Chapter 1049 Keep an eye on her
Qin Xuan turned his face away in annoyance: "What's different?"
Ignoring his resistance, Song Yunchen continued calmly, "In the past, when a woman left, she would just leave and turn around and hug a new one to continue having fun. But what about this time? You're sitting here drinking alone, getting angry just because someone mentioned it. Since you like her, then settle down. Stop thinking about your three-month theory. True love won't stand still for you forever. When you've really lost her completely, you'll know how to regret it."
Qin Xuan frowned: "Who told you I regretted it?"
Looking at Qin Xuan's forced composure, Song Yunchen suddenly laughed, a laugh that carried a hint of knowing everything. He pointed at Qin Xuan with his finger: "Your stinky face tells me."
Qin Xuan's cheek twitched slightly, his expression one of embarrassment and anger at being exposed, or rather, of being stung by the naked truth and feeling utterly ashamed.
He stood up abruptly and glared at Song Yunchen fiercely: "Drink it yourself, I'm leaving."
After saying that, he grabbed the car keys on the table and strode away from the booth without looking back.
Song Yunchen watched his figure disappear into the bar, shook his head, and finished his drink alone.
It seems this playboy has truly fallen from grace this time, though he himself is unwilling to admit it.
......
On his way back, Qin Xuan dialed a number.
"Find out where Bai Tutu went."
He narrowed his eyes and said, "Hurry up, I want to know as soon as possible."
The subordinate on the other end responded with a "Yes," then hung up and went to carry out his duties.
Qin Xuan's phone call was less about finding her and more about confirming something, or rather, about grasping at something to calm the uncontrollable restlessness in his heart.
Back in the quiet villa, the omnipresent scent of gardenias and her own presence seemed even stronger than before.
He irritably loosened his tie, and had barely sat down on the sofa when his subordinate called back, extremely efficiently.
"Young Master Qin, we've found out. After leaving the villa, Miss Bai took a taxi directly to the airport, bought a ticket for the next available flight to Nancheng, and has already returned to her hometown overnight."
South City... Qin Xuan was not surprised by this information.
When he decided to have Bai Tutu follow him, he had someone conduct a simple investigation into her background.
She is not a native of Beijing; her family is from a small city in the south, and she came to Beijing to study at university.
School is out for break now, so it's normal for her to go home.
He casually asked again, his tone sounding nonchalant: "When is she coming back?"
The subordinate on the other end of the phone paused, seemingly verifying more information, before cautiously replying, "Well... I'm not entirely sure. However, based on some information I've gathered since then, Miss Bai probably won't be returning to the capital."
Qin Xuan's brows furrowed instantly. "Why? Explain yourself."
The subordinate dared not delay and immediately reported the information he had found in detail: "I found that Miss Bai Tutu had excellent grades during her time at school. Two months ago, she had already completed all her credits ahead of schedule and obtained her graduation certificate from Dijing University. At the same time, she also applied for a postgraduate place at a top university abroad and has successfully received an admission notice."
"So... in another month, she will be going abroad to study."
Qin Xuan's brows furrowed into a knot.
Is that true? How come he didn't know anything about it?
For the past three months, apart from taking her out to eat, drink, and have fun to satisfy his own desires, he seemed to have never really cared about what she was doing, what she was thinking, or what her plans were.
The subordinate continued, "Originally, the cost of studying abroad was a considerable burden for her, and she seemed to be still troubled by it, but..."
The subordinate paused subtly for a moment, then said, "Having followed you for the past three months, Young Master Qin, with your generosity, I presume this problem has been resolved."
Isn't that the solution? He just gave her five million.
It's not only enough to cover the cost of studying abroad, but it's even more than enough.
Qin Xuan laughed in anger, "Ha...so I, Qin Xuan, have been doing charity work and being used as a stepping stone for the past three months?"
He sponsored a female college student to complete her studies and also provided start-up funds for her to study abroad.
It's really a big joke in the world!
"Okay." He hung up the phone impatiently.
Qin Xuan threw his phone heavily onto the sofa, leaned back against the sofa, and closed his eyes.
The villa was eerily quiet, with only his slightly heavy breathing as the only sound.
It turns out that the seemingly naive and innocent little white rabbit who depended on him had already planned a clear future for itself, and quietly used the money he provided to pave the way to a wider world.
And here he is, feeling guilty and frustrated about his heartless breakup.
It's really... ridiculous.
He couldn't help but mutter another curse: "You heartless little brat, huh, you've really grown bold, daring to secretly plan your escape? Without even saying goodbye, you've gotten too big for your britches!"
The more he thought about it, the more frustrated he felt.
Damn it! He wasn't even tired of her yet, so what right did she have to decide to leave on her own? And so decisively, heading off towards her bright future?
Thinking this, he almost immediately picked up his phone again and sent a message to his subordinate, his tone commanding: "Keep an eye on her. Pay close attention to her movements. If she behaves strangely, tell me immediately."
The subordinate quickly replied: "Yes, Young Master Qin."
For the next three days, Qin Xuan unusually became "busy".
The usually idle and pleasure-seeking young master Qin surprisingly took the initiative to contact several clients to discuss business, inspected several bars and clubs under his name, inquired about their performance, and even began to care about some investment projects that he had never paid attention to before.
He called this sudden surge of motivation and abnormal excess of energy a withdrawal reaction.
Just like the temporary physical and psychological discomfort that occurs when breaking a habit or dependency.
He told himself that once he fully adapted to a life without feeling wasted, and once everything got back on track, this feeling of restlessness and emptiness would naturally disappear.
However, the effect of this self-numbing seems to be limited.
On the fourth day, a message came from his subordinate: "Young Master Qin, Miss Bai left her hometown today. Judging from her itinerary, she's preparing to board a ship."
Upon seeing the message, Qin Xuan frowned and immediately dialed the number: "Boarding the ship? Where is she going?"
The subordinate reported: "Miss Bai has booked a luxury cruise package, which includes an eleven-day tour of Europe. It departs today."
An 11-day European tour? A luxury cruise?
Qin Xuan scoffed, his disdain resurfacing.
As expected of a naive young girl, she couldn't wait to broaden her horizons after receiving the money from him.
He suppressed the inexplicable displeasure in his heart and instructed over the phone: "You, find a way to follow her and keep an eye on her secretly, see what she does."
Although the subordinate didn't understand why his boss was so obsessed with an ex-girlfriend he had broken up with, he still replied, "Yes, Young Master Qin."
