Who is Fang Rushuang? To be precise, if Qin Zhiyou hadn’t met Lu Weixi first, hadn’t fallen in love with Lu Weixi first, there was a high probability that Fang Rushuang would have been his love interest. Even if he had met Lu Weixi first, if she hadn’t broken up with Qin Zhigu, he could have happily married Fang Rushuang.
They were indeed engaged. However, right at the cusp of their wedding, Lu Weixi and Qin Zhigu broke up and Qin Zhiyou took advantage of the chaos to win her over, leaving Fang Rushuang with nothing more than an apology.
Afterward, the Fang Family and the Bai Family moved abroad together and haven’t made contact for many years.
He knew that Fang’s father, who was the legal advisor of the Bai Family, had done many dishonorable things during Lu’s mother’s divorce lawsuit. So, the fact that Lu Weixi was able to fairly “steal” him away from Fang Rushuang wasn’t entirely because he is Qin Zhisu’s brother.
Nevertheless, regardless of Fang’s family circumstances, Fang Rushuang was innocent.
And after their engagement was canceled and they became the laughingstock of everyone, she never expressed a word of blame.
Qin Zhiyou sat in his swivel chair, one hand holding a cell phone and the fingers of his other hand rhythmically tapping the armrest. Suddenly, he looked up and asked, “What’s the schedule for this trip? Remind me one more time.”
Secretary Wang nodded: “Tomorrow morning, we’ll attend a tour of ancient architectural complexes. We’ll spend the night in a hotel at the foot of the mountain and return the day after. The day after that, we’ll visit the national demonstration zone Xincheng coastal development area, and stay in Xincheng overnight. The closing ceremony will be held the next afternoon at the Xincheng Conference Hall, where you’re expected to deliver a speech. Especially for the last day’s speech, Mr. Qin, you are the designated speaker, so you must attend.”
Qin Zhiyou nodded, which meant he could skip the touring and mountain climbing activities around the so-called ancient architectural complex for the next couple of days, right?
As he pulled his hand back from his cell phone, he said directly, “So, that means I can skip the activities the day after tomorrow and head directly to Xincheng. Whatever ancient architectural sites on XX mountain…that kind of place…”
Before he could finish speaking, the voice of Lu Weixi suddenly came from his phone, “You’re going to XX mountain’s ancient architectural complex?”
Qin Zhiyou was startled, nearly dropping his phone.
Upon closer inspection, he had indeed accidentally dialed there. It must’ve been an error when he was handling his phone earlier, unlocking it with his fingerprint. Besides, Lu Weixi’s number was set as speed dial 1. He never misdials when using his phone ordinarily; this was pure accident.
“Yes, I am.”
“That’s fantastic! The ancient architectural complex on XX mountain has been under protection for years and hasn’t been open to the public. If you go, please take some pictures for me, especially of the murals and carvings, but remember not to use flash.”
Lu Weixi is a fanatic for architecture, which is also why she is passionate about design. Qin Zhiyou could only nod: “Sure.”
Now the two of them were on the phone and didn’t know what else to say.
Secretary Wang had discreetly exited the room. Qin Zhiyou held his phone and went to the window. The outside was brilliantly lit, but inside a thousand words lay buried, reaching the tip of his tongue but not a single word could escape his lips.
After a while, he finally broke the silence. “You…Don’t work too hard.”
On the other side, Lu Weixi faltered. Was Qin Zhiyou trying to make amends with her?
Nevertheless, Qin Zhiyou’s next words were, “Every time I come back, I can never enjoy it to the fullest….”
