Jiang Jing seemed not to hear Fu Jinrong's question. She lowered her head and drank jasmine tea, with a jasmine petal into her mouth and chewing it carefully.

"So, there is nothing that you like?" Fu Jinrong looked at Jiang Jing curiously. Jiang Jing shook her head, "No, if it really means what I want right now..."

Jiang Jing paused, and Fu Jinrong looked at her with expectation. He wanted to know what Jiang Jing was really interested in.

"I want to find my sister, Jiang Ru." Then, Jiang Jing repeated it again, "The only thing I want now, or the thing I want to do is find her."

Fu Jinrong frowned involuntarily after hearing Jiang Jing's words. Looking at Jiang Jing, he didn't think Jiang Jing was lying, "Are you desperate to find her?"

Jiang jing nodded, looking at Fu Jinrong's eyes, very seriously, "Yes, no matter what the reason for her disappearance, I want to do everything I can to find her."

"Bang - bang - bang" When Fu Jinrong was about to say something, he heard someone knocking at the door of the private room. Fu Jinrong knew it was time to serve the dishes.

Sure enough, two waiters came over with cart to serve the dishes. After filling up the small square table, the dishes were all served.

"Mr. Fu, all the specialties in our store have been served to you. Do you need anything else?" The waiter asked politely. The manager had just said that the guests in this room must be treated well.

Fu Jinrong thought for a moment, looking at Jiang Jing sitting opposite to him, and then said to the waiter, "Let your chef make me a red date and lotus seed soup."

"Okay, please wait for a moment." Then, the two waiters continued to push the cart away.

"Red date and lotus seed soup? Why are you drinking this? Nourish your blood?" Jiang Jing asked curiously.

"Yes, exactly, but not for me."

"Who is that for..." As soon as Jiang Jing finished her words, she thought that only Fu Jinrong and herself were there. Since Fu Jinrong said it wasn't for himself, it must have been for her. When Jiang Jing thought about what happened last night, her cheeks couldn't help but turn red, and even her ears slowly turned red.

"That's enough of you." Jiang Jing was so angry that she started eating with her chopsticks without caring about Fu Jinrong. From morning till now, she hadn't eaten anything. It was already two o'clock in the afternoon, and Jiang Jing was really hungry.

Fu Jinrong didn't want to talk because they had just talked about Jiang Ru. As he ate the food, he was thinking about something. For a moment, the private room was silent, with only the sound of chopsticks from picking food.

Seeing that Jiang Jing picked the food less frequently, Fu Jinrong realized that Jiang Jing might be full soon, so he finally couldn't help but ask the question.

"Have you ever thought about what you would do if you found Jiang Ru one day and she came back?"

Jiang Jing was a little confused by Fu Jinrong's sudden question. She thought about it and said, "What does Ru's return have to do with me?"

Fu Jinrong smiled, "Have you forgotten that you married me as a substitute for Jiang Ru? Now, in the eyes of others, you are Jiang Ru. Everyone thinks that my wife is Jiang Ru. Not many people know about Jiang Jing."

After a pause, he added, "And you have to understand that once Jiang Ru comes back, she is my wife in-law. Have you ever thought about what you should do then?"

If it wasn't for Fu Jinrong's statement, Jiang Jing might have not thought about it, and even if she had thought about it before, she would have given herself a direct answer in her heart. That was, if Ru came back, she would definitely leave Fu Jinrong and return Jiang Ru's position to her completely.

But now, Jiang Jing was asking herself whether she could still leave so generously if Ru came back.

Jiang Jing knew that she wavered. She didn't know what she would do if she really faced such a situation. All she knew was that it seemed difficult for her to let go completely.

However, in the face of Fu Jinrong's question, Jiang Jing went against her heart. She pretended to be calm and said to Fu Jinrong sitting opposite to her, "If there is such a day, I will definitely let Ru return to the position that was supposed to hers."

"Her position? Ho ho, are you saying that if Jiang Ru comes back, you would leave me and let Jiang Ru be my wife?" Fu Jinrong's brows furrowed tightly.

He looked at Jiang Jing's expression, worrying that he would miss something. He did not believe that what he had done during this period of time was nothing to Jiang Jing?

Could Jiang Jing really have a heart of stone? No matter how hard he tried, he could not touch her heart?

"This should have belonged to Ru. I'm just a temporary replacement." Jiang Jing said this to herself cruelly. She knew she shouldn't have said this because it was against her heart, but thinking about her missing sister, she had no choice to do.

Fu Jinrong couldn't stand any more. He suddenly stood up and pushed the chair behind him, as if he hadn't heard what Jiang Jing had just said, "I'll see why the red date and lotus seed soup isn't ready. You eat first."

After that, Fu Jinrong resolutely left the private room.

Looking at Fu Jinrong's back, Jiang Jing was struggling with the ideas. She felt that it was wrong to say such things against her heart, but the reality made her have to say so.

She saw everything Fu Jinrong had done for her this morning. She knew that if it wasn't for her, Fu Jinrong would never have interfered with the the Jiang family.

Although she, Jiang Jing, may not be heavily emotional, she should have a grateful heart. Even if a stranger helped her in this way, she would probably convey her greatest gratitude to him, not to mention the person was her current husband.

However, she could not, really could not. The reality did not allow her to do so.

She lowered her head deeply, like an ostrich seeking security, shrinking into her broad feathers.

"Ding -" the chime of sudden incoming email of the phone interrupted Jiang Jing's thinking. Jiang Jing looked up and saw Fu Jinrong's phone that he had left on the dining table receiving a new e-mail.

Then came the call. Someone called. Jiang Jing originally wanted to ignore it, but she saw that the phone was ringing all the time. So she prepared to pick it up and told the people to call back when Fu Jinrong came back.

"Mr. Fu, I have sent you all the information you asked for about Su Muzhi by email. Please note to check it."
