Don't meet me in your next life.

The scenery in LS is quite different from that in China, and Xiang Yiyi is still a little unaccustomed to it. However, she is here to study, so the environment can be ignored.

To make her studies easier, Xiang Yi rented a one-bedroom apartment as soon as she got off the plane and bought some basic furniture. No matter where she was, she didn't intend to make herself uncomfortable.

After registering, she was as happy as a child on campus. Studying at LS had always been her dream. It was a mecca for fashion designers, and the dream destination for fashion designers.

Besides eating, taking walks with her unborn child, doing prenatal yoga, and having regular prenatal checkups, Xiang Yi spent the rest of her time studying diligently. In just two months, she began to make a name for herself in the design world. Designer AY (ALAIN.YIFU) started to be known locally, and her name appeared on the top design list alongside her mentor Lisa's.

In the fifth month of her studies, Xiang Yiyi won the gold design award for her wedding dress, "Eternal Flame," which she designed on her own. However, due to her growing belly, she did not attend the award ceremony, which led to various speculations about the designer.

Since she arrived in LS, her domestic mobile phone couldn't be used. She sent Xiao Qing an MSN message, but Xiao Qing didn't use it and probably didn't see it, so she didn't pay any attention to it.

She abandoned everything, wanting only to achieve her goals and live a good life for herself.

The vast grassland is truly beautiful. The blue sky is dotted with a few leisurely white clouds, and the lush green grass is like a blanket covering the earth. The melodious sound of the morin khuur (horsehead fiddle) drifts in, as if singing. Such scenery makes it hard to leave.

Lu Sichen has been on the grassland for almost half a year. He has traveled to many places and asked many people about someone.

"Xiao Qing, any news about Yi Yi?" Lu Sichen sent a message to Xiao Qing.

"No, have you found her?" No, I'm still looking.

"Tell me as soon as you hear from her."

Okay. Let me know if you hear anything about her.

Where could his Yi Yi have gone? He set off from Yunxi and has now circled back to Yunxi, but he still hasn't seen his Yi Yi.

In six months, he had traversed two-thirds of the grasslands, yet he still hadn't seen his Yi Yi. He had promised to give her a wedding on the grasslands and a "home" in Yunxi, so that when she was feeling down or tired, she could enjoy the nourishment of the blue sky and grasslands. Would she one day come here too?

Lu Sichen originally wanted to speed up his pace to find Yi Yi, but this month, he began to feel a little tired, not knowing if it was due to altitude sickness or if his body could no longer handle it.

Thinking of the promise the two of them made, Lu Sichen decided to settle down in Yunxi, searching and waiting at the same time.

He flew back to Shashi, using investment as an excuse to ask Lu Chengmin for money. However, Lu Chengmin wanted him to return and inherit the Lu family business, otherwise he would even cancel his credit cards. In the end, Lu Sichen persuaded his grandfather to let him go and try his luck. Lu Yaodong agreed with his idea and gave him 500 million yuan. Lu Chengmin had no choice.

Lu Sichen returned to Yunxi and spent three million to buy a guesthouse, renaming it Yi Yi Guesthouse. He started running it himself, determined to make it a success. He hoped that one day Yi Yi would see it, know that he was waiting for her, and that he had left her a way out here.

Lu Chengmin has been in a state of utter chaos these past few months. His own son, Lin Lubai, has moved to Shashi and started fighting him. However, he has to admit that the student has surpassed the teacher; Lin Lubai is more capable than his father. In just a few months, he has wiped out half of his Lu family business. This time, he seems intent on annihilating him. But he still has a backup plan; old foxes aren't so easy to fool.

“Son, you truly are my son, even more capable than your father. Tell me, what do you want next?” Lu Chengmin deliberately provoked Lin Lubai.

Lin Lubai sneered: "Let's see how long you can be so arrogant. I'll make you taste the bitterness of loss."

After saying that, he hung up the phone immediately, completely ignoring Lu Chengmin's reaction on the other end.

Seeing the phone call end, Lu Chengmin knew that his son was furious. Over the years, he hated it most when people mentioned his son, but he wanted to do this to provoke him and make him speed up so that he would have a chance to retaliate.

"President Lin, it seems the Lu family is in trouble. They're putting us under so much pressure that we can't even lift our heads," the female secretary said to Lin Lubai in the office in Shashi.

"Don't underestimate a starved camel," Lin Lubai replied casually.

"What if he retaliates?" the secretary asked nervously.

“It’s alright. As long as the funeral industry doesn’t give him a chance, it won’t be easy for him to turn things around. I’d like to see how long he can hold out. Let’s drive down the prices and see what he can use to compete with us.” Lin Lubai didn’t even look up.

"Okay. I'll go and tell the marketing department to send over a proposal now." The female secretary looked at Lin Lubai with a gleam in her eyes, but unfortunately, her boss was too innocent and too cold-hearted, and he rarely spoke to women.

She had worked at Lin's for several years before being transferred from headquarters to Shashi. She had assumed her boss had designs on her, but now she realized she had been overthinking it. Her boss had barely even given her a second glance.

The female secretary pursed her lips, closed the door, and left.

"Mr. Lin, I discovered that Lu Sichen has opened a guesthouse in Yunxi called 'Yi Yi Guesthouse'." Xiao Zhao called Lin Lubai.

"Yi Yi is here too?" Lin Lubai stood up immediately.

"I didn't see him, I only saw Lu Sichen alone," Xiao Zhao reported truthfully.

"Then you keep an eye on this kid. If Yi Yi shows up, tell me immediately. Also, how many of the hospitals I asked you to acquire have you taken over?" Lu Sichen asked.

"We're currently negotiating with this company; it will take some time, but we should be able to close the deal soon," Xiao Zhao reported to Lin Lubai.

"You'd better hurry up. I'll give you two more months. Get that hospital over there as soon as possible. I don't want to be born before I even know it," Lin Lubai ordered.

"I'm trying my best," Xiao Zhao said, somewhat helplessly.

"I don't care. If I don't live to see my son born, I'll send you to Africa as a vice president." Lin Lubai said bluntly.

"Mr. Lin, spare me!" Little Zhao begged for mercy.

"Beep beep beep..." The busy tone came from the other end of the phone. Lin Lubai hung up the phone, not giving him a chance at all.

Xiao Zhao could only speed things up and try to acquire the hospital in the grassland before President Lin's baby was born. If he couldn't acquire it, he had to make arrangements with the hospital director so that he could contact him as soon as his wife appeared. However, they had been looking for his wife for so long without any news. It was as if she had vanished into thin air.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Lubai contacted several other people and asked them the same question: he needed progress, he wanted to invest heavily in the medical industry for his wife and children, and acquire all the hospitals that the government could buy. For those that couldn't, he would make arrangements with the hospital directors so that he would know as soon as Xiang Yi appeared.

Xiang Yiyi, I miss you so much. Where are you? I've been working day and night for the past six months, having them search for you all over the country, but there's still no trace of you. Where are you hiding? Lin Lubai muttered to himself.

It started raining heavily outside the window, the raindrops pattering against the glass. Where was Xiang Yiyi at this moment?
