There is a coffee shop with retro decoration on the corner of the street. When you walk in, you will have a sense of time and space disorder. It is named "timecoffee".

Xu Jing sat in the coffee shop, savoring the freshly brewed hand-ground coffee carefully.

Gu Ziqi pushed the door open, and saw Xu Jing at a glance, with a smile on his face.

He pulled away the chair, sat down in front of Xu Jing familiarly, looked around, and couldn't help wondering, "That clingy Qin Ming didn't come with you?"

"Well, he's been busy recently." Xu Jing answered unhurriedly.

In fact, she did not tell Qin Ming about her meeting with Gu Ziqi alone.

After all, as long as Shao Yichen is mentioned, someone will go crazy.

"I invite you here today, mainly because I want to ask you to help me with one thing."

"What's the matter?" The smile on Gu Ziqi's face didn't diminish.

"Have you ever heard of a woman named Qiaoman?"

The movements of Gu Ziqi's hands stopped suddenly, and he looked up at her, "Ask her what to do?"

"She has been missing for many years, and there is no news of her. I was entrusted by someone to investigate her whereabouts." Xu Jing said truthfully.

Gu Ziqi put down the coffee in his hand and spoke slowly.

"I just heard that she had a past with her uncle. It was because of her that my uncle never married. After she disappeared, the family didn't dare to mention it in front of him for fear of his uncle's sadness."

"However, someone saw Gu Yanming at the last place where she disappeared."

Gu Ziqi hummed lightly, "Of course my uncle would not sit idly by when he heard the news of her disappearance. It's just that he led people to search inside and out for three days, but he still couldn't find her."

Xu Jing frowned slightly, thought for a while, and continued, "Then can you help me find it?"

A smile appeared on Gu Ziqi's face again, "Of course it's no problem."

Xu Jing said softly, "Thank you."

"You're welcome."

While picking up the coffee, Gu Ziqi slowly suppressed the smile on the corner of his mouth.

I heard that after Qiaoman got married, his uncle had been decadent for a long time, and he was in a daze.

After getting the news of her disappearance, my uncle went to the crash site without hesitation.

However, since then, my uncle has moved out of the Gu family's old house and rarely comes back.

Before he knew the truth of the matter, he could not casually reveal the situation of his uncle to Xu Jing.

After all, if it wasn't for his uncle to take care of him when he was young, how could he survive in the Gu family full of wolves, tigers and leopards?

Xu Jing's gaze has been on Gu Ziqi's body, and she has already seen his reaction in full view.

She took a sip of the strong coffee, the corners of her mouth slightly raised.

After leaving the coffee shop, Xu Jing went straight back to the company.

Xiao Yang said that a gentleman surnamed Qin came to visit and said that he had important matters to discuss with her.

Xu Jing went to the meeting room immediately and met this unexpected guest.

He wore a well-tailored high-end suit, rimmed gold-rimmed glasses, clean hair, and a handsome face, a typical image of elites.

Seeing Xu Jing come in, he was still sitting calmly, without the slightest intention to get up.

Xu Jing sat down in front of him, and asked first, "Mr. Qin came to visit suddenly, what's the matter?"

The man opposite looked Xu Jing up and down, and frowned slightly, "Are you Xu Jing?"

Xu Jing nodded.

"I'm Qin Zhe. According to seniority, Qin Ming should call me big brother."

Xu Jing smiled slightly, "Should I also call you that?"

Qin Zhe looked a little unhappy, "Miss Xu, we are not that close."

Xu Jing snorted, and the smile on her face continued, "Mr. Qin, you didn't come here just to tell me this, did you?"

After the last dance, she also learned something about the Qin family.

The Qin family is weak, and the head of the family died in a car accident with his wife in the early years, leaving only Mr. Qin and his grandson to depend on each other.

Ten years ago, Mr. Qin's grandson was kidnapped and never came back.

Mr. Qin has been sending people to look for him, but there is no news.

Now Mr. Qin is old and cannot continue to support the Qin family.

Therefore, he can only choose a suitable heir from the collateral line of the Qin family.

Among these offshoots, three are the most outstanding, and they are also candidates for the successor of the Qin family.

The leader is Qin Zhe, who is older and old-fashioned, but calm in doing things and quite talented in business.

The second is Qin Tian, ​​who acts unruly and has a lot of tricks, so he is not easy to mess with.

The last one was naturally Qin Ming, who was the youngest. He was taken back to the Qin family as an illegitimate child when he was 12 years old, and he rarely showed up on important occasions.

This is why many people are not familiar with him.

Since the three of them are competitors, their relationship will naturally not be harmonious.

Qin Zhe came here, there must be nothing good.

Just when Xu Jing was thinking in her heart, Qin Zhe spoke slowly.

"Qin Ming already has a suitable marriage partner, you should quit as soon as possible."

The smile on the corner of Xu Jing's mouth paused, and her eyes raised slightly, "Who are you lobbying for?"

Qin Zhe frowned, "I'm just advising you kindly, lest you end up hurting people and being sad."

Xu Jing sneered, "It's not up to others to comment on my relationship with him. Even if you are his nominal elder brother, it's too lenient."

Qin Zhe stared at her closely, "How much do you want? Is it 5000 million or [-] million?"

Xu Jing was slightly taken aback, but then realized that the other party wanted to buy herself off with money.

She felt angry and funny, so she deliberately said, "If Qin Ming becomes the head of the Qin family, I will become the head's wife. Do you think I can appreciate the price you gave?"

Qin Zhe's handsome face suddenly sank, "You really are a woman who puts interests first. How can you compare to one ten-thousandth of Xiaoya's like this?"

"Oh..." Xu Jing smiled slowly, "So, you came here for Zheng Suya."

"So what?" Qin Zhe glared at her, "Xiaoya's family background is clean, and she is gentle and kind, how can you not match her?"

Xu Jing looked at him with a half-smile, "Such a good woman, why don't you keep it for yourself, instead you want to match her with Qin Ming?"

Qin Zhe lowered his eyes, "The person she likes is Qin Ming. Since I want to protect her, I must help her."

Xu Jing moved closer to him and lowered her voice, "Are you willing? Don't fight for it, just give the person you like to others like this?"

Qin Zhe was taken aback for a moment, his expression obviously relaxed.

Seeing this, Xu Jing added another firewood to him.

"Don't you want to continue to be a coward and silently watch her go to other men?"

Just imagining that scene made Qin Zhe feel unbearable heartache.

He and Xiaoya grew up together and have an excellent relationship.

If Qin Ming hadn't appeared, they might have been engaged by now.

How could he be willing to give it to others who he had cared for in the palm of his hand since he was a child?

"No, I don't want her to be with someone else." Qin Zhe gritted his teeth.
