Lu Ning pursed her lips: "Although I am very grateful that you can be the child's temporary father today, it is not real after all. I don't want the child to have any illusions and be sad in the future."

Ji Chiqian's Adam's apple bobbed slightly: "You're right."

Upon hearing his answer, Lu Ning felt a slight bitterness in her heart. Yes, he had a woman he deeply loved, someone he still loved even after losing his memory.

Unlike her, she met a scumbag.

Ji Chiqian continued, "But I can be the child's godfather, and this is also her home."

Didn't you say you refused?

"That was before."

Lu Ning then asked, "Then why did you agree now?"

Ji Chiqian thought for a moment and said, "I have news about her. I'm taking a flight to the US tonight."

Upon hearing his words, Lu Ning slowly closed her hands.

Oh, so you found news about your ex-girlfriend.

Lu Ning smiled casually, "Then congratulations! After searching for so many years, you've finally found news of her."

Ji Chiqian looked at her: "Gu Zhentian has been arrested now, and the chances of him getting out in this lifetime are slim. Can't you tell me who that person is?"

He has been having people investigate Ji Mo's past romantic relationships, but so far they haven't found any information about his relationship with this woman.

So who exactly is this woman looking for in a scumbag relationship?

Ji Chiqian was also curious about this, and was also vaguely worried.

"I'll tell you when you get back from the US."

Lu Ning looked at him, thinking that by then, he might have lost interest.

However, after spending this time together, even if Ji Chiqian knew that Gu Zifeng was that scumbag, he probably wouldn't stand by that scumbag's side anymore.

That way, the child will be safe.

Even if she plans to settle here in the future, she doesn't need to worry too much.

However, Lu Ning's mood turned sour, and she became slightly irritable. She knew why she was irritable, but she forced herself to forget it.

The two of them remained silent, as if by unspoken agreement.

Ji Chiqian glanced at Lu Ning beside him without making a sound. He subconsciously touched his pocket, feeling an urge to smoke.

He should be happy now that he has news about Lu Ning.

After all, the only thing that had sustained him for the past five years was finding Lu Ning.

But now, his feelings have become more complicated.

The birthday party continued, but the adults' feelings became complicated.

The little one played all day and received many gifts, and fell asleep before even finishing dinner.

Lu Ning looked at her daughter sleeping amidst the gifts, smiled helplessly, and prepared to carry her upstairs, but Ji Chiqian came over and took the little pink dumpling into his arms.

Lu Ning watched his retreating figure, feeling a pang of reluctance.

Should we snatch this man away?

But she couldn't do such a thing.

In the end, she followed him into the room and stood by, watching Ji Chiqian put the child on the bed.

She stood in the doorway: "When are you leaving?"

"I'll be leaving soon."

"Alright, best of luck."

Lu Ning has now adjusted her mood, after all, they have only been in contact for less than a month.

This man is indeed quite good.

But she couldn't bring herself to ruin other people's relationships, especially since Ji Chiqian's amnesia was related to her third brother.

She needs to confirm this with Lu Bei as soon as possible.

Ji Chiqian nodded: "Mm."

Lu Ning looked up and said, "By the way, since you've already gone to the US, I'll have someone send you some special medicine."

Ji Chiqian did not refuse. As for the origin of the special medicine, he would investigate it himself.

Lu Ning watched Ji Chiqian leave, and then she returned to her room.

It's time for her to finish her own business; as for the future, she can deal with that later.

After Ji Chiqian went downstairs, he saw Madam Ji waiting for him.

Madam Ji glanced upstairs, then lowered her voice and said, "You're leaving, aren't you?"

"Ah."

Madam Ji looked at Ji Chiqian in front of her and said, "Go ahead, you've been searching for so many years."

"I know."

Madam Ji hesitated for a moment, then said, "I heard she had a child? The child looks a lot like you."

Madam Ji showed the photo to Ji Chiqian.

The man glanced at it and was somewhat moved.

Mrs. Ji continued, "No matter what, find her and explain everything clearly."

"I see."

Ji Chiqian turned and left the old house.

Madam Ji stood there and simply sighed.

What kind of situation is this?

-

Ji Chiqian went directly to the United States in a private helicopter.

He actually thought a lot along the way.

For the past five years, he has been thinking about what would happen after he found Lu Ning.

After all, she was the woman he once loved most.

Ji Chiqian had also seen the confession video he left behind. At that time, he knew he would lose his memory, so he specially recorded such a video.

He looked at the man in the video, so affectionate, but he still couldn't recall that feeling.

Ji Chiqian stepped off the helicopter and saw Gu Zifeng standing next to the car, looking nonchalant.

Gu Zifeng said, "You're here."

"Ah."

Ji Chiqian walked up to Gu Zifeng: "Looks like you're in good shape lately. Not having any bad luck anymore?"

“I don’t know what’s been going on lately, but I haven’t been this unlucky. So it proves our suspicions were right: the Andrei family is after us. But we still don’t know why.”

Ji Chiqian looked at Gu Zifeng: "But didn't you say that the heir of that family is Lu Ning? Then why is she targeting you, or more accurately, targeting us?"

"I don't know, but it was most likely done by that kid Lu Xicheng. He doesn't get along with us."

Gu Zifeng was able to make this deduction.

Ji Chiqian frowned: "Where should we meet her?"

"Seeing her won't be easy. Let's go and meet up with them first. Chen Yu has been trying to investigate everything about this family and what Lu Ning has gone through over the years to become like this."

Although they know Lu Ning's whereabouts, it's not easy to tell her what happened.

Over the years, Lu Xicheng has probably said countless bad things about them to Lu Ning.

Perhaps in Lu Ning's eyes, they were the bad guys.

Ji Chiqian followed Gu Zifeng to the hotel suite, where Chen Yu and Qin Yang were indeed present.

Qin Yang looked up and saw Ji Chiqian: "You're here. Were you very nervous and anxious on the way?"

"roll!"

Ji Chiqian could hear the teasing in his brother's words.

After he sat down on the sofa, he looked up and saw Chen Yu making a phone call outside on the balcony.

He looked at Qin Yang: "What have you found out on your end?"

"The Andrei family is very low-key and mysterious; we haven't found any valuable information. So only you can see Lu Ning and explain everything to her personally. Did you bring the selfie video?"

"Of course I brought it."

Ji Chiqian took out his phone; the information was already saved there.

At that moment, Chen Yu walked in.

She looked at Ji Chiqian: "They've agreed to meet."
