Taking the materials back to her workstation, Ruan Xiya took a deep breath, adjusted her mood, and immersed herself in her work.

Xu Jie threw the documents on the table, looked at Ruan Xiya who was working hard, and twitched the corners of her mouth mockingly.

Hmph, what to pretend.

She obviously asked for sick leave, but she didn't have any wounds on her body, and even Lu Xinyao, the female devil, helped Ruan Xiya lie, it's really ridiculous.

Scanning the documents irritably, Xu Jie frowned displeasedly remembering her last business trip to City C.

It was such a bad job, yet Ruan Xiya agreed to it so simply, how stupid.

Ruan Xiya, who worked hard, didn't know the little Jiujiu in Xu Jie's heart.

For this business trip, she was indeed a little happy.

Since He Jingyuan disappeared, she really wanted to look around to see if there were any clues.

But Shen Jingjia and Shen Muyang regarded her very strictly, even if she went out to buy something, Shen Jingjia would follow her all the way, and she couldn't bear to make Shen Jingjia worry anymore.

……

After dinner, Ruan Xiya lazily nestled on the sofa, took a peek at Shen Jingjia, and said casually, "I'm going on a business trip to City C the day after tomorrow."

"boom--"

Hearing this, the water glass in Shen Jingjia's hand suddenly hit the ground, glass shards and water splashed everywhere.

Ruan Xiya glanced suspiciously at Shen Jingjia, who was in a hurry to clean up, and twisted her fingers uneasily, "Jingjia, I know you are worried about me, but the company wants to send me on a business trip, and I can't refuse."

Shen Jingjia paused holding the broom, covering the shock in her eyes, and looked carefully at Ruan Xiya, "Xia, is it true that the company sent you there?"

Ruan Xiya lowered her eyelids, feeling very wronged.

She knew that Shen Jingjia was worried about her, but she never thought that Shen Jingjia would doubt what she said.

As soon as the words came out of her mouth, Shen Jingjia knew she had said the wrong thing.

But thinking of Shen Muyang's previous phone call, Shen Jingjia couldn't stop thinking about it.

Before Ruan Xiya came back, Shen Muyang called and said that He Jingyuan might return to City C.Before she could digest the news, Ruan Xiya told her that she was going on a business trip to City C.

Such a weird synchronization, she couldn't help but think about it.

Ruan Xiya bit her lips and looked at Shen Jingjia's silence, thinking that Shen Jingjia was really angry, she got up anxiously and grabbed Shen Jingjia's wrist.

"Jingjia, don't be angry, I promise you, I will not stay in City C for too long."

Knowing that Ruan Xiya was worried that she would be angry, Shen Jingjia heaved a sigh of relief, cleaned up the glass shards on the ground, and hugged Ruan Xiya.

"Shiya, I'm not angry. You can go on a business trip. I just want to go back to see grandma, so I can go with you."

Ruan Xiya patted Shen Jingjia on the back and sighed deeply.

Ever since she learned the news of He Jingyuan's disappearance, both Shen Jingjia and Shen Muyang were too worried about her.

Thinking of Shen Jingjia and Shen Muyang guarding her day and night at the beginning, she felt guilty.

"Jingjia, you really don't need to worry about me so much. I'm an adult and I know how to take care of myself."

Hearing this, Shen Jingjia's eyes turned red, "Xia, I'm just worried, just worried..."

Thinking of what Ruan Xiya said that happened that day, Shen Jingjia's heart throbbed in pain.

Almost half a month had passed since Ruan Xiya's accident, but they still couldn't find out who those people were.

Thinking of someone trying to kill Ruan Xiya, Shen Jingjia lost a lot of hair anxiously.

"Jingjia, you really don't need to spend all your time and energy on me. You also have your own life, so you don't have to do it for me..."

Ruan Xiya's voice became smaller and smaller as she spoke, until she finally lost her voice.

Shen Jingjia tightened her hands distressedly, and remained silent without opening her mouth.

……

In the end, Shen Jingjia went to City C with Ruan Xiya.

When she saw Shen Muyang on the plane, Ruan Xiya twitched the corners of her mouth, pulled Shen Jingjia's sleeve, and asked softly in her ear: "Why is Muyang here?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Muyang turned his head and looked over, showing a gentle smile to Ruan Xiya.

Ruan Xiya glared at Shen Jingjia with a headache, "Jingjia, I'm on a business trip, not a trip!"

Shen Jingjia turned her head to look at Shen Muyang who was looking out the window, and stroked her forehead helplessly, "Xia, I really didn't tell him about your business trip, and I don't know why he came with you."

Reluctantly returning to her seat, Ruan Xiya took a sip of water and closed her eyes.

"Xia, is Mu Yang going to City C too?"

Xu Jie looked back at Shen Muyang, and pulled Ruan Xiya's sleeve curiously.

Ruan Xiya twitched the corners of her mouth in embarrassment, and gave a low "hmm".

Lu Xinyao, who had been silent all this time, looked back at Shen Muyang calmly, with a meaningful smile on the corner of her mouth.

……

After getting off the plane, the Shen family's car was already waiting at the airport.

"Shia, let's go first."

Shen Jingjia waved to Ruan Xiya, and got into the car with Shen Muyang.

Ruan Xiya nodded and watched the car leave the airport.

"Director, how do we get to the hotel?"

Hearing Xu Jie's voice, Ruan Xiya turned her head to look at Lu Xinyao, wondering why Lu Xinyao didn't prepare the car in advance this time.

In fact, Xu Jie was also very puzzled by this point. She looked at Ruan Xiya suspiciously, and couldn't help but make up her mind.

Could it be that during this time, Ruan Xiya did something out of the ordinary?

Speaking of which, she hadn't seen Yi Hao show affection to Ruan Xiya again for a long time.

"I called Didi, and the driver will be there in 10 minutes. Please wait patiently."

Lu Xinyao waved the phone at Ruan Xiya and Xu Jie.

After arriving at the hotel and putting down their luggage, Lu Xinyao took Ruan Xiya and Xu Jie and set off again.

After running around City C for two days, Ruan Xiya was so busy that she didn't touch the ground, she couldn't even think about He Jingyuan's affairs.

On the afternoon of the third day, Lu Xinyao finally announced that the business trip had been dealt with, and asked them if they wanted to go back to City A together.

Just as Ruan Xiya was about to nod, the phone rang suddenly.

Helplessly, she smiled apologetically at Lu Xinyao, and she went to the window to answer the phone.

"Jingjia?"

"Xia, do you have time to have dinner together tonight?"

Ruan Xiya smiled and joked: "You really know how to pick your time, the director just gave us a vacation."

Shen Jingjia laughed happily from the other side of the phone, "That's good, you can send me your location, and we will pick you up later."

"okay."

After hanging up the phone, Ruan Xiya smiled embarrassedly at Lu Xinyao, "Director, I'm really sorry, my friend has something to ask me, so I won't go back with you today."

Lu Xinyao nodded, then turned to look at Xu Jie, waiting for Xu Jie's answer.

Xu Jie looked at Ruan Xiya expectantly, waiting for Ruan Xiya to ask her to go with her.
