Meeting you in autumn

Chapter 158 Jing Yi Returns to the Capital

Just as he finished speaking, Guan Yu waved his hand slightly, signaling his men to quickly remove the horrifying rat from the area.

Qi He, relieved of a moment's burden, let out a deep breath.

But soon, her expression turned ferocious again, her eyes fixed on Guan Yu with venomous hatred, and she roared through gritted teeth, "Guan Yu, you'll never know the truth!!!"

Almost simultaneously, a cry of alarm rang out. Feng Li, his face contorted with extreme tension, shouted hoarsely, "Stop her!! We can't let her succeed!!"

Unfortunately, it was all too late. Despite Feng Li's quick reaction, Guan Yu remained unmoved, simply staring coldly at Qi He with a blank expression.

At this point, Qi He was already heartbroken and chose to bite his tongue and commit suicide without hesitation.

By the time Feng Li rushed to Guan Yu's side in a panic, Qi He had already died.

"Hmph, how utterly boring!" Guan Yu snorted disdainfully, as if she didn't care at all about Qi He's death.

Having said that, she didn't even glance at the corpse on the ground again, turned around and walked towards the exit, leaving behind the words, "I'll go first."

In the blink of an eye, her figure disappeared into the dark and deep basement.

Feng Li stared silently at Qi He's corpse, his eyes filled with complex and unreadable emotions. After a long while, he slowly spoke and ordered, "Clean it up."

After saying this, he left the basement, which was filled with the stench of blood and the shadow of death, without looking back, together with Shen Chen.

Meanwhile, Guan Yu left the Feng family's old house and drove to the hospital.

Just as she lifted her foot to step into the hospital, a familiar figure came into view—it was Feng Ming, who was walking out of the hospital.

"Brother Feng Ming!" Guan Yu exclaimed in surprise.

Hearing the shout, Feng Ming stopped and looked in the direction of the sound.

When he saw Guan Yu, a look of confusion appeared on his face, and he asked, "Shouldn't you be at the airport right now? How come you're suddenly here?"

However, Feng Ming's words left Guan Yu completely confused. She blinked her big eyes, her face full of incomprehension and bewilderment, and asked, "What airport? Why would I go to an airport?"

Seeing this, Feng Ming frowned and explained, "Jing Yi and the others are returning to the capital today. Didn't he tell you about this?"

"What? A-Yi is going back to the capital today?" Guan Yu stared wide-eyed at Feng Ming, her face full of disbelief, and asked.

Feng Ming was also completely bewildered, but he nodded in agreement.

After receiving this definite answer, Guan Yu no longer cared about Feng Ming.

She frantically pulled out her phone and started dialing Jing Yi's number.

However, the phone kept ringing with a dial tone, and no one answered.

Guan Yu grew increasingly anxious, and she subconsciously turned her gaze to Feng Ming.

At this moment, Feng Ming looked at her with an innocent expression, as if to tell her that this matter had nothing to do with him.

Finally, under Guan Yu's watchful gaze, Feng Ming shrugged helplessly and turned to leave.

Undeterred, Guan Yu dialed the number again. The call connected, and a tired, hoarse voice said, "Hello~"

"Ah Yi, you're back in the capital?" Guan Yu asked impatiently.

"Hmm," Jing Yi said calmly.

"Ah Yi, why didn't you tell me?" Guan Yu said, sounding a little aggrieved.

Hearing her words, Jing Yi gave a cold laugh, then said expressionlessly, "Would you care?"

Upon hearing this, Guan Yu was about to speak when Jing Yi spoke first, saying, "I have something to do, I'm hanging up!"

After saying that, Guan Yu only heard a busy tone. Guan Yu knew that he must be angry because she had acted without permission yesterday.

She then called Lin Qi again, and the call was answered in a second.

She said sternly, "Where are you?"

Lin Qi, who was on the phone, had just been punished and was covered in blood. He had been carried back by his teammates and was about to lie down when the phone rang.

Upon seeing the caller ID, Lin Qi quickly pressed the answer button. After hearing Guan Yu's voice, Lin Qi said weakly, "Miss, I'm in Lan Yu."

"Come with me to the capital in a few days."

"Yes!" Lin Qi replied.

Guan Yu then hung up the phone and headed towards the hospital.

Three days later, Guan Yu and Lin Qi embarked on their journey to the capital.

Upon arriving in Beijing, Guan Yu went back to the hotel first. After settling everything in, Guan Yu and Lin Qi drove to Xingyi Group.

Upon hearing that Guan Yu was coming, Shen Jia sat on the sofa at the front desk early, playing on her phone and waiting for her.

When Guan Yu came in, she saw Shen Jia and exclaimed joyfully, "Jiajia!"

Upon hearing the voice, Shen Jia immediately put down her phone, stood up, and hugged Guan Yu tightly: "I missed you so much, little fish!"

"Little Fish??" Guan Yu asked in confusion.

"This is the nickname I gave you, isn't it cute?" Shen Jia said with a smile.

Guan Yu smiled helplessly, then followed Shen Jia into the company.

They arrived outside Jing Yi's office. Guan Yu took a deep breath and knocked on the door.

A cold voice came from inside: "Come in."

When he saw that it was Guan Yu, a complicated look flashed in Jing Yi's eyes, but he quickly regained his indifference.

Guan Yu mustered her courage and said, "Ah Yi, I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have acted on my own that day."

Jing Yi snorted coldly: "You came here just to say this?"

Lin Qi couldn't help but ask, "What do you mean??"

"Lin Qi!!" Guan Yu frowned slightly upon hearing Lin Qi's voice and couldn't help but scold him.

Lin Qi asked, then lowered his head. Seeing this, Guan Yu said, "You should go out first!"

"Yes, Miss!" Lin Qi said and walked out.

Seeing this, Shen Jia, who was standing nearby, also wisely left.

Now only Jing Yi and Guan Yu remain in the office.

"Ah Yi, I shouldn't have sent you away that day. I know I was wrong!" Guan Yu said softly.

Jing Yi looked at Guan Yu quietly, and after a long silence, she slowly spoke: "Do you know how dangerous what you did was? What if something happened?"

Guan Yu's eyes reddened, and she said softly, "I didn't think that much at the time. I thought I could handle it."

Jing Yi sighed, walked up to Guan Yu, and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes: "You're always so reckless."

Guan Yu's heart stirred, and she looked up at Jing Yi.

As if he had made up his mind, Jing Yi suddenly pulled Guan Yu into his arms: "Don't do this again next time. If something happens to you, I..." The rest of his words were drowned out by the embrace.

Guan Yu was taken aback at first, then blushed and slowly wrapped her arms around Jing Yi's waist.

Just then, the door was suddenly pushed open, and Lin Qi rushed in. Seeing the scene before her, her eyes widened: "M-Young Miss..."

Guan Yu hurriedly broke free from Jing Yi's embrace and awkwardly straightened her clothes.

Jing Yi frowned in displeasure: "Didn't you knock before coming in?"

Lin Qi scratched his head: "I think I just heard crying. I was worried that the young lady was in danger."

Guan Yu blushed and scolded, "Who's crying? Get out of here!"

Lin Qi chuckled and left, leaving only Jing Yi and Guan Yu in the room. The two looked at each other and smiled.

"Ah Yi, did you come back because you were angry?" Guan Yu asked.

"No, there are some important things I need to handle."

Thinking of something, Jing Yi asked, "Why did you come to the capital?"
