegant demeanor attracted the attention of many female guests. They all looked at her with envy.
Although there was a slight difference in aesthetic standards between the Eastern and Western people, a beautiful man like Qin Xiangjie could only be described as stunning in the eyes of others. Of course, he could give people this feeling not because he had perfect facial features. No one had perfect facial features, but because of his inner and outer temperament. It was a kind of man's unique sense of autonomy, yet this domineering feeling made women feel safe and enthralled.
However, Lina didn't notice this at all. She only felt that Qin Xiangjie was a demon who knew how to laugh. If she wasn't careful, she would be eaten to the point where not even her bones would remain.
"Mister Qin Xiangjie." Lina tried to calm herself down, to calm her mind. She didn't want to make any mistakes in front of this smart man.
"Before I came here, I thought that I would meet you here. I didn't expect that it would really be as I wished." "Miss Lina, I don't mean any harm. You aren't trying to avoid me, are you?"
"Dodge you?" "I'm not going to get involved with you and Seven anymore. Do you think I need to get away from you?" Her face didn't turn red, but she was still quite confident. That was because she made it clear that she wasn't going to follow him.
Although she didn't know the man's personality well, she believed from the woman's sixth sense that he wouldn't leave her unless the man recovered his memory.
"Are you sure you don't care?" Qin Xiangjie looked at her with a half-smile. He remembered Lina's words very clearly!
"That's right. If you have the ability to take Seven away, then take him with you. I'm just his employer anyway, so it's better if you don't involve me in your matters." "I'm sorry, but my friend is here. Excuse me." After he finished, he carried the champagne and walked out of Qin Xiangjie's line of sight.
Qin Xiangjie smiled. He didn't know whether to be happy or helpless. Did it have nothing to do with you? He can't do anything if he thinks it has nothing to do with you?
Qin Xiangjie had not expected to see Qin Haoran outside the banquet hall. He only saw him in a suit and knew that he was here as Lina's male companion. The two brothers didn't really like this kind of situation, but since they were in the martial arts world, they had no choice but to participate even if they didn't like it.
Speaking of which, although Qin Haoran wasn't as lucky as Qin Xiangjie, there were quite a few similarities. For example, they all had a determination that ordinary people didn't have.
Qin Haoran felt the gaze behind him. He turned around and saw the strange smile on Qin Xiangjie's face. He frowned slightly but didn't say anything. Instead, he turned his head and continued to hold onto the fence as he stared at the sky.
Qin Xiangjie was not surprised by Qin Haoran's reaction. Even if he lost his memory, it was still because the arrogance in his bones had not diminished in the slightest. If he did not choose to ignore him at such a time, Qin Xiangjie would be surprised.
"Yao Ke Meng will be flying in the afternoon tomorrow. She'll be in M City." Qin Xiangjie was indifferent to Qin Haoran's attitude. He stood beside him in the same posture as he did and said what he wanted to say.
That scene was so harmonious that it caused people to feel uncomfortable. Perhaps, right now, they were just insignificant people to each other. Although Qin Xiangjie was willing to do his best to bring Qin Haoran away for Xiao Meng, his attitude had always been the same. He wanted to let Xiao Meng know that it wasn't necessarily a bad thing.
Qin Haoran didn't expect to hear such words. A momentary look of astonishment flashed across his face, but he soon returned to his usual icy state, not saying a word.
Didn't that woman say she was six months pregnant? Why would they rush here so quickly? Or … All of this was just a scheme that she and Qin Xiangjie had put up for him. Or was she trying to show him face before going to bed and sleep with this man called Qin Xiangjie? He did not know why there was such a thought in his mind, but such a thought would cause him to lose his previous calmness in an instant.
Qin Haoran secretly rejoiced, thinking that it was good that he was still able to determine that he had lost his cool.
Although the light was not very good, the details on his face did not escape Qin Xiangjie's eyes. He looked at him noncommittally and smiled, "What are you not going to say?"
Qin Haoran looked at his nonchalant look, and a nonchalant look appeared on his face, "What do you think I should say? The person you are talking about right now is just a stranger in my heart. Facing the actions of a stranger, what do you think you would be able to say? "
When he said this, his heart would be inexplicably blocked. It was as if something had suddenly suppressed him, causing him to be unable to say anything. Thus, he deliberately shifted his gaze away. Qin Haoran wasn't an idiot, he knew that this Yao Komeng definitely wasn't someone that didn't matter to him. Otherwise, he wouldn't be at a loss every time he faced something related to her, but right now, he really didn't want to pursue the past anymore. It was as if there was some unknown force dragging him down, causing him to not dare to look back.
In fact, this was merely Qin Haoran's subconscious mind playing tricks on her. Ever since she was together with him, she had been facing such a dangerous situation, and it was because his appearance had been ruined by Mrs. Black. If the former Qin Haoran was able to face all of the harm she had done to her, he would have confidently promised to make her happy, but now, not only was his memory a mess, it was also incomplete.
Thus, Yao Kexin became someone he didn't dare to face. It even made him subconsciously believe that if it wasn't for him, she would be much better off. Perhaps, she would never meet a cruise ship explosion again.
It was just that Qin Haoran didn't know about all of this. The only thing he was sure of was that he was against the name Yao Ke Meng and Qin Xiangjie!
Qin Xiangjie wasn't surprised in the slightest when he heard him say this, so his smile didn't even change as he nodded lightly, "You're right, I have a relationship with Yao Ke-meng that I shouldn't have. Before you and she got married, I was also chasing after her at the same time, and I thought that my leaving would make her happy, but I never thought that something like this would happen. Since you're like this, I hope you can tell Little Meng everything you said to me. With that, he turned and entered the banquet hall, not bothering about the expression on Qin Haoran's face.
It had been a long time since he felt this relaxed. After he let go of Yao Kexin, he once again began to look straight at his feelings for her. He couldn't deny Yao Ke Meng's place in his heart. Even though he couldn't say what was good about her, he still couldn't let her go. Thus, what he wished the most was for Qin Hao to withdraw and give him an honorable reason to take care of her. Even if she was already the mother of two children, he could still take care of her without any qualms.
He was not a great believer. He wanted to prove the greatness of love, but he knew better than anyone what he wanted the most.
Qin Haoran didn't expect Qin Xiangjie to be so happy this time. As Qin Xiangjie left, he felt that the giant rock in his chest had suddenly fallen on his heart and smashed it into a bloody mess. He didn't know why he was in such pain. He took a deep breath to ease the discomfort in his heart, then turned and walked into the banquet hall.
He wasn't looking for Qin Xiangjie to say anything. He was just looking for some alcohol to make himself less paralyzed.
In the banquet hall, Lina looked at Qin Xiangjie and Qin Haoran walking in from the balcony. She felt a little upset. She didn't know what kind of conversation they had. She only knew that she wanted to keep Qin Haoran by her side, but she didn't know if she had the ability or not!
Lina took a deep breath and walked over to Qin Haoran. "Seven, dance with me."
Qin Haoran was stunned for a moment before a polite smile appeared on his face, "Okay."
He knew that he had decided to give up on trying to persuade Qin Haoran, but he didn't know if he would change his mind after seeing Yao Ke-meng, because he was very clear that if anyone in this world could change his mind, then that person would definitely be Yao Ke-meng.
It seemed like a man like Qin Xiangjie shouldn't be held back by a woman. However, things like love were hard to judge and understand with rational thought. People would become abnormal in front of such a strange emotion.
After he was sure he was in love with Yao, he admitted that he was abnormal, and acquiesced in his abnormal behavior. And now, he wanted to use his emotions to pay for Yao Kexin. Therefore, even though he had given up on Qin Haoran, he didn't tell his men to give up on the investigation of the Heather family. He didn't want to give up on any opportunity to gain the upper hand.
The next day, the Qin family's private jet arrived at City M's international airport on time. Qin Xiangjie was waiting for him at the airport thirty minutes in advance. Right now, he was also very nervous. The moment he saw the plane land, an indescribable feeling welled up in his heart. Yao Kexin was now a pregnant woman with a full body. Without mentioning the fatigue from the journey, could she really face Qin Haoran's current callousness?
