Chapter 846: Chapter 846: Wait for Me
Zhixi vaguely guessed that something might have happened to He Yirong, and she nodded: “Okay, be careful on the road.”
He Jingyao suddenly stopped in his tracks, turned around, and hugged her, pressing his lips hard against hers: “Wait for me.”
Listening to his deep voice, Zhixi suddenly felt like crying for some reason.
But before she could react, the man had already let go of her and walked out in large strides.
Uncle Li happened to have returned from shopping and bumped into He Jingyao at the door: “Young Master.”
He Jingyao whispered a few words to him, and Uncle Li’s expression changed slightly.
“I understand.” Uncle Li looked serious, “Please be careful.”
“Take good care of Zhixi and Xiaobao.” He Jingyao said deeply, tossing these words back as he turned to leave.
Uncle Li walked into the house, looked at Zhixi who seemed in a daze, then glanced at He Ziyi beside her, who seemed at a loss, and smiled: “Young Mistress, Miss, the Young Master will be fine, there’s no need to worry.”
Zhixi slowly exhaled and nodded. She went to the window and looked down, just in time to see Feng Qian open the car door for He Jingyao. The man bent down to get in the car, and soon, the car sped off into the dust.
Zhixi suddenly felt like her heart was being clenched by a large hand, so heavy that it was hard to breathe.
“Sister-in-law…” He Ziyi twisted her fingers, speaking nervously.
Zhixi smiled, walked over, and hugged her: “It’s fine, you can stay here tonight until your father and brother return, okay?”
Ziyi’s eyes were slightly red: “I… I want to go back to accompany Mom.”
Zhixi thought for a moment and nodded: “You should, go back and accompany Mom. I’ll call you if there’s any news.”
“Okay.” Ziyi obediently nodded.
After Ziyi left, Zhixi turned to Xiaobao’s room.
The little guy was sitting on the bed in a daze, not fully awake yet.
He rubbed his eyes, saw Zhixi, and opened his arms: “Mama.”
Zhixi smiled, carried him to the bathroom, washed his hands and face, and then took him to the living room, placing him on the sofa.
“Where are Dad and Aunt?” he turned his head and asked.
“Aunt went home, and Dad… went out. He might come back in a couple of days.” Zhixi explained, her expression slightly sullen.
If He Yirong might be in danger, then Jingyao…
No, he won’t be in trouble.
Xiaobao said with a grin, “Mama, even if you have to be apart from Dad for two days, there’s no need to cry, it’s embarrassing.”
Yes, it’s only two days apart.
Zhixi’s heart eased a little, and she smiled, pinching his cheek.
***
Lingdu is a remote small town, known for its beautiful mountain and river scenery.
After getting off the plane, He Yirong got into a car headed for the mountains.
The meeting was held at a hot spring hotel in the mountains.
He Yirong sat in the car, closing his eyes to rest, pondering how to clean up the mess left by He Yizheng. However, after thinking for a long time, he couldn’t come up with any solution.
The only consolation was that, given the current situation, Zhuo Yuwei had a very low chance of winning. Offending Zhuo Yuwei shouldn’t be feared either. Even He Yirong did not expect Zhuo Yuwei to be so unpopular and unable to secure sponsorship. With the Ye Family supporting him, theoretically, the situation shouldn’t be so one-sided.
But the result surprised everyone.
As He Yirong thought about it, a chill ran through him, and he suddenly had a ridiculous idea.
Could it be Jingyao’s doing?
