After hearing this, Qiao Ruyi cried even harder.

When she saw him for the first time last night and saw his clear and calm eyes, she really panicked.

She was also afraid that she had recognized the wrong person and that it wasn't Ling Che.

She was even more afraid that Ling Che, who was her, didn't remember her.

At that moment, she thought of many bad outcomes.

When she shouted his name with all her might and saw his figure pause, her heart was in a knot.

Yes and no.

Remember, or not remember.

These thoughts kept swirling in her mind.

Unexpectedly, he just called him to make himself speak.

She was really scared at that time.

Qiao Ruyi glared at Warren with red eyes. "Was it your idea to have me come to the US on a business trip? Are you trying to use this to negotiate a partnership with me?"

"No, no, no, this is a misunderstanding."

Warren immediately explained, "It's all because Che hid his beautiful wife so well. I always heard him talk about how beautiful and outstanding you were, but I didn't get to see you when I went to China before. Che has been away for the past few years, and you've managed LS Group so well. I admire you so much, and I wanted to take this opportunity to talk to you, which is why this problem arose."

After saying that, he gave Qiao Ruyi a thumbs-up, "She's really courageous. She's a very strong woman that I admire."

"Of course, there's another big reason," Warren said quickly with a smile. "I want you to take him away as soon as possible. He's completely broke. He eats, drinks, and lives on my money. My medical team has been taking care of him for three years, and he doesn't have a penny!"

"That's not the most important thing," Warren said, looking at Ling Che's handsome face with a resentful tone. "The most important thing is that when he was lying down, my wives all found excuses to take turns visiting him. Now that he's standing up and able to move around, it's even worse. My wives praise him for being handsome in front of me every day. I can't live like this anymore. If he doesn't leave, my family will be in turmoil."

Hearing this, Hani covered his mouth and laughed.

It was not as exaggerated as he said. They just looked at this handsome Chinese man a few more times.

After all, good-looking men are so eye-catching, and which woman doesn't want to take a few more glances at them?

"Speaking of which," Warren looked at Qiao Ruyi and joked, "Miss Qiao, based on the money and effort I've spent on him over the past three years, is it worth it for LS Group to give us an extra point?"

He thought the other party would agree without hesitation, but he didn't expect the woman in front of him to stand up in front of him and bow deeply to him and his wife.

"Mr. Warren, no matter what, I am very grateful to you and your wife for rescuing my lover."

Qiao Ruyi's tears fell, and she said sincerely, "This favor cannot be repaid with commercial interests."

Seeing her like this, Ling Che frowned and pulled her over to sit down. "There's no need for you to bow your head. Warren wants to cooperate with us for a long time. He was just joking with you."

"But to me, your life is more important than anything else." Qiao Ruyi looked at him. "Even if he offered to trade the entire LS Group for it today, I would agree without hesitation."

"It was a pleasure working with CHE before. Meeting and talking with you makes me appreciate you even more. CHE truly has a good wife and a good partner. I'm not that greedy. Our cooperation remains unchanged." Warren looked at Ling Che and raised his coffee cup. "In your Chinese language, it's called—"

"That's very kind." Ling Che smiled.

"Yes, that's very kind." Warren looked at him and extended a hand. "Since the cooperation remains unchanged, then I'll settle the medical bills."

Ling Che chuckled, "Then I don't mind staying at your house for a few more days."

He put his arm around Qiao Ruyi's shoulders and said, "My wife would also like to visit your other seven wives one by one."

"Stop!" Warren quickly stretched out a hand to stop him from thinking this. "You'd better go back home as soon as possible."

......

The return trip was scheduled for the next day.

That afternoon, Warren took the two of them to meet the medical team treating Ling Che, explained some matters related to his recovery, and even told him not to get injured again within a year.

Qiao Ruyi listened more carefully than Ling Che, the patient, and even took out a small notebook to write down everything the doctor said.

The more she remembered, the more Qiao Ruyi realized that although Ling Che, who was standing in front of her now, looked intact, three years ago, there was not a single good spot on his body, inside and out.

No wonder Warren said he couldn't even get out of the ground twenty days ago.

To be able to recover quickly to his current state, he has endured several times more hardships than ordinary people.

He asked the medical team to give him the fastest recovery plan because he said he didn't have time to wait too long.

So in addition to other rehabilitation training every day, the two hours of basketball training alone would make him sweat profusely in pain.

During these three years of separation, neither of them lived better than the other.

But only after experiencing a heart-wrenching loss will we cherish the days we spend together even more.

So throughout the whole day, Qiao Ruyi's hand never left Ling Che's palm.

She just wanted to hold him tightly and not let him leave her world again.

but--

The hand they were holding loosened when Qiao Ruyi received a phone call in the evening.

She glanced at the caller ID and deliberately walked to the balcony of the second bedroom and made the call with her back to the door.

Seeing her mysterious look, Ling Che frowned slightly in displeasure.

"I miss you so much... I want to kiss you and hug you..."

"Okay, baby, see you when I get home... Love you, love you..."

Qiao Ruyi held the phone, her voice sweet and gentle.

Every time she spoke, the man behind her frowned a little.

The man standing at the door couldn't hear the voice on the phone, but only heard her sweet words that were so sweet that they made him sick. His handsome face was full of unhappiness.

Qiao Ruyi hung up the phone with a smile, and just as she turned around, she saw a tall figure leaning against the door frame.

He stared at her with burning eyes, and although he didn't say a word, it seemed as if he was asking thousands of questions.

Qiao Ruyi was very familiar with his expression, and there was a sour smell in the air.

She deliberately raised the phone in her hand and said nonchalantly, "Oh, I just received a call."

Ling Che leaned against the door frame, folded his arms and glared at him, asking sourly, "Who's calling and still wants to kiss you, hug you, and love you dearly?"

The person on the other end of the phone was definitely not her good sister Song Xilan, nor was it Fang Ran.

Because she couldn't speak with a pinched throat.

"Hiss—" Qiao Ruyi pretended to be guilty and took a deep breath. "Damn it, you heard me?"

Not only did she not feel guilty at all, but she seemed very proud of herself.

Ling Che raised an eyebrow and looked at her, "Qiao Ruyi, who is it?"

He held out his hand, "Let me see it."

"That won't work." Qiao Ruyi quickly hid the phone behind her back. "This is my personal privacy."

All personal privacy is exposed?

Ling Che frowned, calculated the time in his mind, and said softly, "Sure enough, the seven-year itch is real. We've only been together for seven years, and you're already secretly making flirtatious phone calls behind my back."
