The next day, Raymond went out and didn't come back until very late. The table full of dishes prepared by Ji Ai'er had all gone cold, and she waited until she fell asleep lying on the dining table.
After Raymond came back and saw Ji Ai'er sleeping on the dining table, he remembered that she told him last night that she was going to cook today. He looked at the dishes on the table and felt a little sorry. He broke his promise.
Raymond asked his assistant to take his things to his study. He then bent down, carefully picked up Ji Ai'er, carried her back to her room, and covered her with a quilt. She was so light that he felt as if he was holding her soul rather than her body.
Raymond returned to his room and it was already two o'clock in the morning after taking a bath. Today he couldn't sleep because the last clue about his sister was also broken.
He sat on the sofa, drinking red wine, and his face looked solemn.
I don't know how long it had passed, the mobile phone rang. It was from Enrico, his younger half-brother. His younger brother never cared about what time it was. As long as he was happy, he would call at any time.
"Has the sister been found?" Enrico asked on the other end of the phone.
"No!" This was the reason why he was still awake now.
"Then when will you come back? I'm going crazy! Come back and clean up the mess quickly!" When Raymond left Italy, he transferred all the matters at hand to Enrico for full authority to handle. But although his younger brother had business talent, he wasn't interested in doing business at all. This was why he was going crazy now.
"I might not be that fast!" Raymond rubbed his eyebrows and said.
"What? What do you mean not that fast? You won't stay for another three to five months, will you?" Enrico jumped up and said.
"It's very possible!" Because now he met a girl who made him have a feeling of heartbeat.
"Big brother, don't scare me! If it's really not possible, you come back to work and I'll go find the sister!" In this way, he could also take the opportunity to sneak out and play.
"You handle the official business first. I can consider giving you a one-week vacation." Raymond said.
"It's a deal!" Enrico hung up the phone after saying that.
Raymond shook his head with a smile. Enrico was two years younger than him and grew up under his protection. He never suffered much, so he couldn't tolerate the high-load and high-pressure life in the business world at all.
By the time Raymond rested, it was already sunrise.
Autumn Tour of曲River Alone - Li Shangyin
When the lotus leaves emerged, spring grief emerged; when the lotus leaves withered, autumn grief formed.
Deeply knowing that as long as I'm alive, love will persist. Sorrowfully, I gaze at the river at the head of the river and listen to its flow.
