You Are My Unforgettable Love

Was she interested?

Of course she was interested.

Lot held significance to her past with Zi Chuan!

If she could leave a trace of herself in Lot, it would be a very meaningful thing to her.

However…

If she were to agree to the endorsement deal, wouldn’t that mean having to show her face?

And if she showed her face, Shen Liangchuan would be able to locate her.

At this thought, she bit her lip and agonized over it for a moment. Then she replied, “I’m sorry, I’m not interested.”

“The endorsement deal is worth a million dollars, would even this not interest you?”

“I’m sorry.”

“Well then, why don’t I give you a day to reconsider? Please give it a bit more thought.”

“Ok.”

–

After hanging up, Qiao Lian agonized over it and hesitated.

The endorsement fee was a million dollars and this money would come in handy for her delivery months down the road. And the money would provide some stability for her and her child for a few years.

The birth and confinement period¹ would both require a significant amount of money.

Qiao Lian frowned.

As she contemplated this, her cell phone rang again.

The moment she picked up the call, an unfamiliar voice came through, “Ms. Qiao, I’ve found the person you’re looking for.”

Found?

Qiao Lian’s eyes lit up and she sprang up from her seat.

If she wanted to clear her parents’ names, she would have to track down the company staff from back then.

She remembered that the employee in charge of finance in her parents’ company at that time had been a man with the surname Li. So she had sought the help of a private investigator to do the search.

Staring ahead, she asked, “Where is he?”

“After what happened at that time, he and his family all moved to Hainan.”

Qiao Lian said with swift decisiveness, “Well then, track him down!”

The caller hesitated for a moment.

Qiao Lian asked, “What’s the matter?”

“Ms. Qiao, here’s the thing. Initially, we agreed that I would help you search for the person for 100 000, but now it seems like this person may be outside Suzhou, and I have to go to Hainan. The initial fee is not enough.”

“We can negotiate the fees. Name your price.”

“500 000.”

Qiao Lian was stunned and replied, “Why so high?”

“Ms. Qiao, Hainan is not our territory. If we go, we will need to prepare things to go there. Besides, going to Hainan to search for a person can easily take half a month. We have to pay for food and accommodation. This price is not really high.”

Qiao Lian sighed and bit her lip. After a moment, she said, “Fine, but I don’t have that much money on hand. Can I owe you for now and pay you in two weeks?”

“Sure.”

After hanging up, Qiao Lian lay back on the bed.

There was no way she could make a trip all the way to Hainan to search for a person. She had no other choice but to depend on someone to do the job.

But now, where was she going to find the 500 000?

She turned around in bed. Suddenly, as though realizing something, she picked up her cell phone. She dialed the number of the person who had called her earlier on. “Hello, how are you? About the Lot add endorsement deal, I’ll accept it!”

She came to the conclusion that, since she had chosen to be a caster, she couldn’t be afraid of Shen Liangchuan finding her.

And if he did find her, so what?

Even if he knew that she was in Suzhou, he wouldn’t come looking for her, would he?

If that were the case, why would she make things difficult for herself?

When the person heard this, he immediately said, “Great! That’s great! I heard that they were also looking for a male spokesperson—and it might be an important person. At the moment we don’t know who that is, but since you’ve agreed, can you come over tomorrow? We need to sign the contract. I’ll text you the address.”

Qiao Lian agreed and said, “Ok.”
