Before leaving, the man reached out and took the woman's slender body into his arms.

Even though he was reluctant to leave and was reluctant to say goodbye, he still let her go as promised after lightly touching her soft lips with his thin lips.

"Ah Rong, will you miss me?"

Will you miss him?

When it comes to the trickiness of the questions, Huo Jiuzhou is indeed more skilled.

Fearing that he would suddenly go back on the agreement they had made, Shi Rong, as usual, tried to say nice things.

"of course."

Maybe every time I dream at midnight...

Feeling someone pulling her coat, Shi Rong turned around and saw Ji Xinyue pointing at the car behind her, which she had kicked to pieces when fighting with someone.

Shi Rong reacted immediately and turned to ask Huo Jiuzhou for help.

"Well, how about... you lend me a car?"

The man was amused by her embarrassed look, and his smile was gentle and warm like jade.

"Small things."

As he said this, he snapped his fingers to Huo Xun behind him. The latter understood and immediately handed the key of the Bentley car to Shi Rong respectfully without stopping.

"Thank you."

Shi Rong took it awkwardly and threw it to Ji Xinyue.

"Then... I'm leaving."

Just as she was about to get in the car, she was grabbed by the man in front of her.

"Wait."

As soon as Shi Rong turned her inquiring eyes back, she saw the man raise his jade hand slightly, palm facing up, and stretch it towards her.

Shi Rong was stunned again, not understanding what he meant at all.

Is this... asking her for taxi fare?

Seeing that she had completely misunderstood the direction and was acting foolishly, the man laughed again and reminded her.

"Give me the phone."

cell phone?

Oh! Shi Rong understood.

So he hurriedly took his personal mobile phone from Shen Mingxing's bag and put it in his hand consciously.

The man pressed the power button with his long finger, but before he could do what he was supposed to do, his palms were numb from the continuous buzzing of WeChat message notification sounds.

Shi Rong felt even more embarrassed when he saw this... He could only smile awkwardly and start to explain.

"I didn't use that...very often before."

Shi Rong's phone screensaver was a simple and pure cartoon picture. If Huo Jiuzhou remembered correctly, it was a Q-version portrait of a female character from her favorite domestic animation.

Ignoring the WeChat messages that were still vibrating and scrolling on the screen, Huo Jiuzhou directly opened his phone's address book, saved a few numbers in it, and set them as special attention.

"Call me if you need anything."

Shi Rong took it and nodded repeatedly.

Everyone got into their cars and sat down, but Chu Yuren was the only one who remained standing, completely confused, not knowing who to follow or which car to take.

Until Shi Rong stretched out her small hand with fingers as white as scallions, grabbed the corner of his coat, pulled him into the Cullinan, and let him sit next to her.

"Didn't I tell you to follow me? Then you must be sitting with me."

Yes!

After hearing this, Chu Yu finally realized what was going on.

After Huo Zun and his men automatically made way for them, Lan Chuan stepped on the accelerator and drove away with the convoy behind him.

Along the way, seeing Chu Yu beside him looking reserved and uneasy, Shi Rong stopped replying to WeChat and glanced at him.

"Are you nervous?"

"what?"

When she spoke, her voice was not loud and her tone was not harsh, but it was inexplicable and scared Chu Yu.

Realizing that his condition was abnormal, Chu Yu scratched his head in confusion.

"No…"

Shi Rong smiled bitterly. The word "restraint" was almost written on his forehead, but it wasn't there yet...

Xia Zhi leaned over from the back seat of the car at the right time and poked Chu Yu's shoulder.

"Brother Chu Yu, don't worry. Rong Rong is much gentler than your boss. She's very easy to talk to. Your boss asked you to follow her, which is a great job. If you don't believe me, ask Lan Chuan and Miao Man."

When Lanchuan Miaoman heard someone calling him, he responded immediately.

"Yes, Chulu."

That’s right, Chu Yu nodded heavily. This woman was indeed a bit fierce when fighting.

But Chu Yu remembered that when he dealt with her in the past, she was known for her beauty and kindness, so he relaxed a lot.

"Get some sleep. I'll arrive in East City tomorrow morning and go straight to the company to work. I won't have any extra rest time."

Before Shi Rong went to bed, he brought a thick blanket to Chu Yu.

"Build it up. East City is much colder than North City."

Chu Zhao was flattered and hugged the brand new gold-thread blanket. She was really considerate.

"Okay, thank you."

……

The Huo family's pear garden.

"Jiuzhou, do you miss Ah Rong?"

After Shi Rong left, the group, led by Huo Jiuzhou, returned to the Huo family along the same route.

Seeing that the light in Huo Jiuzhou's second bedroom was still on, Mei Wei walked in carrying a bowl of light-flavored lotus leaf and lotus seed soup, and patted the man who was sitting in the leather swivel chair behind the mahogany desk with a depressed look and seemed to be in a trance.

"Ah."

Huo Jiuzhou nodded and admitted it generously, feeling a dull pain in his chest as his heart suddenly shrank.

"Son, I still say the same thing. You have to believe in Ah Rong. She will come back."

Mei Wei looked at her son, who looked completely listless and depressed, and sighed.

"Besides, she is the daughter of the Ying family. She can't stay away from home just for you. You have to give her time."

North City is 680 kilometers away from East City. It takes 5-6 hours to drive there at a fast speed, crossing 20 different streets and 7 rest areas along the way.

Huo Jiuzhou even thought, how nice it would be if his Ah Rong's home was in North City, or if her position in the Ying family was insignificant and she didn't have to worry about family affairs.

Thinking of this, the man curled his thin lips slightly, and a hint of bitter taste came out of his mouth and was swallowed into his stomach.

Look at him, what is he thinking? His Ah Rong is so talented and virtuous, he should be happy.

"I know, Mom."

I know nothing!

From the moment she entered the room, this person stared intently at Shi Rong's peaceful and tranquil sleeping face on the laptop screen, not even giving her a spare glance.

Mei Wei really hoped that Ah Rong could come back to see Jiuzhou occasionally, so that he wouldn't become sick with homesickness.

……

The next day at 10:15 am.

After a 6-hour journey, Cullinan successfully arrived in the center of Dongcheng.

It stopped steadily in front of a clothing store called "Jiangzhou Qingchou" located on Guixu Road, next to the office building of Yingqi Group.

Shi Rong led his men out of the car and walked into the store. After being greeted by six female store clerks with measured manners, he found a pair of similar clothes to change into.

When the person came out of the dressing room again, Chu Yu took a look and was so fascinated that he stood there in a daze.

There was only a slim-fitting dress made of navy blue, turquoise and ink-colored gauze covering Shi Rong's graceful body.

It has a V-neck, flat-shoulder, long-sleeved design, and a row of delicate and small round buttons sewn from the neckline to the center of the legs. The drooping skirt reaches her ankles, and the lower body is semi-transparent, making her pair of beautiful legs with skin as white as snow faintly visible.

She wore silver and black 7cm high heels, which made her full curves look even taller and slimmer, and paired it with a smoky green mid-length fur coat.

Her black hair was tied up in a bun casually at the back of her head, which looked particularly simple and beautiful. There were a few loose bangs and hair falling naturally on her forehead, which matched her business-style light makeup, bright eyes, white teeth, and charming eyes.
