Chapter 595: Chapter 595: Facilitation
The two embraced and kissed, a testant to their love.
Ye Shikai sighed in relief, thankful that he had locked the door when he arrived, lest anyone disrupt them…
Suddenly, a series of knocks on the office door. The two hastily parted, “Oh my God, such a mood killer,” Ye Shikai really wanted to give the door and the person behind it a kick to send them flying.
“Who is it?” Ye Shikai opened the door, and a pretty face ca into view, a woman he had never seen before.
“Is Miss Su here?” The woman outside slowly took off her sunglasses and gave Ye Shikai a slight smile, with a hint of indescribable coldness in her eyes.
“She’s inside,” Ye Shikai said annoyedly, opening the door wider to let the woman in. As they passed by each other, Ye Shikai suddenly felt a profound inner strength within the woman, indicating she was a cultivator.
Ye Shikai imdiately beca alert, especially since he didn’t recognize the woman. Should she be soone aiming to harm Su Qingyu, it would be troubleso. He called out to give Su Qingyu a heads-up and then stepped in front of her to block the woman.
“Miss Wang, sorry for not greeting you earlier,” Su Qingyu saw who it was and smiled, but couldn’t help feeling a shiver, as the guest was none other than Miss Wang from the Wang Family, Wang Qian.
“Miss Su, I ca without an invitation, I hope you don’t mind,” Wang Qian said with a faint smile, and seeing no hostility, Ye Shikai finally relaxed.
“You can step out for a bit; I have so matters to discuss,” Su Qingyu told Ye Shikai, her hands unconsciously pushing him away with a tone that carried a hint of guilt, which piqued Ye Shikai’s curiosity even more about why she seed so afraid of this woman.
“Alright then, call if you need anything,” Ye Shikai walked towards the door, his gaze slowly eting the woman’s, who just happened to look back, the corners of her mouth curling into a smile…
…………
What a strange woman, Ye Shikai sat at his desk, silently watching his computer, wondering most about the fearful expression of Su Qingyu.
“What are you thinking about?” At that mont, a sweet voice rang beside his ear, Ye Shikai turned around, and An Lan was smiling at him.
“Lan, it’s you,” Ye Shikai startled, quickly fetched a chair for An Lan.
“Seeing you like this, are you harboring any bad thoughts, feeling guilty?” An Lan teased with a cunning smile, gracefully sitting down.
“Lan, a woman was looking for Qingyu just now, do you know who she is?” Ye Shikai quickly brought up his doubts.
“I… I don’t know her,” An Lan’s response astonished Ye Shikai. She was Su Qingyu’s right-hand in the corporation; it was unlikely she wouldn’t know, he stared intently at An Lan, her eyes flickering, clearly lying. Why would she lie about a woman’s identity?
“I see, let’s leave it at that then,” Ye Shikai did not press further.
“Your task is to prepare well for the wedding, don’t disappoint Qingyu,” An Lan shifted the topic. Su Qingyu and Ye Shikai’s impending marriage had already spread throughout Yanjing’s business circles, and naturally, An Lan was aware.
“Lan, you…” Ye Shikai sighed deeply; this topic was probably the last thing either of them wanted to discuss. Ever since An Lan learned about his relationship with Su Qingyu, she had buried her deep affection, and aside from work, she scarcely appeared together with Ye Shikai and Su Qingyu, worried about causing trouble between them…
“What’s up, you’re about to get married, why the gloomy face, groom?” An Lan said with a laugh, a hint of tears in her voice.
“Please smile, at least let feel, my leave is the right choice,” An Lan continued, and Ye Shikai managed a forced, faint smile.
“Cheer up, I wish you and Qingyu happiness,” An Lan covered her face with her hand, she didn’t want Ye Shikai to see the tears welling up in her eyes.
“Lan, I need to use the restroom,” Ye Shikai said quietly, patted her shoulder gently, and left the company, leaving An Lan crying alone…
……………
A day later.
Ye Shikai glanced at the calendar; only half a month remained until his marriage to Su Qingyu, feeling a bit excited. However, he had an important matter to attend to before that.
Looking out at the airport runway, Ye Shikai felt suddenly weighed down, wanting to play so music to relax, but after only a few minutes, he took off his headphones, just couldn’t focus.
This was Yanjing Airport’s earliest flight to the European Royal Airport today, Ye Shikai’s only purpose for this trip was Ji Qian.
“Yo, Mr. Ye, it’s you again,” just as Ye Shikai settled into his seat, he heard a woman’s voice. Turning, it was Tang Yun.
“What a coincidence, I almost forgot you’re on this flight,” Ye Shikai slapped his forehead, then realized, “Also, since we’re pretty much friends, can you change how you address ? Mr. Ye makes uncomfortable.”
“Ha-ha, occupational habit,” Tang Yun held a bottle of red wine and a wine glass, carefully poured a glass, and handed it to Ye Shikai.
“Thanks,” Ye Shikai sipped slowly, the wine rich and returning sweetly, by his expert opinion, it wasn’t any less than a top-grade wine costing thousands. “What wine is this, it’s so good.”
“I don’t know, probably not very expensive,” Tang Yun smiled slightly, but her hand trembled fiercely.
“I see, let pour it myself then,” Ye Shikai took the red wine and poured another glass, drinking alone.
……………
“Hey, wake up, we’re almost there,” Ye Shikai’s heart sharply ached, and he suddenly opened his eyes, Tang Yun was whispering by his side.
“Oh, I fell asleep, I didn’t sleep well last night,” Ye Shikai chuckled awkwardly, quickly stood up.
“It’s okay, we have landed already, let help you with your luggage.”
“No need, I’m here to see a friend, I didn’t bring any luggage,” Ye Shikai shook his head slightly, hurriedly tidied up, and disembarked. He had already inford Ji Qian of his arrival in Europe beforehand; if nothing went wrong, soone should be waiting outside to pick him up now.
“Selena, why are you the one picking up?” Ye Shikai surveyed the crowd, spotting a woman in a leather outfit, it was Ji Qian’s confidant, Selena.
“Lord Moon God is resting in the palace, hence couldn’t co personally.”
