Chapter 1945: Chapter 2031: Guilt

Since he kept his phone off while on the plane, he didn’t know whether Qin Mingyue saw the message. When he turned on his phone, he saw over fifty missed calls, leaving him speechless.

"What the heck, is he out of his mind? I’ve already told him I’m coming to see you. I can’t possibly take a train over here, right?"

Su Xuan looked at over thirty missed calls and knew it wasn’t insanity; it was excessive care that made him persistently call despite knowing the calls probably wouldn’t connect. Thinking of this, Su Xuan felt a bit guilty, realizing he had wronged too many women in his lifetime.

The phone rang again. It was Qin Mingyue calling. Shui Lingling looked at Su Xuan and said,

"I feel a bit scared to answer. Do you think he’ll say I’m not loyal enough? I actually wanted to call him back then, but he told me beforehand that he had an important meeting today, so I just sent a text instead!"

"You’d better answer it. I guess he’s genuinely anxious!"

Su Xuan said weakly, and Shui Lingling, feeling a bit embarrassed, finally picked up the call.

"Shui Lingling, what on earth are you doing? Where are you? I’m downstairs at your place, come out and see me!"

Qin Mingyue said anxiously. Shui Lingling might never know how excited Qin Mingyue was when he saw that message.

The news of Su Xuan’s death came a year and a half ago when Liu Ruobing went to audit at the Emperor Hotel in Imperial Capital and met Qin Mingyue. Qin Mingyue knew Liu Ruobing and that she was Su Xuan’s woman. When he heard about Su Xuan’s death, he didn’t react much, just smiled foolishly, thinking it impossible.

But after returning home, he actually cried himself to sleep in the bathroom. The days with Su Xuan weren’t long, but Su Xuan had already taken root in his heart. Even though they hardly spent much time together, having someone to care about made him feel good, secure.

During that period, Qin Mingyue initially intended to shift his work focus to where Su Xuan thrived, either with Su Xuan or Honghai, because he knew those were Su Xuan’s real bases. But he never imagined such a melodramatic twist would occur, catching him off guard completely!

After Su Xuan’s death, his spirit died too. In the year and a half that followed, there were many pursuers, but Qin Mingyue coldly rejected all, focusing solely on work and nothing else, considering it his entire world!

Because Shui Lingling was also in Subei, they became close confidantes thanks to Su Xuan’s connection. Shui Lingling, too, was almost obsessed with Su Xuan’s love, so the two sisters empathized with each other and often teased one another.

Today, he had an important meeting. After a year and a half of development, he was no longer just a little law firm but had opened a large law firm with hundreds of people. In the middle of the meeting, he received a text message from Shui Lingling. Even though she knew he had a meeting, and it piqued his curiosity, he didn’t immediately read the message!

But the content of Shui Lingling’s message was actually Su Xuan isn’t dead. I’ve found news about him. I miss him. I’m going to look for him. Do you want to come along?"

During the meeting break, he headed to the restroom to check the message the girl had sent him, almost dropping his phone when he saw the content.

He couldn’t stop thinking about the message in his mind. When he saw the words saying Su Xuan isn’t dead, tears started falling like broken beads, wanting to shout, but no sound came out.

He immediately started making phone calls, but by then, Shui Lingling had already boarded the plane, so her phone was off. For the next three hours, he was restless, constantly calling, unsure if Shui Lingling was lying to him or if it was true! He even worried that Shui Lingling might do something rash!

Because, jokingly, he used to say that when he first heard Su Xuan was gone, he wanted to follow him several times!

So he drove straight to her house, but Shui Lingling’s family wasn’t home. Just as he got through to the call, he hastily asked!

"I’m in Imperial Capital!"

Shui Lingling said weakly.

"Why did you go to the Imperial Capital? What did you mean by that message? Do you really have news about him? How could that be possible? Didn’t they say he was already..."

"Uh... one of my subordinates ran into him. I just found out not long ago. He’s really not dead. That rascal, I’ve already kicked him a few times for you. Don’t worry, making us sisters cry so much, I’ll definitely take him down tonight!"

Shui Lingling said mischievously, while Su Xuan felt a little embarrassed and awkward on the side!

"Ahem... sorry, Mingyue, I kept saying I’d visit you guys, but I was caught up with things here!"

Su Xuan scratched his head, a bit embarrassed. Thinking having too many women really isn’t good, it’s just hard to manage, which is the downfall of being so unrestrained. Now thinking back, it feels rather tragic.

And at that moment, hearing Su Xuan’s voice, Qin Mingyue was already sobbing uncontrollably. He was really alive, he was really alive!

While wiping away his tears, he laughed foolishly, overwhelmed by an unprecedented warmth, knowing he was still alive, this felt so good!

"You rascal, even a desert couldn’t kill you. Next time, if you have the guts, head to the Middle East and get beaten to death instead, and don’t come back!"

Qin Mingyue said while crying.

Su Xuan felt moved; the more love there was, the more blame there was. The news of the desert accident was basically confirmed, who could have imagined he was just trapped there!

"Ahem... well, it’s a long story!"

Su Xuan rubbed his nose, feeling a bit embarrassed.

Even during the desert accident, he didn’t know if he’d survive, only that being alive now was truly a blessing from above.
