Did the Queen’s Vest Fall Out?

After the knot was resolved, the atmosphere between the two became more harmonious.

Eating delicious food and chatting, two hours passed before we knew it.

Zhu Ningning also accidentally caught a glimpse of the weather outside and realized that dusk was approaching. She raised her hand and looked at her watch in surprise: "Is it eight o'clock?" She immediately smiled and said, "Time flies so fast."

Ji Ze didn't notice the passage of time at all. When he heard Ning Ning's words, he cast his deep eyes out the window and frowned subconsciously: "Why so fast?"

Yonghuang is located near the Opera House in City C. Although it is not the most eye-catching building in the city, it is surrounded by busy traffic and lively. There is also a flowing Chengjiang River that slowly passes by. The lampposts on the shore light up at night, spreading away like long orange dragons. The scenery is surprisingly beautiful.

Zhu Ningning left her seat and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window to look at it for a while. She felt astonished: "The last time we came here to eat, we were all in the banquet hall. The windows were so high that we couldn't see outside. I didn't expect the scenery to be so good after dark. Beautiful."

Ji Ze followed her, stood side by side with her and looked out the window, his breathing gradually becoming longer: "Well, it is very beautiful."

The scenery is beautiful, and the people watching the scenery are even more beautiful.

He looked sideways for a moment and took in the joyful expression on Zhu Ningning's face. It was hidden together with thousands of stars, as if there was something breathtakingly beautiful.

After a moment, he spoke, his voice slightly hoarse: "Next Monday, I will leave for Italy."

As early as on WeChat, Ji Ze had already told Ning Ning about this matter. She thought she was mentally prepared and had thought of many sentences in advance to wish him a safe journey. As a result, at this moment, the words came to my lips and I couldn't say them out.

It seemed that I was enveloped in some strange emotion, and my heart was inexplicably pounding!

She lowered her eyelashes, and her long eyelashes cast a shadow that densely fell on her lower eyelids, which had a rather complicated meaning. Zhu Ningning didn't know what was wrong with her. Her chest seemed to be blocked, and even her breathing became urgent!

After a long time, she regained some of her thoughts, turned to look at Ji Ze, and blurted out: "How long will it take to go?"

Ji Ze's flawless face looked at him quietly, and there seemed to be mist lingering in his eyes, tempting his heart: "I have to negotiate with the people over there and straighten out the work before I can come back! But this part has always been done by my dad. I take care of it myself, and even my brother rarely interferes. I think... it will take about half a year to completely finish it."

The implication is that during this period, there is no chance to return to the country.

"Ji's Group has a lot of affairs, and it only took half a year to handle them perfectly. It's really amazing!" Zhu Ningning wanted to praise Ji Ze, and her tone of voice was brewing for a long time, but in the end she was inexplicably bitter. "Abroad is no safer than at home, you have to take care of yourself!"

Her gentle care was like clouds floating in the sky, soft and light, dragging Ji Ze's heart straight into the sky.

He grinned with an extremely childish smile, almost scratching the back of his head, and said cheerfully: "Don't worry, the Ji family has always done a good job in terms of safety! It's just that after being away from China for a long time, I will miss home very much... and... …”

I miss the people here...

However, he did not dare to say this.

Ning Ning is still studying and is about to go through the most important exam in her life. Now is not the time for romance! Those words had no other use than distracting her.

Ji Ze can wait!

Wait until the girl grows up and has enough time and energy to think about this matter.

He swallowed and then said, "Ning Ning, relax and don't put too much pressure on yourself! Let's... make an agreement?"

"Huh?" Zhu Ningning's eyes lit up, "What's the agreement?"

"For half a year, we will work hard! You go and get admitted to the ideal university in your mind, and I will try my best to handle the affairs of Ji's Group! Half a year later...it happens to be summer vacation. We will hand in answer sheets to each other to see if we have achieved what we have now. What are your expectations?"

Zhu Ningning found it very interesting, and her heart was filled with enthusiasm: "Okay! It's a deal!"

Making an agreement, the two looked at each other and smiled.

It was getting late. Although Ji Ze wanted to spend more time with her, it was not good for Zhu Ningning to stay out too late as a girl. In order to prevent her parents from worrying, Ji Ze still held back his reluctance and offered to send her back.

Ningning was independent and could go home by herself, but she couldn't bear Ji Ze's repeated requests and agreed.

The two set off together, and the maid gently opened the glass door of the corridor for them, only to find that they were facing Su Qiao and Jin Hanyue.

The auction was advertised with great fanfare, but it actually ended quickly in only half an hour. It felt like the thunder was loud but the rain was small.

The dignitaries and nobles in the venue had already dispersed, and the reporters and media who came quickly left to finish their work.

Apart from the waiters who were cleaning up the place, the only ones left here were the two girls in gorgeous clothes.

Zhu Ningning didn't expect that they were still here? !

Probably because she had such a happy chat with Ji Ze, she had completely forgotten about them since she entered Jiuzhou Pavilion. Now she was a little surprised to bump into them all of a sudden.

As for Ji Ze, he knew that an auction would be held on the 23rd floor of Yonghuang today. In order to avoid being secretly photographed by the reporters and media accompanying him, he always wore a mask wherever he went. Due to his extremely high awareness of precautions, he didn't speak at all even if they didn't have their mobile phones or cameras with them.

He didn't stop until Ningning stopped and looked at each other in surprise.

The three of them looked at each other, with expressions on their faces that were hesitant to speak. Ji Ze asked softly in a low voice: "Ning Ning, your friend?"

Before Zhu Ningning could reply, Jin Hanyue spoke first: "How can we be worthy of being Zhu Ningning's friends?" She looked at Ningning arrogantly, as if she was caught in bed, with a different kind of cold light shining in her eyes.

These words were so rude that even Ji Ze and Su Qiao, let alone Ning Ning, frowned in turn.

"Hanyue." Su Qiao didn't know who the person standing with Zhu Ningning was, but seeing the other person's extraordinary bearing and lack of confidence, she reminded Jin Hanyue. Unexpectedly, she didn't appreciate it at all and kept walking forward.

"Zhu Ningning, it's not easy to eat a meal for two hours, isn't it?"

She looked up and down at Ji Ze and Ning Ning, with a look of contempt flashing in her eyes, as if they had done something disgusting in front of her.

Zhu Ningning didn't want to argue with her, so she whispered: "Let's go."

Jin Hanyue was not willing to let her go. She stretched out her hand to stop her: "I haven't finished speaking yet. Why are you leaving? You feel guilty, right?! You come here to do that kind of thing secretly. Aren't you afraid that I will tell the teachers and classmates?"
