Very excellent?
Maybe.
Ye Tianfan nodded, standing beside Yao Lingshan, allowing the sea breeze to blow past, and the two fell into silence. Yao Lingshan did not speak again.
And Ye Tianfan also did not know what to say, feeling that in this situation, no matter what he said, it would seem so redundant.
Facing the sea breeze, Yao Lingshan eventually cried, tears streaked down her cheeks silently. This was a woman's compromise to another woman. Some things didn't need to be overly expressed, as saying more wouldn't mean much.
Ye Tianfan lit a cigarette and smoked on his own. He didn't reach out to wipe away Yao Lingshan's tears, just quietly watched her, occasionally sighing inwardly.
Women, they are always complex. If there were a formula to calculate a woman's thoughts or the degree of her sadness...
Even if it required a diploma from Tsinghua, Ye Tianfan would strive desperately to get one.
Unfortunately, such a thing doesn't exist in this world. The sea breeze wailed and hastened the burning of the cigarette. Soon, the cigarette in Ye Tianfan's hand was just a butt.
"Let's go, the wind is strong here, let's go back to the lounge." Ye Tianfan threw away the cigarette and patted Yao Lingshan's shoulder.
Yao Lingshan nodded lightly, still without much change in her emotions, turned around, and walked towards the lounge.
The wordless situation between them made it most awkward. Until they both returned to the lounge, this awkward situation did not change at all.
In the lounge, Ren Ningyue was holding an old magazine, reading to pass the time, and Qin Hu was having an on-and-off conversation with Liu Moyu.
Being from a fisherman's family, Liu Moyu seemed to know a lot about the sea, speaking eloquently with a grand air of pointing out the rivers and mountains, while Qin Hu listened with keen interest, nodding occasionally, feigning an understanding look.
This was generally the situation in the lounge. Ye Tianfan sat on the sofa, closing his eyes to rest, and occasionally glanced at Yao Lingshan.
Yao Lingshan, on the other hand, kept a frown and a thoughtful look, not having said a word since entering the lounge.
In the lounge, it was only Liu Moyu talking as if performing a monologue, but the atmosphere did not change until the ship docked, and Yao Lingshan still hadn't spoken a word.
"I will head back first. We will investigate the forces behind the Kowloon Cup during this period. You should quickly handle your personal issues and come to the base once."
While speaking, Ren Ningyue couldn't help looking at Yao Lingshan, it seemed this matter hit her hard.
"Okay, thank you." Ye Tianfan expressed his gratitude, watching as Ren Ningyue left with Qin Hu and Liu Moyu while Yao Lingshan remained silent.
Ye Tianfan was also full of helplessness, the once lively and adorable Yao Lingshan suddenly became silent, and it's all related to him.
"Let's go." Yao Lingshan turned her head, looking at Ye Tianfan.
"Where to?" Ye Tianfan asked.
"Aren't you going to let me meet Qin Ruomeng?" Yao Lingshan's tone was full of grievance, though she was asking Ye Tianfan, the meaning was clear, she was determined to meet Qin Ruomeng.
Ye Tianfan clearly understood Yao Lingshan's intent as well; she was determined to meet Qin Ruomeng, but it was only a matter of how they would meet. If he agreed and directly took Yao Lingshan to meet Qin Ruomeng, it might be more dignified.
"Then let's go."
Ye Tianfan nodded in agreement, then took out his phone to call Ji Liancheng.
The dock where Yao Family's boat stopped was the dock in the Lingbei Trade Zone of the Qin Family, and the closest person was Ji Liancheng.
Soon, Ji Liancheng arrived at the dock by car, and upon seeing Ye Tianfan, he quickly said, "Mr. Ye, where have you been? Miss Qin was so worried."
"Oh? Where is she now?" Ye Tianfan asked.
"She should be at home."
"Let's go home."
With that, Ye Tianfan opened the car door and gestured to Yao Lingshan to get in first.
At this moment, Ji Liancheng, standing to the side, seeing Ye Tianfan inviting a stranger woman into the car first, was full of doubt but didn't ask further.
As a business elite, Ji Liancheng understood some of the games in the business world well, especially knowing what not to ask. He mastered this very well.
Even if Ye Tianfan had an affair outside, it was none of his business.
However, Ye Tianfan's recent disappearance indeed made Qin Ruomeng extremely anxious, almost driving her crazy, which made everyone in the Qin Group apprehensive. Now that Ye Tianfan finally returned, perhaps the nightmare was over.
Soon Ji Liancheng drove to the front of the Qin Villa: "Mr. Ye, do you need anything else...?"
Ye Tianfan waved his hand, "No need, you can go back."
"Oh, okay."
Ji Liancheng felt relieved, watching Yao Lingshan get off the car, her expression clearly hostile, guessing that Ye Tianfan's troubles might flare up again. To avoid getting into trouble, it was best to leave early.
Yet, just as Ji Liancheng was about to drive away, Ye Tianfan suddenly turned around and asked, "By the way, how's your father recently?"
Ji Liancheng paused slightly, replying, "Not bad, he's in good health."
"Hmm, have him wait for me at my bar." Ye Tianfan said directly.
"Now?" Ji Liancheng knew Ye Tianfan had opened a small bar, but since the bar was relatively remote, why would he have his father wait there?
"Yes, right now."
Although Ji Liancheng wasn't sure what Ye Tianfan was up to, since he had instructed, there must be something important: "Okay, I will contact my father and have him go now."
"Hmm."
Ye Tianfan nodded, turned and walked towards the villa, and Yao Lingshan followed silently.
Opening the villa door, Qin Ruomeng was sitting on the sofa in the living room with a furious face, intolerant of Ye Tianfan's adventurous actions!
She had explicitly said before that the cargo ship could refrain from going out to sea, but absolutely must not allow Ye Tianfan to board and take risks. Yet he did just that, and even disappeared!
When Qin Ruomeng went to investigate, she found that the cargo ship had deviated from its original course and disappeared without a trace.
"Ye Tianfan! Do you know how worried I am about you!" Qin Ruomeng slammed the table in anger, ready to vent her pent-up fury, but suddenly noticed that there was another woman behind Ye Tianfan, someone she also knew: his childhood friend, Yao Lingshan!
What's going on?
Qin Ruomeng paused slightly, her face suddenly becoming icy.
