Chapter 63: Chapter 63 Ignored by Her_1

"Since that is the case, why did you end up like this?" asked Nuan.

Li Longtao responded, "When I resigned, I had a stable job. If I worked hard, I wouldn’t have to worry about my livelihood for the rest of my life. But... My goal wasn’t just that. I didn’t want to sell something I put all my heart into to another company just like that. That’s why I hesitated. Actually, I hoped I could secure investment and get through the current difficulties... Because I have confidence in my game. Its future has limitless potential..."

When he spoke of this, his eyes shone brightly.

This was someone with a dream.

He refused to accept mediocrity and thus gave up a stable life.

His gaze was a bit helpless. "It’s just that this world is really too cruel. Besides capability, you also need opportunities."

After finishing his story and drinking the coffee Nuan had given him, he asked Ji Yunhuan for her phone number and then left.

Nuan was a bit worried about Ji Yunhuan. "How could you just casually give your contact information to someone else?"

Ji Yunhuan smiled, "His eyes told me he wasn’t lying. Plus, even in such dire straits, he wouldn’t give up on his dreams. Someone like that, I believe he will succeed."

Nuan looked at her and sighed helplessly, "True, who would have thought Gu Yubai’s fiancée would come to work in my restaurant?"

After what happened with Ji Yunhuan, nothing in this world seemed surprising anymore.

After leaving the restaurant, Ji Yunhuan drove and noticed Li Longtao staring blankly at a shop window by the roadside; he seemed still torn, deciding what to do.

To give up or not to give up...

Ji Yunhuan stopped her car, honked, "Mr. Li."

He turned to look at her, "Ms. Ji!"

"Shall we talk?"

They went to a park and sat on a wooden bench. Ji Yunhuan looked at him, "Actually, I quite support your idea. Rather than selling your beloved creation cheaply to another company, it’s better to keep it in your hands."

"But I don’t have any money now... If I keep it, it’s no different than garbage."

"Make an estimate for me. Let me see how much you need later. I’ll help you figure it out."

Li Longtao looked at her in disbelief, "Ms. Ji, are you serious?"

"Do I look like I’m joking? But... once it’s successful, I want half of your company’s shares." This essentially meant she was securing investment for him.

After all, Qi Cheng had money; he didn’t care about this small amount.

She was just treating it as a loan to him. She would repay him once she made money.

"Don’t say half, I’d be willing to give you all of the company shares as long as I can make my game myself," he said, essentially giving her a lifeline at the most critical moment. He also had great confidence in his game.

Seeing his excitement, Ji Yunhuan couldn’t help but laugh, "Mr. Li, your temperament doesn’t seem as steady as your appearance suggests. If you really give me the entire company, you might as well sell it to another company directly!"

Li Longtao was a bit embarrassed, "I was just too happy."

"That’s good. I’ll have my lawyer contact you. We’ll discuss the details later!" She sized up his disheveled appearance, "Next time I see you, Mr. Li, don’t look like this again. You represent the face of a company, right?"

"I understand." He nodded.

"Then I’ll be leaving."

Ji Yunhuan checked the time.

Li Longtao saw her off. When she was about to get in her car, he called out, "Ms. Ji."

"Yes?"

"Why do you believe in me? Almost no one is willing to take the risk to invest in me..."

Ji Yunhuan looked at him and smiled, "I only believe in my own judgment."

After all, she had made enough losses in business before.

One more loss wouldn’t make a difference.

The next day, Ji Yunhuan contacted Lawyer Liu, who used to work for the Ji Family. She mortgaged two villas that Qi Cheng had transferred to her name and arranged for him to organize the necessary contracts.

Lawyer Liu had a deep friendship with her father, so she felt at ease about the contract matters.

It was a few days later when all matters with Li Longtao were settled.

That night, Ji Yunhuan returned home and finally saw Qi Cheng appear.

He wore a suit but no tie, looking almost the same as before, with no visible changes.

Qi Cheng was in the living room, arranging something with the female housekeeper.

The female housekeeper saw Ji Yunhuan come in, "Ma’am, you’re back?"

"Hmm." Ji Yunhuan responded, preparing to go upstairs.

Her cold attitude made Qi Cheng frown. He called out, "Ji Yunhuan."

Ji Yunhuan stopped and looked at him. It was as if she had returned to the early days of their relationship; there wasn’t a trace of warmth on her face, "Mr. Qi, do you need something?"

It had only been a few days, and her address for him had changed from Qi Cheng back to Mr. Qi.

Qi Cheng didn’t understand what she was upset about, "Where did you go? Why did you come back so late?"

It was almost nine o’clock.

"I was working."

She wasn’t lying; these days, she had indeed been going to the studio Qi Cheng had prepared for her and getting to know the people there.

She had dealt with the matters concerning Li Longtao in her spare time.

She didn’t want Qi Cheng to know all her details, so this was done secretly.

Because of her father’s incident, she clearly understood that relying too much on someone would only lead to a tragic downfall when abandoned. The most trustworthy person in this world was still herself.

Perhaps Qi Cheng also knew she had been at the studio these days, so he didn’t question further.

Ji Yunhuan glanced at him, "If there’s nothing else, I’ll go up."

Qi Cheng stayed silent, assuming he agreed, and Ji Yunhuan entered the elevator.

Qi Cheng sat on the sofa, staring at her cold figure, feeling something was off about her.

"Was she feeling unwell these days?" Qi Cheng asked.

"Sir, do you mean madam has been acting a bit strange?" The female housekeeper also thought Ji Yunhuan was unusual, "Last time, the wedding dress she personally designed arrived, and she didn’t even try it; she just asked me to put it away."

The female housekeeper didn’t know it was designed by Qi Cheng and thought it was Ji Yunhuan’s creation.

Hearing this, Qi Cheng’s expression darkened.

The wedding dress was his gift to her, yet she treated it this way?

His mood was utterly terrible, having his sincere gift treated this poorly.

Ji Yunhuan had just finished showering when she saw the wedding dress from last time appear in the bedroom, with Qi Cheng smoking and watching her.

No matter his intentions, after a long day, Ji Yunhuan felt utterly exhausted. Remembering his previous threat to make her sleep on the sofa, she directly moved the blankets from the bed to the couch and lay down.

To her, Qi Cheng seemed like an invisible man, which irritated Qi Cheng even more. He walked over, "Ji Yunhuan, what do you mean by this?"

She poked her head out from the blanket, revealing her small face, "What’s wrong?"
