C5 An Old Friend

"Actually, I tried to contact you when I left two years ago."

"But I couldn't get through to your phone," Liang Mingzhao said seriously. "I couldn't get in touch with you in the field. " Until last month, I went to your school in America. I went to several battlefields, but I didn't find any news of you. "

At first, he almost thought that she was in trouble, but when he went to the Public Security Bureau to check, no one reported her death, he was relieved.

Yov Yue narrowed her eyes in surprise and her first reaction was to open her mouth, "Is there something you urgently need me for?"

"I was afraid that something would happen to you. I was very afraid." His gaze was sincere and hot, forcing Yov Yue to look at him.

Yov Yue was so shocked that she did not know what to say.

The atmosphere was a little stiff. Liang Mingzhao suddenly laughed and broke the awkwardness, "It's great to see you come back safely. There will be a banquet tomorrow. All the famous people in A City will attend. You just came back and you need to know some people. I happen to be missing a female companion. Shall we go together?"

Yov Yue looked at the man in front of her. It was not that she did not know what he was thinking.

He had a gentle and handsome appearance and an impeccable background, as well as love and care for her...

If it was not for the person she could never forget, Yov Yue thought that Liang Mingzhao might be her best choice.

"Yov Yue?" Seeing that she did not speak, Liang Mingzhao called her.

He always felt that she seemed to be preoccupied with something when they met this time. She was like a taut string.

"Hmm? Okay." Yov Yue came back to her senses.

Liang Mingzhao was relieved. "You don't have to prepare the dress. I'll pick you up when you get off work."

Yov Yue nodded with a smile and softly thanked.

The next day, Liang Mingzhao came to pick her up on time. The car stopped at the entrance of a light luxury dress shop.

Yov Yue entered the door and was led to change into a dress that had been prepared beforehand. She tied her hair into a bun and her hair was braided into a few loose and casual braids. When the makeup artist was about to put on makeup for her, she refused.

"You don't need to give me makeup. That's all." Yov Yue said.

The makeup artist looked at her and smiled. "That's good. You are already very pretty. You must be a beauty who overshadowed everyone."

Yov Yue looked up at herself in the mirror which was almost unfamiliar to her. The black dress covered her entire body and she looked very curvy. Every detail on her body was just right.

She looked at it a few times, got up, opened the door, and walked out, "Let's go."

Liang Mingzhao's eyes lit up. He did not hold back his praise. "You are so beautiful today."

Yov Yue looked down at the dress and smiled. "This dress is very beautiful."

The car arrived at the banquet hall very quickly.

"Tonight is a swimming pool party. Later stay by my side and don't walk around. You don't need to drink." His voice was very gentle.

"Okay." Yov Yue nodded.

In the past, she rarely went to such parties. She only went with Zheng Ting a few times.

Zheng Ting never cared whether she drank or not, but he also would not let others toast to her. As long as he gave her a look, almost no man dared to approach her. She just happened to have some free time. She could eat her own things in the dining area and then wait to go home after the meal.

With a flash of her mind, Yov Yue immediately realized that she had thought of something that she should not have thought of. She shook her head abruptly.

"Doctor Liang, long time no see!" Someone around greeted her, but their eyes were fixed on Yov Yue.

Everyone's eyes focused on her. Yov Yue stepped back and tried to walk under the shadow of the door. She did not want others to notice her existence.

"Only Director Zheng's banquet can invite Doctor Liang. It is really hard to see Doctor Liang." Someone raised his glass and joked.

This sentence made Yov Yue's back stiffen.

What did he just say?

"Liang Mingzhao..." Yov Yue reached out and gently pulled Liang Mingzhao's arm. Sweat had already seeped out from her forehead. "Who did he just say this banquet was organized by?"

Liang Mingzhao smiled and turned his head. Before he could reply, Yov Yue suddenly trembled even more violently.

"What happened to you?" Liang Mingzhao asked.

Yov Yue did not move, as if she had been nailed to the ground.

Liang Mingzhao did not need to answer the question just now. She had already seen it.

Zheng Ting was standing ten meters away. He was wearing a black suit with deep black eyes. His fingers were still long and delicate. He was leaning against the edge of the pool, but he was still the center of everyone's attention.

However, his eyes had already entered her eyes.

Yov Yue's legs were weak. Her fingers slowly slipped from Liang Mingzhao's arms. Her internal organs were all tangled together and blood was rushing to her head.

"Yov Yue?" Liang Mingzhao reached out to hold her and spoke softly. He raised his hand to touch her forehead and asked with concern, "Yov Yue?" Is there something wrong with you? Why are you sweating so much... "

Yov Yue did not dare to look at the pool again. Although it was just a glance, it was enough to confirm that Zheng Ting still had some influence on her.

"I'm fine."

She gently pushed Liang Mingzhao's hand away and forced a smile. "I didn't eat just now. I think it was low blood sugar. You guys talk. I'll eat something to get some air..."

She stopped Liang Mingzhao, who was about to speak, and said, "Don't worry."

Then, she turned around and walked away in a hurry, disappearing from everyone's sight.

She did not walk to the food area. Instead, she wanted to stay away from the pool. She walked straight to the garden and stopped.

There were also some people here who were holding wine cups and chatting. Her footsteps were swaying, and she wanted to find a place where no one was around to alleviate the series of impacts just now. However, the sounds of conversation occasionally entered her ears.

"Say, Director Zheng has been engaged to the daughter of Shen family for four years. There is still no news of them getting married. Do you think they don't intend to get married? Director Zheng is also a fool. If he doesn't eat the fat meat of the Shen family, isn't he afraid that the cooked duck will fly away?"

"Don't talk nonsense! Perhaps it was because they had a good relationship, but they didn't need to get married. It was as if they were married. How can we be clear about these two families..."

A few words entered Yov Yue's ears and hit her heart.

Zheng Ting was not married? It had been four years, why didn't he get married?

Yov Yue shook her head and rubbed her forehead. She turned around and went into the bathroom. She used the cold water on the washing table to wash her arms. She tried to calm herself down, but her fingers were still moving clearly in the water.

"Relax..." She whispered.

Nothing will happen. Zheng Ting might have just turned his eyes away and did not see her at all. What's more, they had not seen each other for four years. They were only partners before, so how could he care about her?

He should have forgotten about her a long time ago. Even if they were face to face, they wouldn't recognize each other.

After washing her hands, Yov Yue calmed down a lot. After taking a deep breath, she turned around and walked out of the washroom towards the garden.

When she turned around, her arm was suddenly pulled by someone. Her body suddenly lost weight and fell to one side.

"Ah!" She called out in a low voice. The familiar fragrance instantly invaded her nostrils.

This smell is...

Before she could even raise her head, her body was shaking uncontrollably.
