Three years after our breakup, my ex-boyfriend dragged me to get our marriage certificate.

Lin Qingyi breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

At least for now, I can rest assured that Lu Cheng really has no other feelings for her.

"Now you can finally relax, right?" Lu Cheng patted her shoulder helplessly.

"But..." Lin Qingyi hesitated, then stopped herself, "Never mind."

What she originally wanted to say was that Tian Tian's biological mother had the right to know about Tian Tian's existence.

But on second thought, she also deprived others of their right to know.

Lu Cheng looked at her thoughtfully, but didn't say anything more. The two then talked about their plans to go abroad.

After playing with her two children until they were tired, Wenya and her group went back to the hotel together.

Sweetie's hair was disheveled by the seawater, so Lin Qingyi casually braided it into a pigtail for her.

The little girl ran ahead happily, and Wenya hurriedly chased after her.

As for Xiaoyundou, she was extremely excited in Lu Cheng's arms.

At the corner of the elevator, Ji Yuhuai suddenly appeared out of nowhere, ignoring the surprised looks of the people around him, and directly grabbed Lin Qingyi's arm and walked to the side.

The smile on Lin Qingyi's face froze the moment she saw him.

"Lin Qingyi, what exactly do you want?" Ji Yuhuai stared intently at her, his chest heaving violently.

He grabbed her wrist and said urgently, "I've taken over the Ji family now, and I have plenty of money."

Whatever you want, whatever you want to do, I can do it for you.

I don't want to see you demeaning yourself like this anymore.

Lin Qingyi frowned, glanced at her wrist that was being held, and instead of struggling, calmly spoke.

"You're the one humiliating me," Lin Qingyi sighed softly and shook off his hand.

"When we broke up, we made it very clear that you were the one who suggested it, that we would never see each other again."

You're appearing in front of me so often now, interfering in my life.

Ji Yuhuai.

You're a man, you wouldn't go back on your word, would you?

Ji Yuhuai wanted to say he regretted it. He never intended to push her away; he just wanted an explanation from her.

He doesn't even want to know her attitude towards him anymore.

As long as she's still willing to be with me, that's enough.

"Lin Qingyi, he is 10 years older than you, or even more, and he has a child."

Ji Yuhuai took a deep breath and whispered a reminder.

"So what? At least he's emotionally stable, charismatic, and capable."

Lin Qing looked at him as if he were looking at an unreasonable stranger.

"It is my freedom to be with whomever I want."

If you come to me again and act crazy...

I don't mind letting him cause some trouble for the Ji family, keeping you busy.

"You know I don't care about the Ji family at all. Even if the Ji family disappears from this world, so what?"

Ji Yuhuai smiled. Threatening him with the thing he cared about least? That was pointless.

"The Ji family business is yours; it's the foundation upon which you depend for survival," Lin Qingyi interrupted him. "I hope you can think rationally and not do anything foolish."

"But without you, nothing in this world means anything to me."

Ji Yuhuai stopped dwelling on that damned pride and male ego.

He was like a humble suitor, lacking even the courage to win her back.

"Shouldn't these words be said to Jiang Wenxi?" Lin Qingyi sneered.

"..." Ji Yuhuai remained silent.

Lin Qingyi turned around, entered the elevator, and disappeared from his sight.

Worried about unforeseen circumstances and the possibility of Ji Yuhuai suddenly appearing again, Lin Qingyi moved up her plans to go abroad.

Originally, I wanted to leave Tiantian with Wenya, since the two aunties were there and could help Wenya take care of Tiantian and Xiaoyundou.

But with two children, she was worried she might not be able to manage, so she took Tian Tian with her and went abroad.

Lu Cheng has many friends abroad, but he has lost contact with his relatives and friends in China, so he doesn't have anyone he can trust to take care of Tian Tian.

The three people headed to the international airport.

It was Sweetie's first time going abroad, and she was very excited the whole way.

In the waiting area, Lin Qingyi chatted with her, and to keep her from getting bored, she sat with her on the suitcase and walked around.

Lu Cheng watched them from the side, his heart pounding in his chest, afraid that the suitcases would trip them up.

Lin Qingyi put away her playful mood, took Tian Tian's hand and walked forward. When she looked up, she saw a familiar figure that she hadn't seen for a long time.

Ji Shi'an...

Lin Qingyi pursued Ji Shi'an not because she liked him.

It was because after the Lin family went bankrupt, she stayed at the Ji family's place and always felt like she had nowhere to go.

Ji Shi'an was a few years older than her, steady and outstanding, making him the best marriage choice.

At that time, she was already weighing the pros and cons.

She knew He Ling didn't like her, so she never even considered marrying He Ling's only son, Ji Yuhuai.

Ji Shi'an's mother is not Ji Kun's ex-wife.

To be precise, Ji Shi'an's mother was merely Ji Kun's mistress, who bore him two children without any official status.

Therefore, the existence of Ji Shi'an and his sister was a great disgrace to He Ling.

In ancient times, the children of a concubine were older than the children of the legal wife.

But just when she discovered the existence of Ji Shi'an and his sister, Ji Kun had already made the Ji family powerful and influential.

The entire He family has already tied their fates tightly to Ji Kun.

So it's all in vain for her to divorce Ji Kun or drive the two children away, because Ji Kun has already gained the power to speak.

These things were all pieced together by Lin Qingyi.

Ji Shi'an clearly didn't expect to run into Lin Qingyi here.

The man and child standing next to Lin Qingyi filled him with even more doubts.

Lin Qingyi, as usual, called him Brother Shi'an, greeted him, and exchanged a few pleasantries.

However, when Ji Shi'an introduced Zhang Yizhen, who was standing next to him, to her, she was clearly somewhat lost in thought.

Lin Qingyi followed her gaze and saw that the other woman's eyes were fixed on Lu Cheng's face.

As a woman, she understood all too well the emotions in Zhang Yizhen's eyes.

Since it was time to check in, they didn't want to exchange pleasantries any longer. After a quick greeting, the three of them went straight inside.

"Is it her?" Lin Qingyi asked.

Lu Cheng did not deny it, but silently watched the receding figure.

"This world is really too small," Lin Qingyi couldn't help but exclaim.

She finally understood why Lu Cheng had been so devastated back then.

Even if Zhang Yizhen's family background were as prestigious as the He family's, it would still be considered a step up for him.

Ji Shi'an being able to be with Zhang Yizhen is considered by outsiders to be incredibly lucky.

Not to mention Lu Cheng, the penniless young man from back then.

"She and Ji Shi'an are getting engaged this time they're back, and they'll probably get married by the end of the year."

Lin Qingyi kindly reminded her, "If you have something you want to say to her, you can talk to her. I'll get her contact information for you."
