The little girl looked at Liu Zixuan as if he were facing a cunning businessman.
With arms crossed, he asked with a smile, "Even if you catch someone cheating in bed, what are you going to do?"
"Brother Zixuan."
The little girl tugged on Liu Zixuan's arm and said with a grin, "I heard the spokesperson for Xiumei Underwear is Goddess Mengyu. I've always liked her a lot. Could you get me an autograph?"
Oh well, turns out this little girl was waiting here for Liu Zixuan all along!
Liu Zixuan pinched Doudou's cheek, "Getting an autograph is no problem, even a photo together isn't an issue. But she's not in Ghost Wood City at the moment, so we'll have to wait for her to come back!"
"You're lying!" The little girl pouted unhappily.
"How am I lying?" Liu Zixuan was bemused by her accusation.
The little girl fiddled with her phone for a moment and handed it to Liu Zixuan. "See, Goddess Mengyu already returned to Ghost Wood City yesterday, and this morning, Ruyan sent me a WeChat saying she went to the office looking for you!"
Liu Zixuan looked at the headline news on the phone; indeed, Mengyu had returned.
Scratching his head, he said, "I was in the village yesterday, so I didn't know. Tell you what, later I'll head back to the city, and take you along, how does that sound?"
"Really?"
"Truer than pearls!"
"Deal, then I won't tell Sister Ruyan about you being in the same room with Sister Qingning yesterday!" The little girl stuck her tongue out at Liu Zixuan and dashed downstairs.
Liu Zixuan rubbed his forehead and chuckled helplessly. As the saying goes, little children are quite cunning, seems like it's absolutely true!
But it's only been a short while since Mengyu left, and she's already back? Wasn't it said she'd be away for a while to study!
After breakfast, Liu Zixuan took Ying Qingning and Doudou to the city.
Inside Ghost Wood City's Xiumei Underwear Company!
With Doudou's arrival, the place felt exceptionally lively, and since Liu Ruyan hadn't seen her for so long, she kept chatting non-stop.
Meanwhile, Jiang Yiyi sat behind the desk, continuously giving Liu Zixuan odd looks.
Liu Zixuan raised an eyebrow, "What do you mean by that?"
"That beauty just now... what's up with that?"
"She's Brother Zixuan's patient." Doudou eagerly answered for Liu Zixuan.
"Patient? A patient who went back to Lingxiu Village with you?"
Jiang Yiyi asked with an amused smile, "Liu Zixuan, you wouldn't be having other thoughts about her, would you?"
"No thoughts about her, but plenty about you. I wonder if the beautiful Miss Jiang could give me a chance to discuss the topic of love together?"
Liu Zixuan teasingly joked.
"You and your silver tongue." Jiang Yiyi glared at him. "I've already told Mengyu just now that she'll be here soon. Make sure she shoots the promo video soon. The company's all set, just missing this key component!"
"Tsk tsk, you really do have the demeanor of a domineering CEO. You even dare to order me around!"
Liu Zixuan shrugged and didn't continue bantering with Jiang Yiyi, and instead said to Liu Ruyan, "Ruyan, come outside with me for a moment, I have something to tell you!"
Liu Ruyan nodded and followed Liu Zixuan out of the office, overhearing Jiang Yiyi mutter quietly about what kind of secretive matter couldn't be discussed openly...
...
In front of the large window, a ray of sunlight scattered over Liu Ruyan, illuminating her like a fairy!
Liu Zixuan gently held Liu Ruyan's delicate hand, "I just learned some news, not sure if it's good or bad!"
"Is it about me?" Liu Ruyan asked.
"Yes, I might have found your biological parents!"
As Liu Zixuan finished speaking, Liu Ruyan's body trembled slightly, her eyebrows furrowing a bit, "How do you know they're my biological parents?"
"The Ying Qingning who just came with me, don't you think there's a resemblance between you two?" Liu Zixuan asked.
"Her..." Liu Ruyan pondered for a moment, "I don't see it."
Actually, it makes sense. Ying Qingning resembles Liu Ruyan and the beautiful mentor because they've lived with their biological parents for so long, developing some similar traits over time, akin to couples who start to look alike after decades together. This so-called couple resemblance is simply having similar features.
Since Liu Ruyan hadn't seen the beautiful mentor or her biological parents, she naturally couldn't tell if there was a resemblance.
Liu Zixuan paused and said, "Of course, I can't confirm they're your biological parents yet."
"You're saying Ying Qingning is related to my biological parents?" Liu Ruyan asked.
"Exactly, Ying Qingning is the girl adopted by your biological parents." Liu Zixuan scratched his head, "Ruyan, if they really are your biological parents, what would you do?"
This is truly a difficult topic. In Liu Ruyan's memory, her parents were those two from Yuqing City. Although the end was tragic, in her eyes, her real biological parents might hold little emotional significance!
One might even say, there's no emotional connection!
Liu Ruyan slowly leaned against the window, watched the bustling scene outside, and fell silent.
After a while, "Zixuan, what would you do if you were in my shoes?"
"I..." Liu Zixuan raised an eyebrow, "I don't know. Honestly, I have no concept of what parents are!"
"I don't know either. Suddenly being told my biological parents have been found, I don't know how to face it." Liu Ruyan shrugged her tender shoulders, "Let's leave future issues for the future, I just want to live well now."
"To be honest, I'd like to know who they are, and why they left me behind, but it's not about feelings, just a sense of dissatisfaction."
Hearing Liu Ruyan's words, Liu Zixuan nodded, "Alright, let's not worry about it then."
"Okay." Liu Ruyan nodded, "Alright, let's head back to the office. Mengyu should be arriving soon!"
It was indeed timely, as they turned to head back to the office, Mengyu was walking up.
Liu Zixuan smiled, "Mengyu, beautiful as ever, it's been a while!"
"Handsome Liu, still as humorous as ever!" Mengyu chuckled softly.
Today, Mengyu looked exceptionally stunning, wearing a white top with red borders, paired with a supremely short skirt, her slender beautiful legs exposed in the air.
Her fair, tender feet in sandals, the whole person appeared wonderfully cool.
She seemed in a good mood, slowly approaching Liu Zixuan and greeted the two warmly!
"Weren't you studying away, why are you back so soon?" Liu Zixuan asked.
"I need your help with something." Mengyu softly replied.
