29: Meeting Again

“It’s all our fault. Luckily, you didn’t study finance back then. Please don’t follow our old path in the future, okay?”

Tsukimi Rin forced a smile. “Nothing is easy to do. It’s okay, just let me know if you need my help, I’ll do my best.”

Her father hesitated, knowing that his daughter was just being polite. Unless it was the last resort, there was no need to say things she didn’t want to hear.

Until midnight, he was still being harassed by debt collectors and people wanting to withdraw their investments.

Her father smoked one cigarette after another.

Tsukimi Rin and her mother sat with him in the living room.

The room was filled with the smell of smoke, giving Tsukimi Rin a headache.

“Rin Rin, you…” Her father began.

Tsukimi Rin refilled her father’s tea. “Dad, I can try to borrow money again.”

“Can you still find anyone?” Her father was extremely desperate.

“I don’t know, the boat will right itself when it reaches the pier.”

“If, your ex-girlfriend…” Her father was embarrassed to mention it, but it was the wealthiest person he could think of around his daughter: “She’s very rich… She can help.”

Tsukimi Rin’s hand trembled.

Yes, that person was very rich, the largest shareholder of CW, CEO of the Hua district branch, and a leading enterprise in the East Asian financial circle.

Her father repeated again, “If you look for her, will she still respond to you?”

Her mother pushed her father reproachfully. “How can you sell your daughter like this? Have you forgotten how Rin Rin came back half a year ago!”

“If that woman didn’t listen to reason, Rin Rin wouldn’t have been able to come back at all.” Her father retorted.

It wasn’t the same thing at all.

If Qiu Shi hadn’t trusted Qiu Ci back then, Tsukimi Rin would never have been able to get out: “Don’t argue, I thought of someone, not that person.”

Tsukimi Rin went out and made a call.

She held the phone in her hand but didn’t know how to dial.

How did she not add Qiu Ci’s contact information?

She took out the key from her pocket, and the bell jingled.

Suddenly, she remembered the text message she received when she accidentally met Qiu Ci at the capital airport in China.

Using some simple technical means, she found the phone number that sent her the message.

Tsukimi Rin dialed it with trembling fingers.

The evening breeze stirred her hair, a little cold, it was autumn.

Half a minute later, someone answered, a cute boy’s voice: “Hello?”

Tsukimi Rin tried to recall, she had never met this person: “Hello, I would like to ask, do you know Qiu Ci? Qiu with the ear radical, Ci of porcelain.”

The little boy on the other end chuckled: “Miss Tsukimi, hello, I am Yuyang, we have met.”

Tsukimi Rin recalled: “You are from that club…”

“Yes, we met during the Spring Festival last year, but it wasn’t very pleasant.”

“I’m looking for Qiu Ci.” Tsukimi Rin emphasized again.

Yuyang was a little embarrassed: “Brother Ci, he… he hasn’t been doing well lately, he can’t contact anyone, Ai La instructed it.”

Tsukimi Rin’s pupils shrank suddenly, Qiu Shi dared to imprison Qiu Ci as well?

“I… I understand.”

After Tsukimi Rin hung up the phone, she fell into fear again.

Qiu Shi had not let her go and even extended her clutches to her younger brother.

Qiu Ci was imprisoned for half a year because of her!

Tsukimi Rin was covered in cold sweat. After struggling for a long time, she dialed Qiu Shi’s phone.

At that moment, Qiu Shi was dropped off at an apartment building.

She had a big fight with Little Jing tonight.

After the fight, this guy wanted to leave, but he was worried about Qiu Shi’s safety on the road.

He insisted on sending her home. Qiu Shi certainly couldn’t tell him her address, so she randomly gave a familiar apartment name.

Jing Yueming took a taxi with her and then walked home.

Qiu Shi was amused by this young man.

She called a driver to pick her up and took her back to the real residential area where she lived.

She also told a friend in this apartment to prepare a house for her.

Qiu Shi arrived home and turned on the light.

She went to the bedroom and saw that the phone screen on the bedside table was lit.

Only one person would contact this phone.

Qiu Shi quickly grabbed the phone.

For a moment, her heart beat faster. After answering, neither side dared to speak.

Qiu Shi called softly, “Rin Rin?”

“It’s me.” The woman’s cold voice had a sense of alienation.

Qiu Shi asked, “What’s wrong?” Are you missing me? She used to say that, but she probably wouldn’t say it now.

“What did you do to Qiu Ci?” Tsukimi Rin asked bluntly.

Qiu Shi was baffled: “He’s studying in France, are you looking for him?”

“Didn’t you imprison him?”

“Do I have so much free time?” Qiu Shi shook her head: “Why are you looking for him?”

Tsukimi Rin took a deep breath: “Did you cause my family’s stock to plummet?”

“I’ll say it again, I don’t have that much free time, so you’re looking for Qiu Ci to help? He can’t help with shit, wait.” Qiu Shi said, “I’ll come over and help you, don’t worry, I won’t pursue what happened before.”

Tsukimi Rin wanted to stop her, but Qiu Shi was afraid she would refuse, so she quickly hung up the phone.

She bought a plane ticket that night and flew to Tokyo.

Tsukimi Rin couldn’t sleep all night.

Her father knew that Qiu Shi was coming and hurriedly prepared food and drinks.

Qiu Shi was just like those years in long-distance relationships. After saying she was coming, she landed beside her within twenty hours.

In the early hours of the morning, she was so tired that she lay down on the sofa and fell asleep.

At dawn, Tsukimi Rin got up. The house, which had been busy all night, was quiet.

At six in the morning, Tsukimi Rin planned to go outside for some fresh air.

When she opened the door, besides the fallen leaves all over the ground.

There was also Qiu Shi wearing a scarf.

The two just looked at each other like that.

“How… how did you find me?” Tsukimi Rin was curious, she had planned to pick her up at the airport.

“It’s easy for me to find someone, Rin Rin, I apologize to you, I was impulsive before.” Qiu Shi had also calmed down a lot in the past six months.

She wasn’t used to not having Tsukimi Rin by her side, and many nights she held her phone, hoping to receive this woman’s call.

Tsukimi Rin shook her head: “Is your apology useful?”

“Whatever trouble you have, I’ll solve it for you, okay? We won’t break up, you don’t want children, that’s fine…” Qiu Shi was still a little disappointed.

Tsukimi Rin: “So, you can come to me at any time in the past six months?”

“Yes.” Tsukimi Rin opened the door for her.

Qiu Shi slowly walked into this house.

Tsukimi Rin’s parents had built a villa in the countryside.

It was relatively quiet.

The two didn’t know what to say and sat quietly on the sofa.

Her father quickly came downstairs.

He greeted Qiu Shi warmly.

Tsukimi Rin didn’t understand their business matters.

Basically, her father explained the difficulties, and Qiu Shi listened seriously and gave solutions.

“You can merge into CW, and you can still do it, I just need a reason to allocate funds to you. If someone is really messing with you, after joining CW, they will back down.”

Her father hesitated: “But will we be able to separate out at that time?”

Qiu Shi frowned: “It’s not easy, but in East Asia, I can basically have the final say. You can be my full agent in Japan, it’s almost the same as doing it yourself, and you’ll have CW as a backer.”

“Okay… then I’ll have to trouble President Qiu.” Her father said politely.
