The Bodyguard King’s CEO Wife Chapter 1822: The Three Meet
Previously on The Bodyguard King’s CEO Wife...
It’s normal for Zhuang Yan to think this way. She’s an ordinary person, with the mindset of an ordinary woman. At this moment, Su Qingyu should be in the office sticking pins into a model doll of Ye Shikai. If Ye Shikai were to go in like this, the two would definitely "kick off".
However, Zhuang Yan was mistaken this time. Su Qingyu knew the reason for the divorce with Ye Shikai. Although she was quite resentful at first, the reality was laid out before her, and she could only choose to accept it. After Ye Shikai disappeared last time, Su Qingyu was very worried, but she couldn’t really help with anything and could only be anxious, until she received news from Zhang Ting, saying he appeared in Linxian, and she immediately took a plane and rushed over.
"Alright, the president has agreed. You can go in now."
Ye Shikai pushed open the office door. Su Qingyu was standing by the window. Seeing his arrival, a slight excitement appeared on her face.
"Qingyu."
"You’re here, huh? Want something to drink?"
"Coffee, please."
The two sat on the sofa. Although they appeared calm on the surface, their racing heartbeats couldn’t deceive anyone. Even though they were divorced and had not seen each other for a long time, they knew each other too well; just one sentence could convey their inner thoughts.
"Qingyu, last time in Linxian, you really went out of your way. You came so far." Ye Shikai looked at Su Qingyu, inadvertently thinking of He Linghan again. The two women were almost carved from the same mold, but they were ultimately not the same person. She is Su Qingyu, not He Linghan...
"Actually, it’s nothing. After you disappeared, everyone was very worried." Su Qingyu recalled what Zhang Ting mentioned last time about Ye Shikai’s time-traveling. She still found it hard to comprehend. She knew that cultivators could achieve many things ordinary people couldn’t, but time travel was something that only existed in science fiction. It was really hard for her to grasp.
"You said you time-traveled. Can you tell me about it?" Su Qingyu handed him the coffee. Ye Shikai seemed a bit guilty. If Su Qingyu knew he married a woman who looked exactly like her in ancient times, who knows how she’d react.
"This thing is quite mystical. I was worried you wouldn’t believe it. Do you still remember the last time you went to the Holy Mountain?"
"Of course, I almost died there." Su Qingyu certainly remembered. The first time she went to the Holy Mountain, it was Ailina who took her up there, just to find Ye Shikai. But she almost died under Zeus’s sword instead.
"Frankly, I’ve been to the Holy Mountain several times, but I’ve never encountered anything like this. So when he time-traveled back, he was utterly confused."
"What did you do during the Qin Dynasty?" Su Qingyu’s eyebrows slightly trembled. A modern person returning to such a war-torn era, surviving was already a miracle, let alone that at that time, Ye Shikai’s Dantian was destroyed, and he had no Inner Strength. Su Qingyu couldn’t imagine what might have happened.
"It was mostly fighting wars." Ye Shikai recounted his experiences to Su Qingyu, but he glossed over the war scenes. Those images were too gruesome; if you weren’t there to experience it firsthand, it was hard to imagine. He also didn’t want Su Qingyu to know.
"Did you get hurt?"
"Don’t worry, it’s nothing serious." Ye Shikai waved his hand.
"By the way, I remember you said that after you went back to the Qin Dynasty, you got married, right?"
"Ahem, that did happen." Ye Shikai did not deny it. He’s not the type to enjoy lying.
"What kind of woman is she after all?" Su Qingyu seemed intrigued. Though Ye Shikai was surrounded by women, he was not a casual person. To marry him, she could not have been an ordinary woman.
"Well..." Ye Shikai was at a loss for words. To be precise, he didn’t know whether he should introduce He Linghan.
"If you don’t want to talk about it, just forget it." Su Qingyu seemed to understand his thoughts and immediately changed the topic, giving him an out.
"Qingyu, I came here to thank you this time." After a long silence, Ye Shikai suddenly said.
"Nothing to thank for; we’re friends now, aren’t we?"
"Sort of...I guess."
Thump, thump, thump.
"Please come in," Su Qingyu said lightly, and Zhuang Yan walked in from outside.
"Zhuang Yan, is there something you need?"
"President Su, Miss Ji wants to see you," Zhuang Yan replied.
"What, she’s here too?" Upon hearing this, Ye Shikai instinctively stood up. How could Ji Qian come here? Could it be... following Ye Shikai’s car all the way here? That should not be possible. Ji Qian has been avoiding meeting him recently, and he is also avoiding Ji Qian. Moreover, this is the Tianya Group, and Su Qingyu is here.
"I forgot to tell you, I had an appointment to meet with Miss Ji here today," Su Qingyu explained.
"What." Ye Shikai never imagined such a coincidence. Last time on Kunlun Mountain, Ji Qian destroyed the energy mass, causing him to never return. Although Ye Shikai has forgiven her, the two haven’t seen each other in a long time, mainly to avoid the awkwardness of meeting...
"Are you alright?" Su Qingyu was still unaware of the "subtle changes" in the relationship between him and Ji Qian, so she asked Zhuang Yan to invite her in. Ye Shikai had no choice but to face it. Just as Ji Qian entered, she saw him, and her face instantly stiffened.
"Qian." Ye Shikai stepped forward to greet her.
"Why are you here too?" Ji Qian obviously hadn’t expected Ye Shikai to be at Tianya Group and meet here. She wasn’t worried about Ye Shikai developing a rift with her because of what happened last time, but because when they meet, she doesn’t know what to say. In that case, it’s better not to meet.
"Perfect timing, come and sit." Su Qingyu warmly invited, and the relationship among the three felt somewhat awkward, especially face to face. Even Su Qingyu noticed that something seemed to have happened between Ji Qian and Ye Shikai before.
"Qingyu, here’s the report you wanted; I brought it for you." Ji Qian took a document out of her bag, finally breaking the standstill atmosphere.
"By the way, Ji Qian, do you know about his time travel?" Su Qingyu suddenly asked. Upon hearing this, Ji Qian’s palm went slack, and the document fell to the ground.
"I know, he told me about it," Ji Qian continued, "Although it sounds absurd, many things can’t be explained by science. I didn’t believe in time travel before either."
"Did you know he married a girl there?" Su Qingyu continued to ask. Now it was Ji Qian’s turn to be at a loss for words. If she told the truth, she would inevitably have to talk about He Linghan...
