Ye Tianxin sent Li Qingcang a text message instead. In her message, she explained in detail why she was going to see Lu Jijun in a while. She hoped he understood why she agreed to meet Lu Jijun.
Then, she called Jing Zhichen.
“Tianxin…”
When Jing Zhichen answered the phone, he was a little surprised. He didn’t expect Ye Tianxin to call him.
Time was running out, so Ye Tianxin couldn’t speak with Jing Zhichen for too long.
She told him directly, “Brother, I am going to meet someone now, but I am afraid that I will be in danger…”
Jing Zhichen’s brows furrowed when he heard Ye Tianxin’s words.
“Tianxin, if you think it’s dangerous, then don’t go. If it’s really important, could you wait for me? I can go there now.”
“Brother, we’ll be on the phone during my entire meeting with this person. If you sense danger, you can call the police.”
Ye Tianxin couldn’t tell Jing Zhichen the story in detail. She had to rush to the parking lot. This might be her only chance.
Jing Zhichen, who was in the office, took the car key and left.
“Tianxin, listen, don’t go. Stay where you are and wait for me.”
Ye Tianxin’s palms were sweating.
She could sense that Lu Jijun had set up a trap.
What could she do?
But knowing her father outweighed the consequences. She was determined to know despite walking in a trap.
Her curiosity won over logic and caution.
“Brother, don’t worry. I will be careful.”
Lu Jijun sat in the parking lot. His gaze was fixed on the entrance. It wasn’t until Ye Tianxin’s figure appeared that he heaved a sigh of relief.
Lu Jijun stretched out his hand from the car window and waved at Ye Tianxin.
“Tianxint, get in the car.”
Ye Tianxin stood beside the car door, and she said firmly, “No, I don’t want to get in the car. If you have something to say, say it now.”
“Tianxin, you don’t have to be afraid of me. I have never hurt you, haven’t I? You get in the car quickly. I can’t stay here for too long. Someone wants to kill me.”
Lu Jijun’s words made Ye Tianxin feel more uneasy.
“Lu Jijun, what are you playing at?”
“Tianxin, I really won’t hurt you. You are Linlang’s daughter. Get in the car. They are coming. If you don’t want to see him, I won’t force you.”
Lu Jijun knew that no one could resist this temptation, especially Ye Tianxin. She had never met her biological father. Knowing that he was still alive would spark hope in her heart.
At the moment, he only needed to tell Ye Tianxin he knew who her father was.
Could she still be as guarded as usual?
Ye Tianxin took a deep breath. She got in the car. She was already here, and she was still on a phone call with Jing Zhichen.
Ye Tianxin wasn’t that nervous…yet. She firmly believed that since they were in the imperial capital, Lu Jijun can’t do anything crazy.
“Fasten your seat belt and I will take you out.”
Lu Jijun started the car and drove slowly out of the hospital’s parking lot.
The air conditioner was turned on, and the cool breeze filled the car.
“Want to listen to songs?” Lu Jijun offered.
Ye Tianxin shook her head. She looked at the side profile of Lu Jijun, the middle-aged man who she had called father for several years in her previous life.
“Lu Jijun, what do you like about my mother?”
“You mean Linlang?”
As soon as Ye Linlang was mentioned, Lu Jijun’s eyes gradually turned thoughtful, and his voice became soft and full of emotions.
