In the airplane's First Class, when Green Qi saw Xue Yiyang sitting nearby, she, who never believed in coincidences, felt that life could indeed be quite dramatic at times.
She instinctively glanced at the President beside her and noticed that he had also seen Xue Yiyang. His already grim face darkened even further.
On the other hand, Xue Yiyang greeted her with a calm wave, his elegant features showing a bit more maturity after the passage of time, with a faint smile on his lips as if all past unpleasantness and hurt had never existed. This smile was something she could never resist over the years, yet now it felt somewhat ironic to her.
Did he really think everything could be treated as if it had never happened?
"Qiqi, what a coincidence! It seems we are going to the same place!" His clear voice carried an unmistakable joy.
"Such a coincidence!" Sitting by the window, Green Qi glanced at the man beside her, whose expression was not good. She said nothing more and lowered her head to play on her iPad.
At times like this, it was better for her to minimize her presence. She could somewhat guess where the President's anger was coming from.
Mu Tongzi was so clever that even if she didn't say anything, he could tell about her relationship with Xue Yiyang. Although he had never asked her about her past, she felt that he seemed to know everything already.
With both New Flame and old love gathered together, she was the source of trouble as the person involved; it was best to avoid confrontation.
However, as New Flame, Mu Tongzi did not pay her any mind. He simply took out the documents he had brought and began to focus on work.
Seeing him busy with official matters, Green Qi didn’t dare disturb him. She casually played games on her iPad, engrossed in one round after another until she finally lost after seeing another dismal score, feeling frustrated.
The man who had been focused on his documents inadvertently turned his head and saw her frustrated profile. Her bright eyes were glued to the screen, and her long, thick eyelashes fluttered like butterfly wings.
Suddenly, he lost interest in the documents in his hands and watched her play the game.
During their time together, he had somewhat figured out her personality—simple and optimistic, she thought things were straightforward and didn't have the vulgar notions that other women had. He was afraid she wouldn't admire him, and even after learning about his identity, she might want to escape from him. It was precisely because of her uniqueness that he felt a hunting instinct rising within him.
Yet now, he suddenly didn't want to see the results directly; it seemed that the process of hunting was more interesting than the outcome. Besides enjoying that sense of superiority, it also made him start to have certain expectations worth looking forward to.
Another round ended in failure. He glanced at the score on the screen and then at the ranking on the leaderboard, lightly curling his lips: "How can you be so foolish!"
"..." Finally noticing that he was addressing her, Green Qi abruptly turned her head, just in time to meet his dark eyes. She paused slightly, "As a beginner, getting this score is already impressive!"
This was a game similar to Angry Birds; however, her reactions were relatively slow, and she had only been playing for a short while, which is why her score lagged far behind other players on the leaderboard. Although she was reluctant each time, she just couldn't surpass them!
Reaching out, he took the iPad from her hands and lazily said, "Playing such a childish game and only getting this little score means your brain is too slow; it has nothing to do with being a beginner."
"Stop being sarcastic! If you played, you might not even match my score!" She huffed lightly, clearly displeased with his mockery.
