Summer has already prepared breakfast.

In the past two years, Shengxia has only occasionally accepted design invitations from brands. Apart from that, having a child seems to have diminished her drive for her career.

During the height of summer, all her thoughts were focused on her family and children.

Therefore, Lin Chengcheng has lived a very happy life over the years.

Seeing how much Sheng Xia had sacrificed for her child, Lin Qingran suddenly thought of how, when Lin Jinjin and Lin Chengcheng were so old, she was busy with her career and could only squeeze out time to spend with her children.

If time could turn back, Lin Qingran thought she would definitely put aside everything else and focus on spending time with her child.

In the height of summer, seeing Lin Qingran carrying Lin Chengcheng downstairs, she pulled out chairs at the dining table for Lin Chengcheng and Lin Qingran to sit down.

When Lin Qingran took her seat, she glanced at Sheng Xia and didn't see Lin Hao. She then asked him in a low voice.

Where is our eldest brother?

Shengxia pointed outside the door.

“You just left before you came down.”

"I heard there was a problem with a shipment the company sent to the capital."

Upon hearing this, Lin Qingran frowned, her expression turning somewhat grave.

"Then I'll ask him what's going on in a bit."

Sheng Xia nodded gently and said in a low voice.

“Our flight arrives in the capital at nine o’clock. Your brother didn’t say much when he left, so it shouldn’t be a difficult problem.”

"Besides, with Yan Sui helping out, your elder brother has become quite adept at business matters over the years."

Lin Qingran nodded slightly upon hearing this.

Yes, almost five years have passed.

Her elder brother has been in charge of the Lin family business for three years now.

It was very difficult at first, and things that were unacceptable became acceptable due to certain influences.

Lin Qingran sat at the dining table, eating breakfast. Her gaze fell on Lin Chengcheng, who was eating breakfast alone, and a faint smile unconsciously appeared on her lips.

During the meal, Sheng Xia noticed Lin Qingran's gaze fixed on Lin Chengcheng, a smile on her face, seemingly lost in thought.

Sheng Xia knew that Lin Qingran must have seen Lin Chengcheng and thought of Lin Jinjin.

That child has been missing for five years.

Over the years, Lin Qingran has never stopped investigating Lin Jinjin's whereabouts.

Even the two makeup artists who took Lin Jinjin away back then have not been found to this day.

If Lin Jinjin were still by Lin Qingran's side, she would probably be in elementary school by now.

Sheng Xia took a deep breath, her expression unconsciously becoming heavy. Her gaze fell on Lin Qingran, and she spoke softly.

"Eat quickly. It'll be late."

Lin Qingran nodded upon hearing this.

When Sheng Xia and Lin Qingran arrived at the airport together.

Sheng Xia thought Lin Hao wouldn't come to see them off, but after arriving at the airport, Lin Hao still put down his work and rushed over.

Lin Qingran stood beside Sheng Xia and saw the happy expression on Sheng Xia's face. A faint smile unconsciously appeared on her lips as well.

She always thought that when Sheng Xia insisted on breaking up with Lin Hao, it was probably already impossible for Lin Hao and Sheng Xia to be together.

Unexpectedly, the two least likely people ended up becoming possible.

Lin Qingran pursed her red lips, said goodbye to Lin Hao, and the three of them registered.

Inside the first-class cabin, Lin Qingran found her seat and took her place.

She had just sat down when a man sat down next to her.

Lin Qingran glanced sideways and paused for a moment when she saw the man beside her.

However, she quickly calmed down.

Lin Qingran never expected that Huo Ye would appear in front of her in this way.

When Lin Qingran learned that Huo Ye was the leader behind that organization, she had a completely new understanding of Huo Ye's gentle and refined image.

Lin Qingran looked at the man beside her and paused for a moment.

The man beside her merely glanced at her calmly before speaking slowly.

"Miss, I'm sorry, the seat inside is mine."

Lin Qingran was taken aback upon hearing this, then glanced at the plane ticket in her hand and said softly.

"I'm so sorry, it was my mistake."

As she spoke, she got up from her seat and sat down in her own place.

Her expression was full of confusion. Could it be that Huo Ye no longer recognized her?

But the person in front of me is Huo Ye.

His every move exuded a refined and scholarly air.

The commotion quickly caught Sheng Xia's attention. When she saw Huo Ye, she took a deep breath, followed by a look of anger on her face.

"Huo Ye, how dare you show your face in front of Qing Ran?"

Upon hearing the sound, the man's gaze fell upon Sheng Xia, his expression one of confusion. He tilted his head hesitantly, looking somewhat dazed.

"Are you talking to me?"

Seeing this, Sheng Xia was furious and immediately said something.

"If I'm not talking to you, then who am I talking to?"

Upon hearing this, the man frowned slightly, his expression becoming more somber.

Seeing Sheng Xia's agitated state and the man in front of her looking completely bewildered, Lin Qingran frowned and then spoke in a deep voice.

"Sir, I'm sorry, my friend has mistaken you for someone else."

The man nodded slightly and then answered in a gentle voice.

"I see. It seems that many people associate me with someone who never existed."

Lin Qingran paused for a few seconds upon hearing the sound.

A person who never existed?

Huo Ye is the eldest son of the Huo family, and he was quite a prominent figure in City A back then.

The dream lover of countless girls.

He was someone that countless wealthy and noble women would do anything to marry.

Lin Qingran looked at Huo Ye and frowned.

Sheng Xia also realized the problem, and her expression turned serious.

She looked at Lin Qingran with a puzzled expression, her eyes full of surprise.

Lin Qingran gave her a calm look, and then Sheng Xia quietly sat down next to Lin Chengcheng.

Lin Qingran sat in her own seat, while the man sat in the seat next to her.

If Lin Qingran hadn't rushed to book her flight only to find it was sold out, she wouldn't have chosen this seat. When she arrived, she thought her seat was by the window.

Later I realized that I had swapped tickets with Lin Chengcheng.

Lin Qingran originally wanted to sit by the window to enjoy the view and cleanse her soul.

But now, because of the man sitting next to her, Lin Qingran couldn't peacefully enjoy the scenery outside the window.

Is the man beside me really not Huo Ye?

Lin Qingran couldn't believe it.

She was hesitating whether to test the man beside her, but he suddenly spoke, his tone gentle, his gaze warm as he looked at Lin Qingran and whispered.

"Miss, I'd like to ask you, what kind of person is that man who looks so much like me? I'm very curious."
