Falling in Love With My Arranged-Marriage Husband-Chapter 94 - 69: Can you check on Ji Sang for me?

Chapter 94: Chapter 69: Can you check on Ji Sang for me?

After the media interview was over, the next segment was interacting with the children from the orphanage. Ji Sang had recovered her energy, so she stood up and followed Lu Ming out.

A middle-aged man, whose presence Yi Feng hadn’t noticed until then, stood by his side, clad in a dark, stiff suit. His expression was so severe that even from Ji Sang’s angle, she could feel his detachment.

Lu Ming paused, his eyes narrowing slightly.

“That’s Chairman Yi’s executive assistant. If I’m not mistaken, he’s likely here to supervise Yi Feng.”

“Supervise?”

Ji Sang was surprised by Lu Ming’s choice of words. Shouldn’t a father’s capable assistant be there to help his son? Why would he be there to supervise?

Lu Ming crossed his arms over his chest, his tone light and indifferent.

“I heard that Chairman Yi disagreed with this project. It was only through Yi Feng’s ultimatum of rejecting his heirship that he acquired it. Although there are other offspring in the Yi Family, it’s undeniable that Yi Feng is the prime candidate for the heirship. No wonder Chairman Yi compromised, even allowing something he’s so averse to be challenged by Yi Feng.”

Ji Sang was increasingly confused, her brows furrowing deeply.

“Why would Chairman Yi be averse to the orphanage project?”

Lu Ming’s smile faded a bit.

“That I don’t know. It’s a matter from many years ago, with very few in the know. And those who know….”

Naturally, had no opportunity to spell it out.

Although Lu Ming had relied on his own efforts to reach his current position, he still had his methods. He knew that some matters could be investigated, while others… should not be pursued.

It was not merely a matter of having nowhere to start.

Back then, even that person hadn’t figured it out, and moreover…

Lu Ming’s expression grew somber; he stopped his narration there, his eyebrows slightly raised.

“Don’t overthink it; just focus on being a good photographer.”

Ji Sang’s brows twitched, and she suddenly asked,

“Weren’t you the one who asked before if I was interested in becoming a journalist?”

Why the sudden change of heart now?

Lu Ming just patted her shoulder.

Initially, he had been impressed by Ji Sang’s remarkable observational skills and her innocent yet fervent heart, so he had casually mentioned it. But after reconsidering it later, he realized that, perhaps, he had his biases. Objectively speaking, why should Ji Sang take on a job that was exhausting and dangerous, with even the slightest inadvertence posing a risk to life?

This was fine as it was.

“Alright, I’ve got things to handle at the station, so I must go. You… are you headed back with Mr. Yi?”

“Sure, Vice Director, you go ahead.”

Lu Ming raised his eyebrows.

“Okay.”

He took a few steps but then turned back, leaning in to whisper in her ear,

“Don’t talk too much with that executive assistant.”

Ji Sang was startled and didn’t get the chance to ask before Lu Ming strode away, leaving only his retreating figure.

Yi Feng just so happened to see the moment Lu Ming whispered in Ji Sang’s ear. His dark eyes grew heavy, while beside him, Xiao Su paused, following his gaze to Ji Sang’s face, his eagle-like eyes narrowing slightly.

“Little President Yi, who is she?” he asked.

Hearing this, Yi Feng abruptly withdrew his gaze and coldly walked in the direction opposite to Ji Sang.

“I don’t know.”

Xiao Su didn’t immediately follow but instead cast another deep look at Ji Sang.

If he didn’t see it wrong, did Yi Feng leave right after finishing his opening remark just for that woman?

His gaze shifted downward, landing on the SLR camera in Ji Sang’s hands, and Xiao Su’s eyebrows raised slightly.

Yi Feng insisted on starting this project, and although originally planning to give up the television station collaboration, he became incredibly determined to collaborate with the station after a visit there.

If he wasn’t wrong, Yi Feng must have been there this morning to pick up this woman, right?

Interesting.

Xiao Su leisurely withdrew his gaze and finally caught up with Yi Feng.

Yi Feng was having a great time with the children from the orphanage, a stark contrast to his demeanor during the opening, his previously stern face now breaking into a smile.

Looking at him, he seemed completely like a big boy.

But that’s how it should be; after all, he’s only twenty-two.

For some reason, Ji Sang suddenly felt a pang of heartache for Yi Feng. This inexplicable emotion caused Ji Sang a bit of panic.

This feeling made her further convinced that what happened in her dreams had truly occurred in the past.

She was afraid that the incident from the past wasn’t that simple.

As for her wanting to investigate this matter… it was probably extremely difficult.

Ji Sang took a deep breath, trying to dispel the sudden melancholy, lifted her camera, and captured the scene of Yi Feng playing and laughing with the children.

This time, the Yi Group brought a lot of supplies.

Snacks, toys, books, and various painting materials.

But all of the children abandoned these things and ran to Yi Feng, calling him “big brother” one by one.

In his left hand, Yi Feng was holding one child, and with his right hand, he led another, his suit that was originally neat and tidy became wrinkled from the little hands pulling at it.

This scene also surprised the media.

They thought Yi Feng was just making an appearance, but unexpectedly, he was able to bond with the children.

Xiao Su raised an eyebrow without saying a word and walked inside the orphanage.

Yi Feng, who had been playing with the children, suddenly started walking toward Ji Sang with them. As Ji Sang took a surprised step back, Yi Feng said in a low voice,

“Sister Ah Shang, I might not be able to take you later.”

After speaking, he glanced at Ji Sang with eyes full of apology and before Xiao Su returned, he led the children away.

Helplessness.

That was the first term that came to Ji Sang’s mind.

Combined with what Lu Ming had said, Yi Feng could have had better options, even the power to take the initiative in the Yi Family because the position of heir was undoubtedly his.

However, for the sake of the orphanage project, he completely lost this advantage, was even subject to his father’s control, and was forced to accept the supervision of the chairman’s assistant.

No, perhaps it should be described as surveillance.

This big boy, for a bit of warmth from his childhood, endured so much, yet she couldn’t remember anything.

For the first time, Ji Sang felt some hatred towards herself for forgetting the past.

Feeling much heavier, Ji Sang didn’t continue to take pictures but wandered aimlessly around the orphanage.

This orphanage was located on the outskirts of S City; the buildings were one to two-story houses, and their outer walls seemed to have been freshly repainted, most likely from the support of the Yi Group.

Because it was in the outskirts, the air was significantly better than the city center, and in addition to the scenery being different from the modern splendor of skyscrapers, there was an added touch of nature. Ji Sang had inadvertently made her way to the back yard of the orphanage.

Just as she was about to step over, Ji Sang suddenly spotted that assistant inside the window on the phone and almost instantly, Ji Sang instinctively crouched down.

And then she heard,

“Do me a favor and check someone out, from the television station, Ji Sang, the more detailed, the better.”
