Jiangcheng, cafe.

Shi Xiangyou was sitting by the window, tapping on the computer with his fingers. He had the aura of a man of power that had gone through the years, and his profile was elegant.

In the past thirty years, Shi Xiangyou has watched the changes of the times and the ups and downs of life.

The past is like smoke, all gone with the wind.

After receiving a call from Zheng Qiling, Fu Jiadi came here with an uneasy mood. When he saw Shi Xiangyou's figure from outside the cafe, he felt sour and excited at the same time.

How could she have imagined that her father, who had disappeared for so many years, was actually Tokiyoshi Tokiyomi in Kyoto!

That is the head of a noble family, an outstanding politician, and one who is on par with the Zheng family!

Fu Jiadi never dared to think so in her wildest dreams until Zheng Qiling told her the matter.

Why did he abandon their mother and daughter? And why didn't he look for her for so many years?

Fu Jiadi had many questions in her mind. After spending such a long time trying to understand him, she did not recognize him rashly. Now she finally has the opportunity.

She is originally a daughter of an aristocratic family, so her birth should be extremely noble!

When she wants to go back to Shi's home, she no longer has to please those old men or live broadcast. Qiao Mu Ningning will never be able to compare with her!

When the time comes, she will be able to match Zheng Qiling's brother and no longer have to worry about not being good enough for him.

Just thinking about it, Fu Jiadi was so excited that goosebumps appeared all over her body. She stared closely at the figure there, picked up the mirror, and saw a face that was very similar to her mother. She had deliberately put on similar makeup today.

Zheng Qiling told her that Shi Xiangyou came to Jiangcheng on a business trip and would spend time here on weekend afternoons.

The man sat there across the window, his expression obscured by the light, as if he had never seen him before.

Fu Jiadi took a deep breath and walked straight in. When she passed by Xiangyou, she stumbled and fell onto the table, exclaiming.

"You didn't—"

Shi Xiangyou supported her, his pupils shrank slightly, and he could see that face clearly.

In a daze, it seemed that the woman was standing in front of him, smiling sweetly!

"Thank you." Fu Jiadi breathed a sigh of relief and sat across from him, "Sir, let me buy you a cup of coffee."

When she spoke, she put her hands together on the table. The diamond ring she wore was beautiful and exquisite, exactly the same as the ring worn by Shi Xiangyou.

Shi Xiangyou stared at the ring, looked at the girl opposite carefully, and blurted out: "What is your relationship with Fu Xue?"

The trembling voice revealed the turbulence inside.

"Fu Xue is my mother, do you know my mother?" Fu Jiadi pretended not to know anything, treating all this as a coincidence, and her expression changed from surprise to sadness.

"I haven't seen my mother since I was born. I grew up with my grandma and have never seen my father..."

The voice gradually became distorted, and it was filled with sobs and sadness.

Her heart was beating wildly, filled with extreme excitement, and she couldn't wait to become the daughter of a real aristocratic family.

Shi Xiangyou was so shocked that he lost his voice.

There was no news about Fu Xueyao, who had been missing for many years. News about her appeared in front of him again, and it turned out to be because of her daughter!

"Where is your mother? Where is she?!" Shi Xiangyou tried his best to control his emotions so as not to make his voice hoarse.

"When my mother gave birth to me, she suffered an acute hemorrhage and passed away without resuscitation." Fu Jiadi's tears finally overflowed from her eyes and gurgled down.

Shi Xiangyou tightened his palms and was suddenly overwhelmed by great grief.

"I harmed your mother. Without me, your mother would have lived a comfortable and happy life."

He looked at the person in front of him, the familiar appearance, and the eyebrows that were very similar to his own, and suddenly an absurd possibility came to mind.

Old things come to mind again.

…

Kyoto.

The sky is dark gray, with layers of dark clouds covering the sky.

The banquet and the mingling of wine and glasses are different from the bleak and cold weather outside.

Recently, two political figures have arrived in Kyoto. They are over fifty and powerful.

It was a private banquet. There were not many people at the banquet. They were all politicians and acquaintances. Picking out any one of them and stamping their feet could make Kyoto shake.

Mr. Shi had some friendship with them in the past and wanted to introduce Shi Jingnian.

Such an occasion was extremely important. He wore a formal suit and tie, was polite and strict, handsome and ascetic, and nodded to say hello to them.

The two of them are several times older than Shi Jingnian. He respects them as real elders.

"You are to be feared in the future, and you are to be feared in the future." The old gentleman sighed with a smile, his eyebrows and eyes were full of power.

At this time, Shi Jingnian's phone rang. He lowered his eyes and hung up. The other party called again. Unless it was a big deal, Zheng Xingzhou would not call twice in a row.

He calmly walked to a place where no one was around and answered the phone. He raised his hand and pressed his eyebrows, his face was clear and cold: "What's the matter?"

The next second, his face completely darkened, and he accidentally knocked over one of the wine glasses. The red wine spilled on the floor, like blood from a broken cocoon, and the scene was in a mess!

"Please clean up." Shi Jingnian had no intention of worrying about this matter. He only had time to say a hasty word to the waiter and quickly returned to the banquet with a brisk pace.

He walked straight towards Mr. Shi and the two old gentlemen. The other party was obviously very interested in chatting, but he had no choice but to interrupt directly: "Sorry——"

The man apologized quickly and calmly, and succinctly asked to leave the scene because of something. The calmness on his face made it easy for people to ignore his chaotic breathing rhythm.

Mr. Shi glared at Shi Jingnian, gritted his teeth and pressed his shoulder, keeping his voice extremely low.

"I don't care what's wrong with you now, leaving now is just a slap in the Shi family's face——!"

The atmosphere became condensed for a short time, and they watched Shi Jingnian apologize again and leave, their steps somewhat panicked.

He has always been a decent and rational person who understands the general situation and considers the overall situation.

This is the first time that I have shamed others in front of everyone.

It was clearly eight or nine o'clock, but it felt like it was about to get dark. The wind was howling on the street, making the leaves rustle, and the traffic was somewhat blocked.

Shi Jingnian drove all the way out of the hotel parking lot, holding the steering wheel with one hand and honking the horn anxiously with the other hand, so that the continuous sound was a bit sharp and cut through the gloomy sky.

He looked at the car in front of him, his chest heaving, his heart upset, his face dark and ugly, and he kept calling Ji Ning'an.

The number in the address book has not been dialed since two and a half years ago, but now it has been dialed again and again, and there is a cold shutdown sound coming from the phone.

He called Ji Ning'an's father again and asked where she was now.

Ji's father answered blankly that she went to work in a milk tea shop. It seemed that she didn't know about the car accident.
