Lu Xining should have been happy after talking to Jin Shaoheng and getting his acquiescence.
But when I was lying on the bed, my mind was very confused. So even though the house was quiet, I didn't feel sleepy until I closed my eyes at dawn.
When I got up the next day, it was almost noon.
Lin Zhiyi went to the studio, and the breakfast left for her on the table was also cold.
Lu Xining took a few bites and then thought of the car parked downstairs last night.
I quickly walked to the balcony and looked down. The car was no longer there.
Yes, it's been so long, what fool would stay there all the time?
I was thinking this in my heart, but for some reason I felt an indescribable feeling in my heart, as if I was a little empty.
Lu Xining stood there for a long time before gathering his mood and going out.
The Sawyer Building is about to collapse, occupying the pages of various news platforms for a full week, comparable to the Jin Group after Jin Shaoheng's accident.
The difference is that Jin Shaoheng was "dead" at that time, and the judicial department did not investigate any illegal and disciplinary business operations.
Sawyer is different. Although there is no evidence of how it cannibalized the Jin family back then. But since someone was planning it behind the scenes, there will be traces of all accountability.
As time goes by, although the popularity has dropped a bit, there are still reports about it every day until the dust settles.
Lu Xining didn't understand things in the business world, but in her heart at this time, Gu Yuzhi was still the person who had grown up with her, protected and loved her.
As his friend, Lu Xining couldn't help but worry, so after the situation got better, she still used her connections to meet Gu Yuzhi.
Although he looked a little thinner, he was still in good spirits. Especially when he saw that the person coming was Lu Xining, his eyes lit up.
"I didn't expect you to come see me."
Lu Xining laughed and teased: "What is our relationship? Why didn't you think of it?"
Yes, what is their relationship?
For Lu Xining now, she doesn't have a lover yet. To her, she should be someone who can rival Lu Yuzheng in this world.
Gu Yuzhi quickly adjusted his emotions, smiled at her, and said deliberately: "I feel the warmth and warmth of human kindness."
"Then you shouldn't doubt me." Lu Xining was dissatisfied.
They have been friends since childhood, and even if he had nothing, she would not deny him.
"I was wrong." Originally it was just a cover-up, so it was quicker to admit my mistake.
"That's pretty much it." Lu Xining was satisfied with his attitude and naturally wouldn't argue with him.
Gu Yuzhi looked at her seriously, just like before, and couldn't help but ask: "Jin Shaoheng didn't tell you about me?"
Lu Xining shook his head.
Gu Yuzhi was a little surprised.
However, looking at Lu Xining's clear look, he could vaguely understand Jin Shaoheng's thoughts.
It must be that she couldn't bear to destroy Lu Xining in front of her. She looked like she had never endured the hurt before.
If it were him, he probably wouldn't be willing to mention it, dragging her into endless sadness.
Speaking of which, it actually makes me feel better.
"Brother Yu, does the grudge between you two have anything to do with me?" Lu Xining asked.
"No, this is our business matter." He was willing to maintain this tacit understanding with Jin Shaoheng, so he remained tight-lipped.
"Oh." Lu Xining responded.
But her brows were still slightly furrowed, why did she think it wasn't that simple?
"How are you lately? Does your head hurt again? Have you eaten well?" Gu Yuzhi changed the subject.
But he was sincere in asking these caring questions, and he was always thinking about her in his heart.
"I'm not a child." Lu Xining smiled, but thinking about his situation, he stopped laughing and asked, "Are you okay?"
"Yeah." Gu Yuzhi nodded.
He was very satisfied when he received a word of concern from her.
"Don't worry, Father Gu and Mother Gu will definitely find a way." Lu Xining comforted.
"Well, don't worry." Gu Yuzhi looked at her, with emotions in his eyes that she couldn't understand.
Lu Xining was stared at by him and lowered his eyes uncomfortably.
Gu Yuzhi only belatedly realized that he had lost his composure, and pretended to be innocent and asked: "Have you...remembered anything recently?"
Lu Xining shook his head.
"Then let nature take its course, as it is now...it's good." Gu Yuzhi said.
Lu Xining nodded.
The visiting time is limited, she can't help with Sawyer's matter, and Gu Yuzhi won't let her interfere.
After coming out of the police station, Lu Xining went to the studio again.
Lin Zhiyi told her that there was a training recently, which lasted for three days and was held in a nearby ancient town.
It mainly talks about the planning and storage of ancient buildings. Of course, it includes some maintenance knowledge, which is relatively unpopular.
After all, not many of them had survived originally, and even fewer could afford to live there, but because they wanted to give face to the teacher, they still had to participate.
Now that Lu Xining was like this, Lin Zhiyi couldn't leave, so he had to send her.
Lu Xining didn't have any objections, so he packed up his things and set off in the car the next day.
Because this ancient town has developed tourism projects, both tourists and supporting facilities are quite complete, but it has a commercial atmosphere.
But this doesn't affect anything. There are all the entertainment items that should be there, and it doesn't affect things like relaxing.
When she was reporting at the hotel, she got her room card at the front desk and met a familiar girl who was also participating in this training.
Coincidentally, the two of them lived across the street, so just as Lu Xining packed his luggage and was about to take a rest, the doorbell rang.
"Lu Xining, are you hungry at noon? Let's go out for dinner together?" The girl stood at the door and invited her.
"Going out? Doesn't the hotel provide lunch?" Lu Xining was puzzled.
"That's so boring. Now that we're out, of course we have to go shopping more.
I saw there is a cruise ship, and I heard that the fish are all caught fresh, so I have long wanted to try it." The girl happily sold it to her.
Lu Xining was actually a little tired after sitting in the car for so long, and was hesitating whether to refuse.
The girl had already held her arm: "It's boring for me to be alone, so please be kind enough to accompany me." After that, he just pulled her out.
The town is not big, but there are crafts sellers everywhere, which makes it dazzling.
The two of them walked around while walking. The girl had made a guide beforehand, so she quickly found the place to take the boat.
While the girl was negotiating with the boatman, Lu Xining bought an oil-paper umbrella.
While I was looking at the small toys made of wood, I heard the girl shouting from behind: "Lu Xining! You can get on the boat."
"Okay." Lu Xining responded and turned around, but unexpectedly saw Jin Shaoheng.
Speaking of which, the two of them had never seen each other since that day.
At this time, he was wearing a suit and leather shoes, standing here out of place, with people around him, as if he was here to discuss business.
