Cherish words like gold, concise and clear.
Gan Yuan moved her gaze away from the information on the screen, raised her phone, and sent a short video in reply.
Her heart was pounding; she had a strong desire to share all this with him.
The man’s message came back.
"Of course, wait for me a bit!"
Gan Yuan got up from her chair and went down with several organizers to present awards to King’s Team, then she smiled and congratulated them, making a special mention of "Flyer Robin."
In the end, she also took a group photo with all the members of King’s Team.
After the award ceremony, she left the scene and sent that photo to Huangfu Jue again.
As soon as the photo was sent, the man’s call came through.
"Did you see the photo? The person standing next to me is Robin, so handsome!"
"I’m not talking about his looks, I mean the way he plays polo..."
"A reckless player with no tactics to speak of!"
"How could that be, you didn’t see the last goal just now..."
The man interrupted her, his tone revealing a hint of anger, "Don’t mention him again!"
She paused, then burst into laughter.
"Ajue, are you jealous?"
The man didn’t deny it, "Obviously!"
Her laughter grew even stronger, "Ajue, you... are so cute!"
Nobody had used such a descriptor for him since he was three, and if anyone else did, he would only take it as mockery.
But she was an exception.
The man on the other end of the phone fell silent for a moment.
Because of her praise, he could forgive her for taking a group photo with Robin and the others.
"Thank you!" Gan Yuan nodded gently to Charlie, who was holding the car, then lowered herself into the back seat, "So... Should someone who just got jealous get back to work?"
Huangfu Jue hung up the phone and pulled up the photo again, looking at Robin, who was standing next to Gan Yuan. He lightly maneuvered his phone to crop out everyone but her from the photo and then lifted the corners of his lips contentedly at her image on the phone.
Jenny hurried to the emergency department and began inquiring around.
"Are you looking for Miss Nancy?" a man in black approached her proactively.
"Yes, yes, who are you..."
"Come with me!" The man in black turned and walked away, and Jenny, assuming he was Nancy’s bodyguard, hurried after him.
She followed him through the corridor, out the back door of the emergency department, and began to look around confusedly.
"Isn’t she in the emergency department?"
The man in black grabbed her arm, and by the time Jenny realized she wanted to scream, she had already been thrown into the back seat of a car.
The man knocked her out with a blow to the head, threw her aside, casually pulled a suit jacket over her face, took out a cell phone, and dialed a number.
"Please convey to the gentleman that the person he wants is on the way."
The black car drove out of the hospital with Jenny inside, merged onto the fast lane, and quickly vanished into the traffic.
By the time Jenny was jolted awake with cold water, an hour had passed.
She opened her eyes and took a while to adjust to the light in front of her.
He was handsome, with a touch of delicacy in his features, and a pair of deep black eyes without a trace of warmth, like black holes, like an abyss, chilling to the bone.
"You..." Jenny recognized him as somewhat familiar, then remembered, he was the man who had been standing outside the restroom with Gan Yuan, "What... what do you want to do?!"
