'Yiran, I'll never let you go again...'
The kiss lasted an unknown amount of time.
"Yiran, love me like this forever…" His hoarse voice was full of longing.
'Love me... till the end of time... Forever and always...'
...
Zhuo Qianyun waited anxiously for the results of Ling Yiran's investigation. However, they could not find anything on Xia Xi after several days even though they had looked into Yan Qiongying's acquaintances and the places she frequently visited.
Yan Qiongying was careful not to leave behind any clues because she knew it was only hope of getting out.
"Sis Zhuo, I'll continue looking into it. If I still can’t find anything, I'll think of another way. Don't panic," said Ling Yiran.
"Okay, thank you," answered Zhuo Qianyun. Once they ended the call, she smiled bitterly.
How could she not be anxious?
However, Yiran was already doing so much for her. She could only wait.
"Well? Did they find anything?" asked Mrs. Zhuo.
Zhuo Qianyun shook her head. "It's hard to find anything at the moment. And this investigation requires time.”
Mrs. Zhuo sighed.
Zhuo Qianyun hesitated for a moment before seemingly making up her mind. She said, "Mom, I want to go to L City."
Zhuo Qianyun said, "It's not impossible, but... I'm scared to bet on that possibility, Mom. Anyway, the only thing I can do now is talk to Ye Wenming."
"But... didn't you just separate from him? Will he... say yes?" Mrs. Zhuo was deeply worried.
Zhuo Qianyun was silent. She knew better than anyone how harsh and ruthless she was to Ye Wenming the day they separated. She thought she would not have anything to do with Ye Wenming anymore, but reality gave her a good slap in the face.
"I don't know, but I should try, shouldn't I?" She smiled bitterly and said, "But if I'm going to L City, you'll have to take care of the store and Lil Yan yourself.”
"I'll be fine, but I’m worried about you going to L City while pregnant"
"I'll be alright. I'm not even five months pregnant yet, so I don't have trouble moving around. And I'll be taking the high-speed train. There's staff on the high-speed train. They'll take care of me if anything happens," said Zhuo Qianyun.
Mrs. Zhuo sighed and said nothing more. She knew her daughter would insist on taking a trip to L City.
