Little Qi did not say anything.
When Yan Zhen saw this, she could not help but laugh. “No matter how handsome he is, he’s still a heartbreaker. Hehe, let’s go. It’s fine if we don’t meet my friend.”
“Why shouldn’t we meet him?” Little Qi turned her gaze away and pretended as if nothing had happened.
“Don’t try to be brave.” Yan Zhen exposed her. “All these years, who have you turned yourself into? Is it worth it? Look at He Yanzhi. He has so many underlings behind him. If he really remembers you, why didn’t he look for you? Wan Wan, wake up. You’re Sheng Xiao’s daughter. What kind of man can’t you have?”
Little Qi felt her throat burning, and even her breathing became extremely heavy.
“This is my fault. Why am I meeting my online friend all of a sudden?” After saying that, Yan Zhen dragged Little Qi out of the hotel.
When they returned to the garage and saw the motorcycle in there, Little Qi felt her cheeks burning as if someone had slapped her.
She then called Cheng Hui. “Uncle Hui, come and pick me up.”
“And the motorcycle?” Yan Zhen asked her.
“Returning it to the person who gave it to me,” Little Qi only said those words.
The Rolls-Royce stopped at the entrance of the hotel. Little Qi threw the keys into the trash can and stepped into her car.
It had been five years.
It would be fine if he were dead, but she suddenly felt like she could not accept that He Yanzhi was still alive and that he did not look for her.
Since he was still alive, then the things that she had been guarding for five years were meaningless.
Therefore, she decisively threw away the motorcycle that He Yanzhi had given her, including the phone that she had used for five years.
She wanted to be herself again.
On the way back, Little Qi did not say a word. Cheng Hui looked at her through the rearview mirror. After a long while, he said, “Miss, this is probably the last time I will pick you up.”
When Little Qi heard this, she looked at Cheng Hui in surprise. “Uncle Hui, are you going to leave me too?”
“Miss, this is Sir’s arrangement. There will be a new bodyguard to take over tomorrow. I… want to get married and start a family,” Cheng Hui said helplessly. “All these years, you and Sir have taken care of me. I know this, but my mother is old and needs her son by her side. So, after much consideration, I finally decided to return to her side. There is no banquet that does not end. I hope that everything will go smoothly in the future, Miss.”
Little Qi remained silent.
When they reached the entrance of the Banyan Courtyard, she asked Cheng Hui as she choked up, “Do you have enough money? My father…”
“Sir has given me a generous salary. All these years, he has never mistreated me.”
Little Qi opened her mouth but could not say anything. She could only say, “Then this is it, Uncle Hui. Everything will go well.”
Cheng Hui looked at Little Qi’s frail back and felt a little sorry for her.
He was not actually resigning. He was going to be transferred.
Initially, this matter was only happening next year. However, Sheng Xiao suddenly had other arrangements, so Cheng Hui’s transfer came early.
Cheng Hui did not know who Little Qi’s new bodyguard was, but he hoped that she would be healthy and happy in the future.
That night was a very difficult one for Little Qi.
First, seeing He Yanzhi again. Second, the bodyguard who had taken care of her for so many years had left. Little Qi locked herself in the study the entire night.
The next morning, she shook off those things and put on her high school uniform again.
However, before she went to school, she saw Master Xiao waiting for her in the dining room.
“Dad.”
“The new bodyguard is reporting for duty downstairs. This time, you don’t have to worry that he will leave halfway.” Master Xiao seemed to know what she was suffering from and comforted her gently.
“Okay.” Little Qi nodded slightly. After eating breakfast, she took her school bag and prepared to go to school. However, the moment she opened the car door, she was stunned.
